Why would dollars beat votes?

Dollars are used to fund programs to get people to vote for your candidate and not the other.

Biden definitely tried to solve the problem. However, immigration was being drummed up as a big issue and it was one of the few issues attracting people to vote Republican, mainly due to fearmongering.

And an oversimplified account of immigration was used to paint a “bOtH sIdEs” argument to get people who would vote Democrat to not vote.

Votes beat dollars all the time. That’s how AOC got elected in the primary.

And the response from the public was apathy. There were third party candidates or even people voting “none of the above”. And it affects downballot initiatives and races.

Yeah, but people went back to Trump.

Biden was a very liberal president, but immigration was probably one of the more conservative things his administration did.

It depends. Some areas with really bad smog have problems where the air in an area doesn’t mix with the surrounding air, trapping it and making it harder for the smog to dissipate. This is a common issue for cities in inland valleys.

Republican policies has no political upside

But it has been a major problem where Democrats supporting non-Republican policies aren’t defended and they lose elections.

An article I read also stated they didn’t question the Portuguese immigrants.

If someone is an able bodied person who is able to work, voluntary euthanasia would not benefit most societies. There would be to be rampant unemployment to make it near a benefit to society, which is usually more of a sign than the society is such instead of the individual.

Most economic research into the topic have been on those with severe disabilities, deteriorating medical conditions, and when end of life should occur. At that point, there isn’t an economic value keeping someone alive while there is a high economic cost in doing so.

If you’re able to work, it isn’t a benefit for society if you kill yourself.

If you had enough organization to implement a general strike, Trump wouldn’t be president.

But why is there a two party tango?

Democrats will implement some policies and laws and then see support collapse as Republicans get voted in. Then people who didn’t vote will complain that Republicans got voted in and dismantled what Democrats were able to do.

Yeah.

A main discussion around the election was that people said they wouldn’t vote for Biden due to his support of the Palestinian genocide. A counterargument to it was that Trump was going to be a better Israeli ally than Trump, so it isn’t like the situation would improve with either candidate on this issue.

Trump has paused billions in federal spending, but he is making sure Israel gets its aid.

The Speaker of House wields a lot of power, including deciding what gets brought up to vote in the House.

The current speaker is not a Democrat.

That’s some ceasefire.

It is kind of descriptive…

If this was independently owned, what likely happened is that the owner hired a company to do this, then lost the documentation of how to change it or just forgot how to do it. When it came time to change prices, they didn’t know what to do, so they just taped prices on.

There is the Ultra HD Blu-ray. The problem is that not enough people are buying it.

A lot of it can as simple as kids not wanting to live in the small towns that their parents live in to far worse.

Japan has been undergoing deruralization for decades.

This is more of a technical matter, but how does this European Court of Human Rights verdict get incorporated into law?

The US Supreme Court’s verdicts get implemented rather easily because the US uses common law where judicial rulings become law and lawyers get a wide berth to interpret laws. In contrast, France has a civil law system, where judges are supposed to interpret the law rather narrowly and verdicts aren’t supposed to have any legal weight.
