“Hate Has No Home Here”
I saw those signs all over the place in Boston a couple years ago.
There were none around here (rural Virginia).

They are still assuming Sinema was a yes vote.

Karla wants to make a sign that says “Welcome, Hate! Have a seat and make yourself at home!”

Louisiana would have a much higher literacy rate, but a lot of our best and brightest move out of state.

Why did they choose to leave Louisiana?
Why did they choose to relocate to Austin (instead of any other town/state)? -

The 25% subsidy for US built electric cars and components contained in the bill would have caused a trade war with Canada and Mexico. It was contrary to the USMCAN trade Treaty as well as the Auto Pact between Canada and the USA. It would as well likely run afoul of the WTO if a grievance were brought forward.
Manchin did the US a big favour by quashing the bill. It was a shit bill from square one.

It was nothing but buying votes promising payoffs. I surely would like to see these issues addressed separately rather than huge, unreadable bills.
