God is a Republican ROTFLMMFAO
"I hate to break this to you, but God is a Republican. You're a good man EihTooms. And I want you to be prepared when you meet your maker.
I too will continue to pursue the work I was sent into this world to do, that is, converting Democrats to small government, free market liberalism.
You're a really tough nut to crack, and it will be quite a feather in my cap if I can bring you around. It would be like converting Mohammed to be a Methodist. I'll keep trying. "
I'm a militant atheist, but if there was a god I'm sure he wouldn't be a democrat, which are a bunch of evil baby killers.
And most republicans that would rather permanently destroy the Globes natural environment and enslave the entire planet for an extra 0. 025% return on investment.

Are you drunk again? ET a good man? WTF you've obviously never met him LMAO.
But I digress, if there was a GOD I'm sure he would be more akin to Siddhartha or King Trump.
Working for their pay is anathema to Repub politicians. For positive results, that is

This current Repub Pink Smaller and Smaller All The Time Tinkle House has won the Silver Medal this year in the Most Do Nothing Congress Olympics. The All Repub Congress of the All Repub Repub Great Depression retains its place on the platform as Gold Medal Winner but only by a nose. And I suspect Repub Cry-Baby Speaker (no) Boner that presided under Obama and whose mission along with Repub Senate Leader Moscow Mitch was to Do Nothing and leave all the heavy lifting and political risk-taking to Obama-Biden and the other Dems to pull us and the rest of the world out of the Historic Repub Economic Crash and Near Great Repub Depression their Repub policies and stewardship created and handed to incoming Obama-Biden to fix must have a slew of Bronze Medals on that particular Olympic event:
[B]The Least Productive Congress Since The Great Depression.

[QUOTE]With only 21 bills making it into law halfway into November, the 118th Congress, controlled by Republicans in the House and Democrats in the Senate, is on the most sluggish pace to make law since the Congress that met during 1931 and 1932.
Back then, Herbert Hoover was president, the Great Depression had started and talking movies were still new.
Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), part of a group in the House that has stopped several spending bills from advancing to the Senate, saw his frustration boil over on the House floor Wednesday.
"One thing. I want my Republican colleagues to give me one thing one! that I can go campaign on and say we did, he said. Anybody sitting in the complex, if you want to come down to the floor and come explain to me, one meaningful, significant thing the Republican majority has done. [/QUOTE]Chip, there isn't even one significant or meaningful legislation or result proposed by, fought for and passed by Repubs when they controlled the White House, House and Senate since the inception of the Repub Party. Ever. Unless you count the crap they got done in the mid 1920's that resulted in their Great Repub Crash and Great Repub Depression that hit in 1929. That is the only significant result of an All Repub Control of the Federal Government that can be cited in history. Or, as (no) Boner would sell his Party's persistent Do Nothing Laziness, the "best" kind of work and results a Congress should ever produce. LOL.
The world is full of anti-LGBTQ "BCD bangers"
[QUOTE=Tiny 12;2877223]I don't see how you can call him anti LGBTQ. He was banging an "L" in LGBTQ, for goodness sake[/QUOTE]
Florida Republican Party Chairman, Christian Ziegler, my very well be "anti-L in LGBTQ", I called him and his wife, [b]"hypocrites"[/b].
And don't be so frickin' naive!
The world (and history) is full of men (and women), that will gladly fuck the "L-G-B-T to the Q", [u]behind closed doors (BCD)[/u], and yet openly in public, denounce and declare "war" against said group of people.
Republicans Christian and Bridget Ziegler are a great example of said hypocrisy. That is why I called Christian Ziegler, [i]an adulterer, cheater, [b]LGBTQ hypocrite[/b], liar and all-around phony. [/i]
Well, so much for that piddling trillion Repubs hope you'll think they saved the USA
Aside from the easily predictable massive increase in the deficit once today's Repub Pink Smaller and Smaller All The Time Tinkle House gets fully on track reinforcing and celebrating their lord and savior Trump's most disastrous economy-crippling "achievements", we must include this as their own remarkable "achievement" in taking money out of the pockets of the American taxpayer and skyrocketing their deficits.

LOL. It is hilarious that anyone could point to one utterly irrelevant benefit for no one by their reducing the investment of provable recovery measures and therefore delaying the recovery from Trump's Repub Economic Disaster as a "savings" while they are also rabid proponents and practitioners of favorite Repub Party moves that genuinely cost America and American taxpayers more money, produce higher deficits and, oh as an added bonus for Repubs, provides at least a Trillion Dollars in free publicity and positive press for every anti-democratic authoritarian dictator and wannabe authoritarian dictator on the planet. Every time they do it. As this current Repub Loon House has done.
Shades of the usual Repub Party scam of dangling disproportionately greater tax cuts for top income margins and corporations but with the price of that ticket being another Great Repub Depression / Great Repub Recession and Massive Job Destruction, of course. It is such a blatant, woefully obvious misdirection con. But they get away with doing it as long as their benefactors in Mainstream Media continue to insinuate that their beloved Repub candidates probably "handle the economy better than Democrats."

[QUOTE]...
But the retail industrys own figures on shrink cast doubt on their claim that the problem is ballooning. Researchers say retailers may be blaming theft for losses when they dont actually know the cause.
..
But, in fact, the average shrink rate as a percentage of sales dropped to 1.4% in 2021 from 1.6% in 2020, according to the latest NRF survey. That number has hovered around 1.4% for more than a decade.
Whatever the numbers say, though, retailers maintain that organized retail crime has gotten worse.
...
Companies and law enforcement experts say the growth of online shopping has allowed criminals to quickly find ways resell stolen merchandise on online marketplaces like Amazon. Retailers have pushed legislation during the pandemic that would crack down on websites reselling stolen goods.
Organized retail crime is just one component of retailers inventory losses.[b] Its not the largest and is a lower percentage of overall shrink than it was five years ago,[/b] according to the NRF surveys.
...
Many brick-and-mortar chains are under pressure from Amazon and other competitors. They have struggled with higher costs for labor, transportation, and other expenses [b]during the pandemic, as well as supply chain challenges.[/b]
They have more control over shrink than some of these other forces, retail researchers say.
In an environment where youre looking for any improvement, shrink becomes an area to attack because of all the other costs rising, said Ray Wimer, a professor of retail practice at Syracuse University.
[B]It's also easier for companies and the public to blame theft for store closures and retail struggles than admit stores over-expansion, strategy mistakes and customers abandoning stores for online shopping, said Jonathan Simon, a criminal justice professor at UC Berkeley School of Law.
Its much more convenient if we can blame it on people we already consider reprehensible, he said.
In a major shift, Walgreens, which said it saw a spike in shrink during the pandemic and cited organized retail crime in its decision to close five San Francisco stores in 2021, is backtracking.[/b]
