    @jon-nyc Pretty deep hole Trump dug himself. Don't see him crawling anytime soon either. Greene is no Trump character, not even close. Let her dig, in fact, supply her the shovel.

    Wonder how it would have compared to the Hawker Typhoon and Tempest that the British had already brought into service during the war. They were powered by the powerful Napier Sabre engine which made them the fastest low level tactical fighters in the war.

    We have one just about like that in our back yard as of today. There are small prints in the snow heading away from the birdfeeders, looks like maybe a squirrel. Then there's a spot on the snow where it appears a scuffle occurred. The small tracks end there. Going off in a slight angle is a deep divet in the snow, more scuffle signs, a space, and a second deep divet with scuffle signs. It would have been quite interesting to see what happened.

    Later today, a small hawk was sitting on the birdfeeder poles, looking for lunch. Looks like our yard is the new hawk feeding station.

    Of course he would be unrecognizable. With his head gear on and face paint, it would be difficult to see who he was. LOL

    Is it just selection bias based on what I see here or did Will literally resume writing right-leaning pieces after Trump was gone? Was Trump so toxic to his reputation that he couldn't associate himself at all with him? Just attack personally with every piece, ideology secondary?

    But when I went to Lowes yesterday I wore it. This makes me a gutless sheep.

    No it doesn't, just makes you smart and understanding of society as a whole. 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨

    It is certainly the efficient solution. I'd rather wear a mask than deal with social shaming, verbally or otherwise. It's also why I wear clothes, and deoderant. (just kidding about the deodorant, as if I'd wear that.)

    I didn't think it was possible for Americans to make their election cycles last longer than the four long, miserable years they used to go on for.

    Somehow, you've found a way.

    Governments also do this with overseas postings. Depending on where you are assigned, you will get an adjustment.

    I agree with @LuFins-Dad , in theory, it can be a good idea to have different minimum wages.

    Of course, then you would have people on the border line complaining that they cannot hire anybody, because they will just go across the minimum wage "border" and get a job that pays more.

    Not sure how it would be set up, but in theory, I think it is a good idea.
