I’m interested in your non professional dealings with the ATO. Feel like I’m getting a window view into the cogs of the machinery and such

Life changed, thank you
Which is why 100s of history academics rate him as the 3rd lowest of the lowest of US Presidents.
That list includes both bad democrat and bad Republican presidents. The latest survey has ranked him him at #43 of 45.
So for all your enthusiasm advocating for him, this learned group begs to differ.
2021 C-Span Historians Survey
Why are you sending me Wikipedia? I have plenty of toilet paper.
The polls of historians rated him as 44 or 45. Not as high as 43!
Who wipes their butt on a screen?
I’m not surprised.

And you’re definitely using it for this troll trip
What I find frustrating with US politics, is how much money is funneled by lobbyists to political parties on both sides, to influence policy making. What some of these politicians are worth, considering that some haven’t had any other jobs, is staggering. Probably happens everywhere thinking on it. Just the size and scale of it in the US is mind blowing.
Is there transparency laws for donations in campaign funding? Be interesting to see who is funding what. Big oil, google, facebook, Amazon, wall street, etc.

You’ll find that those you mentioned are funding just enough politicians on either side to prevent anything meaningful from occurring.
Generally speaking big oil, mining and ‘dirty’ industries fund more Republicans, and big tech/silicon valley funds more Democrats, with Wall Street funding both sides more or less the same.
I’m speaking in very broad terms though.
And pharmaceutical companies paying everyone off, which is why the health care system remains as it is.

A major part in why so many Democrats are anti-medicare for all and were anti-Bernie.
Can’t believe I forgot to mention them.
Yep, they also wanna keep pot illegal and pot offenders in prison while people all over the place are overdosing on oxy and fentanyl.
