My retiree F500 company healthcare increased 400% over last 5-years (then they pushed me to marketplace this year where it's another 2.5x higher) so I doubt they'll be able to afford that chunk out of whatever paycheck they pull; they'll be working to pay premiums IF they can find what you outline.

Been here 12-yrs without that happening

Too funny! I retired to Vegas where $9 will buy me 2-slices of pizza that equal 1/3 of a large pie plus a tall iced drink (Brooklyns) If you're dumb enough to fall for Disney style pricing on the strip, that's on you. Still home to the $5 T-Bone & MANY Srs eat out @ casinos with Sr pricing & offers.

I have a hard time getting excited by either party grand standing for cameras trying for viral clips & news. Voted for people to legislate but all we've got are minor celebs trying to outdo one & other for clicks. Both sides suck - Congress has collapsed into bigger side wins, USA loses.

Allegedly? Like most folks with money, he has a legal prescription for his chosen addiction. My former employer wouldn't allow me to work on pain meds but DJT knowingly let this guy rape the government on antidepressant hallucinogenics. x.com/brianstelter...

I don't disagree with the positives but I do feel it's a ploy; he was governor & didn’t do it - it's vote buying because more people make less than pay less. Be well.

Remember, with higher wages, come higher payroll taxes, SSI, MC, & benefit rates; it isn't just the extra buck to the employee they have to recapture & these businesses are already paying more (just like their workers!) on ALL fixed & variable costs just to tread water. Bigger picture.
comment in response to post
Higher wages across the region are very good; higher wages in a local just drive employers to either relocate or hire remote (and pay the rate where the employee lives) or use fewer employees in THIS economy. IMHO this is like "no tax on tips" & the job doesn’t have the reach to keep the promise.
comment in response to post
Works for the dummies that voted for Trump; no mention of the fewer higher paid employees doing more or lost small businesses waged out of existence; they don't matter & voters won't figure out that forced higher wages will equal fewer jobs & businesses offloading to low wage districts.

So disappointed in the network and its hack job while giving the stupidest POTUS a pass while he destroys lives world-wide.

Sounds like there was a pretty solid reason the Biden Admin was looking at SpaceX polluting our oceans & endangering air travel with their faulty rushed BS. Any other company would have their contracts & future flights frozen until full review, understanding, and corrections were made.

The brain drain at the Fed level these next 3+ years will be devastating; hope someone's getting their contact info to bring them back later (with full seniority)!

As usual, liar man just can't resist... he has no "friends".

And his butt hurt excuse on days of NATIONAL protest in every state? We can't be everywhere at once... where's my check btw? Nobody has paid me yet to be there or bring my own home prepared "stuff".. we speak OUR minds, not MAGA preprinted hate trope because we CARE & are AWARE of Trump as a THREAT!
comment in response to post
And thus he wins elections because there are just that many idiots in this country who not only agree with him but would utter the same idiotic uninformed top of the head thoughtless ramblings & like him, many also hold graduate degrees. The depth of our proud USA general stupidity is mind-numbing.

Wish some of the ambulance chaser firms would chase these folks down and represent them for wrongful profiling detainer & injuries.

Talking heads that glean book material from countless interviews containing opinion, innuendo, hearsay, and speculation while reading scripts does not make the compiler a journalist any more than it makes them a writer. It's called distractionary sensationalism & no doubt CNN gets a cut of sales $$

As an older retired person (pre-medicare!) I know how it feels with younger people constantly chasing your job without the patience to learn or earn it - like swimming with crocodiles 🐊 Much better experience to mentor qualified people into their roles & act as advisor as they take the helm.

Having faced several cancer fights & deaths in my family, it is clear that it comes & moves at an unpredictable rate. We don't psa test men at that age because we know it's there, but INSURANCE doesn’t want the treatment expense & hopes something FREE takes them first. How effing immoral can we be?
comment in response to post
We need a new system that recognizes knowledge & experience but also honors people of the generation being served. Anyone over a certain age needs slipped into non voting emeritus advisors on committees with zero staff @ 1st year pay & their seats filled by people born after 1975 (rolling #) ~<50.
comment in response to post
Wondering what the bookies have #47 Covid deaths at.. higher or lower than #45 ineptitude murder rate? If there's any silver lining to this story, the USA (and countries who rely on OUR supplies) will stand alone in decimating deaths once we're banned from intl travel.
comment in response to post
He essentially craps in the pool & expects everyone to ignore it & keep swimming. I am a firm believer in tariffs or import or destination fees being called out because they aren't sales tax & they aren't the sale. TOTAL SALE +TAX +IMPORT TARIFF =GRAND TOTAL
comment in response to post
They wanted all kinds of money for me to claim the car but it was totalled; what it did have was 4-brand new Tiger Paws worth more than the bill so I asked him if he wanted the bill & I would sell the tires to pay it or did he want the tires in exchange? He took the tires LOL & I got my belongings.

Had a company in LA try this with me after they recovered my stolen car wrecked on the freeway; they got a LOT more compliant after I spoke to the manager & informed him that I would be calling the sheriff & charging him with theft for ANYTHING missing from the car.

I'm over 60 and in my generation when you "86" someone (or something), you are literally throwing that person (or thing) out. Bouncers "86" drunks & miscreants while I "86" home items I have no use for. To me, "8647" means to oust dumbass from the office.. to throw him away (impeach). That simple.

Keep talking to EVERYONE about Trump’s endless corruption. It’s up to all of us to talk with neighbors and friends and be specific about these acts. Educate those who don’t have the time or maybe resources to learn about these investigations. Thank you, ProPublica! #Impeach bsky.app/profile/citi...

Hopefully that hat is gonna end up as karma for his prison term starting in '28 after his impeachment in '27 following the midterm sweep in both houses in '26. That's one we he can serve that everyone will be pleased with ;-)

So glad I dumped that stock when they split off

I've been accused of having 'Biden Blinders' on but the reality is that all mainstream media has to offer on the topic is backroom gossip & speculation. In the meantime, they have CLEAR mental decline & Constitutional violations fully on display with Trump. Our finite time is being wasted on Biden.
comment in response to post
Rather than speak that out loud, they play games trying to be a just & good fit for all. Electorate isn't there; USA will elect the devil before a gay, woman, or non-white gets into that office. Sorry, USA only elected a 1/2 minority in '08 & isn't ready for a 100% black man yet IMHO. We are SO effd
comment in response to post
So damned tired of Dems being so damned socially conscience that they focus on a utopia rather than the reality of our racist misogynist electorate; Obama only got in because his mom was white & he's the right gender. No female or 100% non white will get elected in America for YEARS to come.
comment in response to post
Joe Biden has appeared multiple times since leaving office & appears healthy & vibrantly enjoying his wife & his life. This topic is total nonsense because his term is HISTORY! Focus on the felon grifter in office... and Biden would have got the racist misogynist vote Harris (Clinton) lost & he WON!
comment in response to post
Last time I looked, the Statue of Liberty hadn't been moved to Grover Clevelands estate or library for his personal use post presidency. As an aside, USA is too broke to retrofit Trumps no class aeropimp mobile as AF1 for BILLION$ to then pay to remove such fittings in 2028 for his private use!

God, I hope she's not there next time!
comment in response to post
Did Congress approve this gift? The millions required to security sweep & rewire + upgrade comms, refueling(?), weapons & defense should be paid by Trump if this is already slated to be donated to his library for his personal use. This plane doesn’t meet AF1 BASIC spec standards! #NoTaxDollars
