2 economic recessions?? If you don’t count anything in the 80s or 90s then you at least have:
Dot com bubble
Subprime mortgage crisis
Covid
Whatever you wanna call what’s been happening the past 2 to 4 years. I don’t care what the stock market says. Working people are experiencing an economic downturn.
2??? WTF
Not OC but I agree with him. Where I live, the toll roads are owned by private corporations, some of them entirely foreign owned corporations, and the rates are obscenely high. It isn’t about maintaining the road; instead it is about rent seeking behavior and maximizing shareholder profits. That is abhorrent to me. Public goods should be owned by the public.
I come from a family of carpenters, building all kinds of stairs for most of my life, and I’ve never heard of this. This is why I love construction; learn something new all the time. Thanks!
MotoGP. I’ve never met or interacted with anyone else who enjoys it. I freaking love it
You had me really concerned until that last sentence. That is so freaking sad.
Agreed. Where do you draw the line between downvoting and potentially feeding the trolls? I’m having a hard time with that. When someone is acting like an ignorant contrarian, I’m inclined to ignore them.
This is the correct database to use. In the US, we haven’t invested any official effort into updating our drinking water standards in many decades. So take whatever your municipality or water supplier says about your water quality, with a grain of salt. Maybe a very large bag of salt.
Agreed! I feel like so many disgusting trolls all over the news these days would disappear if we would just stop talking about them. Don’t feed the trolls!
I’m not sure why you’re getting down votes for this. Isn’t having some redundancy or backup plan a good idea? What am I missing here?
Absolutely can relate. There is nothing more loathsome to me than some bright-eyed, extrovert eager beaver early in the morning
War on Terror BS War on Drugs BS
It is a rather long list of BS
