    Kinda speaks to a broader problem that it is competitive.

    I get shopping at Walmart. I used to to shop there almost exclusively, but then they pissed me off on a couple of orders, and I quit using them for over 2 years. Now they are a rare place I go.

    We finally have a COSCO that is being built less than a mile from my house.

    They leveled almost 150 houses in the process. Those who lived there got PAID.

    The ground looks like a hellscape at present, but this time next year I might get a gallon of gas for less than 3 bucks.

    Guilderland Costco expected to be built by end of 2025

    It solves the problem of taxpayers being stuck with other people's bills.

    I'm not a fan, because it doesn't cut spending. Rand Paul's bill was probably the best actually proposed. I would radically gut the federal government and eliminate the income tax, but that was never even floated as far as I know. Tax cuts are not spending though, so other people getting tax cuts doesn't enrage me.

    GTFO of here you effing liar. For the last 4 years we had to listen to your endless gaslighting about the walking corpse with dementia and cancer aka Joe Biden. This is the greatest scam perpetrated by the Dems aided by useful idiots like this clown woke123.

    we are being so thoroughly outmaneuvered and played…Trump is too stupid and the rest of his regime way too unqualified and incompetent to handle something like this

    Idk how somebody can’t be embarrassed for our country right now…these low IQ idiots have turned us into a joke

    these countries know that intellectually, we are way out of our depth, and when push comes to shove, u can just toss these greedy grifters a plane, give a family member money, or green light one of their business ventures and you’ll get what u want
