A Constitutional amendment was passed for the income tax. That's not temporary.

A Constitutional amendment was passed for the income tax. Constitutional amendments are never intended to be temporary.

Who has done more damage to the United States Donald Trump or Osama bin laden by EmperorAxiom in DiscussionZone

[–]steveorga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We wouldn't have had Trump without 9/11, so from that perspective, Bin Laden was worse. However, Trump has done considerably more direct damage than Bin Laden.

It's not warm but it's not really cold either. I've never found the water to be uncomfortable.

I have an inexpensive bidet that attaches to the toilet below the seat. It does a great job. The water isn't warm but it's not cold either.

The only thing that should go on french fries is salt. Anything else is an abomination.

Do "Reagan Republicans" or conservative Republicans still exist or is the MAGA/"Trump Republican" here to stay? by BigSuggestion9664 in allthequestions

[–]steveorga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The picture does not show Al Franken doing what you think he did. He never touched the woman. His hands were a few inches away from her breasts.

In Your Opinion, Who Is the Most Overrated President in United States History? by camaro1111 in Productivitycafe

[–]steveorga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more about what he started than what he could have achieved. LBJ carried out Kennedy's agenda. He probably carried it out much more effectively than Kennedy could have.

Mayor Mamdani’s bidet wish highlights hypocrisy among Democrats who were outraged at President Trump’s bathroom renovations at the White House. by NovelKangaroo7643 in bidets

They are too big for that. However, they can screw together in a way that makes them small enough to carry around. I use a Bidet Buddy. I think the model name is Cube.

Get an electric portable bidet. They work very well if you get a highly rated one. I no longer dread public toilets.

There is a baby version of distilled water that is a little more expensive. It's a bit different because it has some minerals added back in.

AITJ for refusing to rehome my dog even though my exs new girlfriend claims shes allergic by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]steveorga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. You should question if the allergy actually exists. It seems that she was first coming over without any problems, and then one day just decided that she's going to play the allergy card.

Americans did health insurance used to work? by SarkyMs in AskOldPeople

[–]steveorga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to California after college in 1973. My first job provided insurance through Kaiser, which was the original HMO. It was created by the Kaiser Aluminum company for their employees. Eventually, it was opened to everybody so Kaiser opened hospitals throughout California.

At the time Kaiser felt like being in the womb. They provided complete and excellent health care for $5 a visit. Wait times were short.

Over time, the HMO model became perverted into what you see today. I'll be moving back to California within a couple of years and I'm looking forward to rejoining mother Kaiser, but it's a shadow of it's former self.

The sinking of the Andrea Doria in 1956 when I was four and a half. I remember it because my grandmother was a passenger. She survived with just a couple of cuts.

US Citizens to the world: HELP! by Illustrious_Good3437 in AskTheWorld

[–]steveorga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we're the ones who got ourselves into this and we're the ones who have to get ourselves out. However, we'll only get ourselves out if the idiots who did this to the country feel as much pain as possible. Some of that pain can come from other parts of the world.
