Best vehicle to buy is one you could live in fulltime in future if misfortune enters you life.
...or at least sleep in comfortably.
People with jobs are sleeping in their vehicles...not enough income to buy food and pay rent.

That is why it is important for someone in the family to rise to the top to help future generations. I can rise, then my children can always have food and shelter at my vineyard and winery, they will always have a room at the winery, and they will always have an income from selling wine. If I rise, and invest wisely, then my future generations will always have food and shelter.

Here is a vineyard and winery for sale in Tuscany, making Chianti wine, with the option of buying more land to make more wine. I want to own a vineyard and winery in Tuscany, and this is the type of thing I would be interested in doing.

It would take a lot of workers to run and maintain such a venture, but I can get workers from the Philippines. The Filipinos love Italy. I could hire Filipinos to help me.

And then future generations will always have a place to live and an income.

And on the issue of the people sleeping in their cars, the USA needs to have hostels like in Rome, Italy, where people can take a nice hot shower and where they can sleep in a nice comfortable bed for $15 per night.

Salute,

Tony V.

 Well, look, first of all, the significant reason why prices are up is because of COVID affecting the supply chain.   

Number two, if you take a look at, you know, gas prices and you take a look at oil prices, that is a consequence of, thus far, the refusal of Russia or the OPEC nations to pump more oil.  And...





 


Not exactly what kid said he said, and  as you read further Biden explains how the economy is also moving in the right direction, and we are much better off than LAST Thanksgiving, which is true.

Its just amazing how those in charge continue to count all the Republican votes first, finding out how many Dem votes they need to come up with to overtake..

Here's a good explanation as to why blaming Biden for rising gas prices is pretty much purely political, as we have come to expect from the right: https://www.tuscaloosanews.com/story/news/2021/10/30/gary-cosby-jr-gas-prices-up-but-president-biden-blame/6154623001/

Well, kid, the fact that the economy is moving upward is also a reason why there is inflation. Pent up demand and supply chain issues do create inflation. That's pretty basic stuff.

But I agree. How could we not be better off this Thanksgiving having no Trump in the White House?

In NJ, they count by county. Some counties are more diverse than others. Essex and Hudson and Union are not the same as Morris or Burlington or Ocean.

It's not a plot, it's where New Jerseyans have chose to segregate themselves.

Totally believable! I think I only changed the oil twice in the last 2 years.

Yes.  Basically

In other words, "No."

YOU find the fucking transcript if you are claiming he "basically" said it.

And do you disagree?!
