    It is obvious why US Politics are so corrupt is the amount of money donated to candidates, irrespective 0f the office they seek. Here in New Zealand candidates are subject to a maximum level in both national and local politics. Hence, we do not have a lot of corruption.

    $75 million. So much for limits on contributions by individuals. We either figure out how to get all this money out of politics, or we better read up on the fall of Rome as a guidebook for America's future.

    Since the commencement of Biden' presidency, the United States appears to have witnessed more adverse outcomes.These iñcude impact on the market, such as declines in prices,significant inflation spikes and instances of bank failure.i am contemplating whether the sudden surge in interest rates will be advantageous for value investor or if it might be more prudent to temporarily avoid involvement in the stock and financial market....

      My plan next year is going on 80% equities 20%cash. One of the things i have learned in my years of investing is not to completely move in or move out of investments,if you have quality assets. It is better to trime then holdsome cash for buying opportunities. Before the latest drop in the market was down to $105k but currently at $650k..making a 25% increase from last year

      @@peterl545 Think for a minute what the "job" will allow her to have in return. Living off taxpayers and the extension of "hospitality" from "Friends" certainly is worth her time. She may not need the money, but her "friends" sure need favors. Just ask SCJ Thomas.

      He donated to RFK Also .. which is the great cause.i can c why this guy wants to rehire DT. DT was rt and knew about all the corruption and censorship but he didn't do any investigation, didn't fire or dismantle any organization. Pardoned Kim k person but not Assange. He promised disclose Alien and JFK. A he said we cldnt handle and he ack he promised JFK but a guy he really likes who works at WH asked him not to so I didn't.. and he gave this guy tax break .
      RFK deserves a ... was gonna say shot but because of that he has earned a chance
