If Lansing had no employees beside truly essential employees like State Police and other security related entities,would anyone care or notice? I think state governments should meet only twice year and paid considerably much less.

On another note, I should repeat a disclaimer I made on a prior thread...

I believe that it is absolutely untrue that she might have raised the campaign funds for her first political campaign by making several porn films...

I also believe that Joe Biden might be a closet Mensa member...

No pay? No benefits? No pensions?

Story says laying off 2,900 workers to save $5 million. That's a paltry $1,724 per worker, so no, not even close...

TWO WEEKS?? Wow, that’s rough. Tough to get by that long without a paycheck.

“Jugs”?

Ears? Or other bits?

“Twice year”??

Did you mean “every other year for six months”? That is the right amount of time to minimize mischief.

Think back three months ago—the virus was deemed “zero threat” to anyone except a few Chinese in Wuhan.

Now fast forward three months—who knows what the landscape will look like.

The election will be more than three months after that—these days that might as well be the next century!

Poll numbers today are about as relevant to the November election as counting the number of angels of the head of pins.

Thank you very much for giving me something to have hope. I am getting increasingly depressed from intense anger against the leftists. I need to hold onto something along with prayer and faith in God.
