Polls: Society & Politics

Surely a person does not need that much property to live. Then why do some people buy more property then they need. Obviously it can only be to squeeze money from people through rent or mortgage. Do you think this is right?

I think it is one of the worse things allowed in a society. And it can only be that politicians are in collusion with these land owners, otherwise they would have addressed it long ago.

If this practice was restrained, many people would not need to slave for 25 or 30 years to own there home. This is what governments should address first and foremost. Exploitation under the guise of many legal terms.

The Xiden regime was an absolute nightmare and catastrophe. Bidenflation; toxic identity politics, DEI, CRT, and social engineering; massive infiltration of illegal aliens; lawfare, retaliation, and surveillance of everyday Americans with conservative ideologies; and a cognitive decline of a sitting president were some of the many disasters of that era.

Trump has tackled many of these issues head-on and has done an impressive job with certain issues.

But there is one issue that is probably the most important of them all: the financial and economic impacts the everyday middle-class and working-class Americans face. My family is on the brink of collapse and financial ruin. We are among the many families we know who are struggling to afford even the most basic essentials like groceries, healthcare, and housing. Many are one unexpected emergency away from homelessness if not already there. Are we going to be able to pull out of this?

Judge Scraps Rule Eliminating Medical Debt on Credit Reports

The Trump administration joined with trade groups to ask a court to overturn a Biden-era rule that aimed to limit the impact of unpaid medical bills on consumers’ credit history

Consumer advocates said the ruling would add to the burdens confronting people facing health challenges. In drafting the rule, the consumer bureau drew on its own research and other studies showing that unlike most other consumer debt, medical bills have little value in predicting a consumer’s likelihood to repay loans.

In a macabre nod to how deeply debt enforcement efforts can cut, the bureau said when it issued the rule that it would have prevented creditors from using information about medical devices — like wheelchairs or prosthetic limbs — to demand that the devices “serve as collateral for a loan for the purposes of repossession.”

Or an in-between... Asking this because I sometimes hear this idea (from superconnected people) that what happens, socially, on the internet predicts social reality to come. I'm more of the idea that Internet is a self-contained place, when I compare what internet does and says to what people in my surroundings do and say. But it's all about perceptions, circles, probably, unless someone can bring some objectivity to the table?

Yuppp

Even many Republicans seem to think so...

this guy couldn’t of said it any better. Aside from swing the people they claim to defend they are also being hypocrite and just do it for clout and approval and not because they actually care.

For instance, most Hollywood actors/actresses seem very well-composed and behaved during public interviews, most don't show even any slight signs autism to me, and don't seem to get nervous at all it appears

Compared to me... people always think I look autistic, nervous, and non-social when I interact with others IRL... People often notice my hands/fingers shaking when they talk with me

This is generally speaking.

You can only push one button, not both.

If a minor (someone under 18 sees you, it can be charged as a felony, with penalties including prison time and mandatory sex offender registration.

Fines: Convictions can carry hefty fines, sometimes up to $2,500 or more, depending on the circumstances and state law.

Probation: Courts may impose probation with conditions like regular check-ins and counseling.

Jail or Prison Time: Jail time can range from a few days to several months for misdemeanors, and up to two years or more for felonies involving minors.
