A few months old but I noticed the contrast between the rest of Europe and Russia, Belarus.

probably a good idea to take that Gasoline prices and divide it by earnings to determine a ratio to get a better idea ..

for example, while the price seems very high in Ice Land, the wares are 6x higher that in Russia .. while the gasoline is only 3x higher ..

And tell me why they are not fast tracking to Hydrogen powered vehicles. Hydrogen fuel that could be made anywhere as needed? Is it because it is not a fast enough payback or limited payback in comparison. Is it REALLY about the environment and protecting the publics health or is it profits?

They warned of nuclear third world war if DJT had the “football”. More hypocrisy - look where we are with Biden.
So True. It was WWIII hysteria with Trump, heralded from every possible msm rooftop. CNN and MSNB had hours upon hours of talk and hysteria on the D.J.T. WWIII was inevitable.

But Barr did talk this way. I do think if Trump got back in office that he'd try his best to clean house of the Deep State, most probably even reformatting the FBI and CIA as best he could.

I think that was their biggest fear of a second term and the reason for the planneddemic and mail in ballots. And even more so now that Trump even knows better who are in the DS.

California Defaults On $18.6 Billion In Debt, Saddling Employers With The Expense

California's recent decision not to pay back some $20 billion borrowed from the federal government to cover unemployment benefits during the pandemic will fall on the shoulders of employers, according to experts.


California Governor Gavin Newsom (D)

"The state should have taken care of the loans with the COVID money it received from the government in 2021," said Marc Joffe, policy analyst at the Cato Institute—a public policy think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C., in a statement to the Epoch Times.

In the state's proposed 2023-2024 budget, $750 million was allocated to start paying down the loans, until Governor Gavin Newsom nixed the provision in early January, leaving businesses in the state responsible for the loans, as mandated by federal regulations - so that the federal unemployment tax rate of .6 percent will increase by .3% per year starting in 2023 until the loan is extinguished.

"California is just not really an employer-friendly state," said Joffe. "This one thing will not be a difference between a business remaining open or closing, but it’s just another burden on top of the many burdens the state puts on employers."

In total, 22 states borrowed money for unemployment insurance from the federal government. All but four, California, Colorado, Connecticut, and New York, have paid back their debts - with California owing the most by far at $18.6 billion as of May 2, followed by New York at $8 billion, Connecticut at $187 million and Colorado at $77 million, according to data from the US Treasury.

Exactly why I am voting for Trump. He stands the best chance of cleaning house in Washington.
