They spend 40 billion because they don’t want to look weak or foreign policy.

They don’t help the poor in this country because they don’t want to be called communists or socialists by the Republicans.

Since Clinton the Dems have pursued this 3rd way Republican lite strategy.

They want to say “at least we aren’t Republicans” while the Republicans still call them far leftists because the Overton window has been pushed so far to the right.

Actually I know that 70% of all business is run by republicans. I can tell you in Fl it’s pretty clear. 2, I wore many hats in DHS when I worked there and I just happened to know some big companies or corps who paid lobbyists to stop E-verify. Again in Fl. What I posted, was the finger pointing all to the left. I won’t go into details - but for 3 yrs I saw the sham that’s presented to the public and the actual facts. Sorry.

The things with the handouts is that they allowed people to know what it is like to live off of them rather than working. So the liberals who promote illegal immigration, well, guess who is contributing to the homelessness!

Mexico has jobs, and I bet they'll be producing more Fords here pretty soon, plus medical, dental and pharmacy is cheaper there.

Close the darn border and start deporting!
The COVID handouts started under Trump. He was very proud of it, even sent a letter 'claiming credit'.

Don't try to act like it was just liberals promoting it. All politicians are the same. They buy votes and write blank checks. The only difference is the left is honest about it (tax and spend), the right is not (Don't tax, spend as much if not more).

And the eviction crisis is not new to Biden either. I'm not a fan of Biden, and I won't vote for him in a primary, and may not vote for him in the main election, but the amount of anti-Biden propaganda that the ill-informed right just eats up is alarming.

If you don't fill out an application completely the employer throws it in the trash.

Maybe the employer wants someone who does a complete job when assigned a task to do. In other words, the act of filling out the application may be part of the test as to whether the applicant would be suitable for the job.

Or, maybe the employer saw all he/she needs to know on the answers to the first few questions on the application and decided not to waste time storing an application from an unqualified applicant.

Again, if the applicant has no address then the applicant cannot complete the application. It would be impossible for the applicant to be qualified for any job, therefore it is not the choice of the applicant to be unemployed. It's up to the employer.

Wrong again! If you have no address, then under the heading of "address", you simply write "Homeless". That way, you have filled out the application completely and truthfully.

Don't just leave a question on an application unanswered or blank. For example, if the application asks for the name of your spouse and you are single, write in "Not applicable. I'm single." If you leave questions unanswered, the employer may think you are trying to hide something.

And many people use the address of family and friends.

How stupid do you think homeless people are?

Inflation is raging and I'm not ill informed.

Biden is the absolute worst excuse for a president we have ever seen.

Black urban areas are being hit the hardest.

We are about to be hit with an enormous homelessness wave due to Bidenomics, inflation, & perhaps by mid-week, a recession too.

Food insecurity has quadrupled in Maryland since December 2021:

https://www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/ne...s-food-budget/

These are very dark times for the bottom half of our fellow Americans.

Why are the Libs spending $40,000,000,000 on Ukraine, when Americans are losing their homes & going hungry? Where's the compassion?

The Uber Leftists only care about themselves, & they are out of touch. They are telling Americans to buy electric cars, when they can't even afford rent.
The overwhelming majority of Congress authorized the Ukraine spend and gave the Biden Admin MORE than it requested. It was BIPARTISAN.
