Justin Gomez says @abcnews.go.com: ”With fears of a Russian attack on Ukraine remaining a "distinct possibility," President Joe Biden is sending a stark warning to Americans about what he says could be very real economic consequences at home -- especially at the gas pump.

"I will not pretend this will be painless," Biden said Tuesday while preparing Americans to be prepared for higher energy prices in the U.S. if Russian President Vladimir Putin decides to attack Ukraine and the Biden administration in turn puts its "powerful" sanctions in place.”

Biden’s warning again stimulated thought of the enormous effects of political philosophy upon the everyday lives of ordinary citizens.

In that regard, below are a couple of pictures of Mar A Lago, President Trump’s Florida home. He believes every American citizen should have an unbound opportunity to acquire a similar residence, hoping that all have the capabilities to attain their goals. Trump’s own family started from scratch. His Dad, Fred, began a career in home construction and sales. 

From Wikipedia: “Their real estate development company was incorporated as E. Trump & Son in 1927 (later called the Fred Trump Organization). It grew to build and manage single-family houses in Queens, barracks and garden apartments for U.S. Navy personnel near major shipyards along the East Coast, and more than 27,000 apartments in New York City.” 

Whereas in the United States all citizens have free choice, where and how they each reside is up to them. The Trump family currently lives in this home by themselves.

Residential housing can be quite expensive, along with all of the other costs of living. That’s why Republicans, and certainly Trump, believe taxes should be as low as possible with government making every effort and beyond to help citizens afford their livelihoods. Helping control cost of living is also why Republicans, and Trump in particular, did all they could to maximize domestic production and lower costs of necessities such as fossil fuel, the driving force of the nation's economy

Alternatively, those on the left believe that government is better able to manage citizen’s lives, particularly income. That’s why taxation is maximized, enabling administration’s to accumulate and redistribute to all, employed or not, providing each with necessities of life. Naturally, whereas they’re performing a critical managerial role, before redistribution their skim comes off the top.

For citizen’s comfortable with government providing major necessities, such as rent, no real incentive exists to maintain a landlord’s property, which is a reason why so many leftist controlled cities look like that below. Be it New York, Los Angeles, Detroit, Baltimore and all the rest. Additionally, personal safety is also questionable in those locations, whereas the left believes police are prejudicial, racist and physical threats to individuals.

In summary, freedom of choice is the cornerstone of American philosophy, voters deciding for themselves whatever path to choose. Yet, one would think that with proven results of potential outcomes and probabilities of attaining comfortable lifestyles, there’s a definitive likelihood of some sort of derangement syndrome among those comprising the hardcore left wishing to remove all chance of success for themselves and others.

That’s it for today folks.

Adios

PS: Had some thoughts last night about hobbies of several world leaders. Trump and Obama play golf. Harry Truman played the piano. Bill Clinton plays around. And Putin plays Biden like a violin.
