The North should include parts of Florida, part of the year. I’m thinking SE and SW Florida coastal towns, like Boca Raton, Miami, and Naples.

Can you have a series of parallel moving sidewalks? Why, yes, you can!

It takes forever to count up to 1,000,000 for no reason. Then, no flights are displayed between two major airports. It’s a broken site.

Right. This isn’t a change to help the auto industry. It’s just the Orange Asshole trying to undo anything good that Obama did (“Your favorite President!”).

States can often have standards that are more strict than the federal standard, not less. To use your analogy, it would be like Alabama and Texas requiring firearms to carry fewer rounds of ammo. ROFL, but maybe a good idea.

By the “fine” for the ACA I assume you’re referring to the tax penalty if you don’t buy insurance? By reducing the portion of healthy people in the insurance pool, the cost of insurance will rise for the remainder; it simply has to. That’s won’t earn him any votes. Maybe his allowing junk insurance at low rates might,…

I hope there isn’t all that much sympathy for Melania. A beautiful young model marries an old, fat, rich man with a long history of cheating on his wives. It was just money for sex.

Agree. He should have kept the original wheels, they were very in-style for a futuristic 1980's Godzilla movie. And white??? The best color for the MR-2 was red, followed by black, and maybe that odd plasticy blue.

I’m not sure who in the middle class is in the 35% bracket. It’s for people with taxable income over $400,000.

Don’t be such an obvious idiot.

The Republican party was never moral nor the majority. The “Moral Majority” was never moral nor the majority. It was just a marketing gambit to say, “we’re better than other folks because we’re christians.” It was a play for power for the party and the faux-Christian evangelicals. They are terrible human beings who…

“most plane accidents occur during takeoff or landing”

My ‘86 MR-2 had a perfect ashtray/little trash can right in front of the stick. You could just pick it up and dump it, easy-peasy. I’ve missed it in all my newer cars.

Yup! My first experience driving downtown Atlanta was like that. I was moving along in white-knuckle traffic at the speed limit, or so I thought. Looked down at the speedometer and saw I doing 85 in the 55 zone. Had no clue, because everyone was going fast.

Still true when I lived in Atlanta around 1980. I-85, eight lanes of high-speed madness through downtown. Many entrances were stop signs with no acceleration lanes. Drivers of crappy old VWs could catch a break, but if you drove a fast car you had to punch it or die.

Oh, they are that dumb. They just couldn’t agree whether to replace the ACA with something much worse, or something much, much worse.

His statement was 97% true (I wish everything I stated was that accurate). Only 3% of families had to change, usually because their prior insurance was substandard (that is, really crappy plans didn’t qualify any more). In any case, the need to change doctors was driven by the insurance plan changes, not by the ACA.

Actually, the ACA has done quite well in states that tried to make it work. In Republican states, where they have tried to impede it as much as possible, it has done less well. Even so, as of this year every county in the entire U.S. has at least one insurance provider available.

“Anybody that don’t stand up for that ought to be out of the country. Period,” Petty said. “If they don’t appreciate where they’re at … what got them where they’re at? The United States.”
