While you’re off, if you like classic literature, I can recommend Henry David Thoreau’s “Walden” to get more in touch with yourself, nature, and the world around you.

I hope I’ve bought my last gasoline car.

Unfortunately, the rest of the bunch aren’t much better and in some instances even worse.

As California goes, so goes the nation. Conservatives don’t like this.

If it wasn’t for the high cost of living, I’d move to California as well. Still hope I’ll make it there some day.

And only 3 weeks in.

Over the past 30 years, technology has taken extensive leaps forward. Except for printers and printer drivers. Still stuck in 1990.

Wonder how this will work in an electrified world. Especially in NJ.

It’s truly insane.

And it’s mind boggling to me that there are so many great solutions that have been in use for decades in other developed countries, but the US refuses to take any cues, because that’s “socialism” or whatever. It’s tiresome.

Doesn’t it just make gas more expensive?

Also, how about electric vehicle charging? Do these attendants have to plug the car in for you? Just a matter of time before gasoline cars are obsolete.

And some people will go to extraordinary lengths to defend them.

The US, like most other developed countries, needs a constant influx of workers because the population is getting older on average. Boomers will soon be completely out of the labor market, and the smaller, younger generations will not be able to sustain the economy and society without extra hands.

In most states there’s already an additional tax for not living in the home in the form of not receiving the homestead exemption.

Expanding the homestead exemption could be part of the solution.

This is called “golden handcuffs” among real estate researchers.

This is part of the GOP strategy.

Senator Josh Hawley from Missouri has openly acknowledged that the GOP strategy is to make it so miserable for Democrats in red and purple states that they will move to blue states. That would, in turn, cement Republican power in the White House, Senate and thereby the Supreme Court.

Sounds like Google is trying to reinstate company scrip.

Not the worst place to be stuck.
