or you lose your democracy
Tenured Teachers, Gov't Employees, Academia Admins, etc are all the last to be fired - and that very seldom - and almost never get a pay cut for an economic downturn, they have no Skin In The Game.
Even in the Great Recession, the worst thing that occurred to 98% of these group members was a 2nd year teacher didn't get offered tenure, or there was a 2 yea salary freeze, which was eventually followed up with a huge wage increase that made up the difference later.
Can't budget for $100 in sales tax revenue and only get $20 for very long without massive consequences. No sales tax states are going to have a much better time with this. I hope it makes states rethink the whole idea or maybe decide to live within their means if I can try to find the silver lining in this.
The States and especially Fed Gov will borrow and print like crazy, I think.
Patrick saysThe truth is that DEMOCRACY WORKED when we elected Trump.It's a Classic: Y'all sold the cow to the traveling con man for a bag of magic beans and are having trouble facing that simple truth.
Trump has a life history that for personality cult / angry mob reasons, doesn't faze a lot of you here.
You know Fox Fairytales is media right? The largest media. The one that came out 24/7 coast to coast at no charge to all cable providers. Hmmm. Why did they do that? How could they afford that? Why do they trip all over themselves to make Trump's ineptitude look good?
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm.
Something's going on here.
If we had a liberal in WH now, left will be discussing which race, sex, mental disorder should get more help instead of solving any problems.
The DOJ is referring to Trump as a felon since Cohen started admitting Trump's role in those payoffs.
Just saw 0%, 84 month financing on TV I think for Buick? WTF? If you're responsible and can pay extra a month to pay it down quicker that's fucking nuts.
The coronavirus crisis has revealed what real power lies in material production, and how evanescent post-industrial wealth like America’s can be. Opponents of President Trump’s tariffs celebrated an American economy that increasingly moved toward financial services, on the upper end, and restaurant and hospitality work, on the lower end. Financial services, restaurants, and hotels are not what the world needs most in the midst of a pandemic. Nor are educrats and hospital administrators and health-insurance executives more useful than manufacturing workers and managers who can produce medicines and medical equipment.
Perhaps, some distant day in the future, American leftists may look back upon the Trump presidency and suspect their unbridled, infantile rage caused them to miss out on some joy and hearty laughter, but that may be a bit optimistic.
President as a total embarrassment in part becasue of his infantile behavior.
"shithole countries ?"

Why pay it down quicker at 0%? What's the point?
I wonder why anyone falls for this, except to justify buying a car they cannot really afford. The so called "0%" is build into the price of the car. Offer to pay cash at the end of the negotiations and you will be able to get a better price.
FortWayneIndiana saysDemocrats are assholes!
Free speech doesn't restrict stupidity. Get the shit right!

Breaking! Even Communists aren't immune to the new coughing virus.
