the connection to #3 is non-existent
Truth
Despite all of the flaws in modern elections, it is still impossible to determine which voter voted for which candidate, unless it's 100% for a single candidate, in which case you know how all voters voted. But so long as one person voted for the other candidate, you cannot know which voter that was.
Greed doesn't matter in a free market economy.
Trying to overcharge your customers? They'll just go buy from your competitors.
Trying to pay your employees less than they're worth? They'll go work for your competitors.
Trying to raise rent above market value? Your tenants will move to your competitors houses for rent.
Corruption destroys all economies
This is using the force of government to give yourself and/or your friends an unfair advantage. This is jobs required to get a license to do work such as cutting hair. This is onerous banking regulations that the big banks can survive, but the little guys can't.
not waste time on useless actions
This frustrates me too. But I understand this is the game. Dems control the Senate and the White House. With the GOP in the House, really it's all about running out the clock. Maybe you'll get some compromises on mostly Dem legislation. But the focus is really just on wasting time until we can get MAGA in all 3 places (Senate, House, and White House). It's a damn shame that RINOs ruined everything from 2017-2018.
Because it was an Act of War
What's the normal way this would be dealt with?
- Bridge owner makes a claim against the ship's insurance company
- Ship's insurance company does an investigation to see if it's a covered event
- If covered, insurance company pays out.
- If not covered, no pay out
If the ship was hacked by a foreign country, the investigation would reveal this as a not-covered event, and it would drag America into a kinetic war.
But Brandon goes on TV the same day saying that we the taxpayers will pay to fix the bridge. Any investigation will be done by Brandon's cronies to get the result desired by the administration: no hacking, just an accident.
