    Question: Is 3 a number?
    Answer: Thank you for the question. I'm most grateful for this excellent question that has been posed to me. As deputy secretary of labor, I think it is important and vital that we stay engaged with the community. Being responsive and accountable to the public are cherished ideals and, I might add, I like cookies and ponies and will always fight for the well-being of ponies. I think it's noteworthy that I've fought for and advocated for ponies for as long as I could remember and I'm very proud of this and will continue to advocate on behalf of the people and enforce the laws as written. I'm sorry, can you please repeat the question

Missing out on technically anything you could call a life! Having employers telling you what family members are deemed important and which ones you can take bereavement for! We go to work and the government takes damn near half our check in taxes. We go buy goods and services that same money is taxed.
