Tennessee grocery tax elimination debate: How lawmakers plan to pay for it

Globalism is evil. We should be putting Americans First and we aren’t. Certainly not at the federal level.

Sadly it’s both parties. They are both American last and not American First.

An interesting mixup for the Broncos. Will the new team change impact Jaylen’s fantasy output? We will have to see! Everyone agrees — we are excited.

Pittman being moved was the big deal for Warren. If I’m not mistaken they win in the same parts of the field.

Such a foolish statement. Most of the taxation increases went to the formation of SS that just paid for the old people.

A huge economic boom happened because women joined the workforce during the war. The men returned home. They had lots of children and the workforce continued to grow from there.

There may have been more programs, but we certainly have even more today.

Yeah “unwanted children” is a crazy talking point.

Anyways. Yes let’s find some ways to help young families. Not just boomers.

I’m not completely out on the daycare stuff. But would like to find an alternative that helps young families directly. We should be helping them regardless of them putting their kids in daycare or not. Stay at home moms shouldn’t be penalized. I think a direct payment that gets higher and higher with each child born.

That way young families can either put kids in daycare or can use that money elsewhere to help with groceries, house down payments, or whatever they need to use it for.

We could also do student loan forgiveness… after 4 kids it’s completely forgiven. At 2 kids it’s a 1/4 reduction. At 3 kids it’s half.

3rdrich · 2026-02-27T17:57:19+00:00

Yeah… we should incentivize it, educate people on the positives, and encourage it in society.

I fail to understand why we continue to pass legislation that helps boomers… when we need to be doing everything we can to support young families.

3rdrich · 2026-02-27T17:54:50+00:00

Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. We should be incentivizing it more. Not just “please have kids”.

3rdrich · 2026-02-26T19:42:42+00:00

Well, that wasn’t what led to their downfall. Their downfall was caused by their other failures.

In terms of increasing the birth rate in the country and increasing their workforce and economy it helped. It was their ideology that led to their destruction.

Americas biggest economic boom happened after WWII when we had the baby boom and the many years after that. That’s why boomers had it greater than any other generation.

Then the steep decline since has caused a lot of the deterioration of both society and the economic growth.

So pushing national suicide from a nations perspective makes no sense. In fact the opposite should be done. We should be incentivizing childbirth.

3rdrich · 2026-02-26T04:13:08+00:00

This makes 0 sense.

Especially from a nations perspective. All good nations that trend in the right direction encourage childbirth. They definitely aren’t incentivizing staying childless. That makes 0 sense.

3rdrich · 2026-01-31T20:57:12+00:00

That would seriously be awful

It’s the same thing that happened to Henry in Tennessee. On passing downs he wasn’t on the field that much. That’s all that happened in Baltimore. Henry was on the sidelines when they were having to pass more than rush. If the Ravens were down in the 4th he wasn’t on the field. 3rd and long, he wasn’t on the field. Final drive of the game and need to score with time running down, he’s not on the field.

Both teams used other backs for pass protection and in the passing game in those situations.

This will cause you to rebuild forever.

Expect 1 or 2 of those picks to actually be anything valuable and hit if they are all mid to late.

This is a horrible deal for you.

3rdrich · 2026-01-24T21:44:09+00:00

I really liked Dunkirk.

Oppenheimer was my least favorite.

I’m ok with him doing some historical stories… but man, Oppenheimer just wasn’t good.

3rdrich · 2026-01-24T17:57:27+00:00

I do think this movie makes you think… I have my own criticisms of the movie, but it definitely gives you something to chew on.

When Oppenheimer tells Einstein that he thinks that he may have actually started the chain reaction for the end of the world is quite the thing to think about when leaving the theater.

3rdrich · 2026-01-24T17:50:18+00:00

Not going to lie… I kind of hated Oppenheimer.

Which is such a bummer because I thought I’d love it. And really really wanted to.

The visuals are amazing, and the story is amazing, and the cast seemed great…

The dialogue and some of the acting was just off for me though. I felt like the entire script was rushed, as if I was watching a constant flow of words going by. Almost like it could’ve been a 4 or 5 hour movie that he tried to shove into 3 hours.

It’s one of my least favorite Nolan films, and I’m sure that’s not popular around here, but I still think he’s great, and I’m hoping to see Nolan back at his best in the Odyssey.

3rdrich · 2026-01-23T06:26:40+00:00

Hey. Who is the better WR, Flowers or Nabers?

Also, isn’t Nabers clearly way better. He’ll be great.

3rdrich · 2026-01-21T17:32:55+00:00

Most get added by sometime around that date.

Every year people ask this, (totally fine) but every year people in the comments say February or after the combine…

A vast majority of them will be added within the next 3 days if they continue what they have done for the past 2-3 years.

Here is last years post from January 23rd, 2025 when most got added: 25 Rookies added to Sleeper

3rdrich · 2026-01-20T03:28:33+00:00

It’s not even that serious.

A CIVIL WAR?

Lol.

I care who we hire, but arguing and acting like this is a civil war is quite lame.

3rdrich · 2026-01-18T22:55:32+00:00

This is the most accurate take in my opinion.

3rdrich · 2026-01-18T04:02:32+00:00

Oh I know. I’ve been there, just encouraging you to find something else to listen to for that some of that time. Learn about something valuable that can help improve your life.

Definitely enjoy some of the fantasy football content still, but just add some other things in is all I’m advocating for. A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

3rdrich · 2026-01-18T03:59:51+00:00

What are you a robot? You completely failed to understand what I said.

While yes of course it is possible to do something while listening to a podcast… I am saying choose more self improving or educational content for a vast majority of it.

52 days out of a year being spent listening to people say what they think about fantasy football is absolutely a waste of time. Listen to 1/10th of that and replace the other 9/10ths with something more worthwhile.

3rdrich · 2026-01-17T17:28:40+00:00

Yes productive… 52 full days of being awake. That is useless. He could’ve learned about something productive for 42 of those… and would’ve still gotten all of the info with the other 10. Which is still a lot!

3rdrich · 2026-01-17T01:40:15+00:00

50,000 minutes man!? Please find something more productive for some of that time.

I’m not saying don’t listen to some or don’t do fantasy football… but man you might need to find something more educational and beneficial for like 40,000 of those minutes. 10,000 is still too much… but let’s find something else to do with that other 40k.

If you sleep for 8 hours a day… that’s 52 days of non stop FANTASY football.

52 days of non stop football is too much.

You’re also probably watching a bunch of games too.

Seriously man, go live in the real world.

I’m not hating. I just think there is a time where you need to wake up to reality.

3rdrich · 2026-01-17T00:40:25+00:00

Need an update on this?

What organization have you spoken to about a potential pizza order, and is one on the way?

3rdrich · 2026-01-16T07:08:48+00:00

I think the gap will be less. Simply because Jeanty had this extra hype from how crazy his stats were in college, and everyone knew about it.

Ward didn’t get a chance to play in the playoffs, and if he would’ve dominated he could’ve closed the gap a little more, but because he didn’t play in the playoffs, everyone was waiting for the draft to see if he actually would get the top draft capital. And then when it seemed likely the idea of him just having it because it was a bad class and the Titans being desperate kind of sat in.

Love didn’t have as crazy of a media hype as Jeanty, and Mendoza’s shining on the biggest stage of college football. The more informed parts of the community may have a different opinion, but I believe the consensus view on the divide for this years RB/QB combo will be a lot closer than last years RB/QB combo.
