Terapined…. about the pension bill…. That IS an issue I brought up. I guess I want my pension manager to only consider financial stuff and not ‘causes’ and the like when choosing what to buy. BAD company makes 10% by selling oil. GOOD company makes 2% by harnessing cow farts. I want my pension manager to buy the oil company.
You use the word HATE way too much! I do not hate transgender people. Reminding you I took care of them for years. My feelings for them ranged from ‘liked’ to ‘felt sorry for’. Kind of like all people, actually.. I don’t hate Sam Brinton. I hate that such an obviously troubled individual was appointed by our President to an important nuclear type position.

You didn’t (as usual) actually address the issue I brought up. Do you want your pension manager to do the best for your money or use racial/global warming/gender affirmation type decisions influence him?

ams posted right after I typed above..

I will affirm that the ‘woke agenda’ has had no negative influence on my sex life.

The bill is garbage
The world's largest asset manager said

"Climate change has become a defining factor in companies' long-term prospects,
I believe we are on the edge of a fundamental reshaping of finance."

This is what the bill is about. Handcuffing managers to destroy their funds due to shortsighted politicians consumed with BS woke
The bill is against freedom
How do you prosecute a fund manager that invests due to future global warming trends.
Take the insurance market in FL
Sucks due to global warming but you want fund managers to ignore that.

Do you belive all transgenders are "troubled"????????
It's hate
He committed a crime. Gender is immaterial

Would this guy be the first to scream if a Muslim pushed their beliefs this blatantly into American legislation? You really want to create a mess, set up everyone for all religions to be pushed into our government. It doesn't say freedom for Christians only.

Quote:
Anew bill led by a Texas representative, Bryan Slaton, would give a 100 percent credit for property taxes to married couples with at least ten children. The filled bill would only provide graduated tax relief for heterosexual couples who were never divorced.

The newly introduced Texas House bill does not recognize LGBTQ families, single parents, or blended families.

The former pastor and Republican representative Slaton said, “With this bill, Texas will start saying to couples: ‘Get married, stay married, and be fruitful and multiply.'”

The controversial bill, known as H.B. 2889, would provide couples a 40 percent property tax reduction if they have four children, with the tax break increasing for every additional child.

For every additional child, families who qualify would get an extra 10 percent of property tax reduction.

Why Republicans are spreading the lie that whales are being killed by wind farms
Protests about wind farms killing whales seem to be more about stopping renewable energy than protecting whales

This is weird. Republicans want to protect whales now. Fascinating. Will the Republicans join with Greenpeace. Lol
I'll take energy where ever I can get it

Speaking of Greenpeace. I have French Canadian neighbors from Prince Edward Island.
They blame Greenpeace protecting seals as the reason their cod industry has not come back.

The only whale the Republicans are interested in protecting is Donny.

Shamu. One of the victims of cancel culture.

Did you see Blackfish?
One of the most horrifying documentaries I have ever seen

Cancel culture on the left
Lets cancel horrible people because they are horrible
Cancel culture on the right
Lets cancel gays because we hate gays

Big difference :-)
One is logical
the other illogical
The hate for gays is so intense on the right, the head of CPAC is staying in the closet
