I hope one day I can own something
You can always own debt.
[color=-navy]Its actually raining today and no not sprinkling but heavy rain. [/color]
I'd rather not own debt. My only debt currently is my student loans which will hopefully be paid off by the federal government. Not because of Bernie, but because I work in the public sector.
The rain was very nice today. One of my favorite things is to be nice and dry inside and watch the rain through the window.
But there must be some chemical in the rain that causes amnesia, because everyone forgot how to drive.
Happy Friday the 13th
On the few rainy days in this desert that I live in, I do my best to enjoy it. I'll sit and look out into the back patio and remember all the days of rain I've hiked in. Being warm and dry is especially nice when you haven't been.Quote:

That is incredibly perverted. The very people that put their health at risk to help others and are probably the most likely to be infected, you don't want to insure they get paid sick leave, you want to try and forces them to come to work. My daughter is a critical care nurse and has already said that she has accepted the fact she will get infected but plans on working till she does. I hope that part of the bill is changed, got a feeling it might blow up in their face by angering the very people their depending upon.Quote:
The revised legislation also specifies that employers could exclude health care workers and emergency responders from either paid leave provision, amid fears of staffing shortages among medical providers. The original measure would have given that power only to the Department of Labor.
edit: Dam, just realized I posted this in the wrong thread. :o
It's not totally wrong. It's the post race, so you're entirely on topic.
There is no on topic in post race
Get some nuts

Yay! Go nuts!
So our government seems more worried about giving us cash than they are about giving us testing. I told my kid if I die don't call the authorities until they cash my check. lol
I think the cash is a sensible measure to get through the inevitable economic impact that's going to come from this. But, yeah, tests too. Surely.
They can pass out cash far more easily than they can fix all the shortages around tests in this country.
Hopefully, they won't be passing out cash to EVERYBODY. I don't think that I should get it, but I probably will. The people who need it are the ones who are out of work or quarantined. It's probably too hard to target the right people.
The cash isnt enough to really help people. Plus Newsome just stated that the state has a surplus of 21 billion. So then why are they always saying we are broke and need more taxes?
Plus, whats the point of giving cash if we still cant buy toilet paper? lol
Welllll........it IS paper.......Quote:
