    Right, I was able to disagree without being disagreeable before I left high school. Because I was taught basic respect I guess. But it is a rare skill today.
    In part because the unholy two do not want us to debate openly and figure out the half truths or that we are being conned by both major parties and that they should be fired

    So We have a few thing that I would like to get Midcan5's opinion on

    #1 one of the first things that the Biden administration did was to shut down several pipelines around the country, telling us that these were dangerous to the environment.

    We now know that the shipment of this oil, natural gas and chemicals are traveling on trains, most of which are owned by Warren Buffet. And we have had many accidents that have actually caused environmental damage.

    This policy has also raised the price of Gas, Heating fuels, and many other products to the citizens of this country!

    Tell me how you feel about a lie that would cost this much and put so many people in financial hardship?

    #2 I would not put this all on Biden but one of the things that he has been taking credit for is the Affordable Care Act. This has devastated health insurance of the vast majority of the nation. Just my company the out of pocket is more than 3 times as much, premiums and went up more than 5 times what they were and that has been passe on to employee's which they can't afford and thus we have plans that don't cover near as much.

    Many no longer have Doctors and Hospitals that accept the obamacare insurance and thousands upon thousands had to find new providers

    #3 WE have been told by this administration that the southern border is closed, it is safe that minimal drugs and NO terrorist have been coming into the country. There have been ZERO border patrol or law enforcement that have backed these lies, and have testified to just the opposite. it is a real problem that the American people are being lied to about With a cost of $115.9 billion annually

    Has Midcan really ever answered any question in the past? He will post someone else's response but he does not know how to speak for himself.

    If he comes back to this thread, it will not be to answer my questions, But he will likely not retrun and try again in a few days. His masters have told him this is something that is good to get out there.

    hmmm, I wonder if Midcam is an A-I communication learning experiment and should be responded to as such.
