Prediction time 2021
 
Cancel culture, public shaming, and performative wokeness, will be HUGE this year.

Corporate powers are about to make life as difficult as possible for anyone not "getting with the program". -- and they're going to have the backing of the entire federal government (Democratic unchecked power). They will go too far. It is inevitable.

Meanwhile they’re typically not in a position to lecture the public about anything, but they routinely do — loudly.

The way I see it...we've gotten too comfortable in this country, and this has made us soft. Softness is bad for both body and mind. If tough times are coming, and we can't control these changing conditions...then we can at least find solace in the fact that tough times create tough people. And we can all use a little more "toughness", IMO.

With the emergence of the New Year...I have promised myself that I would be more optimistic about things. And, being true to my newly-adopted beliefs...I predict that we'll manage just fine. :ThmbUp:

The left will further cripple our education system by any means necessary. Its a whole lot easier to control millions of stupid people than educated people.

Do you mean because of climate change? Maybe we should let the Earth heat up, it could toughen us up without spending us back to the Stone Age.

How many do you suppose refused their stimulus checks? IMO, everybody loves a freebie. It's just that some can't come out and admit it.

At least you agree it isn't a "freebie".

Stimulus checks are taxable?

Somebody today mentioned they weren't...I figured they were wrong...everything is taxable...lol

If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet

'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the ta

They are not taxable income. They are an "advance tax credit" that they are giving you now instead of when you file your taxes.
