If Trump still is in office, he would have been a badass like he used to be, get whoever is responsible to pay this, or an insurance company, or tell the country where the boat is from to pay it, or else add some tariff. I have not remembered Biden really negotiated anything well for the sake of the country. We are always taken advantages of. Don't get me wrong, this is actually OK to me, I am glad it is some money that is used on American soil, even if it reflects a bad leadership. We need a leader and a congress that are able to cut the government spending, not increase the spendings. When you budget your personal or family finance, you aren't just throwing everything you can, or come up with whatever spending ideas you could come up with, you definitely will have a lot of debt if you go that route. You want to spend in a smart way. This is our government, they come up with as many ridiculous bills as they want to. But, our government has some of the most stupid people running our money. They don't care about the money, and they really come up with whatever bill they could to squeeze us dry. We DO NOT need to increase any tax, we need to cut government spendings https://www.reuters.com/world/us/biden-says-federal-government-will-fund-baltimore-bridge-rebuild-2024-03-26/
Conservatives would rather die of diabetes and have a wall instead
Biden didn't do shit, it started during Trump's last year, not just insulin, many other drugs. Biden really took credit for everything, even covid vaccine, from Operation Warp Speed during Trump. You pasted a link from biden White House, of course they are going to take credit, basically it is their press page. https://www.cms.gov/newsroom/press-releases/president-trump-announces-lower-out-pocket-insulin-costs-medicares-seniors
Nike, have you considered changing careers from sneaker cobbler to politician? You seem to really have a knack for understanding the issues and how to address them
I don't. Politicians are too dirty, I will not be able to survive, neither can you. I am doing great, Nike is a side hustle
We are financing Israel because they have to attack unarmed people. Baltimore does not have the priority atm.
There were no arms used on 10/7 ?
Trump reduced the social security burden by 1 million people. Great success.
You sound like you donāt know how infrastructure damage works. The state will go after the ship owners for the bridge damage. An insurance company will end up paying for the damage.
"Add some tariff" -- sounds like taxes to me. But it is the people of Baltimore and US consumers who suffer if the bridge isn't repaired as soon as possible (cars, sugar, and coal are majorly impacted). Insurance, tariffs, etc will all be held up in court for years. The federal govt is doing its job to step in and fund the repair a piece of public infrastructure right now. Insurance money can come later, but the bridge must be rebuilt now.
Reducing Gov spending (as % of GDP) must be number 1 focus but will not happen unless voters demand it. But, unfortunately, the majority of voters think there is a free lunch and happily give federal gov more and more power.
reading these comments you would think yes voters are that stupid to believe the government and want to give them more power. But I think more people are waking up, Blind is just like Reddit, a bunch of stupid extreme left wingers, they don't represent the majority of the voters.
lol. pot meet kettle.
Like how he made Mexico to pay for the wall.
He raised the political bar with Mexico and then settled on the remain in Mexico policy. Thatās how negotiation works. Of course Biden came in and immediately undid those policies and look at the border now. The only bright side is the whole border issue is too obvious for anyone to not see right through the leftās spin.
I understand that. Iām not supporting Biden either. But your post said how he would make them pay. I gave an example how he wanted someone else to pay and what happened.
yep, just like he "pushed thru" the wall paid by Mexico, a new healthcare plan and all those infrastructure projects. we can expect more of the same great promises if he wins. he is really skilled at talking.

What was your money well spent thing?
You do know that it was a local pilot from Maryland driving the ship?
I am not blaming the captain or the good workers, if you read what I said. The boat is owned by the Singapore-based Grace Ocean Pte Ltd but managed by Synergy Marine Group, also based in Singapore. It was carrying Maersk customers' cargo, according to a statement from the shipping company.
