“Biden said that rural communities suffer from a similar disparity known as the “digital divide” — a persistent gap between the families, workers and employers that have high-speed internet access and those that do not. Even in a time of self-driving cars, commercial spaceflight and artificial intelligence, roughly 7 percent of the United States still does not have broadband service that meets the government’s minimum standards, according to new federal estimates.
“It’s the biggest investment in high-speed internet ever, because for today’s economy to work for everyone, internet access is just as important as electricity or water or other basic services,” Biden said.


Democrats help people in red states even though they will never admit it and always vote Republican 

Trump aimed tax increases at blue state Americans, but Biden aims financial aid at red state Americans 

You see the difference? Democrats are fundamentally better people than Republicans.

You’re a moron. Always remember that.

You can lead a horse to the internet, but you can’t make it think.

Honestly 'are many other forms of fast communication in the world,
And some communities might prefer being without the internet,
See it as a corruptive influence morally, an unhealthy drug to mind/body/soul.

Better does not mean good, contrary to the popular belief.

Democrats help people in red states
When the president's economic ratings have been worse than Carter's, an election is coming up with polling too close to call [1] [2], and control of the congress is split, of course Democrats will be open to bipartisan legislation.

Trump aimed tax increases at blue state Americans
The Federal Government doesn't tax by state. I'll just link to Trump's actual tax policies, which reduced tax burdens to the point that they were criticized for potentially adding to the national debt.

"Those who earn less may also see a bit of a break. A single person making $39,000 in taxable income in 2017 saw a rate of 25%. In 2018, 2019 and beyond, that rate dropped to 12%."
"According to the IRS, tax refunds averaged $2,775 in 2021. This is an 11.2% increase from the previous year when the average return was worth $2,495."
"Trump’s tax plan was one of the largest tax code overhauls in decades – lowering individual tax rates, raising standard deductions, and lowering the threshold for medical expense deductions."

 I wondered how Trump increased the National Debt by 39 percent. That means $242,570 is owed for every household in the U.S.
Good Job Putin. I'm sure he will OK the Moscow Trump Tower now which he cancelled in 2015 before Trump's run for the Presidency.

Stimulus checks. (Interestingly, Democrats criticized Congress at that time for not spending enough.)

I wonder why it was only 39 percent. 75 percent would have shown real compassion.

Good Job Putin.
I cant wait to write in Putin for the Democrat nominee. At least he gets shit done.

83% approval ratings for protecting the Donbas and fighting American funded Azov Nazis... up from 61% before the CIA started the 2014 Ukraine civil war.

That's near triple of your boy Biden's approval.
Dang!

I'm sure he'll be available soon, that is assuming they let him live after he is removed from power.

Soon he'll be unemployed or dead.

Nobody is removing him. Turns out you fell for disinformation again. Jan 6 was a bigger coup than the one Russia allowed you to see.

Oh ok, and it'd be foolish to oppose that simply because of "socialism".

He's weakened, much more vulnerable, no longer fully in control, he won't last.

OK

Sidewalker may be cut thinking 80 percent approval means a weak and vulnerable leader.

Almost as bad as thinking a 30 percent approval leader is strong and sane and not demented at all.

  • No.  Socialism is where the people control the means of production.
SInce nothing is being produced in this example, it is not socialism.

Prigozehn said it was not a coup against Putin nit about trying to disband his army and he says Russia attacked his men. Which at first I thought was just bad propaganda from Ukraine. Why would Russia attack self, but then pigozehn believing so made me think there is something more to it than propaganda.

We have subliminally tricked ourselves into the establishing  the new Technological World Order.....2

Whereby we are now slaves to technological evolutionary development.

And people still foolishly believe that A.I. will not eventually take over.

The Federal Government doesn't tax by state.
When the Republicans pass a tax law that caps deductions for state and property tax, it’s not hard to figure out who that effects the most.

When Republicans pass a tax law that eliminates deductions for union dues but increases the ability for business owners to pass through their income (or deductions) on to their personal returns, it’s not hard to figure out who that effects the most.
