    Sorry every for being a bit busy and depressed since the election. I wanted to give an update on my election results to everyone in here that helped out and encouraged me. Well I put up a good fight but I did not win the election but I did get 47% of the vote in a leans Democrat district.  I was depressed for a few weeks but now I am ok and just ready to strive forward an keep pushing my opponent to where he needs to be

    I was just saying to my spouse recently that I wondered how you fared.  Don't despair, buddy... losing the battle does NOT mean that the war is un-winnable.  Just have to keep plugging ahead.  We need more honest Americans such as yourself to put themselves into positions where they can balance the leaning scales once again.

    Having tried and lost is MUCH better than never trying at all.

    It is clear based on the latest documents you have finally turned over that the Department still has not told the truth about its continuing efforts to censor political speech.

    On May 4, 2022, in response to my questioning, you testified, “The board has not yet met.” That was untrue. Documents that your own Department recently produced to my office show that the Disinformation Governance Board’s Steering Group met as early as February 4, 2022, and was meeting on a weekly basis. Shortly after Ms. Jankowicz onboarded, she requested “a copy of the last 2-3 steering group meeting agendas.” Despite your assertions to the contrary, the board appeared to have operational authorities: Ms. Jankowicz indicated it was the responsibility of Disinformation Board members to “ensure that their respective components implement, execute, and follow Board decisions.”

    Our whistleblower documents previously revealed that the Board was engaging with Twitter on possible censorship activities. These new records show even more Big Tech companies were involved. The Disinformation Board planned to meet with Nathaniel Gleicher of Meta (formerly Facebook), who was head of security policy at that company during the controversy over the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, and had contacts with the Omidyar Network, a liberal dark money group which has poured millions into combatting “misinformation”.

    https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/ciprofloxacin-and-dexamethasone-otic-route/proper-use/drg-20061674#:~:text=For middle ear infection%3A,be determined by your doctor.

     

    Once again to be such a smart guy you have zero grasp of science, cause and effect or a basic understanding of medicine. 

     

    • For otic dosage form (ear drops):
      • For middle ear infection:
        • Adults and children 6 months of age and older—4 drops into the affected ear(s) two times a day for 7 days.
        • Children younger than 6 months of age—Use and dose must be determined by your doctor.
      • For outer ear infection:
        • Adults, older adults, and children 6 months of age and older—4 drops into the affected ear(s) two times a day for 7 days.
        • Children younger than 6 months of age—Use and dose must be determined by your doctor.

     

    Cipro comes in tablets eye drops ointments ear drops injection to name a few.

     

    I really think you are smarter than this I just think you enjoy showing off for you fan boy(s)n here

     

    So If I said Penicillin which form am I talking about.

     

     

    Perhaps if you had SAID ear drops in the first place, I wouldn't have pointed out how bad cipro is.  Words means things.

     

    I also know more about drugs, as well as drug interactions, than most people I know.  I have been complimented more than once by doctors (about my knowledge) when discussing potential prescription & non-prescription drugs.

    I’m curious why FedEX, DHL, and UPS aren’t leading the charge here.  
     

    Logically, before we would entertain passenger aircraft without pilots, we would first implement  it on freight carriers.  
     

    And getting back to the original topic, do freight carriers use one pilot?

     

    The article mentions ways to ease into single pilot cockpits.  It didn’t mention one other way: on flights were a pilot is being ferried, there could be a single pilot in the cockpit.  

    I'd say the military will be first, then cargo (some already only use 1 pilot on smaller craft), then airlines.  How soon?  Hard to gauge.  I'd say probably in our lifetimes.

    This seems to be a big one.

    THE biggest.  But real-time monitoring of aircraft systems grows constantly.  Heck, even 15 years ago computers on the ground were able to detect a problem before a part failed, and said part and maintenance personnel were on the ground waiting to change the (not quite yet) defective part when the plane landed.

    Of course, there are those failures that happen in the air, but between a computer, a pilot in a room, and a pilot onboard, just about everything that can happen can be dealt with, save for the plane coming apart mid-air.

    USD is backed by a Government that has assets and most importantly the ability to raise funds through taxes etc.

     

    And looking at the USD probably the strongest factor is that it is the best of a bad bunch and is seen by many others as a safe harbour. Or much safer anyway.

    It's all backed by a "promise".  From people who prove constantly they are corrupt and are there mostly for themselves, not We The People.

    And the more money that is printed (see: 1980-2020 but especially 2021 & 2022), the less value our $$ has.

    Drones are not really self flying though are they?  I may be wrong, but I thought drones were controlled from a ground station operator.

    They can be either (hand flown or be on autopilot).  But it's really not much different than a plane with two pilots (or even one pilot).  Typically, the pilot(s) take off and land, but then the autopilot does 98% of the work, to include auto landing if the need arises (infrequent today, but an easy switch to flip on at any point).  The biggest task of the pilot(s) is to remain in communication with different air traffic controllers (kinda hard to have highway signs and traffic lights at 39,000 feet), as well as to make any flight plan changes enroute, and of course to deal with any emergency/equipment failures that arise.

    A lot of that is not true or twisted a bit.

    I did not take the time to vet the text, my bad.  But let's look at some of it.

    As to Myth 1 from your link, it WAS voluntary, at least at first.

    Quote

    To become eligible, workers completed an application at their local post office and received a national identity card with a unique, nine-digit identification number. Within eight days of rolling out the program, over one million workers had Social Security numbers.

     

    Myth 2 appears to in fact be completely wrong.  (The original wording though!)
     

    Quote

    SEC. 811. When used in this title- (a) The term wages means all remuneration for employment, including the cash value of all remuneration paid in any medium other than cash; except that such term shall not include that part of the remuneration which, after remuneration equal to $3,000 has been paid to an individual by an employer with respect to employment during any calendar year, is paid to such individual by such employer with respect to employment during such calendar year.

     

    Myth 3 - yeah, bunk.

    Myth 4 - Kinda sorta.  While the SS fund is a stand-alone fund, the government DOES "borrow" money from it, with the promise of paying it back with interest.  However, the SS fund for years has suffered from a declining balance, hence Dashinka's fear that he will never see his just returns (somewhere around 3034 or so, the SS fund is expected to be near zero).

     

    Myth 5 - Pretty much NOT a myth.  SS wasn't taxed until 1983.  At that time, the fund was in danger of running out of money, so a law was passed to start taxing payouts as well as adding member of Congress to the SS plan in an effort to put more working people in the position of paying into FICA.

    Will SSB remain for those of us in the earlier years of our lives?  Not at the current rate it's being paid out at.  Something must be changed to keep the plan in place.  Depopulation of the elderly certainly helps the fund as much as it helps the earth.

  9. I keep hearing dems claim that 'pubs want to take SS away from us.  But is that reality?

    Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn’t know this. It’s easy to check out, if you don’t believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what’s what and it doesn’t matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts.
