    this is depressing, guess we don't want any stinking equality. What a world.

    If you are driving a vehicle that requires 94 octane, I doubt the price of gas is a concern.

    My disagree. This one I bought for $6k that runs on 94 and I am concerned.

    Hell when a full tank goes from an average of $25 a tank of 87 to $45-$50 on our Element, I still feel the sting.

    Trump touts a safer America through securing the borders… With this appointment I’m not feeling safer….

    All three candidates for Mass. governor promise transparency. They also say they won’t release their tax returns.

    It’s just nice to see you finally admit that the Republicans are corrupt. We know you’re not getting out your vote for Maura…. And I take it you would never vote for a corrupt politician in the two other Republican candidates…… I take it you’re staying home this election cycle?

    I always vote for the republican if one is running. If not, I dont vote.

    If the Trumps say they have a great deal for you, run.

    Risking little of their own money, the US president and his sons have added at least $2.3 billion to the family fortune from their main crypto ventures, while the investors they've wooed have taken a $2.3 billion hit, a Reuters examination found.

    I don't know anybody who likes war or wants it.

    In the middle of this one, it sucks, for a lot of people, more than we realize.

    But this morning I was wondering if down the road, we might look back on this war and say it had to happen and the world is a better place because of it. Again, I don't know who wants war. If we look back at WWII, had the Allies not engaged and won, the world might be worse off. It just makes me think the end may justify the means.

    This is just thinking out loud... I don't know...

    War rarely is initiated by the "common folks", rather it is the institutions of religion and government that are oppressive and callously spendthrift with their lives. Lives are not sacred to power. Scum also rises.
