Agree. One would assume you watched what you posted. Lol! Give me the big picture RFG3.
And that fine Tombstone Pepperoni has been downgraded to a Totino's cheese. This is a travesty!!! Although I suppose the poor would do better without pepperoni from a health standpoint.

The poor get no pepperoni, crumbs, that's it . . . and for the last 30+ years those crumbs have been slowly dwindling.
You need to buy larger paper towels.....your tears are drowning out your ill informed

Exactly. Rather than just show us you rattle off your lies.
Your attitude and complicit posting nature is EXACTLY why the Corrupt Criminals in
the Government still exist. You and all the other Liberal posters should hang your head
in shame for what you've supported and enabled to continue within the Federal Govt.
You are trying to destroy a good man and his family because he doesn't go along with
the criminal enterprise you've supported by shilling daily for the Clinton's, Obama's and
all the supporting cast members who have been FLEECING the United States of mine
and every other concerned American citizens hard earned Tax Dollars.
You and the rest of the Liberal supporters are Disgusting Cowards and don't
deserve the classification of Human Being, sewer Rat better serves your
description. Low Down Sewer Rats .....

Amazon announced its shortlist of the North American cities that are still in the running for its second headquarters on Thursday. Though 238 states, cities, and regions submitted bids, only 20 metros made the final cut.
The company has promised a $5 billion investment and says HQ2 will bring 50,000 jobs, making it one of the largest corporate-civic giveaways in modern American history.

No Stadium Subsidies: Not Even for the Super Bowl
NFL teams can afford to pay for their own stuff.
https://fee.org/articles/no-stadium-subsidies-not-even-for-the-super-bowl/
After the roof of the previous stadium collapsed under the weight of snow, it became clear that some kind of new facility would be needed for the team. Vikings owner Zygi Wilf made it clear that he wanted public subsidies to defray the cost, unveiling a proposal that would have required about $400 million in subsidies. After the state’s House Government Operations and Elections Committee voted it down, he warned that failure to pass a deal could lead to “serious consequences.” He even went so far as to visit Los Angeles, at the time the top relocation possibility for NFL franchises, and policymakers at all levels eventually relented.
The subsidies should be enough to raise eyebrows and elicit concern on their own, but the Vikings stadium went a step further. According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, government appointees of the Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority who oversee the stadium on behalf of taxpayers, and negotiated the deal, received free tickets to two lower-level luxury suits for all events.
The data on who gets the 36 seats in the suites each game was not made available to the public. The justification given was that the suites are for marketing purposes, and confidentiality is important for booking event spaces, although the appointees admit “friends and family are often in attendance.” The backlash to these revelations was enough to cause the chairwoman and executive director of the board to resign last year and the legislature to pass another bill to tighten oversight of finances and suite use.
