  1. Can we stop providing aid to Ukraine? We do not need ti be there anymore. Were not even providing aid anymore, we are literally boosting their economy

  2. We shouldn't have two parties and we never get an outside party. The system is rigged and seems like the American is ok with it or don't know either way it's clear the government doesn't work for us.

  3. Woodsheds:
    Fellow Americans: Trust Jesus as your savior. In his death and resurrection paying the penalty for your all-time sins. And politically, abide in this: every bit of it is 100% biblical :
    We get to keep the gross amount of our paycheck. NO MORE INCOME TAXES ! instead, an IRS agent with a military serviceman go door to door asking for cash donations. ( don’t worry it’s DONATIONS, not CONFISCATIONS ) Monies pooled in a large bldg. ( pentagon?) bi-monthly or so, where the 535 representatives get a woodshed to hold the donated cash. Twice a month, all Dept heads of govt walk around to each shed requesting cash. Reps give it out according to how they know constituents demand. money pile is divided a third to senate, and that third further divided evenly between all 100 senators., then a third to the house – divided evenly among all 435 members, and a third to the President. Voting for all these 535 reps is to be done monthly by everyone’s phone- in a way where cheating can’t happen. We can look at the pie chart of where our reps spent the money, and vote to fire them if we don’t like the looks of the pie chart. A Senator may get 36 monthly terms, then may serve no more on this planet or in their lifetime. The House can have 24 monthly terms, and then no more. The President should be up for election once a year, and have an 8 term limit.
    Departments like department of education, department of urban housing , FBI, FDA, or dept of whatever will be receiving way less money. If they receive 0 money – then the entire department is officially fired and it’s done directly by the people of this country and the will of the people is finally happening. Anything less than this system – we will have more of the same like the past. People don’t like to be slaves. Gov’t taking 20 to 50% of our money continuously means we’re half slaves. If we are half slaves, then we are pretty much total slaves to the gov’t. Some people won’t like the idea of a soldier defending our country with gun standing at your door , and an IRS agent with him. The point is you have to understand they are collecting DONATIONS , and we are keeping the GROSS amount of our paycheck. Come on, get real, this is a beautiful system. Spread the word by copying and pasting this and sending it to all contacts on your phone, writing or calling your representatives in Congress. We need this kind of government.
    🎵 🎵 TRUST AND OBEY 🎵 🎵 . Why should we tarry when Jesus is healing? Healing for you and for me. Come home. God will make a way where there seems to be no way. Rock of ages – cleft for me – let me hide myself in thee.

  4. Just like every other time they threaten a shutdown. Are we supposed to be impressed?

    I'll be impressed when they're so fiscally responsible we never hear about a shutdown again.
