That provision is called inflation. It is costing people a lot more than $1,000, and it is impacting everyone. People are going to feel it even more as the impacts of the Fed's interest rate hikes start to really bite into economic growth. We are all going to feel the effects of stupid voting patterns and it could justifiably lead to democrats losing power nearly everywhere for a generation.
Is going to get someone killed? It is already getting people killed. A democrat killed a kid who he thought was an extreme republican but running him over with an SUV. Elsewhere in Michigan an 84-year old was shot by a pro-choice advocate for voicing a pro-life opinion. Unlike the 18-year old kid, the 84-year old woman survived.
If I took you seriously, I could easily match 5 to your every 1.
Right now fear and outrage are the dominating driving forces of our political machine. It is the outcome of twitter and facebook changing our entire discourse from articles with real details to soundbites. We have always been swayed by soundbites, but never have we had so many such soundbites, from so many people, driving such strong groupthink and mob mentality as we have now in facebook, twitter and other social media. In seconds you can find hundreds of people who will happily reinforce your own biases and raise it to a fever pitch. That is what you are seeing now directly from the political leaders themselves, who are simply parroting what they have already reinforced on social media. Any and all discourse overwhelmed by waves and waves of catchy slogans and destructive hyperbolic rhetoric in less than 280 characters at a time. It will ultimately be the downfall of the country, imo. First, the dangers of the 2-party system destroying actual choice and the need for impactful policy-making, now the onslaught of social media dragging the masses along for the ride. We are well on our way down the slippery slope.
Have you read this forum lately? It is filled with posters finding the most extreme snips they can find and reposting it here to get people to fear and hate a broad swath of people. Maybe posters could say MTG is a low-IQ lunatic who says some inflammatory stuff but she has no real institutional power and I'm glad she doesn't represent my congressional district. But no. It is "Look at this crazy thing republicans said. They are a fascist cancer."
Yawn boring.

That would be enough for me to not vote for him. I really couldn't care less about Hershel Walker's affairs or abortion but mistreating dogs is a bridge too far. Eff that guy.People who do this to other forms of life, not my kind of people…
Dr. Oz’s Scientific Experiments Killed Over 300 Dogs, Entire Litter of Puppies
Columbia's internal investigation found that Oz's research team inflicted extensive suffering on canine test subjects in violation of the Animal Welfare Act.
In the early 2000s, testimony from a whistleblower and veterinarian named Catherine Dell’Orto about Oz’s research detailed extensive suffering inflicted on his team’s canine test subjects, including multiple violations of the Animal Welfare Act, which sets minimum standards of care for dogs, cats, primates, rabbits, and other animals in the possession of animal dealers and laboratories. The law specifically requires researchers and breeders to use pain-relieving drugs or euthanasia on the animals, and not use paralytics without anesthesia, or experiment multiple times on the same animal.
Dell’Orto testified that a dog experimented on by Oz’s team experienced lethargy, vomiting, paralysis, and kidney failure, but wasn’t euthanized for a full two days. She alleged other truly horrifying examples of gratuitously cruel treatment of dogs, including at least one dog who was kept alive for a month for continued experimentation despite her unstable, painful condition, despite how data from her continued experimentation was deemed unusable. According to Dell’Orto, one Oz-led study resulted in a litter of puppies being killed by intracardiac injection with syringes of expired drugs inserted in their hearts without any sedation. Upon being killed, the puppies were allegedly left in a garbage bag with living puppies who were their littermates.

On a serious note, this is one of the top issues in this century; how we distribute and consume information. It effects:
