Ok, we have state mafia, and county mafia and town mafia.

Dirty politics is rampant in this Dem controlled state.

There'll be some states that will just CLAMOR for these things!

I fear you are right.

Not necessarily the citizens of those states, although some might, but the governing classes..

Here’s the latest on the ‘AI bubble’ with some rather shocking numbers.

Translated: They are desperate to create demand. IMHO. Sooner or later, they’re going to have to answer for all that capital outlay on data centers.

Just ask ChatGpt that exact question and you’ll get a comprehensive answer.

I’d do it for you but it’s Boxing Day and I’m busy picking out junk for the butler, the cooks, the maids, the gardeners, etc.

Sorry. Happy Boxing Day!

A little closer to home.

You have to zoom in - a LOT! - to see a town located at the right edge of the image.
