I don't know who's dumber: kidcarter8 or kiidcarter8.  It probably merits discussion.  Or maybe not.  Let's just call them both stupid and be done with it.

That is how that kind of worm acknowledges defeat. All of anything his kind has is stolen.

That is a great thing about Battle Mountain, Nevada, is that there are no natural disasters there, no tornadoes, no hurricanes, no earthquakes, and the land is only $1,000 per acre. The only thing, Battle Mountain is cold in the winter and it snows in the winter. And gambling is legal in Nevada, so they can have fun and gamble, etc, Nevada is a fun state.

Salute,

Tony V.

I only like looking at snow...'winter wonderlands' in movies, in Youtube videos.
Beautiful to look at. Also wonderful in America are the beautiful autumn leaves as the trees turn a rainbow of colours.
There sure are some pretty towns.

Living in snow is not for me. You shovel all the snow off your driveway, go to bed, wake in the morning and there's 3ft of snow back on the driveway.

The USA is nice if you have good schools and trade.

We need to make our people wise, and then give them trade.

Like the Business School at Pepperdine.

And the coal miners in Kentucky need great schools.

Salute,

Tony V.

Rick Caruso can still serve the City of Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass can make him her assistant on the issue of housing for the homeless, while Mayor Bass works on all of the other issues pertaining to running the City then she can sign on Rick Caruso to deal solely with the issue of building housing for the homeless. Rick Caruso can be the Chief of Housing for the Homeless for Mayor Bass. She can sign Rick Caruso on and she can make him her assistant.

Salute,

Tony V.

He could donate a couple hundred million to city projects and walk away. He will not because in his heart he loves his money more than he loves LA. The voters saw that.

He did not spend ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS to be an assistant.

He could have spent that money on the homeless

This is a big fucking deal.



https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/11/17/arizona-voter-id-ballot-measure/
But not a surprise. A state where the majority of people vote using mail in ballots is a poor bet to make that process harder. Well, the Repo candidate for Secretary of State campaigned against the process, even after it was revealed he voted by mail in something like 14 of the last 15 elections, so there are hypocrites out there who think OTHER PEOPLE and we know who the others are voting by mail is an issue but their doing so is not.

I live in Indian country, so I hear a lot of voting horror stories.  But Arizona often wins the giant hurdle award.  In 2016 and 2018, members of the Paiute nation in Arizona had to travel 280 miles to vote. One way.

The article concludes the election was Historical?
Hysterical.
It was a statistical tie proving only that it is folly to try and gild a lily.

One hundred million dollars will not go very far towards building housing for the homeless in Los Angeles where a 3 bedroom house costs a million dollars by itself. Santorini, Greece style high density apartments are the way to go, with swimming pools and tennis courts, and you can paint the housing bright cheerful colors like they do in Greece, etc. Then you can add public libraries, etc.

And remember that Battle Mountain, Nevada, has land for $1,000 per acre, for one hundred million dollars you could buy one hundred thousand acres. You could build a lot of housing on one hundred thousand acres. Compared to only one hundred 3 bedroom houses in California. Battle Mountain, Nevada, is a great value for the money.

Salute,

Tony V.

If only the people at the top and developers like Rick Caruso would discover Battle Mountain, Nevada, as people work to create housing for the homeless and for the refugees, etc. You get it, but we need for the people at the top to get it. The homeless can have housing like in Santorini, Greece, for cheap. Bambu thought the housing in Greece was for the rich people, the homeless can live in beautiful housing like the rich people. The housing can be great for a low price. As people choose to care about the homeless, and as people look for solutions to help the homeless, then they need to look at options such as cheap land in Battle Mountain.

You get it, we need for the people at the top to understand.

Salute,

Tony V.
