Good news for my 401K pension fund
Regardless of the reasons it means this time that you effectively have a country with no real leadership for 2 months as Trump continues to sulk and play golf. With the deaths from the pandemic approaching 250,000 in the USA it couldn't have happened at a worse time. Biden is ready to treat this...
One thing about the US Constitution I can't get my head around is the period between electing a President and actually installing him in the White House - nearly 2 1/2 months. In most other countries it seems to be almost instantaneous or within a week. I suppose up until now it has worked as...
