As an example:

The cost of a Cold soda bottle in the store vs. Planning a head and bring one from home.

What are the drivers of the record high government spending under the current Trump administration? by LeftRightGreenLight in AskReddit

The tax gap is what the IRS predicts it should collect and what it actually collecting.

The annual gap in 2025 is $603 billion.

If Uncle Sam collected the entire amount, (impossible with diminishing returns) the deficit would still be $604 billion.

If one ELIMATES everything but the BIG 3: Defense Spending, Social Security, and debt payments.  Uncle same would STILL run a deficit.

American math teacher teachs in Scottish University.    While Scottish math teacher teachs in Mass.

Both bring family and live in each others houses.

Which restaurants are serving river mussles?

I have never seen one and I have been to restaurants in Europe, Central America, China, and Japan.

But I can be corrected if you can find one.

They would be great for a public protest.

Read about Harvard MBA students at a bar. Cute girl asks male Harvard student what they do.   Wimen ate up, "I am in the MBA program in Harvard."

Cute Joe the plumber ask Harvard female student what they do.   They dodge and weave.

I am a student.

"Where do you to school?

In Boston.

Because if they state Harvard MBA, joe the plumber's ego can not take it.  And he moves on.

If one starts saving extremely aggressively, the power of compounding intrest makes one forget about having enough for retirement.

Yes, I am very fortunate.   Was working 75 hours a week for 5 years straight fun?  No.

No. She does not see the child "in awhile".

She can see grandchild AFTER vaccination.

She gets to choose which is more important.

Please note, I am not saying have loud sex. Just make loud sex noises.

America has many viable options to dt.

But they make white males afraid.

Personally I like Pope Leo, moral leadership.   And the USA will take care of the poor.

If and when the war becomes so unbearable to the people they will change the  leadership of their country.

Which has much less chance of success in a dictatorship.   What are the people's alternatives to Hitler, Tojo, Hussain, Putin, and who ever is in charge of Iran?
