Ever heard of states handling their own system with Federally-mandated goals and programs? It's not as if education will end. If the states are held to specific standards AND they give enough of a crap to achieve them (Mississippi, are you listening?), what's the problem?None of this will help anyone if that department becomes history and they are hell bent on doing just that.
Wealthy what, individuals? Cutting jobs? Not if they want something done for them.The wealthy are cutting jobs no matter what. Why the enormous job hires over the last 4 years? Sure, Covid did a job but they hired.
Yes, the middle pays, wealthy get even more. Think about it, how did Elon make, what, $100 billion not long ago? He needs a tax cut? Really?
When business is good, middle class spends not because of tax cuts but because they have a job, companies hire or automate for more production.
If trickle down didn't work, why would it work now when we have so many more billionaires? Are they hiring? No they are cutting.
Billionaires don't care about eggs, nor do the multi millionaires. The rest below do.
Egg costs are caused because of that bird flu. Just heard government medical research is stopped. What?
It started to go up when that bird flu took a hold and decimated the chicken population. yes, price creeped up and cages were regulated.Egg prices have been high for a long time now.
Yep, rich states will still strive, others will not. It's about $$$$$. Will Mississippi tax itself to bankruptcy? And some others.Ever heard of states handling their own system with Federally-mandated goals and programs? It's not as if education will end.

Check schools for reading and math proficiency now- I guarantee that you'll see many with single-digit performance. Since standards were relaxed, the high school I attended has sunk from about 90% to about 50% and it's still considered to be a very good school- it WAS in the top 5 in Wisconsin.
Look into the budget for that department but I would recommend using something other than the DOE site.
No, I love them as they have the money to be taxed.Wealthy what, individuals? Cutting jobs? Not if they want something done for them.
Those "enormous job hires" were preceeded by people were told to stay at home, businesses and whole industries were shuttered and people received money on top of money to not work unless they were deemed 'essential'. Then, when they had stayed at home for awhile, they decided they didn't like their job, didn't like working, etc and the unemployment stats were made up. Not only that, companies that lost experienced employees hired bodies, not people who knew what the eff they're doing. If you want to give credit to Biden for that, I don't think you can be helped.
You only seem to be looking at manufacturing with your comments about hiring or automation for higher production- what about all of the service economy jobs? There are far more people working in service than manufacturing and it has been that way for a long time.
Go ahead- hate the rich and wealthy, then find a job at a company that was created by poor people. Yeah, the middle class spends when they have jobs, the rich and wealthy spend ALL OF THE TIME, whether the economy is good, bad or terrible.
Typical.
Friends will not have chickens to sell eggs no matter the price.I am very lucky. When I’m not getting the 5doz box from Costco, I have friends that have chickens and sell the eggs for 3 bucks a dozen. Gonna get worse when they have to kill all the chickens for bird flu.
5 bucks in my neck of the woods, our chickens are conservatives .......18 large in my area.
I think chickens are opportunist. A hen is only an egg's way of making another egg.5 bucks in my neck of the woods, are chickens are conservatives .......![]()

President Trump and Elon Musk want the U.S. penny gone. There are currently 114 billion pennies in circulation, but the economy will be OK without the coin.www.nbcphiladelphia.com
It would be nice if he could reverse this nonsense.........

That's just the first report of job losses. Much more is coming. Aren't we wonderful, great again?Times of Israel is reporting 35,000 jobs have been lost in Jordan due to cuts to USAID
Well we can’t continue spending 2 trillion more than we make. It’s going to be a little painful for awhile.That's just the first report of job losses. Much more is coming. Aren't we wonderful, great again?![]()

You could start with not extending the Trump 2017 individual tax cuts that would cost $4.2 trillion over the decade 2026-2035. Perhaps even claw back the permanent corporate tax cuts.Well we can’t continue spending 2 trillion more than we make. It’s going to be a little painful for awhile.
I'd say the fair tax, but than life isn't necessarily fair in terms of working harder and talent. The middle class will get footed with the bill on certain things based on the wealthy drive manufacturing of goods, jobs etc. The debt is a meaningless number as long as others are buying are goods (or buying our debt depending upon how that works).You could start with not extending the Trump 2017 individual tax cuts that would cost $4.2 trillion over the decade 2026-2035. Perhaps even claw back the permanent corporate tax cuts.
Of course, it's not the wealthy that have to bear the pain but lower and middle incomes households.
>>>Key parts of the 2017 law expire at the end of 2025. Republican plans call for extending them, and some plans also call for adding large new tax cuts, including tax cuts aimed at corporations, wealthy shareholders, and large estates. Extending the expiring tax cuts would:
Do relatively little for households with low or middle incomes. Households with incomes in the top 1 percent (who make more than roughly $743,000 a year) would get tax cuts averaging $61,000 a year, compared to only about $400 for households with incomes in the bottom 60 percent (who make roughly $96,000 or less). Those tax cuts would come on top of the large tax benefits that wealthy people will receive from the 2017 law’s permanent corporate tax cuts, which are tilted even more heavily toward wealthy people than the expiring individual tax cuts.
Add trillions in debt, much of it to benefit the wealthy. Extending the expiring tax cuts would cost $4.2 trillion over the decade 2026-2035, and roughly half of the benefits would go to people making over roughly $320,000 (that is, people with incomes in the top 5 percent).<<<
I can't make heads or tails of your post. Are you for or against extending the 2017 tax cuts?I'd say the fair tax, but than life isn't necessarily fair in terms of working harder and talent. The middle class will get footed with the bill on certain things based on the wealthy drive manufacturing of goods, jobs etc. The debt is a meaningless number as long as others are buying are goods (or buying our debt depending upon how that works).
It means the US will stop paying 3,69 cents to mint one penny, not that they'll be removed from circulation and that cost comes after the change from solid Copper to Copper-plated Zinc.and while we're at it, 'a penny for your thoughts'............
