Infrastructure Bill
Do you mean succesfull programs like this one???

$42 billion

The infrastructure bill created a program called Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment, or BEAD, that aimed to expand internet access in underserved communities.

More than 1,000 days later, the program has not connected anyone to the internet, Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr said on Wednesday, citing a congressional letter.

Its very easy:
Go to the top right hand corner of the page where your screen name is and
click on it....when the pull down menu comes up click on User Control Panel
when that loads, on the left column go to Edit ignore list and click that...then add the name you want to ignore
Simple

No. We're not cherry picking. The national average was 2/3 of what it was during Trump's term, and double what it was when the potato took office. FACT.

The south are not poor. They live simply. There is WAY more money in those hills than you realize. But since you mentioned it, care to look at it on a county level? Yup. The blue counties are where all the poverty resides. ALL of it. Keep trying.

Thanks. Brad.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the national poverty rate was 12.7% in 2023, up from 12.4% in 2022. These states and territory have the highest percentages of poverty in the country: Puerto Rico, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, West Virginia, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Arkansas, New York and Tennessee.

New York surprised me,

Dave,

What you meant to say was New Orleans, Jackson, Albuquerque, Charleston, Louisville, Tulsa, Little Rock and Memphis. Let's not forget Chicago, LA, SF, Seattle, Portland, Atlanta, Cleveland, Detroit.... On and on and on and on... All Blue counties and Leftist run cities. All the sources of their respective states' poverty.

And now you're the one cherry picking. Look at it on a county level. You're not scared of the truth, are you?

Hell, we can even look at it on a chronological basis. Many of these cities used to be rather conservative. And prosperous. But, since falling to Leftist imposition, they've succumb to poverty and crime. And they keep getting worse. They keep voting themselves in the foot.

Keep coping.

Thanks. Brad.

You've got 14 posts on OSO in 4 years.........7 in this thread and 7 in a thread where you pushed your liberalism about people getting the Covid shots.

Not ONE post from you about anything boating related. WTH are you even on OSO??? You can't get enough attention on your FB page like Jay???
***************
Ring a bell griff
Yeah, its a post in this thread, not a private email to you. I never asked anything about changing your screen name. And you never responded to that question until I asked a second time in this thread.

I have been on this page for probably 20 plus years and i have had all kinds of performance and race boats. I raced back in the late 80s early 90s. When the page was sold to whomever i had to change my screen name. Clearly an opposing view is something you and others have a hard time grasping. Im 62 years old and dont have a facebook page sorry. Jayboat is a boat guy i have met him before decent guy, bought pictures from him. Why do you care what i post or not post?
OSO was last sold in JANUARY 2008 and has not been sold since. You had posted as PowerplayDave until JULY 2019 and then,for unknown reasons that had nothing to do with the sale of OSO 11+ years earlier, you created your second screen name, VelocityDave in October 2020. Not sure how you can create a rational correlation between the 2 events.

There is no opposing viewpoint here. These are FACTS.

I always ask but have never gotten an answer but name me 1 government program that by private industry standard would be considered a success. meaning a program that came in at or under budget, within or before the timeline set out and accomplished all the goals originally established for it. so far I have found none.

Your funny trying to break down poverty by party vote. I did a quick search and your wrong again. Poorest county in America is Wheeler county Georgia per capita yearly income 23,545. Voted 69% Republican. Next on the list Union county Florida per capita income 26,538 and once again voted republican. Do better with your research.

Thanks Dave
