Woke university administrators FIRED after hidden videos revealed secret plot to destroy Trump's most cherished wish
Several college administrators in the UNC school system have been fired after they were secretly recorded saying they were still trying to implement DEI policies.
A research just completed at Harvard Women's Studies Department proved conclusively that fat black women are the stupidest humans known to mankind.

About that big beautiful bill...
Since it adds to the fed debt, it's one ugly piece of crap...even if it lowers my fed taxes.

But this is the Poland USA section of the forum. So, I felt a direct real comparison was in order. I would argue that all the medical and technological advances and innovations in the US are available to every American. That is if every American puts themselves in a position to take advantage of those advances and innovations. If someone doesnt want to work, study or improve their lives, the government, medical professionals, and technology people are not required to search them out. Self reliance is one of the most valuable principals of being an American. Unfortunately millions of Americans chose to not use their ability to be self reliant.
The world is a hard place. The idea that creating soft human beings to elevate peoples conditions is contradictory to evolution of man, and machines. The guy with the spear is more likely to survive a bear attack than the guy cowering in a corner. Anyone saying or thinking that life is not like this any more is likely blind.

Once again, I remind you that in order to "get ahead", perhaps not amongst assimilated US-born Jews, but
most assuredly amongst Italian Catholics, Irish, Russians of every stripe or religious background, obviously
US-born Blacks, Hispanics, Asian-American and the list goes on....connections aka bribery, pay offs done tacitly, are what catapult most to positions
of wealth, power, and authority, so you can take your naive Horatio Alger scenarios and go stick 'em where the sun don't shine!! Don't let's please
tell me that looking in the ol' proverbial want ads is how Americans "get ahead"LOL
@Rich, I/we here on PF have only your word as to that to which you credit your amazing success:-)

MAGA fools think Trump works for them. How is so?
1. The new "budget" (which is the final nail to the death by debt) arranges a cheap sale of the federal land to technocrats for "AI centers." Why don't they allow farmers or regular people to buy the same land for cheap?
2. Trump works for the technocrats to sell TikTok to one of his billionaire buddies. An acting US president actively seeks a buyer for a private company, really? What's his cut - 20% for the fat guy?
3. Trump stops all negotiations with Canada over them wanting to tax his technocrat friends 5% for digital services. He's never bothered to do the same for any other industry which have been negatively affected by counter tariffs.
His first term was working for the Big Pharma (he called himself the "father" of the Covid vaccines). This term, he's in the pockets of the Big Tech and the Military Complex.
The conman has never truly helped the regular American people. Name any new prominent MAGA supporter that isn't a leftist, warmonger, technocrat, or a RINO - there are many genuine ones who stopped supporting him. Unless you are the top 5% rich, you must hate yourself and your family for supporting his policies and desire to kill the dollar.
Ask yourself - why do you still support Trump? Would you support your spouse who pawns your house, your car, and household items to buy more booze? That's exactly what Trump is doing to America as he couldn't care less about the consequences of his debt slavery creation.
Guys, I'm not here to offend anyone as I've been in the MAGA club myself. However, we ride on the same boat. Musk is right - the only hope is a 3rd national party that will represent us, not the pigs.

Spare us the jealous meltdown. You rant about bribery and backdoor deals because deep down, you know you'd never make it on merit. You didn't fail because the system's rigged,you failed because you never had the grit to compete. So keep crying about Horatio Alger while the rest of us actually move forward without needing a handout or a conspiracy theory."

You are delusional. To get ahead takes hard work, and a lot of it. Eight hours a day working for someone else is not how you achieve any level of real success. All the people whining are people who want a "job". All the people winning, are people who are working one or more jobs while saving and creating their own opportunity. There are those who should be worker bee's and those that should lead. Worker bee's fill a need, but are constantly replaced.
@Joker
All the whiners here on PF have one thing in common. They never took a chance on themselves. They never challenged the system, or tested the theories that were spoon fed to them while growing up and getting their grade school education. My Polish friends do not understand the level of compete Americans have, they have no clue. Ask them to work a 16 hour day for five years and their heads will explode. Tell them to take their 3 weeks vacation and use it to work on their own financial freedom, and they look at you like you have lost your mind. Then they complain about not having enough money to take a trip to the US and will go to Croatia instead.
All the people who complain about the "system" are the ones who usually want to replace that system, one proven to work over centuries, with another system that has been proven to fail time and again. Socialism is just another phrase for "death by a thousand paper cuts".

During these 5 years you will biologically age at least 10 years. It doesn't always pay off.

Is sacrificing 5 years worth being able to give your family financial freedom? All of my children have their own home, no mortgage because I was able to do that for them. Imagine having that as a young adult starting out in life. Chances make champions. I dont understand, and have no sympathy for people who complain and do nothing about the things they are complaining about. The world is not a fair place, life is hard. The sooner people recognize this, the more likely they are to be able to compete with everyone else who wants more out of life. The idea of a free ride is a socialist idea. Socialism and communism always fail because there is no such thing as everyone being equal. Some are born smarter or more physically gifted, thats just genetics. Unless handicapped in some way, the one thing everyone has is opportunity to make choices, if you chose to do nothing, its still a choice.

@Joker & PolAmKrakow,
Merely to recount a once known story of former NY State Gov.
Al Smith, erstwhile fresh-faced Irish kid from the Lower East Side,
once given a cabinet tour of NYU Law Library while still Governor,
who abruptly remarked in his thick Lower East Side "brogue",
HEY, LOOKY THERE AT THAT YOUNG MAN WITH HIS LAW BOOKS,
STUDYIN' HOW TO COLLECT A BRIBE AND CALL IT A FEE!
Wake up and smell the coffee, guys! If getting ahead were only a matter of application
and hard work (of which most people out there possess but plenty!!), there'd be practically
no homelessness and nearly as little unemployment.
Everybody knows, especially you two, that EVERYONE needs just a little push in order to
ease the application process - pass a little envelope at collection time to Father McKinnon
who then passes it along to his Monsignor and we're in business.
Y'all know it, y'all simply won't admit it....as with most Americans.
The history of success in American labor can often be reduced to a little, one-syllable word, PULL!!
As for myself, rather than a jealous meltdown, I'm the ultimate recipient of everything I've just been
posting. Mom and Dad joined a shul right around when I was born, paid into the synagogue and
it facilitated any number of later opportunities, among them, securing a job so as I could marry:-)

Ah yes, the Supreme Court isn't doing what you want, so it must be 'under Trump's control. Classic tantrum logic. It's called separation of powers, not do what crybabies demand.

Perhaps if more American citizens were less embarrassed by "tantrum logic", the more

Youre delusional. I came from nothing. No help, no push. None is ever needed. Hard work, and a little luck. Homelessness in the US is predominantly due to drug use and/or mental illness. Your outlook on life is simply not supported by facts. Your lone experience is not the majority of experiences. Bezos, Musk, Gates, and so many others made things happen with an idea and hard work. Thats how the real world is.
And btw, no one cares what the democratic far left is saying. We dont have to care, thats the beauty of freedom of speech. The USSC is made up of multiple appointments from more than one President. Boo hoo, you dont like their rulings? Too bad. Life is hard. Grow some balls and move forward. Stop wasting time on issues, and start spending time on living.
