Do you really think what you're paying unemployment insurance actually covers what you receive?

Where are all the workers? Here in Massachusetts there isn't a business to be found that doesn't need employees. I mean the help wanted signs are just about everywhere. Fast food restaurants closing at 8:00 even though they're offering $17.00 or $18.00 per hour which is $4.00 above our minimum...

The Constitution should be a major part of police training and police training should be more than six months. Know the 1st and 4th amendments and set up your phone to stream any encounter. Bad cops fear being recorded.

The Buzz kill was being in a NH daily for months surrounded by truly sick covid victims and then believing I was positive. In hind sight I wasn't really that worried or stressed because I knew it was a batch of 5. It's a lot cheaper to test in batches usually consisting of 10 people. If a batch...

I was a false positive with four other people in a time stamped batch because the viral count was too high. Retest negative of course just a "mistake". Before the retest had come back I told my friends good bye, confessed to the wife for 30 years of "stuff", pulled out living will, health care...

Okay I was wrong. This pox on the world ended up being far more severe than I anticipated. If I had known how protracted the fight would be I would have bought some stock in face masks and rubber gloves. I don't like admitting my feelings but I couldn't have projected more poorly on the bed.

That's pretty funny. I guess if you subtract the four days a week he goofed off playing golf it gave him far less of an opportunity to wreak havoc.

Frankly my friend I think we came out of those four years surprisingly well. Even with the damage done to every facet of the gem we call the world I can imagine how badly things could have gone. The damage done is painful but anything he did is reparable. I can envision scenarios in which that...

I guess a took a wild shot at that one but I wasn't certain.. who is 94, 95 and 96. My brother's children in Connecticut get two sets of books and two computers one set for home and the other set for school. The town doesn't want them to hurt their backs. Two stinking computers for a child

I'm a bit uncomfortable referring to states like Alabama, Mississippi as shit holes even if they are. I honestly don't know the numbers but I'd bet they rank 49th and 50th in education and educational funding. WTF, Maybe education wouldn't make a different.

Maybe we should have stepped into the Australian/Trade disputes or maybe we still should. Upward of 50% of Australia's exports go to China. If the Chinese stop buying wool and lamb from the United States ain't no big thing (except to the producers). If the Chinese stop buying US coal and Iron...

Great point!!! It was sarcasm because our s*** is just as foul has any other country and probably more. The US has no problem shipping our hazardous waste to third and forth world countries or any reservations about shipping our our cigarettes overseas. The ones we buy here say make us birth...

Boy oh boy there are going to be some very wealthy people who will benefit greatly from this pandemic. Companies like CVS who get the vaccine for free from the feds can charge the consumers a fee for administration. We're just not sure yet how much those fees will be. There must be a lot of...

HaHa. The number of questionable drugs that I've introduced into my system the least of my worries is a vaccine. Either, petroleum products and who knows what else. Vaccines do not have a long history of causing serious side effects. Sure there are examples but it's a risk I was willing to take...

Biden's next step is rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure. Our bridges are falling down. Our highways are in disrepair. Our rail system should still be running steam engines it's so antiquated. There are just so many necessary projects and they need to get done before the bridges hit the...

In an effort to oust Trump Democrats would have rallied around an untrained monkey. Biden is getting a little bit old but what he's done that's so few do is surround himself with extremely intelligent people who he is not going to fire if they disagree with him. Trump however was always the most...

Dual standards like so many things. The United States has no problem supporting a dictator friendly to our goals and aspirations but we're outraged when dictators don't subscribe to our goals and we have no problem assisting them out of power. China's downfall in the long-term is the damage...

China is not a communist country so much as it a dictatorial authoritarian regime. By definition alone the Chinese are proving themselves to be capitalists and not communist. The rapid rise of the middle class, the upper class, the millionaires and billionaires don't seem to support any...

I am not a trump supporter or a trumptard or a troll but I have been looking for some evidence that Trump did have a couple successes. I figured with four years he must have done something good even if he did it unintentionally. The one success that I don't think can be disputed is the...

If you don't like the looks of the ducks bill N95s try wearing them with a duckling yellow PPE gowns. You look like a quack. I'm not sure it's been empirically determined if you've had the virus you can't pass it or that you can't be reinfected. It's ok to forget you have your mask on in your...
