With rampant runaway inflation, high energy costs, people unwilling to work, and all of the other failures this administration has caused, it will be the only possible outcome.

Vernon Taylor

Always worried when Dems are elected.

Adam

Yet nobody, NOBODY has proved there was any fraud in the election. As JH said, no AG has filed a case regarding election fraud. Just keep believing in the big lie

Lisa Gore

Because duh. Our country is in economic free fall and the Biden Admin caused it. Reopen the Keystone Pipeline, stop the flow of illegal immigrants, and have more pride in our country...but they are steering us to “accept less” one admin said don’t have pets they cost $. We need Trump back ASAP!

Adam I get what you are trying to say but disinformation or news bias is not something strictly republican or democrat everyone falls for it. Do I agree with what Lisa says most of the time? No, but articles like that won't help where conversations can be better used

Politicians are out for themselves not the people who hey are suppose to be serving

Adam

Fraudulent election had nothing to do about the question of the day. Yes the right wing people keep throwing fraud out at every chance. Yet still no proof of it.

The economy is actually in pretty good shape except for some inflation. Oil is a global commodity and presidents have very little control of gas prices. Jobs are plentiful and grocery stores can`t get enough checkout operators because there are plenty of better paying jobs to be had elsewhere

It`s not hard to compete with you Maxy. I don`t even have to shift out of first gear

Max

One of your more skillful responses, or did you have help?

MAX, There wasn`t room. Your head was already there

Your head is stuck in the sand again, or somewhere.

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

Hybrid gang stay winning

Steve Baumann

Far bigger issues than fuel prices

Matt Loganbill

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

Steve Baumann

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Fred

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

Max

You finally got one right. Did you have help?

Zaos Gonzolez

Your own safety is your own responsibility.
