I don't know about Canada, but as for the USA, I hope there are more choices than just Radical Left and MAGA.

"Billionaire" is what it is. But let's keep in mind that $25M in 1850 = roughly $1B in 2025.

1937 was the year of his death. I think he made Billionaire years earlier.

Well, I think we need to consider: for instance (if my research is correct), Astor's $25M in 1848 is roughly $150B in 2025. Also we should consider the % of the economy a rich people controlled back in the past.

Myself, I am beyond caring if it is fair or not fair. Fair or not, the rich need to be taxed more, and paid less. I think tackling most of society's problems begins there.

Third party funds must be deposited in the U.S. Treasury and appropriated by Congress and apart from that I believe service members aren’t allowed to accept outside compensation so

#truTV showed a graphic about #FreddieFreeman being the active leader in Hits. But it left out he also leads in: Runs, Doubles, RBIs, Total Bases, and being walked intentionally. #MLB

Also, so what if u don't speak #Spanish? It's ok to listen to songs with lyrics you don't understand, isn't it? Consider all of the Spanish speaking fans who listen to Iron Maiden, Metallica, and many others. It's all good.

If #BadBunny sings in #Castellano / #Español, why is his stage name in #English? Just wondering. Nothing against him. I'm cool with him performing at the SuperBowl, though I don't know much about him or his music yet.

I watch some of President Trump's speech at Quantico. He is a stark contrast to what my mind's eye vision of how a military officers acts. He has no "military bearing" whatsoever. I understand he is a civilian, but to act like that as the CinC in such a setting is mindboggling.

Winfield Scott, Commanding General of the USA 1841-1861 (when he was about 55-75 years old). Trump and Hegseth would have kicked him out due to lack of physical fitness?
