The 30-year mortgage rate has been higher than today's rate for most of history, with October 1981 being the most extreme example when the average weekly rate reached a record high of 18.63%. Rates were higher than today's rate throughout the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and parts of the 2000s.

Yes, there can be multiple reasons for shit happening.

Piss off, Cheesy. You don't get to call me a coward and the carry on a conversation with me.

Trump is an awful President in a long line of awful Presidents. I can't help you with your inability to understand that there are not just two sides in politics. 😉

No.

Did you not read what I wrote or just not understand it?

I think EVERY administration is fucking terrible, Cheesy.

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 18h

I agree. It hasn't been done and now it's starting to "pile up" so-to-speak, because both Dems and Reps use it as a vote-getting tool.

I still, however, want illegals to go back to wherever they came from and go to the back of the immigration line.

Well, Cheesy, I can actually want illegals gone without wanting the State to resort to violence to do it.

I know, it's amazing that anyone can think like that.

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 18h

No, it's not. Every President and every Congress in the last 50 years have had the opportunity to decrease the level of illegals in the U.S. just by increasing the resources (agents and courts) to support the case load.

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 18h

It's possible. Are you denying it?

1

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 18h

I don't know. Perhaps they have an agenda.

The illegal population surged by 3.5 million from 2021 to 2023.

If Biden managed the backlog so well, why are the 15 million illegals in the country?

1

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 18h

I bet you do. Though I'm not sure ICE can actually "love" anything since it's individuals in the agency doing the beatings.

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 19h

I have to wonder why the Democrats are so against removing illegals in the first place. If they aren't here, the issue goes away.

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 19h

I think I said that I don't believe they should be denied healthcare. I believe I said that I question why they are here illegally and getting healthcare and not in their country getting healthcare.

Illegals. They don't belong here. ;)

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 19h

Beats me. I don't think I ever said anything about that. I was just pointing out that, in a lot of places, property tax is not the primary funder of school districts.

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 19h

To me, once again, as an American citizen, I support people that come to the U.S. legally and not those that do not.

Should I reword that for you another 1/2 dozen times?

1

Max Overload @theoriginalmax.bsky.social · 19h

Property taxes are typically only 45-50% of funding for school districts. This, of course, varies by State and district. Federal funding typically funds some 8-10% and the rest comes from State coffers.

When NPR claims healthcare is a human right, do they view medical professionals as slaves?
