update: This law passed unanimously on Nov 17 - https://lims.dccouncil.us/Legislation/B23-0171
Insanity of the political class

A secret process whereby parents are deliberately cut out of the vaccination decision process
The new laws not only proposes to cut parents out of the decision making process but it also proposes to create mechanisms by which the billing for a vaccine is done secretly and directly with the insurance companies so parents don’t know and can’t stop it.

DC Council to make final vote on bill that would allow minors to get vaccines without parental consent

US has been shielded from reality by wars started to keep the price/barrel down. That's why they like Canadian oil, it's not blood stained. :xf.rolleyes:

We pay less than $2.50 including federal and state tax. Cheap energy keeps cost of production, transportation low.

People will pay more for groceries. More for electricity, more to heat and cool their homes. Even water will cost more.

Pres. Trump grew the middle class and lowered the poverty rate for the first time in a generation. He understands how the economy works.

Get that?? Trump helped struggling families join the middle class by providing good jobs, increasing spending power and keeping inflation low.

You're wrong. We exploited our own energy reserves to lower energy cost. Wars are expensive; again Trump understands and has fought from day one to end the "endless wars" GW Bush and Barack Obama started.

When Bush and Obama were President fuel prices increased every year. They nearly doubled under Obama.

Plenty of jobs in an emerging renewable energy market, plus cleanup and capping old wells. That's sustainable, not reliance on foreign reserves. Why else would US import oil?

Welcome to corporate greed. I wouldn't exactly say I'm wrong, lol, facts don't lie:

The top five sources of U.S. total petroleum (including crude oil) imports by share of total petroleum imports in 2019 were:

  • Canada 49%
  • Mexico7%
  • Saudi Arabia6%
  • Russia6%
  • Colombia4%
The top five sources of U.S. crude oil imports by share of total crude oil imports in 2019 were:
  • Canada 56%
  • Mexico9%
  • Saudi Arabia7%
  • Iraq5%
  • Colombia5%

That's spin. Fuel prices track crude oi prices, refinery capacity and demand. Overall, higher prices under Obama. Higher demand, production AND lower prices under Trump.

Just like unemployment. Many people worked two jobs to make ends meet before 2015. Trump created GOOD jobs and increased spending power.

Cry, bitch, lie, post a story from a progressive trog working for business.com. It won't change the truth. More people worked good jobs and were paid more in Trump's economy.

No man, the economy is not good right now. Prices were lower in Obama's last 2 years than under the Trump admin.

It's funny how you guys want to pretend this year didn't happen.

Things come up in life, during his 4 years in office, it's how you deal with it. Trump failed, hence our bad economy now.

Here's a checklist for your information, look at 2001 change from 2000, tell me war had nothing to do with it. Facts don't lie.

How many wars for oil has President Trump started??

Show attachment 174465

:xf.laugh::xf.laugh::xf.laugh: Do you think everybody here is just stupid? The article is 2013, did Trump take office in 2013? He took office 4 years later.

Don't try to be slick, it's never worked for you.

Clown. Barack Obama was President when prices doubled. Takes a real genius to make prices go up during a recession.

You just got busted, he was President another 4 years after that article.

Trump will be leaving office with the economy in worse shape than he received it. Facts.

So with Michigan, Trump officially will be a one term, impeached, former President that lost the popular vote twice. Wow.

If Trump had had his way, US would've been another Venezuela together with a China-like environment.
