    Millions face shrinking Social Security payments

    Actually Yes, there is a plan. It is not a pension, pensions are something completely different and the word is used in England and Canada. Social Security was a supplement, never meant to be the primary means of income for retired people. The idea in the mid-30's was that with the advent of...

    Obamas begin weeklong Martha's Vineyard vacation

    1 - fiscal responsibility starts at the top. Obama speaks of us taking it on the chin until the country gets better but he himself has no self-control. 2 - we are talking about the BS statements that people believe he is paying for his own vacations. It is BS and nothing more than to trick the...

    EZPass

    How many of you take your bill every month and check it? I have had to deal with the EZ pass people for erroneous charges made on my account a few times. Also check the rates and the times. I went through one toll booth in Chicago 5 minutes after the hour when they were supposed to lower the...

    Obamas begin weeklong Martha's Vineyard vacation

    So.....that is true to a point but if you look at the trips in the past, you can see that this entourage has expanded a lot, which includes the First lady's staff and friends - we have a term for it in the Detroit area that is not meant for forums. You said facts, so there are facts that...

    Obamas begin weeklong Martha's Vineyard vacation

    He doesn't pay for the contingent of planes for all the reporters to go, the guests that are invited, Air Force One and all the support teams outside of the security he has - communications, white house press, first lady's staff (*cough) and even the white house kitchen staff to prepare the...

    Obamas begin weeklong Martha's Vineyard vacation

    Remember this - Presidents never go on "Vacation", they reduce their workload and then spend our money so their family to enjoy time away from being in prison....... I mean the WH. I think as a rule, presidents should not have small children when they run, they should be adults and not a...

    Dyno Testing Damage?

    A lot of the damage from using a dyno is related to the pickup and rice burners put on dyno'es and let loose - sometimes they styay too long on them and kind of do a lot of damage from an engine speed of 9000 rpms. Out of the dozen or so trucks I have had dyno'ed or took to get dyno'ed, not...

    Weigh stations & personal goods

    A truck you rent is different than a truck you own. You can get away with a truck you rent, playing dumb most of the time works and most scales don't care about the Uhaul type rental. If you own it and you pull into the scale, they may make you sit there until you get the right insurance and...

    So Now......

    Lawrence, As my 9000th post, I wanted to write something more fitting than this but as I look at what has happened, What I have read in the different threads and what I know from outside of this site, means something to many people and goes right to an issue that is important to me about a...

    NADA says 80% of clunker claims rejected .

    OK Here is the thing. Once upon a time there was a depression. It was about the same that started this recession, very tight credit. A number of car companies couldn't get credit to make the cars that "would sell" while they had hundreds sitting in their inventory that wouldn't sell. A...

    But do they still define a sprinter load as something oversized (or three pieces) or is it something that weighs X amount of lbs?

    We need to clean house

    but the real problem is the other voters who don't see the problems with their elected officials. Take Michigan for example, we are dying here and not one of our federal representatives has done much in getting jobs. Arkansas and other southern states have benefitted by having aggressive...

    Decision on Mod Issue

    Ark, It mostly has to do with the history of FedEx and the abuses that go on there with contracting resources across the company. Some of us think that it is wrong to have an employee as a mod without any disclosure to what they do or who they actually represent, which in fact is how FedEx...
