DaemonFCThe local (city) police and the county Sheriff's department are merging some of their operations to save money.Jul 15 16:24
DaemonFCThey said that they hit the caps on all of the taxes that they were allowed to take, and revenue was still declining, because people are leaving and the ones who are left have less money to tax.Jul 15 16:25
DaemonFCHigh tax rates and bad jobs typically cause everyone who can leave to leave.Jul 15 16:25

DaemonFCI'm not going to bad mouth Social Security, even if people over 65 do have a propensity to bite the hand that is feeding them.Jul 15 16:42
DaemonFCThey worked for it, and they earned it. The fact that they're still getting it each month means that they have Democrats to thank for that (some Democrats anyway, certainly not the DINOs like Obama who have mastered the art of talking like a liberal and acting like a moderate Republican).Jul 15 16:42
DaemonFCThe Republicans are going to shut down Social Security if they ever win all the marbles again. That fact should horrify anyone who has that as their main/only income. We're talking about the psychopaths in Congress that want to shut down food stamps but keep the $37,000-per day subsidies for millionaires who happen to own a farm. Jul 15 16:42

DaemonFCWalmart puts potential employees through this crap.Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCIt's actually funny. Do they *expect* that anyone is going to answer questions asking them if they like to break the law, use drugs, and steal from their employer in the affirmative?Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCGawker: "Getting a job selling Slurpees is a more invasive process than becoming a Congressman."Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCYeah. It's not about whether or not most people use drugs, or if those drugs have any particular impact on their reliability as an employee. It's mostly just about having control and keeping people in line by putting them through the indignity of making them pee in cups for you. If you can make them drop their pants and pee in a cup, you can dehumanize them in just about any way. Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCMost companies don't actually drug test people after they're initially hired unless they want to get out of paying for a workplace accident. That includes Walmart.Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCDrug tests cost them about $30-40. Why do it unless it's an excuse out of paying their medical bill when a truck comes in where the warehouse improperly stacked a pallet, which falls over on them and causes $12,000 worth of medical bills?Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCI've seen that sort of thing happen so many times.....Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCOf course, the drug test usually comes back clean, which pisses Walmart off even worse. Now it has to pay the medical bills and put the employee on light duty!Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCManagers basically cross their fingers and hope the guy was smoking pot three weeks ago so they can just abandon them and hire someone else.Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFCMost workplace accidents have nothing to do with drugs. It has more to do with the corners the company itself was cutting to save time and money. Jul 15 18:11
DaemonFC ZOMG PINK PONIES says:Jul 15 18:14
DaemonFCWell, depression is a major problem in the United States for the same reason it was in Soviet Russia.Jul 15 18:14
DaemonFCYou have a better chance of becoming a millionaire through the state lottery than by working hard, playing by the rules, and trying to earn your way there. It's the sign of a hugely corrupt system and society. Jul 15 18:14

schestowitz"...and these are precisely the reasons I left Facebook and Google. I even offered suggested features like the ability to edit one's own posts or (as you mention) deleting posts. Suffice to say, the switch-over has seen me effectively locked-out of my own account and away from my data. Sadly, I was one of those that did not provide an email address. Suffice to say, I feel I've been "had"."Jul 16 22:34

DaemonFC:)Jul 16 23:26
DaemonFCThe ones where numbers are called have a worse return than the scratch offs...Jul 16 23:31
DaemonFCThe scratch offs average a payout of about 55-70 cents on every dollar, but the Powerball and Mega Millions only pay out about 10-20 cents on the dollar.Jul 16 23:32
DaemonFCThat's worse than going to a casino.Jul 16 23:32
DaemonFCAccording to the Indiana Gaming Commission, the slot machines at Hoosier Park pay out 91.5 cents on the dollar.Jul 16 23:33

DaemonFCIf I was going to gamble some money, I think I'd at least pick the game with the highest guaranteed payout.Jul 16 23:57
DaemonFCI've considered taking a day trip to a casino, with a small amount of money to gamble, just for my own amusement.Jul 16 23:57
DaemonFCSay $50, and when it's gone, it's gone. That would actually last a long time at the payout ratio of the slot machines.Jul 16 23:58
