Every time a Democrat gets caught on tape saying like “Some Trump voters are racist” we have a national scandal and JD Vance demands an entirely new kind of apology and meanwhile every Republican group chat is like “Good morning fellow SS members. Who’s ready to respect Hitler today?”

The survey takes about 2 minutes. Note that there are some leading questions, designed to discourage you from selecting the IRS option, e.g. if you say you want to select an IRS product, you get a pop-up explaining the costs to the IRS. But this would be far less than paying a private vendor!

Look. Imagine you like brats and beer.
You brew beer.
Your neighbor likes beer but doesn't brew.
Your other neighbor raises pigs and makes brats, but doesn't drink.
So you sell beer to the first guy, and use the money to buy brats from the second guy.
Now you've got beer AND brats. Total win.

#Washington folks: HB 1584 is an attempt to take away vote by mail in our state, forcing us to only vote in-person on election days. Making it harder for people to vote is voter suppression. Use the link to message state reps and tell them to reject this bill!
