    Interesting. Still no response to my original question, which was why hasn't your candidate fixed the problem in the last 3.5 years.

    Even though https://www.bankrate.com/banking/fed...ebruary%202021 says the inflation rate is down, if you look at the averages for the last three years at https://www.usinflationcalculator.co...flation-rates/ it was noted that the averages haven't been this high since 1991 and the average for 2023 hadn't been that high since 1981.

    So I guess by that, you're saying the VP has no power? Quite the contrary. The VP cast the tie-breaking vote on the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which caused massive inflation due to colossal spending.

    I do not want to have this discussion with you on a public forum. No minds will be changed. Kindness matters. Vote your conscience as I will.

    Thanks for such a brilliant idea. I never thought of a tube per person but it makes so much sense.

    Each family member has their own personal dental and bath products. This was the way when I grew up too. We had one bathroom but each family member had a space in the bathroom closet for their own items. Adults on top shelf, kids on lower shelf with towels on the middle shelves. I remember the floor of the closet had a plunger, a scale, and a pretty painted metal trash can.
