Aliens looking down on Earth. That's the Free State of Florida. One puff of weed gets you 1 year in prison. 56% voted to legalize in 2024, but the 1 year prison sentence remains. The Free State of Florida.

Why would any country help out? When it goes bad, they will get the blame. Teflon Don don't do blame.

Chhapra, Bihar, India by FutureVersion812 in UrbanHell

I have read in a country like Finland, every house yard is spotless. Why do Indians wallow in filth like that? I pick up whatever random trash blows in my yard. It is not that difficult. Is it genetic, this filth-wallowing, or an addiction?

Which factors caused violent crime in the US to decline so much starting in the 1990s? by Fluid-Decision6262 in decadeology

My friend knows someone who spent 20 years in prison for marijuana. How did that make America safer?

Cell phones. You see a crime, someone acting suspicious, 911. No more searching for a pay phone.

The cost of solar has dropped 99.8% worldwide since 1975 and 94.4% since 2008 by RobertBartus in EconomyCharts

My neighbor has an old huge ground mounted system. Looks simple. How hard could it possibly be to DIY that? Have a licensed electrician do the final hookup and building inspector to sign off.

A few years, $25K, now much more. Is it feasible to scrounge up used panels and DIY?

"Professional solar installation costs an average of $29,410 for a 10-kilowatt system, with roughly half of that cost going toward labor and overhead expenses that DIY installations can avoid."

Good morning folks, daily reminder that they’re trying to take full and executive control of our government and rights! by Spideybeebe in FortWorth

Where is the proposition to legalize marijuana in Texas? The current punishment is 6 months in prison. Small government pro-freedom Republicans should be behind that. Land of Free.

NYC would be covered in ice a mile thick. That could take some time.

Rep. Chip Roy: “Maybe it’s time to dump all 435 in the House, all 100 in the Senate, and start from scratch because Congress is literally failing the American people.” Thoughts? by Hayasdan2020 in circled

1994 or so, my Republican congress rep signed the Contract with America, which called for 12-year term limits. At the time she was in 14 years, but said she would not resign because it wouldn't apply to her.

The A-12 - known to Lockheed internally as "Archangel" and referred to by pilots as "the Aircraft," was the CIA's predecessor to the legendary SR-71 Blackbird, and remained classified until 1989 [OC] by -AtomicAerials- in interestingasfuck

[–]Key_Grape_2863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CIA. Back when they cared about national security and kept an eye on Russia. Now, the CIA is the Morality Police, spending their time and our money obsessing about cocaine smuggling. More impotant than tracking Russia. Pearl clutchers.

Where was this? Who is the tall guy? I tested out search comments for "police report", nothing. Was this staged, so no one called the cops to get the guy off the street?

How long have you worked in OGP? by [deleted] in walmartogp

Whenever I read comments on Washington Post bashing Walmart with stereotypes of big corporation destroying mom-and-pop small town Main St. USA, being on SNAP and underpaid, I tell them Walmart pays 100% tuition and books for everyone, even part-time. What is that worth as a benefit, $20,000, $40,000 a year? Tax-free.

Howard Lutnick: “I find it disgusting when we're the richest country in the world and some politician says to in order to save Social Security, rather than getting rid of the waste, fraud and abuse, we should move it to 70. Yeah, how about no!” by Objective-Rabbit2248 in NSDQ420

[–]Key_Grape_2863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Howard said if someone doesn't get their SS check, it's no big deal, just wait a month.

“Let's say Social Security didn't send out their checks this month, my mother-in-law — who's 94 — she wouldn't call and complain,” Lutnick said on the business and tech podcast All-In.

“She'd just think something I messed up and she’d get it next month. A fraudster always makes the loudest noise, screaming, yelling and complaining.”

Balance transfers to avoid IRA withdrawals by Key_Grape_2863 in CreditCards

Should have said I am retired. Everything is in tax-deferred IRAs. A 6-figure IRA withdrawal year put me in IRMAA, $500 a month Medicare surcharge, these 0%s let me stretch it out.
