Well I want to talk about it because the cost of housing, transporting, feeding and healthcare for these people as it comes out of my pocket...Secondly, the economy was closed at the local level, but you knew that already didn't you. With regards to the market and the economy, we are largely running Trumps economy still, wait until dipshits major tax increases kick in then we can talk about Biden's economy. 

Lastly, if we stopped paying people not to work we wouldn't have to have this stupid conversation.

  • The Taliban has been seizing territory across Afghanistan as US-led forces withdraw.
  • The US has sent B-52 bombers and Spectre gunships to stop the Taliban advance on three key cities.
  • The move shows how Afghan forces are still reliant on the US for military equipment and support.

The US has sent B-52 bombers and Spectre gunships to Afghanistan in a bid to stop Taliban insurgents who are marching towards three key cities.

The B-52s are flying into Afghanistan from an airbase in Qatar, hitting targets around Kandahar, Herat, and Lashkar Gah in Helmand province, sources told The Times

The move comes amid an increasingly dire situation in Afghanistan, as the Taliban continues to seize territory across the country as US-led forces withdraw. 

The Pentagon estimates that the group now controls half of Afghanistan's 419 district centers.

On Friday, the Taliban seized Zaranj in Nimroz, making it the first provincial capital to be captured by the insurgents since they began their military campaign in May.

The Taliban also assassinated the government's chief media officer, Dawa Khan Menapal, on the same day in Kabul.

The deployment of American bombers and gunships also highlights how ailing Afghan forces remain reliant on US support.

The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range, subsonic, jet-powered strategic bomber, which can carry up to 32 tonnes of bombs.

The bombers first flew during the Cold War and played a key role in toppling the Taliban from power in late 2001, according to Arab News.

B-52 shave not been used in Afghanistan for nearly a year, according to The Times.

The US is also using armed Reaper drones and AC-130 Spectre gunships, and at least five missions are being flown each day, The Times said.

The Afghan air force is still reliant on US-supplied aircraft, which are now running out of spares and trained technicians after the departure of US contractors, The Times reported. 

The paper said that at least seven Afghan pilots had been killed after being targeted by the Taliban, while others are reportedly exhausted after relentless missions.

Although Joe Biden has set a deadline for withdrawal of August 31, American defense sources told The Times that there was every intention to continue with the airstrikes after that date.

"It is getting worse day by day here," security analyst and retired colonel Mohammad Hassan told Arab News.

"The cancelation of flights to Herat and the fact that America has back started using B-52 are not good signs. It will cause more panic among people at large and shows the precariousness of the situation."

The Afghan government estimates that over 40,000 families have been displaced by the fighting since early May.

Why not? 

1 We dont have the money.

2 save spending money we dont have till we really need to spend it. Just as many were slamming Trump for spending when not needed , same applys.

3 there is already a housing shirtage and a shortage of residential const workers. Many currently in resi will bail for higher paying PW work. leaving a bigger shortage and an even faster spike in home prices driving even more out of the market.

4 did I mention we dont have the money?

Too bad we all can’t untie and object to this.  Also, Inlike good roads too but, libtwats that run my area take the additional taxes that were sold as “road improvements” and grants received to by fed and state as “road improvements” and pilfer it on their own little social agendas…..that fail.  It’s kinda neat to watch.  Like those fail videos on YouTube.

Yeah, just posted in one of his threads over there.  I guess this place got to him?  
 

Not gonna ask about Frankie and that drama.  I can prolly guess pretty accurately.  Like why they wouldn’t let Chinny Tools in over there either.  Sometimes, it’s easier just not to allow the trash to miss the basket…that way, there’s no dirty clean up later.  :lol:

No reason to study.  A new tax is sold and approved based on things people want and can agree on then, it’s pilfered by our lying local and state governments to do what they really wanted to do with it.

We just sit here and do nothing.  Over and over and over and over again.

Do nothing and dismiss it as not important enough or not a big deal.  Just like in my Free Lunch thread.
