Can one of our resident libs explain why this convicted murderer was released in to the U.S. by Joe Biden? https://www.wjbc.com/2025/11/11/ice-arrests-fugitive-murderer-freed-under-biden/ https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/who-is-victoria-sorocean-convicted-killer-from-moldova-arrested-in-los-angeles/ar-AA1QeWCV

I don't really have anything specifically against 50 year mortgages, although I did run the numbers on a mortgage calculator today and for a $320k loan at 6%, the difference in monthly payment going from 30 year to 50 year was about $200, from about 2k to 2.2k. The total payments went from about 800k to about 1.2 million over the life of the loan. This is consistent with numbers someone posted up above. So the relief gained from adding 20 years to a loan just isn't that significant, and the total amount paid is pretty significant. Also, adding more people to the home buying market will likely result in higher prices to buy a home which may offset and financial benefit from adding 20 years to the length of the mortgage. That said, I've always been a proponent of buying vs. renting for the following reasons: 1) If you rent you gain nothing. Real estate pretty much always increases in value over time so unless you're bailing in a year the risk is almost non-existent and you usually gain equity over your time in a purchase that you don't in a rental. 2) You gain cost certainty with a purchase that you don't in a rental. I worked with a kid who was renting and waiting for the PERFECT starter home. He had his wish list and didn't want to buy until he found it. In the meantime he lived in a one bedroom apartment in Denver during a period of time when prices were going through the roof, both for rentals and purchases. He could have easily purchased a one bedroom condo equivalent or better than his one bedroom apartment but because it wasn't his perfect starter home he didn't want to do that and just kept moving every year when his lease expired and the rent went up too much for his taste. The reality is, we have the most incoming immigration of any country on Earth. This includes our legal immigration pathways. It's not just the illegals. So we're constantly squeezing our housing markets, especially in the more desirable cities to live in. We either build more or curb immigration to take that pressure off the market.

I don't remember all the specifics but I don't think Universal Health Care was ever on the table. However, you should know better than to trust an AI to tell you the "facts." AI's are notorious for making sh*t up.

This guy/gal has to have mental issues, RIGHT? https://nhjournal.com/former-nhdem-rep-laughton-facing-30-years-for-child-porn/

The NCAA only did it because Trump made them. It wasn't an independent decision.

Dude just Google NCAA transgender sports. That's it. You don't have to read through sh*t. FFS.

Are you not capable of using Google?

ROFLMAO. I love it when you guys try to change the subject.

I told you. Go read my posts about it. They're amazing. But, as usual, you don't want to be informed . You'd rather just be ignorant and just give away everyone else's money instead.

Since he has admitted it wasn't about cost but access we actually know the answer. And because of that, why should we ever trust the Dems with healthcare again? They flat out lied to us last time

Nothing from the libs here about the BBC scandal, huh? Figures.

Are you saying Obummer lied to us when he said his bill would make healthcare AFFORDABLE? He even put that word in the title of the bill.

The Olympics are going to ban trannies in ALL women's sports. Apparently they looked in to the science and realized that biological men ALWAYS have an advantage over biological females. Once the Olympics does it I would expect a snowball effect. Hopefully this will restore sanity to women's sports. It's ok. You all can tell us we were right all along.

Yup. The last administration literally tortured puppies. Isn't that pretty much standard Satanist ritual stuff?

Lower the cost of healthcare. That has been the solution for as long as there has been a problem. And yes I've posted HOW to do that as well. Unlike you I offer solutions. I don't just whine and suggest throwing more money in to a black hole like you always do.
