There is the illusion that our taxes fund the government and it's false. Our government is actually funded by t notes and bonds mostly bought by the Fed Treasury. That's not even a federal organization either lol. The Fed Treasury can't back our money with gold because the outcome would be so horrific it might start the next civil war. I kind of admire the BRICS thing where they absolutely refuse and reject to trade in the USD because of the instability and the fact our money isn't and can't be backed by anything other than air or dirt. Even then it's still a worthless currency the usd

@@arae1977 so they work every other week? Must be nice to get paid for not working! Be on break for what? They should be in Washington DC Money through Friday 8-5 and fly home on Friday night or Saturday and return Sunday night. Unless there is a compelling reason such as needing to do something in their state’s capital and even then they should be working 8-5 M-F like the people that are paying for their income, providing their vehicles (since they don’t need to currently pay for them) and all the perks that they are getting while the citizens can’t work enough to feed their families, housing costs and food are crazy high priced. I predict that soon people of different generations will be shacking up together because if you are paying for housing you can’t afford food or if you are buying your own family’s food costs you can’t afford to pay for housing! That’s why it’s called a rat race. We spend our best years running nonstop in a rodents wheel but not seeing or enjoying life 😢It’s bull 💩.

[@debbiemesna2411]

Where are these people??

[@TexanIndependence]

​@@KseaPetersen Do we expect them to pass a law inconveniencing themselves to do real work? This is the ultimate flaw of the constitution as Patrick Henry, the "Give me liberty or give me death" Founding Father said in a June 5, 1788 speech warning about this very problem. That speech successfully convinced Virginia to vote against ratifying the constitution (later fellow Virginians Washington and Jefferson urged a re-vote): "Grant that any of them are wicked; they may squander the public money so as to ruin you, and yet this expression will give you no redress. I say they may ruin you; for where, sir, is the responsibility? The yeas and nays will show you nothing, unless they be fools as well as knaves; for, after having wickedly trampled on the rights of the people, they would act like fools indeed, were they to public and divulge their iniquity, when they have it equally in their power to suppress and conceal it. Where is the responsibility - that leading principle in the British government? In that government, a punishment certain and inevitable is provided; but in this, there is no real, actual punishment for the grossest mal-administration. They may go without punishment, though they commit the most outrageous violation on our immunities. That paper may tell me they will be punished. I ask, By what law? They must make the law, for there is no existing law to do it. What! will they make a law to punish themselves? This, sir, is my great objection to the Constitution, that there is no true responsibility - and that the preservation of our liberty depends on the single chance of men being virtuous enough to make laws to punish themselves." - Patrick Henry, Speech on June 5, 1788 that convinced Virginia to reject the Constitution (until forced to re-vote later)

The truth is electric companies didn’t invest in infrastructure updates/maintenance and ensure they could deal with very cold conditions. Because it doesn’t get cold in Texas, except when it does. They rigged the system telling people it would lower the costs but what really happened? When people need it the most and use it the most (peak usage) you had people paying thousands in costs to heat their homes. It’s a completely rigged system where they are just trying to pass the blame to “windmills”. Don’t believe their BS, they tricked you and know want you to think it wasn’t them.

La verdad es que las compañías eléctricas no invirtieron en actualizaciones/mantenimiento de infraestructura y no se aseguraron de que pudieran hacer frente a condiciones muy frías. Porque en Texas no hace frío, excepto cuando hace frío. Amañaron el sistema diciéndole a la gente que reduciría los costos, pero ¿qué pasó realmente? Cuando la gente más lo necesita y lo usa más (uso pico), hubo personas que pagaron miles de dólares en costos para calentar sus hogares. Es un sistema completamente amañado en el que simplemente intentan echar la culpa a los “molinos de viento”. No creas en sus tonterías, te engañaron y quieren que pienses que no fueron ellos.

I'm fed up with hearing him. The first two times I heard his rants I could give him credence: after more than a year of ranting and no real progress I started watching to see if he changed tactics to compensate for OBVIOUS lack of success. It was when I didn't see any meaningful change or any intelligent adaptation of tactics I realize he loves to rant more than he cares about solving the MASSIVE AND OVEWHELMING catastrophe of problems we face. It's getting old. But not that the rest of Americans are any better, either. Not that they can do anything from the comfort and shelter of their idolized private lives...

[@Ebondescent]

@@ForGlory Don't lump us all together. Some of us are passionate about wanting to fix this stuff but the majority are too busy with their head in the clouds to pay attention. I tell people about this stuff all the time but they don't want to hear it or just want to hide their heads in the sand about it. People would rather let someone else worry about it and it is very frustrating. I have been speaking out for years about the corruption in the government and the attitude from a lot of people are the same. It is hard to get people that don't care to care about it. A friend at work the other day told me he would prefer I didn't tell him about it because it's his right to not have to hear about it. I told him that he will care when the country collapses and he basically said that things were fine for now so until it does become a problem he would rather not have to hear about it. I get how you feel about it but sadly it is hard to convince my own people to do something when they would rather tune out and not deal with the problems. I am limited in scope as to what I can do as a person with little to no influence but I do try to tell people and wake people up. It's just people want to stay asleep until there is no other choice but to wake up and realize that their country is gone. I am equally fed up with hearing our politicians move their mouths but do nothing. I get it is hard to go against the grain in Congress but they roll over and just take it all the time. I don't trust a single one of them to do anything.

@sheenadees2701 I also have respect for Chip Roy, Trump, and several others in Congress. However.... .... I am still reserving my opinion on Vivek. He talks a good, seemingly sincere line, and he is highly intelligent and seems a decent fellow. That said, he attended the George Soros training for 'Future Leaders'. I am anything but comfortable with that. He has only been on the scene for around 8-10 years, his parents recently immigrants from another country. I am assuming they are citizens or Vivek became one. I don't know. I would assume so since it is a requirement for the Presidency. He started 2 companies, both of which the employees are suing Vivek, again I don't know for what. He didn't affiliate with Republican until a handful of years ago, little longevity here. He is not Christian as he has adopted the religion of his parent's origional country and America is founded on Christian principles. I don't know enough about him or the depths of his legitimate feelings toward the U.S. to vote for him. Nor am I convinced he has yet earned the right to lead this country. All of this may or may not be important, but I have not found the evidence nor do I have the longevity of proven proformance from him as he is only in his later 30's and is newly on the political scene. I am withholding my opinion on him other than to say I don't want him as T's running mate at this time.

That is why we need to start voting these lifers out who have no regard for our tax dollars or a budget. They are bought and paid for by big corporations, on both sides.

EV is not the solution. $$$$$

[@ANE48]

I think those batteries are going to end up being a huge problem. Oil , gas, & coal are vital to our power grids. Without that how will they charge the batteries. I don’t get it. A hail storm recently destroyed hundreds of acres of solar panels. The wind turbines won’t last, & will have to be maintained. Where are OUR high speed trains? I heard the auto industry lobby nixed it. I wonder if that actually happened?

The truth is electric companies didn’t invest in infrastructure updates/maintenance and ensure they could deal with very cold conditions. Because it doesn’t get cold in Texas, except when it does. They rigged the system telling people it would lower the costs but what really happened? When people need it the most and use it the most (peak usage) you had people paying thousands in costs to heat their homes. It’s a completely rigged system where they are just trying to pass the blame to “windmills”. Don’t believe their BS, they tricked you and know want you to think it wasn’t them.
