Some normalcy, regardless of party would be nice and beneficial for every normal person.Italy will be great. Probably going during the summer myself. โ๏ธ๐Enjoy your trip! ๐ฎ๐น

The sad part is, our hillbilly mountains still afford us a far better quality of life than 99.9% of Europe and their hundreds of years of history.Hilarious how warped your perception of America is when your media is MSNBC on steroids. You actually think every day life is impacted at all by Trump lol.

April 16Apr 16 Thanks President Trump.What's the average cost of a dozen eggs?The average price of a dozen eggs in a US city hit $5.90 in February 2025; jumping by 19.2% in just one month, from $4.95 in January. The price of eggs is higher than ever before, with the previous peak at $4.82 in January 2023, and has nearly doubled since the same time last year.

April 16Apr 16 West Virgina is a great state to visit if you like nature and outdoor activities. Lots to do and see. However, it most certainly isnโt a great place to live.

The Appalachians are very underrated and the West Va sections are some of the best. Of course there are lots of depressed old mill/mine towns but you can work around the worst parts and the people are mostly nice and down to earth. On the other hand, it will be full on MAGA though with a gazillion rednecks, hicks, and lowlifes mixed in so youโll have to be ok with that aspect if you would actually consider a visit.
