That’s usually about health insurance. Keeps their premiums down if they offer health as a benefit. Doesn’t make it right, but it is not a morality thing on the firm’s part.
Donald Trump, the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination, said on Saturday that he would kill off a Pacific trade pact being advanced by U.S. President Joe Biden if he were to win the 2024 election and return to the White House....
Neither does protectionism. I’m not saying you’re wrong, but isi policies that make imports expensive also hurt the working class. Overall free trade might be fine if it’s combined with a more robust welfare state.
Hundreds of unsheltered people living in tent encampments in the blocks surrounding the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco have been forced to leave by city outreach workers and police as part of an attempted “clean up the house” ahead of this week’s Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation’s annual free trade...
The media is avoiding it…like all the media cited in this post? Or the NY Times article today discussing many of the points in those articles? Or the OP article? I’m so tired of news outlets reporting on news outlets. The news isn’t news, I want actual news about events.

But the head of Hungary. Very tough, strong guy. Viktor Orban, did anybody ever hear him?

Almost 700 people have pleaded guilty or have been convicted for j6. Some of the leaders, like Tarrio, are going away for a very long time. Of course it takes a long time to bring a case against Trump himself, but the narrative that nobody’s facing consequences is a little disingenuous at this point. www.justice.gov/…/30-months-jan-6-attack-capitol

WTF is life coaching? Have a facebook acquaintance who did some class and calls herself one, after being a yoga instructor. Like–why would you take advice from a person of middling success? Is it just another MLM where people calling themselves life coaches teach other people to be life coaches so they can teach more life coaches?
Hey, I found this ‘port’ or ‘socket’ in my glove compartment. I checked the manual and parts list, but could not figure out what this should do. Fingers crossed that is a bulbsocket! Anyone know what this is??
He never had to take the stand in the first >place. He didn’t even have to be in the courtroom.
I thought he did have to take the stand, but didn’t have to be there for the rest of the trial. AFAIK he’s compelled to testify (or take the fifth, but he and the kids have to do one or the other).

Oof. I wonder how that will work in the case of infrastructure like roads and bridges–long term tolls? At some point it has to eat away at whatever good will the Chinese were trying to buy.
I’m an old man, and do 5k a few times a week for context. Started doing a battery of dynamic stretches a few months back and I really love it. Gets me warm and adequately stretched, and I haven’t pulled anything since I started this instead of traditional stretching. Check out www.runnersworld.com/…/dynamic-warmup-stretches/
