I've NEVER been asked for an ID at a hotel domestically.

I insert an ID into the kiosk to get my hotel key (card) to check in and out of various hotels

Do you check in on the spot? As in not book before? Only did that once in Alabama and no ID required even then. I could see casino hotels because of the gambling, which I think is true. There's no other need domestically though. Although I guess my wife books since she travels more for work and gets points. They won't let me check in unless she's there. Although I could identify as a woman in todays world.

I'm usually doing the mans work getting the baggage cart and loading it to the room. So maybe I'm wrong. I've stayed the night in Spokane at hotels solo at least 3 times though before Southwest got gates at the airport in Bozeman and never have been asked. Just have the paper print out. Usually on solo trips I'm staying at buddies houses.

All they ever want is a working CC when I check in. I have 15 roughly with no balance except one that gets paid off monthly. That's why I bring paper confirmation since we book through 3rd parties and not direct 90% of the time besides Hilton brands.

Seems like alot of dumb and misguided hatred on "insurance" companies by some on the Right in the rage-fest this week.

As if the health insurance industry's whopping 5% profit margin is the reason why US healthcare is so expensive and inaccessible to some? Anyone think the government could manage all payments, coverages, negotiations (and yes - rationing) between healthcare providers and recipients more efficiently and equitably than private insurance does at $0.05 on the dollar?

The major costs of our healthcare is the cost of doctors, nurses, hospitals, facilities, drugs and hospital administrators navigating through all the regulatory hoops government has thrown at this heavily regulated industry.

Are Leftists going to start gunning down high paid doctors, nurses and drug CEO's next?

OMFG I did almost spit out my drink.

1. Every leftwing group is trying to claim this guy
2. Phenotype checks out.

Just sounds like slander to me.

Radar is a Left LGBTQ mag, so "We're taking credit, he's our guy. The hero is from our group." struck me. But yeah, I see how it could be slander.

Homos love projecting their lifestyles on fantasy objects, even non-homos.

I'm beginning to think this whole assassination was another head fake. The executive was likely exfiltrated. He may be under some kind of protection or projected alias or he may be killed covertly later. He is another man who knows too much. The company might be an intriguing intersection of politicians and organized crime.
