Well, the prospect of lifetime zero interest rates scares me as I get closer to retirement age with very few places to earn ROI besides the russian roulette stock market.
Your comment to me was money not being the most important !!!
Now you're scared about retirement !!! Why ? Money !!! Then whine about the constitution !!! The constitution isn't legal tender and you won't squeeze a dime out of it !!!
Retirement is not for everybody and maybe its not for you !!!
The worst plan I ever heard of was counting on what a politician might do !!!
Biden's proposed universal (indoors and outdoors) mask mandate is unconstitutional. Even local and state governments know that and "recommend" masks be worn but cannot require it. Privately-owned businesses can require masks be worn on their premises just like they can require a dress code (think fine dining establishments) for service.
Biden's pledge to nominate a Black woman to SCOTUS is unconstitutional race and sex discrimination.
As for Biden's pledge to expand federal taxpayer-funded health care and education, both are unconstitutional and shouldn't even exist to begin with since they're not a Constitutionally enumerated power of the Fed Gov (they're both powers of each state). Reference the Constitution's Article 1 Section 8 and the 10th Amendment.
There are many more. Start researching.
Trump is funneling our money into his own pocket, has the most nepotism in presidential history, and has an administration with more criminal indictments than any other president in history. You're worried about wearing a mask?

Absolutely not even close to being true, where do you come up with such nonsense..? Turn off CNN and learn the truth..

...that the Trump administration has more criminal indictments than any other presidential administration is a point of fact. Trump has family members on government payroll. Are you claiming that's not the case?
How many believe that corporate tax cuts are passed down to employees through wages or other benefits? The company that I worked for put in an extra $1,500 into 401K in the first year, but nothing else after that. I still say that many american voters don't really care for tax cuts for even those who make over $100k, whom many consider to be "rich".
A drop in the bucket for them considering how much they made off. That's why they love tax cuts. Many companies won't even do what yours did. They just keep it all. Some will even lay off workers to maximize those profits.

That's news to me.
Yes. They do. They don't become a billionaire by spending every cent you earn on yachts, cars, jewelry, etc.

Actually, Trump is donating his salary to various causes. Why didn't Obama or Biden do that?
Yes. They do. They don't become a billionaire by spending every cent you earn on yachts, cars, jewelry, etc.
First, that's not hoarding, that's spending back into the economy. Secondly, that spending supports the manufacturing and selling companies and their employees.
Cautionary tale for you on what happened when a luxury tax was implemented on yachts, jewelry, private jets, etc., in the 1990s. Unintended Consequences. The rich simply stopped buying them. It cost the government more in unemployment and public assistance benefits than it generated in tax revenue, and destroyed entire industries:
Furthermore, like I said, their wealth*provides the capital investments in America's corporations thereby providing jobs to so many people and providing the ability of corporations to produce life-necessity goods and services*for the benefit of everyone else.
Money is not always the most important thing in life, you know. It's important that this country should live by the rights, liberties and responsibilities of the Constitution. The Constitution might as well be a shreaded-up piece of old paper if trump is re-elected.
You haven’t been keeping up have ya? The dems are the ones that want to shred our constitution along with its amendments. If dems are allowed to have power rioters will be absolutely free to break those encased documents and actually shred them.

"risky", it is a total disaster.
"I still say that many american voters don't really care for tax cut" Yet I don't know a SINGLE one who mailed in the amount of the cut they got BACK to Uncle Sam. did YOU?
