Trump says he'll issue $2,000 tariff dividend to all except 'high-income people'

What's high income 30k a year or more? Such a joke...

The $2,000 dividend could come in lots of forms, in lots of ways, George," Bessent told anchor George Stephanopoulos. "You know, it could be just the tax decreases that we are seeing on the president's agenda -- you know, no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, deductibility of auto loans."

Oh so no money for you

Trump expected to sign executive order prioritizing federal funding for school choice programs

More broadly, it directs the Department of Education to prioritize school choice programs through its discretionary grant programs, and orders the Department of Health and Human Services to issue guidance on how states receiving block grants for families and children can use those funds to support private and faith-based institutions. >

So basically public schools are bad? Why should the public pay for private schooling?

Let me tell you a story... I sold off all my Bitcoin and put it all into GME stock right when it was starting to go up... Because why not right? It wasn't much like it was worth 1000 bucks or something... Because everyone said the bitcoin bubble was going to pop or something... And then Bitcoin went from 30k to 60k in like two months... And now it's closer to 100k

Long story short I make bad choices and no fuckin way I'm selling my GME for a loss just for it to double or triple again in two months

These are the people who have basically lived their lives going through active shooter drills and know they have more than a zero percent chance of being shot at or killed at school.

People dying and the threat of people dying to the younger generation is normalized at least this one time it wasn't them ... Maybe hoping something will bring change.

That's just my opinion though from someone who didn't grow up afraid of being shot at school.
