If you don't care about anything, you should stop working. Why do you need a place to live? You can live on the street. I've never met someone that's so cavalier about everything.
Interesting you think that, they make up only 2.4% of registered US voters

It's not that I don't care about anything, I care about what's in my control. If it's not in my control, I don't care about it. I can't control the weather, but I do have a choice to use an umbrella or not if it's raining. I'm the type that does not use umbrellas.

The Mayor and the Gouveneuor need to tell the dumb azz President that we cannot take any more migrants here anymore, and they need to stop coming here and go back to where they came from.

We can't even take care of our own citizens, yet this moron POTUS wants everyone and their Aunt Tilly to come here so we can feed clothe and shelter them.
We have now, out of desperation resorted to sticking them in school gyms that's how bad it is.
Doesn't the POTUS and his idiot VP see any of this? Do they NOT have a clue as to what the hell is going on here in this freaking country?????

We have complete idiots running our nation, complete idiots!!

I wouldn't send my kids to a school that was housing migrants, absolutely not!

I think all the parents should not send their kids to school, maybe if we, the people made enough noise, something would happen.

I don't even think our Mayor knows what to do anymore, it has gotten so far out of hand....
and forget Hocul, she is another idiot, how the hell did she get in? who the hell wanted her?????

Everything started to go downhill once DeBlasio stepped into the office, and in the express lane, things haven't been the same.
Then in sachets Biden, with his dumb self and the country is now completely falling apart at the seams, and he is still keeping the flood gates open and they are still coming in droves.


And lets not forget Kamala, what is she gong to do, laugh and cackle away all of our problems? and just how did the first person voted off the island become VP???????????????????????????????????????????

If you say so, but regardless, they're a powerful voting bloc because unlike you, they vote.

Our votes dont matter from a numerical standpoint
If that's the case then why is the Democrat primary the only election which matters in NYS?

They are a powerful group because of their economic capital, which is not due to voting.
