wolfie09 Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 I would be in favor of this.. The College Football Playoff management committee will consider expanding the current four-team field to a 12-team format when it meets in Chicago next week, marking the first step in what could be another historic change for the sport's postseason. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/31604970/college-football-playoff-consider-expanding-12-team-format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know anything about it until today, but seem she is a defund the police proponent. I'm concerned crime may be impacted if the defunding commences like in other cities. I’m a bit concerned. I didn’t even know Tuesday was primary day. Usually you see signs everywhere, mailers, news coverage… I don’t remember seeing anything till it was over. Was like a non existent event in my part of the city. Why does she keep saying “we won” and “we’re commin for you”? Who is we, because we is not me. Her one windfall is an estimate $300 million in cares act funding for the city which will be her one way of actually accomplishing her agenda. She wants to have a means of “controlling” rent prices in the city and capping what renters can charge in certain neighborhoods. She wants to end poverty with community gardens. Her belief is that once the poverty is gone the crime will be gone. She is going to classify the us as a Sanctuary City and she wants to create a new “public banking system”. Her police reform plan would create a citizen oversight board that could open their own investigations. She wants Community policing, “we’re going to deploy resources into the community and let the neighborhoods decide how to use them”, with more mental health workers. It will be interesting to see how the common council is willing to work with her. She has already said she is making allies for the upcoming local elections. Was looking to move back to the burbs in the near future but might be wanting to find a way to make that happen by the end of the year now.

I'm counting my blessings that we didn't move back to the city. All she will do is enabe. Yes some people will benefit from her socialist agenda and maybe make a better life for themselves but its been my experience that it will only make drug use and poverty worse. Just look at what's happening right now with worker shortages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing money into 'projects' that don't address the root issues of this mindset will only prolong the situation and ultimately fail. That's partly why seemly 'helpful' socialist policies fail to remedy poverty every time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vortmax Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Pretty sick of all the negative news about COVID as if they media needs to keep the story going for click bait. Every message I get from Yahoo News, for example, is some negative twist on the Delta variant. Here's one from Popular Science: "Australia's renewed lockdowns are a warning sign for the US" - yet less than 4% vaccinated in Aus vs 60%+ in the US. Not even a comparison IMHO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
