Dews in the 30s Thursday?

It’s why he quit the board. No heat and no drought, he gone.

Are you still talking about this? Go out and enjoy your life man.

New slogan for NH?… “Don’t be so afraid to die that you don’t live.”

It’s getting so bad with supply chain that HD bought their own container ship: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2021/06/13/home-depot-contracted-its-own-container-ship-to-avoid-shipping-delays.html

Yea. It’s nice to get the 4 seasons. If only we can get winter to behave like one…we can achieve the weenie slam.

Some years our springs are short though. This year, not the case.

It’s nice to have a long spring. Summer waits until July.

Congrats bud. Family comes first so we wish you the best out there as you start a new chapter.

Less than 50% of American adults trust the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and many believe most users abuse it. The latest welfare fraud statistics, however, show that the payment accuracy of SNAP is over 92%, while the food stamp trafficking rate in the past few years has been only 1-1.5%. These figures show that the US authorities have found efficient solutions to food stamp fraud. https://balancingeverything.com/welfare-fraud-statistics/

We’re talking about welfare not safety. Easy for the agendas to point to the inner city poor areas but they always neglect to see the rural whites sucking from the govt teets, and in greater numbers.

More facts some refuse to accept since it doesn’t fit their agenda: https://www.thoughtco.com/who-really-receives-welfare-4126592 https://fortunly.com/statistics/welfare-statistics/#gref

Sure. Blame the inner city….Nobody talks about this though: https://www.harvestpublicmedia.org/post/rural-americans-are-now-largest-slice-federal-food-aid-recipients FRAC analyzed the USDA data and found that nationally, 16 percent of households in ruralareas use SNAP versus 13 percent in urbanareas. The population of older people is larger in rural areas, which Vollinger said is driving the increase.

May coc June coc.

The next mayor has a tall task but the importance of who the city selects will be felt for decades. The city practically has the chance to start over, they have to get it right. If they fail to curb the inequality again and let the big money real estate investors dictate the city’s path….it’s doomed.

NYC brings back so many great memories from the 90s into early 2000s, great place. Sure it has issues and the pandemic exposed it but it will come back better. Can’t wait to take the fam there once it is alive again. There is nothing like it.

You claimed from that pic they are junkies. I merely stated differently. The topic changed away from capitalism though, once you wrongfully made those assumptions. ‘anti-capitalism’ states have homeless problems so the issue isn’t a capitlaism vs socialist debate and I think the pic was just a funny meme that takes on a life of it’s own. In fact, there are plenty of European countries with better social programs than the US with a higher homeless rate, like Sweden for example.

73/42 in Southbury CT USA. A definite top 10er. Full COC.

Good for you. Not everyone is the same. Take your own beliefs of that particular situation out of it and look at it with some compassion. Up to 45% are said to suffer from mental health issues, and roughly 11% of the 630k+ homeless are veterans. It’s not all junkies and/or people who are just aren’t that motivated to be better, as you claim.
-
You’d be surprised how much of it is mental health first and foremost, and, not just being an addict. But hey, keep making assumptions.
-
Yea. They don’t understand the downside of humid heat yet. All they think about June to August is pool. When I was a kid it was more enjoyable. When you’re grown and have more responsibilities, it fades. Give them some yard work to do during the next heatwave and let’s see their reactions then lol.

We love visiting big cities. I’ve been to so many of them, easily over 50, and not only in the states but abroad too….Europe, Central America.
-
Anyone who thinks the free market will solve all is stubbornly obtuse just as much as those who think a welfare stare would. The truth is somewhere in the middle. The problem is we have oligarch capitalism and abused social safety nets. We’ve been going in the wrong direction with both.
