Back in the days airlines handed out 3/4 cigarettes to passengers.

Yep, and back in the day, the airlines actually cranked up the cabin air filtering.
I remember when the airlines pleaded with the FAA to lower restrictions on them so they could save money.
Now you take your health into question when you fly.
The last time the wife flew, a year ago, I almost died from whatever virus the illegals were carrying, she caught, and brought home to me.

People don't realize just how much better life was with a smaller govt.

Out of the top 50 cities in the U.S., only eight have a republican mayor. Not only are the rest liberal, they are radical. This isn't proof of democrat support, it shows what happens when people are too cramped, too scared, fed too much cr-p, and forced to rely on the government.

Really shines a light on "Appointed", doesn't it?
Everything Mayor on down is appointed. Is it really any wonder why we're in the mess we're in?
Gives nepotism a bad name.

As with many large cities, Austin will be bankrupt before it elects anything that is not radical liberal. There is no problem that exists that that city does not believe it can spend its way out of. They will spend billions on what is never needed, and tell you straight to your face they have no money for fire and police, unless they raise taxes. Again.

And the sheep keep voting them in along with every damn bond issue on the ballot. Got to love it when the sheepeople demand property tax reform and the one's running promise it. Hell there is not tax reform, you have to pay your damn debts!!!

Do people really vote "For" them? I've been yelling this for years, that both parties are in sync where voter fraud is concerned.
Remember this post?

The GOP'E is the real Marxists! Bare with me...

I was trying to explain to someone who still thinks Ca is packed full of leftists when it is not.
It just isn't so as proved by the last election, only to further prove how these leftists stole it, by counting votes till they got the results they wanted.
As I stated in the post, this is the result of the GOP'E.

�As a Ca Native of 70 years, knowing this State is Red and always has been solid Conservative as the election proved, and their media pushes the lie,  there is no way in Hell the electorate will ever let Kamala near another office in Ca.

�It's not your fault for not knowing, but both parties perfected election theft in Ca.  when the GOP manipulated control back in the 50s thru 70s.
�Yes, it was intentional; the GOP actually manipulates the people into believing the DNC is an adversary, so they can play good guy victim, as they always gave away our treasure.
�How do you think they pulled off stealing the 2020 election?
�Yep, it was all the GOP'e Establishment.
Think I'm nuts? You all got ripped off too in 2020, even had Pence certify a fraudulent election, just like they did to Ca all these years, the party's just float out the most hideous of Hollywood freaks on the planet as somehow representative of Ca.
Remember how they just tried to groom your kids? Same thing you saw for decades in Ca, same exact playbook used on the rest of the nation.

Yes, this is/was all a part of the GOP'E plan. The upside is, they've been exposed as the NWO, and all these so-called "RINO" Fabian Socialists are going to be held accountable under Trump.

I think the fraud is in the voting to see who will be in the runoff. And there is always a runoff.. I also think there is too much apathy for the average voter to get off their butt and go out and vote. Seats are staggered, both single seats and general seats, so every other year, a few are running. Bond issues are often a "special" election. There are sections of Austin that the liberals know they can count on to turn out and vote.
