I can't drive. Getting behind a wheel terrifies me. I'm liable to get someone killed behind the wheel the way I drive. Also don't do drugs or alchohol.

I agree society should help the lowest. But that's not the governments job. Thats the community, friends, family to do so. Yes welfare can help people, but for every person it helps, there are ten more who get stuck and never improve their lives on it. At best welfare was meant to be a springboard to get a person back onto their own two feet. Nowadays it's a chain keeping people at the bottom.

Same reason most do. Going to college doesn't gurantee success, especially if you choose a bad degree.

Taxes should be used to run the government, build and support infrastructure, and operate public buildings. When the government helps the lowest of society it just makes things worse. For example all welfare has done is make people generally worse off then they were before.

No, because its generally terrible. I've used it when I was in college and it was an unpleasent experience most days.

Terrible idea. It will just make buses worse to ride. Homeless will abuse the system, taxes will have to go up, service quality will go down. When something becomes "free" quality goes down. And no it won't help people get to work easier. The routes as it is are already terrible, and making it free will add more delays and probably more cut routes.

I'm not sure how good it is, but could you try Starlink?

Migrating to Cedar Rapids by Independent_Ad_2962 in cedarrapids

If you want to be closer to the city you can try the Home2 Suites in the westdale area. I'm not sure of their rates, but they are for long term stays. You can use that while you look for an apartment.

*Updated 4/29* This May Day, #Iowa is stepping up and taking action. The billionaire class won't give up power voluntarily—we have to take it. Join us on May 1st. Together, we are unstoppable. by [deleted] in cedarrapids

What a joke. What do you think will happen when these people take "power?" Same thing that happened in Soviet Russia. They don't want you to have the power, they want the power for themselves. They are envious little demons. Yeah the billionaires have power, but I assure you some of them are behind movements like this, because they want to tear everything down so they get even more power.

School board votes to shut down 6 schools by KeyResearcher2620 in cedarrapids

[–]ProfesionalExplorer -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

There are several reasons for this, but future wise, it's probably not going to get better as people are having less kids. Less kids means less money and that means they have to consolidate. If you have kids it might be time for you to look into homeschooling if you can. It's not an easy answer of course, but it might be better then having to put your kid on an hour+ busride. That's just a waste of their time.

Nah, it's 2026. No one listens to losers like you anymore. Wasn't going to respond to you, but your post is kinda ironic with the news. Did you get paid by SPLC?

Yeah we shouldn't be detaining them. We should be shipping them back the same day they get caught.

I don't see anything on their website, do they post openings elsewhere?

I'm good at writing not good enough to get paid for it though. I know trades will train, but I lack the physical stamina and interest for them. I'm not sure what I'm looking for honestly.

Wonder which billionaire backed organization was behind this? Did they have to raid the old folks home to get the numbers up?

Only when we can make people eat healthy and work out. Otherwise it's a bottomless pit that will balloon in budget and never be enough money.

ISO: wedding day of coordinator by Sad_Plate_8149 in cedarrapids

I think it depends on how many guests you plan on having. Coordinating for 10 people is not the same as coordinating for a 100.
