$24/hr is the regular pay rate. Most plow drivers can get plenty of overtime (federal tax free now).

It's not just Jews. Hochul is not a popular governor around the entire state. The city is the only reason she might get another term.

This is a bit of a straw man. Unlike Leo, Trump was elected AND has a short expiration date. He's seen as a bulwark against a woke movement that has/had captured the Democrat party. In this sense, I believe that he's granted more leeway because what's the alternative?

It's raising the price of non-US commodities and increasing the incentive for increased US commodities and manufacturing development. This isn't economic checkers.

Why do you need a law? There is already one: the law of supply and demand. If the ticket prices are too high, then demand will drop and the prices will adjust down.

Much of corporate America has stepped back from DEI significantly. Education is the most resistant bastion for this type of virtue signaling.

This is a recipe for scalping.

It's not a scam. It's insurance. Millions of people pay for auto insurance they never use.

Back then, the tick population was controlled through the widespread use of DDT pesticides. When they stopped using it (to help save bald eagles) the ticks came back strong.
