Only two days in office and the Biden administration is already considering breaking President Biden’s campaign promise that “anyone making less than $400,000 a year won’t pay a penny more” in taxes.

During his Senate confirmation hearing for Transportation Secretary, Former Mayor Pete Buttigieg told members of the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee that a gas tax increase is “on the table” as a means to pay for infrastructure spending.

When asked directly by Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) if he supported increasing the gas tax and by what amount, Buttigieg replied, "I think all options need to be on the table, as you know, the gas tax hasn't been increased since 1993 and it's never been pegged to inflation."

“There are several different models, in the short to medium term that could include revisiting the gas tax, adjusting it, and or connecting it to inflation," Buttigieg continued when pressed by Sen. Scott to provide more detail.

As for being literally youthful that always sounded like nonsense to me. Assuming kids actually are being tortured and drained of their blood by psychos I wouldnt doubt that such claims were made intentionally to discredit that event though.

Know if that chemical gets absorbed through any other part of the body? Such as the esophagael lining? I would imagine it wouldnt if it didnt do so in the stomach.

The only questions I can think of left is could it be taken in combination with anything to prevent the stomach from breaking it down such as how ayahuasca is?

Beyond that I would have to ask why you believe these things and to what degree have these claims been tested by you?

Just curious why you feel these beliefs should be valued above the other.

Without saying too much, I get the chemistry.

Also, if you drink blood of any quantity, say more than a few ounces, you will throw up.

That much I know is false. History is full of blood drinkers. Human blood or otherwise supposedly. Bloody meat eaters as well. People still drink raw animal blood today too. There are also a good number of dishes that have blood as a major ingredient. Little stopping anyone healthy from consuming blood other than themself.

Cooked blood and raw are two different things. Sipping blood from a cup isn’t enough.
