    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    I would agree but only when we look at everything else that the state shouldn't be involved with and eliminate everything except the basic government services; The state law enforcement agencies The DMV Well that's the only two I can think of. All the other services can be handled by the...

    Bill to end the ban on candescent light bulbs

    Seems like their priorities are a bit **** up there. With all the BS going on with our lack of jobs, high debt and the country going into the crapper, they are worried about frickn' light bulbs?

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    Actually it is clear to many that there is no need for a lot of them. Look at it this way, what is the actual need of any state worker outside of law enforcement, education and basic government services? I don't see any. Many of the states can shift the responsibility back to the cities and...

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    I think that many of you are off on a tangent that really is irrelevant. It doesn't matter what they do, calling in sick or what ever, that is an earned benefit that does not really mean much other than to prove that the state can get along without them so just simple reduce the employment...

    How to remake our government

    So where do you get the old system doesn't work, it seems to work until there was external influences from the European experience. The loopholes don't exist, they are part of the safeguards that were needed so we didn't become another UK or France or Unified Italy/Germany. They were not...

    How to start with no experience?

    But John part of the problem with larger companies seems to be that they don't keep all their trucks moving but rather treat them as on demand capacity.

    How to remake our government

    If they end the entitlements tomorrow, what would really happen? I mean the question "And?" happens to pop into my mind when we actually look around and see there is nothing to be feared by this. SO if there is rioting, how long do you think it would take before the rest of usome rioting, some...

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    The ATC people signed a contract as do many other federal employees not to strike. The teachers and other state and city employees do not have that clause in their contracts but in some states there are laws forbidding teachers and others, like cops, from striking under any circumstances. I am...

    Need to find a post by Turtle-

    Danny, Now you know the frustration of newbies when they are told to search for something. I have two threads I still can't find after hours of searching. I gave up and now just copy the entire thread to an EO folder on the computer if it is important so it can be read offline.

    drug tests

    Some people it doesn't show up while others will for 20 to 30 days after. Get it all documented with a letter from the doc, you won't have any problem. Most know what happened to me, so I won't repeat it but will say make notes about which meds you got and when, for what and how many of them...

    CargoMax Vans

    Chef, What happens if it weighs more than what you are told? I would make that part of the deal, send me a weight ticket from a certified scale and I will agree to complete the purchase - contingent on if it meets my requirements.

    Paccar PX8 Fuel Mileage

    I think it would be a 6 speed in it, the only difference is the ecm settings anyway.

    How to start with no experience?

    "What companies will take a complete newbie and would anyone here recommend them?" Despite what people will say - FedEx will take newbies without any experience at all but that is through an established owner and I would never ever recommend it.

    OVM, you keep saying that your sprinter is doing great, but if it ever comes to the forum and reads what you say about it, it may decide to take a vacation on you.

    Very sad a driver found dead

    Well nothing, just like other people who have to deal with it now, there is nothing that makes the exception for them to drive. Beside at 65, or 70 or even 75, I like many others don't expect to get social security at all.

    What holds America together?

    Thanks. Many don't understand where we lost out knowledge and how we can get it back. Sure bilingual kids and adults seem to excel at studies while those who don't care seem to flounder. When you break it down further, the people who take on complex languages like Arabic and Chinese are two...

    What holds America together?

    Well then I have to ask, did you send your kids to public school and are your grandkids in public school? IF so, then you allow them to be involved. TO me the biggest destructive form of education is public education that has been under the control of the feds since 1930's. Our standards...

    What holds America together?

    Layout, what's the difference between a mandatory language classes for French and German and that of Arabic? NOTHING This is A GRANT, it is not a mandatory thing handed down to the school district without their knowledge or wanting it. They wanted to capture the money AND knew what was...
