What’s the point ? President Roosevelt didn’t want to be photographed with his wheelchair.
President Roosevelt was an effective, powerful President. President Biden has been effective and has made great strides for our Nation. His continued tenure promises to be equally effective and beneficial, walker or no walker.
This subject angers me to the furthest extent. Both Parties are responsible for the deplorable situation we find ourselves in where we don’t bring in enough in revenues to cover our debts.
Americans, generations into the future, will be paying for our selfishness and irresponsibility. We’re floating on the backs of our children, their children and their children, and on and on.
When will our politicians have the spine to lower our spending and raise our taxes in order to balance the budget and pay down our enormous, choking debt ?
We pay as much in just interest on our debt every year as we do on National defense .. and that doesn’t pay our debt down a single penny. It’s a great shame that our leaders are so irresponsible, at the expense of our children.
Lisa, remember the recession ? ..The most widely predicted recession in history ? Well, it didn’t happen thanks to the expert management of the Federal Reserve coupled with President Biden’s policies.
An economy the size of the US economy is not easy to manage. One slight miscalculation of a correction could cause a cascade of negative consequences or an over correction.
It takes a lot of skill, knowledge and expertise to get it just right. The Fed and President Biden got it nearly exactly right. They avoided the expected recession and are successfully bringing down the resultant spate of inflation.
Yet you have cause to find fault. Some people can never be pleased, no matter what.
ptrieb, please don’t confuse Hamas with the great majority of peaceful, suffering, everyday Palestinian civilians .. farmers and other honest people who have had their lands, farms and orchards taken away from them by force, have had commodities they need for normal life confiscated and have to contend with barriers that cause them to travel miles and miles and hours out of their way to visit relatives across town. This is all ongoing, in the West Bank, and is even besides the recent Israeli suppression of common, hapless Palestinians in Gaza.
Northgalus, I hate to have to say that I don’t believe Marjorie Taylor Greene will be defeated in November. Voters in that district (which borders my district to the north) are crazy Trumpers, as are many in my district. Her district was gerrymandered to include more moderate parts of Atlanta, to suppress the desires of those voters, but the majority are still dangerously vociferous reactionaries.
Why ? Did I miss an explanation in the cartoon ?
