Time is critical. But I'm probably way off for being curious. I don't trust D's or Elon or Biden. Not trusting any of them is a very good place to start. Business people (like Elon) are first and foremost concerned about money and access to power through politicians. Politicians, either party, are concerned about reelection and keeping themselves above the common man……and money. If you want to trust something, trust those facts. 1 Link to comment

Are you guys saying there are politicians and/or ultra rich CEOs we should trust? Because that seems misguided at best and trending towards really effin dangerous. I could name many people I trust, but you would have no clue who they are because their names are not in the news. 3 1 Link to comment

But he clearly gets his news and opinions from some trustworthy source. We asked him to tell us who. Not really sure what's so hard to understand about that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 1 1 Link to comment

So it’s a discussion about trustworthy news sources and not specific persons? I may have jumped into the middle without understanding the context. However, it is getting more difficult by the day to trust any news source. Surely some are more trustworthy than others but I pretty much treat them as I do politicians and default to thinking they all have some degree of ulterior motive. 1 1 Link to comment

teachercd Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think that we can all agree that a Jack's Pizza should not cost 3.64 I know some of you refuse to place any blame on the current administration but someone needs to answer for this. 1 1 1 Link to comment
