Why would anyone do that? Numbers are real. You're talking about people who have lost touch with reality and are unbound by our laws. Want an example?
I suspected they didn't send my tax refund last year but wasn't sure due to the multitude of covid checks they were tossing around. One check arrived in an envelope with no explanation. What was that for? My missing refund? No idea. AND THEN... Got a statement from them a few weeks ago saying I earned interest from them (no reason detailed). Since I never saw a check from them for that amount I can only assume it has been tacked onto whatever it was that earned that interest. The refund check perhaps? Hell if I know. |

As soon as you use "government" and "believe" in the same sentence, the answer is no.

Let's just say I'm skeptical of all numbers I see from anyone anymore, especially those that have an incentive to mislead people.

~inflation is transitory
~inflation is 8% ~stopping drilling and pipelines lowers energy costs ~we didn't open the southern border to hordes of mostly fighting age illegals ~we didn't fund the Wuhan lab ~the Wu flu didn't come from China ~the vaccines prevent infection and spread ~the vaccines do not cause injury ~HCQ and Ivermectin DO cause injury ~antifa is just an idea ~White supremacy is the most dangerous problem in America today ~blm is mostly peaceful and there were no riots caused by them I mean, Hell yes I trust the people who told me all that. How could anybody NOT trust them? |

In 2009, Pfizer was fined $2.3 billion dollars for bribing doctors and falsifying test results. So, you can trust them. |

our federal gov't is run by liars, staffed by liars, and they spend a lot of time lying to us.
but sure, go ahead and trust them implicitly. i believe that tax day is 4/15 each year, and that they want their cut. after that, the less i'm involved with them, the happier i am. |
