To think people are more worried about the Ukraine bullshit than the taxes and spending...
Right now biggest issues are inflation and the retarded backwater states trying to make abortion illegal.
They are trying to force more babies to be born while we are in a formula shortage... you can't make this shit up."we can't feed the existing babies but God dammit we need way more babies!!!"
Its all to feed the industrial military complex with new impoverished & desperate recruits lol
racism not even on the list... that tells you something... lol
What does it tell you?
And which A through G answer-option did you select in the poll to this question?
it tells me that the major issues are those that we just refuse to acknowledge as such...
besides that, to me... the biggest issue is the fact that in our multi-faceted, extremely diverse as well as multicultural country, we are still married to a bipartisan politics model that does not accurately represent any of us... and won't even care to pretend or make efforts to actually represent us after we vote them to power
misery in comfort... comfort in misery, that's our biggest problem... we just got really used to it
@gagname take a guess...
Well, I don’t know if “racism” was “on the list” that NBC News had in their survey that they did, but I just crafted my polling list from the top 5 “vote-getters” in their survey (and the 2 other answer-options I put into my poll provided coverage for non-American and “Other” responses).
So can you please vote G in the poll to this question?
So what’s your solution to racism?
How would you keep three black kids from kicking the shit out of some 80 year old Chinese lady and robbing her?
@Agagagagaga blow up the entire earth... perhaps
@Agagagagaga and what would you suggest? since you're inquiring...
Learn to accept that racism and xenophobia are part of being human and that there will always be inevitable violence. You can’t legislate it away.
@Agagagagaga oh yeah... I realized that long time ago
you can make differences on a personal level, but taking it all out as a whole with "simplistic" legislation, that's just not going to work
All your other option offers are good except B. The fact that you have abortion as a concern is really concerning to me. Cost of living and shitty stupid ass health care are Americas biggest threats.
I generated this question’s polling list from the top 5 “vote-getters” in the NBC News Survey (seen in the pic to this question), and the 2 other answer-options that I put into my poll provided coverage for “Other” responses and responses from non-Americans.
Same problem the Republic our founding fathers modeled ours over, the Roman republic. Corrupt politicians.
Point #5 in the following article…
www.history.com/news/8-reasons-why-rome-fell
I'm talking about why republics fail, not why nations fall...
Ok. But that article is saying that political corruption was a contributing factor in the fall of the Roman Empire.
Yes, but I disagree on how its ordered, in my opinion corrupt politicians would be #1; at one point it got so bad Roman centuries (served 20+ years) were forced out of their homes & into a life of poverty.
The fact that so few people are aware, that mainstream media, public schools and most colleges, Google and other internet search engines, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Federal Reserve, FBI, CIA, IRS, PayPal, YouTube, etc. are owned or under the control of a group very powerful people that own or control the money.
Public school too, huh?
How are US public schools owned or controlled by this “group very powerful people”?
According to the National Center for Education Statistics, there were 98,817 public schools during the 2009-2010 school year.
www.infoplease.com/askeds/number-us-public-schools
According to Education Week, public school funding comes from…48 percent…from state resources, including income taxes, sales tax, and fees. Another 44 percent is contributed locally, primarily through the property taxes of homeowners…The last eight percent of the public education budget comes from federal sources…”
www.publicschoolreview.com/.../an-overview-of-the-funding-of-public-schools
Absolutely, the public schools. First, the states conform to the dictates of the Feds or else they withhold money. That is there is so much uniformity in the laws of the various states. For example, Age 21 for alcohol. Second this video at 0:40 establishes they use the public school to indoctrinate children.

It's a damn shame Biden regime knew about this baby formula months before now and did 🚫 nothing. What a shame our leaders are letting mothers scramble and watch their baby die because Biden just does not care.
Was that meant to be an opinion for another question of mine—this one?…
Has the US baby formula out-of-stock crisis affected your family? ↗
Or are you saying that the baby formula shortage is the most important issue facing the USA?
Today pallets of baby formula was found and on the directions the pallets were mark for illegal in county some 4 million
So did you vote G in the poll to this question?
Economy/cost of living & inflation And abortion and shooting spree‘s and property tax inheritance laws
So you voted E in the poll to this question?
Yes….
👌👍
Thanks
I'm trying to remember how to get around the inheritance. You have to put the property into an escrow, and have the people you want to inherit in the escrow as well, then when you die, it is released from escrow to your inheritors. Since it was only held onto by a third party the whole time, and was not actually sold, or inherited, the tax paid would just have to be off whatever new income they make from those assets moving forwards.
At least that's the way I understand it, though it's likely a little more complicated.
@razelove we had a $1 million dollar house and when my mother passed away our tax doubled instantly from $5000 all the way up to $11,000 it was ridiculous a big slap in the face And I’ve always lived with her and this happened to us. We had a big problem couldn’t afford to pay it and it ended up in a tax auction this was in a very classy neighborhood Pinecrest in Miami Florida
Oh shit, I went to some of those tax/estate auctions when I was out in Miami and going up to Vero beach. Tons of junkies looking to make it rich at all of those. I'm so sorry to hear your family's home wound up that way :(
@razelove we’ve had that house for 45 years and we got our asses handed to us and we only got 300,000 off of it for the three kids to split from a $1.2 million house total devastation
The economy and high cost of living is most important, since it has a direct or indirect effect on many of the other important things.
E. Everything else B, C, D, F, G is being thrown out there by the government and corporate media to try to distract attention away from E.
The cost of living and the economy are issues that other nations also now face, not just the United States, so when conservatives try to lay the blame for the mess entirely at Joe Biden's feet, they really should take that fact into account. He may be a bumbling old fool, but this crisis is much bigger than him or his government.
This question ISN’T about WHO IS TO BLAME for “the most important issue facing the USA today?”; it just is “WHAT is that most important issue…?”
Yes, I know what the question is, but I noticed that the top in that image is "cost of living", followed by "jobs and the economy".
That image is a picture of a Fox New-show-displayed-image of the results of a NBC New Survey.
Note: In the image, under the box with the line items & percentages there is fine print discussing the NBC News Survey that was done.
@snsl153 that is true but i would argue the problem is much deeper than that. Our economic system that is based on infinite resources and infinite growth is hitting the ceiling of reality that we live on this small planet and our resources are not infinite.
I chose "G" - overpopulation and not enough resources.
I guess it won’t matter in ~ 10 or so years, seeing that the climate will be ending the world then. Lol
Didn’t corona kill 1 million that we shut down the whole world down for?
Yes, Thanos was not wrong.
The lack of faith in God. Our country is headed in the wrong direction
Uh huh and it will get worse too, once wokeness starts really directly attacking freedom of religion and saying that religious ideas are “hate speech”; and going after religious people for being “extremists.”
@gagname Yeah. Its an ugly mess right now
Please vote G in the poll if you haven’t already.
definitely inflation with illegal immigration a close second.
World War III
All the rest of them are just noise.
Did some another country declare war on someone and I just didn’t hear about it?
And people not being able to pay there bills or feed their children because of inflation is not “noise.”
* their bills
When we're all dead, you are no longer responsible for your bills.
There is talk about Russia lobbing a nuke into Ukraine. If that happens, WWIII will happen. America will go to war with Russia, and China will step in and kick our ass.
I'm not making light of all the other fucked up problems we have, but you asked a question, and I gave my best answer.
Biden sent tanks, Howitzers and surface-to-air missiles to Ukraine. Putin warned him not to do it, but he did. Biden promised to not put US boots on the ground in Ukraine, but since he always lies, he did. They are there to train the Ukrainians how to use the new weapons. If ONE US soldier gets killed, the US and our allies will impose a no fly zone for Russia. That won't stop their jets from taking off, and we will shoot them down. If the US does that, you can forget about food prices or paying your bills. The crazy fuck will push the button.
I counted 2 “If’s” in your reply.
I’ll add another “If”: if Biden had been competent and done something to deter Putin when Putin started amassing troops along Ukrainian borders, the world wouldn’t be on the brink of nuclear war.
And here’s another “if”: if the Dems lose the House, Biden will be impeached on multiple charges.
Yes, that is all correct. Trump wouldn't let Putin finish his Nord Stream pipeline, because he knew if he did, they would he would invade Ukraine. Biden gave him permission on day one, and that's why this shit-show is happening.
I realize that Biden and Kamala will be impeached after the Republicans take the house and senate. But doesn't that hinge on the notion that the ballots will be counted fairly? The dems don't even want voter ID.
Yes, I through out some "ifs" but I don't think the invasion of Ukraine is and "if" and I don't think that whether or not Putin is crazy, is an "if."
America seems to love wars, but that's because of the military industrial complex. Whoever is pulling Biden's puppet strings, is wanting us to get into another war. Afghanistan and Iraq were stupid, but at least they didn't have thousands of nukes aimed at us.
My guess is that the Lresudent’s financial ties to/kickbacks from China through Hunter’s China (and maybe other place) dealings has the President compromised and causes him to go lightly on the Chinese w respect to the origin! s of Covid and not being able to have any leverage with respect to China. This will be worse when China decides it’s time to annex Taiwan.
You’re right about needing fair elections for a GOP victory in Nov (and 2024).
The 2 “if’s” I was referring to were If ONE US soldier gets killed, the US and [if] our allies will impose a no fly zone for Russia.
* the President’s financial ties
* and [if] the US and our allies will impose a no fly zone for Russia.
The dumbest thing Joey could have done is put American boots on the ground in Ukraine.
But he's not calling the shots, so he just signed a piece of paper. He probably didn't even know what he was signing.
Agreed (from the UK)
@Anonimoss
If the shit hits the fan, your team will be right next to us, and it won't be pretty. Vlad is struggling to just take on the tiny country of Ukraine. If the united forces of the world go after him and back him into a corner, I can see him pressing the buttons.
immigration, it lowers our wages and raises housing prices
I chose climate change, because if I could educate all the liars and deniers properly they'd see how bad this situation happens to be.
G: the fucking asshole in charge.
Yeah…but who is that a—hole? (The one in charge of pulling Biden’s puppet strings) 🤔
My money is on Hitlary but, anybody involved with this big fucking mess we're in, now.
Sadly, The lack of Jesus Christ in the hearts of the Citizens of the United States.
Government corruption
So did you vote G in the poll to this question?
Economy
Healthcare
Climate Change
So did you vote E in the poll to this question?
