#1 Part of why working remote could never last is that it enables living outside of cities, which the left hates.

#2 This administration is going to take a decade and a lot of s scouring powder to remove.

#3 Since the Great Society of LBJ, with a few hiccups like Reagan and Trump, every lurch leftward has never been fully corrected.

The Bidet Administration is by far the hardest veer towards Marxist Socialism, and I see little hope of any huge rightward turn given how many depend on some form of government income. Every act of sanity in the conservative America First playbook will be decried as "racist, homophobic, xenophobic, anti-climate and cruel".

The American body politic is increasingly composed of a sad mix of low-information voters, clueless immigrants here for the sweet ride, and generations of younger adults who were never taught critical thinking or their cultural birthrights. but rather short attention-span emotional reasoning, visual not literary, the sad group-think conformity of Facebook and Twitter.

#4 This is Newsom's plan for California put on steroids and applied to the entire country. The lie is that they want upward mobility for "people of color and underserved communities". So, of course you are a rayciss if you oppose the plan. But the real aim is to destroy America as we know it, to destroy the working class and the middle class and to destroy prosperous communities in the suburbs so they can be replaced with dense, poverty stricken blue cities. Property values in the suburbs will decline as new tenements are built and populated with people who know absolutely nothing about what it takes to create value, accumulate wealth and pass it to future generations. After all, what will these people do for jobs in their new neighborhoods that they couldn't do in their old neighborhoods? They won't get better educations. Test scores in their new "low poverty" schools will decline along with discipline. Drop out rates will increase. Because there are not enough native born "people of color and underserved communities" to fill the new tenements, many of the newcomers will be immigrants, legal or otherwise, from Third World countries. If this was not so, they could simply renovate existing slums. It's all coming to a neighborhood near you.

#5 I live in a well-to-do suburb in South Carolina, and two black families have bought houses on my block in the last two years. They are responsible, take care of their properties, take part in subdivision activities, and are welcome additions to the neighborhood. WITHOUT any federal coercion, please note.

It is not about race. It is about--well, I'm not sure what it is about, but race does not enter into the equation.

#6 No, Tom, it is not about race. There are plenty of responsible blacks and even more irresponsible whites. Race is merely a cloaking device. It's about communism.
