If you subsidize something, you tend to get more of it. (And if you tax something, you tend to get less of it.)
Iron laws which the Progs ignore, or pretend to ignore.

Investigating Trump Russia. I don't think they have been interested in investigating Chinese issues or aggression for decades. See Feinstein's driver; Milley's comment about warning China of any attack; and those are the only two easily accessible to my poor brain cells. Trump stood up to them, but the organizations under him did not.

But at least our armed forces are all up-to-date on pronoun usage. So, there's that.

Did you call the Monty Python "Abuse" Line by mistake?
If not... who was it?

Worst? Try Social Security. Issue with kids SSN. Wait times... next to forever.... get through told one thing.... next call what we were told previously was incorrect. Told we had to have an appointment, told there were no appointments. 3 month, 8 calls 3 trips to get it sorted out.

Reply to JCM in 18: Wife could not pass the online questions to order a new SocSec card and had to go there. The wait was a pain, but the person there actually was decent.
No appointments, go in and wait. Pre-COVID

Sotomayor compares fetus to brain dead person I wonder if she can do enough Hail Marys and Our Fathers to make a conservative priest satisfied. The current pope might not have any problems.
