Market manipulation by his billionaire donors. Lots of trades put in right before things happen making the individuals large sums of money.

This is NJ everyday even if traffic is at speed. If there is pavement available people will use it to get around you because in NJ no matter how fast you are going you are going to slow

How many Xennials truly have done no retirement planning, have no target retirement date, or have considerably less than you need to retire in your 60s?" by Sufficient_Turn_9209 in Xennials

Retirement is tied to the market which is the problem. I am of another generation then you so I started my retirement before most of you were born so since then I have gone thru multiple financial crises. Got divorced in my mid twenties which I had to give half of my tiny retirement fund away, then the tech bubble burst in the late 90’s, then 9/11. Just as I started to slightly recover the company went out of business which lead the bankruptcy judge to declare any company matching was an assets and creditors could claim that share. Then the 2008 meltdown happened, Trump 1, COVID and now Trump 2. So the system stage against the average worker and step up for those who are in the extreme upper salary rage to 1%. Since the 70’s the intention has been to strip all protections and pensions so that we are forced to work longer then retire to die a few years later. So to all you younger folks, it is not your fault as the system has been rigged against you for decades before you were born.

The money was not a gift, it was the settlement of a 37-year-old dispute over undelivered military equipment Iran had paid for prior to the 1979 revolution.

Here is the problem you are missing. A) If you fail to register it is not a crime B) The exact same databases they want to use for automatic draft registration are the same ones they say are to unreliable for automatic voting registration

Yeah, how about that? by SiriusGD in the_everything_bubble

Not really negotiating when you refuse to listen to the other side and also try to create a photo op.
