Wow that Biden stock market!

So far, I'm a staunch Biden Supporter. He's not perfect, he's not Elizabeth Warren, but he knows what he's doing, and I couldn't be happier with his cabinet. Trump was clearly prescient in his desperate (generally illegal) attempts to derail him, over and over.

I support Biden and feel that he is doing a good job. I never agree with everything a president does of course but that’s normal.

The stock market has been doing extremely well these last couple of years. Since my retirement several years ago I've been paying close attention to the market since the vast majority of my retirement savings are tied up in stocks and I've been more than pleased at it's growth.

I'll admit to having been a bit concerned with Biden's potential to do something right away to screw it up but his first couple of months in office don't seem to have harmed anything. These last couple of days though, hopefully they're not the beginning of a trend.

Our elected officials are so bitterly divided because we are bitterly divided. I don’t see a sizable majority crying out for more laws and demanding to be regulated more intensively. There’s no consensus that I can see for destroying the last bits of federalism because we wish to be ruled by a mighty central government.

Many would like the laws back that trump eliminated that helped the environment and laws that helped workers instead of employers. Many people want these laws in place. You are just not looking or don't want to look LDAHL.

How does a President eliminate a law? I'm pretty sure that's impossible.

He didn't eliminate a law by himself, but he and his cronies rolled back 100 or so environmental rules and regulations. King Midas thinks someday he and his grandchildren will be able to eat and breathe the gold that his Trump logo is made of.

By rolling back the administrative rules that were put in place to implement the laws.
