I’m not sure if you’re using a broken app or something but there is definitely text there. Here are the first three paragraphs.

President Donald Trump has allowec the use of cheaper red-dyed diesel. typically reserved for farm operations, to be used more broadly in an attempt to bring down record-high fuel costs

Trump signed an executive order Monday evening stateside to temporarily allow truckers and farmers to use red-dved diesel - which is exempt from highway fuek taxes - and deferred related taxes on the fuel through the end of this year

The tax-free diesel is typically used by farm equipment, construction machinery, trucks and other off-road vehicles. It is therefore exempt from a 24.4-cent-per-gallon tax applied to dliesel fuel sold for highway transportation.

Who is going to prosecute? The current DOJ?

The most obvious slight of hand here is the suggestion that employer contributions shouldn’t count as part of what employees paid in. That is part of their compensation and shouldn’t be ignored when suggesting that younger generations are paying for baby boomer’s social security.

To me this reads like someone is trying to poison younger people against social security so they won’t complain when it is taken away.

To be clear, they published the rule to the federal register. If the I junctions are lifted, the rule will immediately go into effect. This has no immediate effect and hopefully never will.

@MicroWave@lemmy.world I just want to say thanks for posting quality links so frequently. You’re one of the few who isn’t posting click bait junk like Raw Story and Daily Beast.
