Just like here in Canada, Trudeau was funnelling government funds to a "charity" that then paid his family large sums for "speaking engagements" (sometimes, of just 2-3 minutes).
Jordan Peterson agrees

Should A Covid Stimulus Bill Be Helping Other Countries?
by minimus ini think it should simply be there to help us citizens.
and besides giving money to other countries, stop giving money to the arts and entertainment..... give money to help taxpayers struggling with debt .

The reason Congress gets away with this is because the majority of voters have no idea how bills are introduced.
Democrats continue to survive in Congress because of “LOW INFORMATION VOTERS”
This is the reason why they are planning to lower the voter age requirement to 16 years old.
For example, some of my employees were mad at Trump because he won’s sign the bill for the extra $600 dollars. After I explained to them what the bill consists off, then they were pissed off. I asked them, “Who did you vote for? They answered; BIDEN. I replied; “This is just a taste of what you can expect the next four years.
They replied; If I had known this, I would have voted for Trump!
Democrats continue to survive in Congress because of “LOW INFORMATION VOTERS”
When people ask; Are you Republican or Democrat? That means they have no idea how the American System works. I personally am not a Republican. I think Republicans are border line cowards. I vote for the platform and how it will affect me personally and my Country. The majority of people that voted for Trump were not Republicans, many were Democrats who didn’t want open borders, Gun Confiscation, our Tax money going to other Countries and pet project of the Democrats.
The majority of voters didn’t even know what the Democratic platform was.The Republicans knew a couple of years in advance that the Democrats were planning on sabotaging the elections and did nothing to prepare counter attacks. The Democrats that voted for Trump will not vote Republican again.

I have some friends who have made some pretty good short films. So good in fact, that it caught me by surprise. I had no idea that they were so tech savvy. They just started doing this and to their surprise, they found out how cheap it was to make good movies.They are now developing marketing plans and they allowed me to invest in their idea.
They got the idea from this short film on YouTube that has over 5 million positive views
The developer seems to be from Austria. But this is what is said about the 36 minute film.
This Movie was Budgeted at only 15 thousand dollars, and made by 3 people Crew. it was shot with Black Magic Ursa Mini, Canon 5D MK3 and Gopro Cameras, VFX was created in After effects based on online tutorials, and on an imac desktop. no other compositing software used other than AE and Element 3D plug in. there has been heavy use of Physical Models.

It seems that the main budget cost for some of the big block busters are the contract salaries to the movie stars. As an example
"A new report from Forbes breaking down Marvel salaries reveals that Downey Jr. has earned a whopping $75 million from “Endgame” alone."
Imagine what the cost was to pay all the other movie stars.
The truth is that Movies today can be made with as little as $15,000 and marketed for as little as 2-3 dollars for a 45 minute story. Imagine if you had 5 million customers willing to pay 2-3 dollars for a 45 minute film with a budget of 15k. and split the profits between 5 or 6 persons which includes cast and crew. There is no need to buy cars, planes, or actors, because software today allows you to create all these things.
This is the great thing about America Today. If you have an idea and are willing to take the risk, and work hard then go for it. Don't have any money, Don't matter because if the idea is great, you will get investors. And Investors don't have to risk an arm and leg, because a just a little can bring BIG REWARDS.

If you had to buy bread from the government, it would cost $10 a loaf and be stale by the time it arrived.
In a Government run society-----You wait for the Bread to come to you
In a Capitalistic run society-------The Bread waits for you!

Will You Take A Covid Vac!

Great Teacher I wonder if some people are simply more immune from sickness than others. I know some people that are always at the doctors and I know a very healthy 91 year old JW woman who has never been to a doctor!
I believe that's a given. That just the way life works. Some people are born with great genetics. These people get all the benefits of life.
Tall and muscular man = a career in sports and making millions.
Tall and beautiful girl = a career in Victoria Secrets and a million-air by age 20.
Young man, short, heavy, and bald, = no prom date,
Young girl 5lbs over-weight in today's culture, = single with tons of cats,
Baby born to rich parents = Trust Fund, long life, and living the vida loca.
Baby born with cancer and to poor parents = short life span
Tom Cruise 5 foot 7 inches tall and net worth close to $600 million US Dollars
Tom Bruise 6 foot 4 inches tall, works at Dollar Store net worth, one bicycle and $300 dollars in the bank
Some never get sick in their entire life
Some get sick from the moment they leave the womb
Life is like the lottery, many lose, a few win.

Governor Como is going to gather all the people 60 and over and put them in nursing homes and force the vaccine on them in NY-hopefully the Governing Body too.
Then when he becomes Attorney General, he will do the same in all other states.
As far as I'm concerned, I already got Covid and all it gave me was a runny nose. My doctor said I got the antibodies. So no vaccine for me.💪

Jesus speaks in third person
by menrov ini stumbled on john 17:1,2 which reads in net version:.
17 when jesus had finished saying these things, he looked upward to heaven and said, “father, the time has come.
glorify your son, so that your son may glorify you— 2 just as you have given him authority over all humanity, so that he may give eternal life to everyone you have given him.. if jesus had a close relation with his father, would you not expect to read something like this:.

Hi Menrov
I remember there was a exjw site called jwstruggle with literally tons of exjws who were trying to hold on to the idea that the bible was God's word but the watchtower had left the truth.
At first they were trying figure out certain things in the bible and I remember the same question you had came up.
Eventually a lot of the members starting fighting over doctrine or what Jesus meant or why Jesus said this or that. Little by little many of the members started leaving one by one until finally the last few members just made it known that they didn't believe in the bible anymore and that there was no such thing as a loving and just God.
That seems to be the steps a JWs who wakes up goes through. For some it take very little time to realize, for others it takes many years. Most will leave the watchtower but still believe in the bible. Then they struggle to find answers in the bible by studying it deeply only to find out the bible is a book filled with ancient man-made stories and not inspired.
That's why those sites who try to stick to the bible either die eventually or have very few members. There is another exjw site that is also going through the same thing. It started off with many members and now there is less than ten that post regularly and mostly just references of what this scholar or that scholar says about this point or that with no real substance.
Many of the ones that hang around do everything to debunk the Watchtower but at the same time continue to attend the Watchtower and support it by attending for whatever reason, which shows that in heart they are still JWs but with a little twist.
If you really want to know what Jesus meant in many of his sayings, I suggest you start reading some of Bart Ehrman's books which you can get used on amazon for less than three dollars.
Misquoting Jesus is probably the simplest explanation of why Jesus said many things that don't make sense.

by cha ching inmy jw mom just died last week, about 6 1/2 months after my non jw dad died (dehydration, starvation, imo) i was the executor of that will.

I know someone that challenged a will and won. What was at stake was some 3 million dollars in money, home, and rental property. The lawyers battled it our for about 2 years. At this point the lawyer's bills had dug into the assets by about 40%. The parties realized that if they kept fighting there would be nothing left. So the jws that changed the will secretly gave in and decided to divide the assets equally.
The question to ask is, if you fight it, is who will pay the lawyer's bill??? Regardless if you win or lose.
