@buckscorner411 @_Postive_Vibes You set it up just as you would your own financial situation. If you have no funds you don’t buy the boat.

@buckscorner411 @_Postive_Vibes It’s time to hear “we’re going to cut back” instead of “we’re going to raise taxes”. I want to hear the first local, county, state official ask “how’re you going to pay for it”? We already pay for it. Governments need to tighten their belts & weed out lazy employees.

Most government employees work hard and well. I was one for 23 years. This illustrates a problem: Our contracts with grantees were 9 pages long when I started. At the end of my career, they were more than 30 pages. Laws and regulations are rarely repealed. They are amended.

@0IvankaTrumpRV2 I think we should welcome and befriend most foreign students; however, if they engage in disruptive behavior, or are hateful of their host country, they don't deserve to stay.

@AmericaFirsst Anyone who is willing to expend time and resources to build a better future is worthy of consideration. I would just ask about whose future would be built better?

@_Postive_Vibes I agree in principle, but how will local communities meet their expenses? What alternatives could replace real estate taxes? Of course, many towns and cities can drastically cut expenses. Town managers don't need to set up fiefdoms with ever expanding benefits and programs.

MASSIVE 🔥— Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has dropped a bombshell by demanding the complete elimination of property taxes across the U.S.A. "It's almost like they have to pay rent to the government, just to be able to enjoy their property. That's wrong. We need to do something."

@anagard0306 A. Even when money is a problem we can usually still give some to those in need.

The US National Debt just surpassed the size of our entire economy for first time since World War II US government has reached a record breaking debt of $31.27 trillion, this is over 100% of GDP They won’t pay it, they only spend it. You will Pass Warren Buffett’s idea: “I could end deficit in 5 minutes. You just pass a law that says that anytime there's a deficit of more than 3% of GDP all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for reelection. Now you've got the incentives in the right place right? So it's capable of being done” - Warren Buffet This is our main problem, our selected officials don’t work for us. They work for themselves and their billionaire donors.

"I'm a teen mother. I had multiple people including the child's father trying to talk me into getting an abortion. They kept trying to tell me that it was the best thing to do for my baby and that nobody else would ever have to know. ⠀ ⠀ I was pregnant with my son at 15. I actually went to a clinic and everything, I had no idea what the right thing would be for me to do. I was a terrified teenager. They did an ultrasound and asked me if I would like to see the baby and I told them yes. As soon as I saw my little baby on the screen, I immediately knew that I could not do this to my child and that I shouldn't be letting people pressure me into doing something like that. ⠀ ⠀ I ran out of the building and cried like a baby. I called my boyfriend at the time (baby's father) and he actually screamed at me and told me that I needed to turn around and go get the abortion. ⠀ ⠀ I'm now a 17-year-old single mother and my son is one years old. He is the love of my life and I absolutely adore him. Nobody should ever feel pressured to get an abortion."-Chloe Credit: (Testimony and photo) Save the Storks

"On a peaceful Sunday afternoon in June 1961, just months after leaving the presidency, Dwight D. Eisenhower was tending his vegetable garden at his Gettysburg farm when he noticed a young couple had gotten their car stuck in the mud on the rural road bordering his property, and without hesitation, this 70-year-old former Supreme Commander grabbed a rope from his barn, trudged through the muck in his overalls, and spent forty-five minutes helping them push their beat-up Chevy back onto solid ground. What makes this moment so beautifully human is that the couple—newlyweds Tom and Susan from Ohio driving cross-country on their honeymoon—had absolutely no idea they were being rescued by the man who'd led the Allied forces to victory and served two terms as President, and Eisenhower never mentioned it, just introduced himself as 'Ike, the farmer next door' and asked about their travels while hauling on the rope with mud splattered all over his work clothes. When they finally got the car free, Eisenhower's wife Mamie appeared with a thermos of lemonade and homemade cookies, inviting this bewildered young couple to sit on their porch and rest, and for an hour they chatted about marriage advice, good fishing spots in Pennsylvania, and the best route to California, with Ike telling stories about his own road trips with Mamie decades earlier. It wasn't until Tom and Susan stopped for gas twenty miles down the road and showed the attendant a photo they'd taken with 'the nice farmer who helped us' that someone gasped and said, 'That's President Eisenhower!'—and the couple nearly fainted realizing they'd just shared lemonade and marriage tips with one of history's greatest leaders who'd treated them like old friends rather than starstruck strangers. Tom later wrote Eisenhower a letter thanking him for the kindness, and Ike responded with a handwritten note: 'The pleasure was all ours—Mamie and I love meeting young people starting their adventures together. Remember: a good marriage is like farming, it takes patience, hard work, and the wisdom to know some days you're just going to get muddy. Stay happy. Your friend, Ike.' What absolutely destroys you is understanding that Eisenhower could've enjoyed celebrity retirement, could've had staff handle every inconvenience, but instead he chose to be simply *Ike*—a neighbor who helped strangers, a farmer who got his hands dirty, a man who measured his worth not by past glory but by present kindness, proving that true greatness is what you do when nobody's watching and nobody knows your name.
