What are you talking about, don’t get to do much bidding? I would consider myself upper middle class, have a 401K and company stock that has done well, regardless of what the 1% has done. The top earners drive the economy, that’s why it makes no sense to overtax them.

Jasper is Open... Crumedy leaving for FB Travis

Maybe so. I just don't recall him applying for the Beaumont jobs these last two openings. He may have applied for Nederland job. -

Yeah I guess you could easily say it’s not the fault of the middle class either. Just thought it was a surprising stat. The biggest transfer of wealth to the super rich was through the Covid era. The largest surge in billionaire wealth since records began. Since the start of the pandemic, the world's richest 1% increased their wealth by 21 trillion. Politicians always go to the highest bidder and unfortunately if you’re in the middle class you don’t get to do much bidding.

Good summary article on the current state of personal finances. The actual numbers may surprise many. (Hint: Personal debt to income is at its lowest level since the 90’s.) [Hidden Content] Well done to those who are finally becoming more financially responsible. This is the real key to personal freedom. -

Jasper is Open... Crumedy leaving for FB Travis
WOSdrummer99 replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Football
Think he applied there once before. Here too and we know how they both turned out. Now that the world has seen the results of the most talked about coaching hire SETXsports history. Maybe a former coordinator of a big rival would work for Jasper. Shoemaker was a 4th place finisher in 6A but just dropped to 5Ad1 in a tough district with the College Station and Pflugerville teams. I've also seen some prospect rankings that included some of his players. Not sure if he'd be interested at this point. - Today

Breaking News - TRUMP to release EPSTEIN files and client list!
mat replied to HuntersLaptop2028's topic in Political Forum
I have said it will be very difficult to get convictions. However, a large part of that is because of the heavily redacted documents. Why so many reductions if people aren’t being protected? Our justice department is not doing their job, simply acting as directed by Trump. -

TheMissingBand replied to OlDawg's topic in Political Forum
When the Feds kept raising rates, and the extra money people received ran out, they had to pull back some. That helped cool inflation as well. Where’ve you been, sir? Excellent analysis. I think the higher interest rates are keeping inflation lower, the two point reduction in the fed rate that trump is demanding with add multiple points to the inflation rate, in my estimation. It’s all relevant. Two point drop in mortgages and the housing market will take off like we haven’t seen in years. Demand will far exceed supply and prices will soar, etc… he wants the lower interest rates so that our debt payments will decrease and continuing to borrow at the federal level won’t sting so badly. But it’ll be a really rough time for those of us already struggling with high prices. I’m not a tinfoil hat kind of person, but I’m starting to wonder if these poor fiscal policies aren’t merely mismanagement, but instead pushing us towards an alternative to the dollar that his family keeps pushing. -

Silsbee vs Madisonville Predictions
TheSixthMan replied to Boogy1000's topic in High School Boys Basketball
Silsbee by 8. Silsbee might not be what they have been in the past, but they are still Silsbee. As long as they take care of the ball and don’t get killed on the boards they should be fine. -
Interesting 1st Round match ups
TheSixthMan replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
Very interesting first round matchup. HJ has thrived in the type and style of game Wheatley is going to want to play, I think HJ’s size and coaching will be the difference. So it should be a good one! This is one of those games, that HJ’s first round matchup could potentially be a tougher game than the next few rounds. -

This wasn't an issue when I worked for the DOJ. It is supposed to be nonpartisan. Government jobs in the federal public service are designed to be non-partisan, serving the government of the day with loyalty and neutrality regardless of political stripe. Staffing is based on merit, ensuring a neutral, competent workforce. While employees retain rights to engage in political activities (like voting or attending rallies), they must maintain impartiality and avoid conflicts of interest, especially in high-visibility roles.

If, a big if, a Republican can win the Governor’s seat, then I think he could hound the commie cities into “possibly” getting their acts together. 🤷♂️

This ain’t like losing a house seat. Dems control the big cities LA, SF, SD, etc….but the rest of the state is red. Get your popcorn ready. Lmao.
