If only there was some less ridiculous or wasteful way of keeping a calendar on a fridge, like a white board or something. Its too bad in the history of fridges that there was no way to keep a calendar on it, its just impossible to
“So much of what has happened and what’s going on here is totally out of our control,” Meadows said. “We just want a free, fair, and open market where we can sell our goods... as competitively as anybody else around the world. And we do feel that we produce a superior product here in the United States, and we just need to have the markets.”
The Republican small government, everyone
Why do I feel like these same people would say Biden’s economy was worse for them?
Do you really want to be operated on by someone who has an unyielding boner when youre lying there cut open on the table? If anything should be a boner killer I would think thats it
He actually genuinely called himself the “president of peace” which seems like an absolutely thinly veiled way of him saying hes like Jesus. No surprise that the antichrist would rip off the “prince of peace” branding
Tbf the study part, which is buried pretty deep in the article, says that having 1 drink per day gives a 1 in 1,000 risk of dying from an alcohol related cause, and 2 drinks per day is 1 in 25. Those are probably significantly more problematic odds than the carcinogenic aspects of eating red meat or even of smoking. Definitely worse than what anyone would guess, even if they know alcohol is bad for you already
Think of all the people who maybe have quite a few drinks on the weekend but wouldnt consider themselves alcoholics by any means, they could have a 1/10 chance (or worse) of dying from drinking without even drinking every day
As someone who has been living here for a while now, I would say Colorado moreso masquerades as a reasonable state than actually being all that reasonable.
For one, property values run everything in this state to an insane degree. Most starter size homes in the state, even in towns without a real grocery store or much of anything, will run you nearly a million dollars (if not more). Its blatantly unsustainable and yet nothing is being done to fix it.
TABOR is a stupid system that is only better than legitimate corruption, which is what people compare it to. Realistically it is worse than keeping the tax money and spending it on improving things here. I would much rather not get a few hundred dollars back in a check each year if it meant that local public services didnt have to keep jacking up sales taxes so that they can continue to function. Especially when, as stated beforehand, we could properly tax the absolutely insane property value. Even just taxing second/vacation homes would be great… and yet no one wants to do that because then the housing market might actually cool off.
Im not saying we dont have nice things. We do. But everything about how this state is run caters to millionaires and then tells everyone else to get fucked if they cant hack it. Teachers here get paid worse than almost every other state in the country, despite the fact that we should be able to have the highest quality education system anywhere. If we funded it with property taxes especially, but thats a non-starter of course.
My town’s school and fire department are both failing financially and all anyone seems to want to do to fix it is jack up sales taxes. No more taxes on property. No more taxes on lodging or STRs. No, lets just tax the working class people to death as they try to afford already inflated food prices.
This state is as stupid as it is beautiful much of the time, unfortunately. The whole thing is a house of cards type bubble just waiting to pop, and its gonna be violent when it goes
The bidding was open only to small firms such as Acquisition Logistics, which receives preferential status because it’s classified as a veteran and Hispanic-owned small disadvantaged business.
Ken A. Wagner, the president and CEO of Acquisition Logistics, did not respond to phone messages or emails.
Awfully German ass name for this allegedly hispanic-owned business’s Prez/CEO
If they told you, they would have to kill you
