Thanks for the go ahead....

When I said my team I meant most of America you pompous ass....
I can certainly afford to post on "an internet forum" whenever I please...but thanks for keeping track of me you creepy little bitch.

The folks left in Afghanistan when the President Biden ignored his Generals and hauled ass are not better off than they were four years ago...
My team? Well most of the team is suffering from inflation. the open border, the fentanyl poisoning of thousands, woke DA's refusing to prosecute criminals and a ineffectual and seemingly rudderless President.
Go Giants!

You are starting to remind me of dizzy izzy claiming he couldn’t make a dime during the entire 8 years of Obama’s presidency. He moaned and whined even as things got better over time.

Where did I claim I couldn't make a dime? You like Joe Biden just make shit up.
You obtuse piece of waste. Read the conversation Daddy and I had, then shut the fuck up.
I'm at a point in my life where I make more money than I need. I can afford the extra $600.00 a month that inflation is adding to our lives.
Fortunately I don't have need for baby formula, and unlike yourself, I have no need for tampons...

Reread what I posted, I was referring to dizzy’s claim not yours. I’m glad you are doing well so am I, never had it so well.
 
Just FYI for all the armchair economists, the US is not a capitalist economy. It's considered a mixed economy, part capitalism and part socialism. The oil industry has elements of capitalism but is heavy regulated, arguably one of the most heavily regulated industries in the US.

Or in the socialism vein, one could re-word to (where a tax "break" is a euphemism for government subsidies)

Exactly, that's another socialist aspect of it and wisely so since our country is dependent on oil (there is certainly a case to be made for how much is reasonable). I wonder on a scale which would be heavier, the cost of regulation and bureaucratic red tape, or the benefit of subsidies. I don't know that answer...I don't know if anyone does. Keep in mind that a lot of the oil subsidies are not direct to oil producers but often to consumers like farmers or the government.

Do you think it would be a good idea to get rid of, or drastically reduce oil subsidies at this point in time?

If the industry is critical to national security, e.g. defense, energy, or food security, then I want the government to "participate" - that's their job. If that involves government subsidies, i.e. our money, then it should have conditions attached. TBH, I expect that the defense industry is "subsidized" to a far larger extent than the oil industry.

That whole post of mine illustrates Izzy’s antics. The only reference to you was that your whining about the economy was starting to remind me of his incessant moans not the same exact verbatim words. Just the tone. It’s like old times me explaining everything, every nuance to you . . . and you still don’t get it.

You having to explain everything is revealing.
You wouldn't know nuance if it kicked you in the puss...
