Reply to Income based rent? by morgeous4526
I don’t really get the question. Are you looking for a house that you tell the landlord how much money you make and they use that to decide your rent?

Reply to University of Maine online. Any good' by Ehud_Muras
Do you want to learn? If so online colleges are a joke, the information is recycled and often out of date.
Are you looking to get your masters and don’t want to work that hard? Online school is the way to go! At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter where the degree comes from, your resume will still say you have a MS

Reply to Walmart's customer demographics are changing rapidly. 28% of households earing $150k+ are Walmart+ members, up from 13% last year. by nassan
Depending on where in the US you live, 150k isn’t a lot for a family. Amazon and Walmart are basically the same at this point. Everyone knows that Walmart is a disaster for their community, but if you need something at 2 am, Walmart is there to supply it. They (Walmart, Amazon, target, etc) have also put everyone else out of business so a large part of the country has no choice but to shop there.
I grew up poor, but am doing pretty well now. I don’t buy fresh produce at Walmart, but if I need a box fan at 3 am, I know where to go.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Kusterand and Pappas vote to keep troops in Syria despite no authorization to have them there. Why? by klem18
What did the republicans do? Math isn’t my strongest skill, but I can read. It looks like only 47 of them had the balls to stand up to their party. So maybe instead of trying to make this a democrats bad scenario, you should look at the money that the no votes on both side got to vote that way.

Train cars carrying dangerous materials are marked with plaques that have a number that you can google to tell you what’s inside them, as well as it’s hazardous properties. The remainder of non hazardous material cars are typically not marked. No different than trains in every other state. Not only does the general public not need to know what’s in the overwhelming majority of train cars, but disclosing the routes, times, and contents of hazardous material cars would make them a prime target for people with less than noble intents.

Every bartender I’ve ever worked with who has taken a “bartending class” is no better at making drinks than someone who learned behind the bar.

Look at aroostook county in maine. They’re so afraid of “the others” that they allow town after town to die instead of attempting to bring in any type of new blood.

That is the dumbest opinion you can have. When rural New England towns die, this is the mentality that will have killed them. I hope you enjoy your town with nothing new opening, but for the rest of us, new is good.

They have warming shelters in pretty much every city. Fun fact, it gets cold in other places too.

Also, the public works garage will likely be operational during the work day. It would probably be dangerous to have people trying to keep warm inside while trucks are pulling in and out all day.

The one about no testing being done? The protester likely would have no way to know what, if any testing has taken place.
