45 percent, required'

A tarriff should be earned..When freedom is
Spurned, maybe for a year? A while.' A time.'
Till free speech and expressions can again
Here chime..Can ring..Can raise valid points
Extoll..Quite a blunt weapon, to let commerce
Take its toll.' Still by any means.' Unstifle the
Tounges, that would build and strengthen
All truths true daughters and sons.!

Joe Dimino Date: 4/9/2025 8:34:00 PM Best system is no Tariffs. A small %10 consumption tax would give governments what is needed for daily government business. The man who earns 1 dollar pays 10 cents -- if someone earns 100 thousand he pays 10 thousand. It is fair. Problem is, more difficult to hide theft. Not something politicians want to do. Most running for office are not doing so to serve the people as much as to serve themselves. Term limits is a must. In my opinion. Men with families, young children dependent on them, are not so apt to speak out. Can't blame. Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 4/10/2025 6:11:00 AM Yes, indeed, engineered. Hoping God never says, the heck with them. Leave them entirely to the consequences of their own evil devises, vices. Joe Maverick Date: 4/9/2025 10:21:00 PM All part of the human condition i'll add..

Maria Williams Date: 4/5/2025 3:04:00 AM Dear Joe,your poem feels like a passionate call for truth and the power of free expression. Even if a bit abstract, it seems to be reflecting on how freedom of speech can be suppressed—perhaps temporarily—by forces like commerce or censorship. The final lines really stand out, urgingvoices to rise and strengthen what’s real and honest. A thought-provoking read with a raw, poetic punch! hugs Login to Reply Joe Maverick Date: 4/5/2025 7:06:00 AM Freedom is more precious than we in the west were aware of Maria..Specially prior to the madness of 2020/22.' I see not many responses from Aussies here which leaves me only Two points to consider.? Either they have become over-woke? Or they are concerned at the current repressive regimes agendas' I see that I am not here by mistake.' But to work for my Country unhindered..I do hear reports in the U S A that any critisiam of Isreal is being clamped down upon which is not good at all, there should be a balance in information to populations.'
