That's what it really came down to. It's really surprising that they didn't double down on Student Loan excuses or dangle reparations for slavery.Originally posted by Mike View PostComment

For reference, all discretionary spending last year was about $1.7 T. Almost half of that went to the military.
You cannot cut $2T from the budget by eliminating “waste”. You will have to do something deeply unpopular like deep cuts to SS, Medicare, or the Pentagon.
The Departments of Education and Commerce have a combined budget of $25B so even if you wipe out entire departments you won’t come close to the goal.

They have a lot of dumbass laws but it doesn't seem that different from most states these days. I think maybe they just suck at it. Change your stupid laws, Arizona! You're annoying the rest of the country.Originally posted by Dr. Strangelove View PostComment

Spiegelberg said adjustments were made to the original design and another one was sent for approval. And, once again, Colorado said it was not interested, he said.
“At that point, we pressed a little bit more and we were told they won’t be licensing a product that had an American flag on it,” he said.
He added they’re aware other shirts are on the marketplace and Red Raider Outfitter was given the opportunity to remove the flag.
He said that was something they refused to do.
“At this point with our fanbase, we decided we would not be selling any type of Colorado merchandise in the store with the logo,” Spiegelberg said. “We refuse to do that because Colorado would receive financial benefit from those shirts. And we don’t think that anybody has the right to limit the use of the American flag in this great nation.”Each year, the store donated the proceeds made from each “Celebrate America” shirt to local charities benefiting veterans and the military.
“We‘ve already decided that we’re making our normal donation to Danny Koch, which is a war memorial here in Lubbock,” he said. “It‘ll be used - adding a West Texas Purple Heart to his memorial. We‘re pleased to say that we’re continuing to make that donation regardless of Colorado’s intent to limit our ability to celebrate. We will continue to keep celebrating here.”
He said all galvanized and Americana merchandise purchases will support those initiatives including to honor Specialist 5 Dwight Birdwell at the West Texas Medal of Honor Memorial.
