The Hamas terror attack on Israel was an atrocity that called for a response . Mass punishment and brutal revenge, however, are not a wise or effective response. The Israel bombings have led to a death toll among Gazans, many times more than the Israelis killed or taken hostage in October, and millions left homeless and starving without access to medical care or even clean water. This will only strengthen support for Hamas. There is no reason for Americans, or Israelis, to support these stupid tactics of the Netanyahu regime. Friends don’t help friends kill their neighbors’ children.
“They” have no power to decrease the cost of living, unless you are referring to large corporations. Contrary to what you may hear from right wing propaganda media, we do not live in a socialist country. There are no price controls at all, no caps on usurious fees charged for credit. We do have a minimum wage that often does not even allow for full-time working people to pay for ordinary rent and groceries, forget medical bills, child care or an occasional night out.
Wise choices on climate policy, although probably inadequate. We need drastic action to counter climate warming. Cooperation of all nations is needed. Meanwhile, right wingers are doing all they can to prevent progress in both domestic and foreign policy, including blocking needed aid to our allies, and spreading lies. This cartoon is one example of their dishonest behavior..
You take out a student loan. You make required payments for years. The total of your payments have farmexceeded the original amount of the loan. Now you owe more than you borrowed in the first place. Common scenario.
What a stunning rebuke! So, I guess if the “Israeli people” tell us so, we have no choice but to continue sending our American tax dollars and military aid to Israel.
