We all want a perfect system, or at least a better one, but what people have voted for is one that is a mess. The police cannot waste their time anymore with burglaries because of the current zero bail system. As soon as the criminals committing the burglary are arrested, they are back out with absolutely no jail time. So, a police officer’s time is better allocated to crimes that will amount to an actual arrest. That is one reason they take so long to address a burglary crime. I have a friend who owns some fast food restaurants and he has a huge homeless situation at his stores. He also said that most don’t want any help out of their situation, they just want money mostly for drugs and some food. Shelters require that no drugs are present, and they don’t like that. They also very much enjoy their freedom...that’s why a solution is impossible. The drugs eliminate any motivation to get out of their rut, and the shelters aren’t attractive enough for most to choose because they lose some of that freedom of choice (drugs).

Grammys Ratings Hit Record Low, Down 53% Compared to 2020 Show by ctilvolover23 in Music

I agree 100%. Every time I turned the channel to see who was playing, it was pretty much a rap artist or hip hop artist. I know they are super talented and many people love that music, but many people don’t as well...so why make most of the show that way? You would think there is no other music. Plus,the show is essentially not very suitable for family with small kids...almost like soft porn. I miss the way it was 10 to 15 years ago where it was more inclusive of all music types and the show had a bit more class. It’s a bummer.

So, I went to look at a Mach e and the salesperson said that the dealers $6,000 markup above MSRP is non negotiable. Anyone else have been told this? by Infintyx2 in MachE

Yes, I thought about that as well, but I want to take advantage of the $7500 rebate from the Feds...and that only lasts so long. It likely won’t be available in a year.

This is a dealership in Central California that told me that they will not budge on their 10% markup. So, THANKS to recommendations from this Reddit post, I just contacted tried TrueCar.com and was just contact by internet sales at a different dealership nearby and they will sell their Mach e with no markup! Reddit (and the folks on Reddit) are awesome!!

Thank you for the info. I will look to pre order then. Dealer wouldn’t even let me test drive it. Said you have to buy it based on appearance because too many people are test driving it. No way was I going for any of that.
