You would think a part of the background check process for the face of the Presidential Administration would be a rudimentary review of past tweets.

According to the Brookings Institute over the course of a full-time career, the typical U.S. worker with a bachelor’s degree earns nearly $1 million more than a similar worker with just a high school diploma.

So why are we canceling debt for the highest wage earners?

"Americans have two potential paths forward," he added. "The first is my plan, the Democratic plan. The plan put forth by congressional Republicans is the other path forward.
"My plan is to lower everyday costs for hard-working Americans and lower the deficit by asking large corporations and the wealthiest Americans to not engage in price gouging and to pay their fair share in taxes.
"The Republican plan is to increase taxes on the middle-class families, let billionaires and large companies off the hook as they raise prices and reap profits in record amounts. And it's really that simple."

Of course it's the right way (democrats) or the wrong way (republicans). Always sounds so good on paper, yet many of these talking heads and big corporations pay little to no taxes. They spend millions on lobbyists to make sure they're taken care of all while shipping their workload oversees because of cheap labor. Guess what, many of these giant companies are ran by liberals, especially Tech. What incentive do that have to change a damn thing?!?

Why is the left bothered by free speech? That's a question people who are seriously concerned for the health of our democracy should be asking theirselves.

And for once, this isn't hyperbole. It actually does unevenly benefit white people's balance sheets on an individual level while the overall debt of black American's will go up. It's not even subjective racism - it's literally right there in the numbers. "If you do this it will help white people at the expense of black people (proportionally)."

Biden admin cancels massive oil and gas lease sale amid record-high gas prices (msn.com)
The Biden administration canceled one of the most high-profile oil and gas lease sales pending before the Department of the Interior Wednesday, as Americans face record-high prices at the pump, according to AAA.
The DOI halted the potential to drill for oil in over 1 million acres in Alaska's Cook Inlet, along with two lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico. The move comes as Biden has taken a few actions to combat high gas prices, despite his administration's generally hostile approach to the oil industry.
A DOI spokesperson cited a "lack of industry interest in leasing in the area" for the decision "not to move forward" with the Cook Inlet lease sale, CBS News reported. The spokesperson also said the department canceled the Gulf of Mexico leases – lease 259 and lease 261 – due to "conflicting court rulings that impacted work on these proposed lease sales."
Federal law requires DOI to stick to a five-year leasing plan for auctioning offshore leases. The department had until the end fo the current five-year plan – due to expire on June 30 – to complete the sales.
Within his first week in office, President Biden signed an executive order temporarily suspending new oil and gas leases on federal lands. The administration resumed the new leasing last month following court challenges against the ban. The administration is appealing a ruling in which Judge James Cain, a Trump appointee, struck down the ban.
