Re: Gun owning households, on the rise

Seems the media is abandoning their ongoing narrative that the majority of guns are owned by a few Americans with large "arsenals".

Re: Railroad worker strike incoming - shortages about to get critical

To be expected the railroad unions are pissed that the September agreement is getting forced on them by Congress and Biden. The second bill passed by the House to impose 7 days of paid sick leave for railroad workers may have had a better chance of passing the Senate had it been only the typical 40 ...

Re: Railroad worker strike incoming - shortages about to get critical

Just an update, the September deal is dead in the water. Without an agreement, railroad workers can go on strike after Dec 9th:

Re: Ok,...which one of you guys was this?

So they had built this complex bunker and elevator system and had stashed "$240,000 in cash" along with "gold and silver valued at $700,000", but they couldn't figure out how to "launder" a small amount of that cash through their business to pay the electric bill as to ...

Re: Railroad worker strike incoming - shortages about to get critical

Seems the railroad companies are rejecting their maintenance workers' demands for more paid sick time. At least for the moment there appears to be a line drawn neither will cross: https://apnews.com/article/government-and-politics-business-strikes-940da8fc519f8c526ca614e201d01216 Most of mainstream ...

Re: Railroad worker strike incoming - shortages about to get critical

The White House-brokered agreement to avert a railroad strike has the potential to fall apart, threatening widespread economic disruption right before the midterm elections. Good call on the deal falling apart: https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2022/10/11/rail-strike-2022-railroad-workers-update...

Re: Railroad worker strike incoming - shortages about to get critical

"If the president declines to intercede in the railroad labor negotiations by appointing a Presidential Emergency Board (PEB) before 12:01 a.m. EDT on Monday (7/18), the railroads and unions could opt for operational shutdowns or strikes, respectively." https://www.reuters.com/world/us/pre...

Re: US Supreme Court - New Executive vs Legislative case today - West Virginia v. EPA (20-1530)

All of these alphabet agencies ultimately report to the POTUS through his cabinet. In regard to that, it should be noted that this SCOTUS ruling has significantly limited the power of an executive order by the POTUS. Now that is a ruling the entire country should be celebrating.

Re: House passes anti gun bills 6/8/22

So Mitt Romney is an anti-gun POS? Wow! What a surprise. He proved that back when ran for MA Senator against Kennady by endorsing Clinton's AWB. He proved that again as MA governor by signing their AWB thereby making it permanent. Why isn't this RINO in a well deserved political grave? Because Fox N...

They also sell 12 oz cans of Clover Valley roast beef with gravy. Has more gravy than I would like but definitely m...

Re: Shipping Backlog

What are the store shelves looking like in your neck of the woods? Not much of a change in NW AZ There are some bare spots where some specific product is sold out but the shelves in the Casa Grande grocery store are still mostly stocked. Certainly nothing like the bare shelves we saw last year...so...
