Re: Brigham Young, critic of racism

I find the “choose to stand with him” language as fresh and moving as “use the Force” and “he’s our only hope.”

Will China's housing market woes end with a global financial crisis?
Now that is something that could have a huge impact on the economy.

Since it is Kerry's Birthday, perhaps it would not be too late to sing the Happy Birthday song on January 25th.
That sounds like a great idea!

Message me here if you want to attend. https://scontent-mia3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/271850807_10222626280137946_1456380902245734428_n.jpg?_nc_cat=100&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=825194&_...

Re: Biden's Economy?

The evidence doesn't support that. The last five recessions over the past 40 years all started under Republican administrations. Is that just some crazy coincidence? Congress passes annual budgets based on the sitting President's agenda. That's no small thing. And if Trump were still in office he'd...
