Public services cannot ‘lose’ money they can only ‘use’ money.

Yes there are areas where they can ‘use’ money more efficiently, but their purpose is to ‘use’ money to provide us services. Money that we, the taxpayers have allocated as a necessary cost for the greater good.

It is called Socialism.

The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

You know how Americans are surprised to learn that gun deaths are rare in most other countries, pedestrian-centered cities are normal, or everybody else uses metric? That, but discovering that the rest of the world moved to EVs.
It's funny how us parochial Americans generally seem to perceive that the EV revolution is stalling or reversing when in fact it's accelerating rapidly worldwide. 25% of cars sold globally in 2025 were EVs!

It's mostly just the US that's being left behind

Bill was a staunch anti vaxxer too. All the people that initially invested in TPUSA are if I’m not mistaken. He got some Tex West type to seed right wing lab. Dude looks like Doug Dimmedome’s cousin.
Turning Point USA was founded in 2012 by Charlie Kirk and Bill Montgomery

Two of their major policy pushes were a more prominent gun culture and zero COVID restrictions

Bill Montgomery died to the COVID virus

Charlie Kirk died to gun violence

Boosting for El and hoping some of my followers can help them with January rent. It's rough out there for freelancers right now and El really needs to work from home.
Hanging out at $50 of the $925 I need to pay Jan. rent.
Could a couple of folks help me get that to $65 by tomorrow morning?

Also: Thanks for sharing my posts and increasing visibility. I know it’s a busy week for a lot of people—the time you invest makes a big difference.

Beautiful piece.
I find it incredibly difficult to write about my Jewishness. I didn't want to write this, but I did.

We need to re-embrace complexity and nuance in thinking about and discussing the Jewish future.
