    The DNC has lost thier mind

    Neither state was counted or campaigned in except Hillary made a stop in FL. She won both, but because they knew the votes wouldn't be counted they didn't do much. Obama wasn't even on the ticket to vote in MI.

    The DNC has lost thier mind

    They are doing it to have another election in MI and FL. The DNC set rules and both states switch their primary dates in violation of the rules. The votes in those states don't count, but of course people want their voices heard. A redo is roughly 30 mil. The DNC said it would entertain the...

    The DNC has lost thier mind

    What I find surprising, then again maybe not, is that their screw up will cost the taxpayers 15 million. I watched Meet the Press this morning and they said they would kick in the matching 15 million so every one in MI and FL can vote.

    You sound like you may be going just a little too fast. First off, you are in a good area. But, that may or may not translate into getting home all the time. Assume that it won't initially. As for pay, if you are paying the fuel is usually 60 percent plus 100 percent of the FSC. You will...

    I think this thread is headed south as we had a debate on ROI and now it has went to a ratings discussion. With regards to the #10 rule, it was already posted by the author as to why she gave whatever ratings she did. For the benefit of the new, it is a value to know that banter back and...

    There are plenty of people with nice custom trucks and enjoy the business. I can't imagine why you would think your the only one? The difference is they are not putting out controversial or inaccurate posts out. You'll also notice they don't have those same responses that some of yours...

    Again, The amount of money gained or lost may be referred to as interest, profit/loss, gain/loss, or net income/loss. The money invested may be referred to as the asset, capital, principal, or the cost basis of the investment. Dictionary explanation. Not mine. But...one I agree with. They...

    General Economic Conditions

    Almost. This is an example of your perception of getting picked on. That has nothing to do with it. When I read comments like "return on investment means nothing", or return on ones investment can't be calculated", I single those kinds of remarks out. Why? Because the new folks are...

    No cheap shots intended. Just a clarification of the facts. Yes, mine differ greatly from yours. In finance, rate of return (ROR) or return on investment (ROI), or sometimes just return, is the ratio of money gained or lost on an investment relative to the amount of money invested. The...
