Cities everywhere are in deep trouble with their budgets.

Not as deep, and some cities were doing well.  Atlanta was riding pretty high before this happened.

I haven't heard much about city finances since other than that they had dipped into the rainy day fund heavily.

States are in trouble as well and 49 have to "balance their budget" somehow.

I rather dislike it when a poster calls another "friend" with a implied sarcastic note to it, but that's just me.

Read this, and then tell me what you learned about who caused 2008.


https://www.nytimes.com/1999/09/30/business/fannie-mae-eases-credit-to-aid-mortgage-lending.html


Guess who was the HUD secretary at the time.
Yeah, he had no clue what he was talking about. As usual. Lol. 

There really isn’t a single person to blame for the financial collapse of 2008-2009. Lots of blame to go around. A great documentary to watch about this is called Inside Job, it’s narrated by Matt Damon. 

Larry Summers shares a big chunk of the blame as one of the architects of the conditions which caused the collapse. Same Larry Summers that is now advising Joe freaking Biden. 

It wasn’t just Clinton and the Democrats. Republicans are complicit as well. Most notably Phil Gramm, Jim Leach, and Thomas Blilely.

W had basically zero to do with it. OAM is like Jon Snow. He knows nothing.

Maybe the greatest show in history of television. Certainly up there. Trey & Matt are freaking geniuses.

So the director of national intelligence- the very top intelligence official in the entire country- comes out today and debunks all the unsourced msm media reports saying the Hunter Biden laptop is a Russian scheme. Flat out said that is not true. 

Also- presidential debate commission ditches foreign policy as a topic in the debate- when it originally was suppose to be the main topic of the final debate. WEIRD. Now why would they do that? Hmmm.

Years ago, political speech was allowed in the former site we used.  It got ugly, rather quickly.  People who had been cordial on line with fans of other schools, and their school, suddenly became enemies on all points.  They would snipe at each other about their own team.  Anything said was countered, whereas before they might have offered an alternative explanation for whatever, now suddenly there would be this vituperative argument.

So, it was banned.  And the board cleaned up, people went back to discussing sports rather amicably with the usual sports barbs thrown out mostly in good humor.

If you want a cess pool where you can say nearly everything, there is a site for that in spades.  If you want to focus on sports and cooking and beer and amicable discussion, this place is reserved for that.
well before this thread closes I just wanted to leave you with these final thoughts:

Life is easier when everything BAD is because of the OTHER political party (or team), and whatever is good is because of YOUR guys.

Life is harder when one realizes both sides do bad things, and occasionally perhaps stumble across something half decent, maybe.

If California actually does ban sale of new cars that are not electric in 2035, might the stock of car repair and part and used car sales be decent investments?

I could see a lot of demand for 3 year old off lease IC cars.
