N.J. small businesses struggled to pay November rent, study says
Small businesses in New Jersey struggled to pay their November rent at a higher rate than businesses across the country, according to a new study.
And it’s even worse for minority-owned businesses.
Sixty-seven percent of minority-owned businesses surveyed in the state couldn’t afford to pay their full November rent. That compares to 44% of minority-owned businesses nationwide, said the November Rent Poll by Alignable, an online network of small business owners with more than 5 million members.
The survey questions showed New Jersey businesses — in many categories — are faring worse than the national average:
- 35% of New Jersey business couldn’t pay their full rent in November compared to 32% nationally
- 37% of women-owned businesses in the state couldn’t pay their full rent compared to 35% nationally
When it comes to cash reserves, small businesses in New Jersey are also doing hurting more, the study said.
In New Jersey, 42% of small businesses reported that their cash reserves will run out by the end of the year. That number compares to 22% nationally.
The survey also found 16% of New Jersey small business owners are already out of cash reserves. Nationally, it’s 12%.

Dolly Parton deserves more credit for the Moderna vaccine than Trump does…
https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/17/entertainment/dolly-parton-covid-moderna-vaccine-trnd/index.html
In April, less than a month after Covid-19 was officially declared a pandemic, Dolly Parton donated $1 million to coronavirus research at Vanderbilt University.
More than seven months later, it’s been revealed that the legendary performer’s donation helped fund Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine, which this week became the second coronavirus vaccine with a stunningly high success rate.
That is funny Grim.
Does Dollywood need a bailout?
Modern a got billions from Warp Speed, Dolly’s donation is nice
But it was not for corona virus development they just did a trial there.

The MTA is looking for a 36 percent increase in fares because of the decline in ridership due to Covid. Another reason not to go back to the office.

Lucira COVID-19 All-in-One Test Kit
https://www.lucirahealth.com/
Interesting seems this Lucira molecular test is much more accurate than the exiting antigen tests.
Again however the powers that be added more hoops to jump through just more garbage added to the pile of testing issues we already have in this country.
You won’t be able to pick one up at CVS just yet, seems the FDA approval does not cut Doctors our Physicians Assistants out of the loop they require you to do a tele-health screening and get a prescription for the test kit.
“By the second quarter of 2021, Lucira Health plans to amend its EUA or file a new EUA so people who think they’re infected with COVID-19 can communicate with a medical professional online through a dedicated website to arrange a prescription and overnight delivery of the test kit, if approved. Follow-up monitoring will be available for public health reporting so people can get additional guidance and information if needed.”

Andrew Cuomo is giving himself a $25,000 per year raise. This, in spite of the fact that NYC is in intensive care. This, in spite of the fact that he sent thousands to the senior home death camps. This, in spite of the fact that Trump never took a salary as president. Remember Andrew, you said you want your own independent study on the vaccine so, they’ll be no vaccine shipments to your state.

Every day I watch NJ Transit rail run 8 nearly empty double deckers train sets with about ten to twenty people at most, on the entire train. NJ Transit claims their rail ridership is at 20% pre-Covid levels, but that includes the light rail numbers which were hardly impacted by Covid. It appears that poorer people don’t get to work from home and buses and light rail are way more prevalent in poorer urban neighborhoods. At mid day, there are a total of three cars on average parked at Walnut Street Station. This is a huge lot that used to have a 6 or 7 year waiting list for the opportunity to pay NJ transit $900 a year to park there to ride their decrepit rail line. These trains are all running truly empty. A single bus could easily handle the entire ridership on the line.
So why are we paying for staffing, unnecessary and expensive wear-and-tear on nearly completely empty train sets. These sets are running the same schedule they ran pre-covid too. Plus, I’m sure you are all aware that NJ Transit couldn’t even come close to making ends meet when they were at overcapacity. How dumb are we to put up with this? Gotta get outta this charity for the public worker state.
In Glen Ridge, they just terminated one of the most important persons in our school system. The ten-year director of aftercare. This person helped everyone with their homework, kept things running like clockwork, ran a super tight ship security-wise, but was not in the union and was probably the lowest paid supervisor in the district. Meanwhile, gym teachers, lunch ladies, probably a solid ten percent of the unionized staff will be paid in full to do nothing for a year.
Only the best and the brightest in our government.
Hold:It depends, it could be. I had a friend who earned significantly more than his ex wife, this is going back sometime, but basically he has to pay her 15k a year until he retires. In other instances if the spouse has no skills say married right out of high school and husband made all the money and divorce after long term marriage than yes life time alimony could be ordered by court. I had no idea until my friend was going through an NJ divorce years ago.
President Trump fired Christopher Krebs, the well-regarded director of the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), via tweet on Tuesday, citing Krebs’ public assurances that the 2020 election was historically secure and free of fraud or serious error.
Krebs was the rare Trump administration official almost universally regarded as competent, apolitical, and effective in a crucial area that needed such leadership. And he apparently found a way to make sure his agency continued without too much political inference in the event he was fired. “Late Tuesday,” The Washington Post said, “acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf called Krebs’ deputy, Matthew Travis, to inform him that the White House had overruled CISA’s succession plan that named him acting director, essentially forcing him to resign, Travis said.” A DHS spokesman said the White House did not directly ask Travis to step down.
With Travis out, CISA leadership goes to Brandon Wales, “a career employee whom Trump cannot fire,” Politico says. “Mr. Krebs specifically created Mr. Wales’ position as executive director to make it more difficult for the White House to install partisan replacements atop the agency,” The Wall Street Journal reports, citing a person familiar with the matter.
Before joining the Trump administration in 2017, Krebs worked in the George W. Bush DHS then served as a lobbyist for Microsoft. In 2018 he was promoted to DHS undersecretary for the National Protection and Programs Directorate, which became CISA with legislation signed in November 2018. Krebs became the de facto “cyber czar” when the White House eliminated the cybersecurity coordinator position at the National Security Council. During his tenure, he worked not just on shoring up America’s creaky election security but also on cybersecurity and ransomware threats at hospitals, utilities, and other critical infrastructure.
Krebs won widespread praise for increasing trust and cooperation with disparate federal agencies, hackers, and state and local election officials. He survived several shakeups at Trump’s DHS, but his “Rumor Control” initiative to swat down election misinformation was evidently a bridge too far for Trump, whose misinformation Krebs repeatedly, if indirectly, debunked. “Honored to serve,” Krebs tweeted after his firing. “We did it right. Defend Today, Secure Tomorrow.” Peter Weber

I can only imagine the cost run an empty train. Amtrak is .50 cents per passenger mile. An 8 car set at full capacity carries 1,000 passengers. Figure our electrified line is about 16 miles from end to end leaving off the diesel set which continues another 60 or so miles west and north. So that’s $8,000 a trip times 31 round trips per day. That’s half a milllion a dollars a day. What do you think it would cost to run 4 buses that go back and forth 31 times a day? I know I can rent a bus with driver, gas included for about $1,200 per day.

Libturd,
Dollar costs will probably stay the same but revenue is plummeting. I guess the union has rules preventing layoffs so the state thinks they may as well run the trains anyway? Still they could reduce power costs by reducing trains.
The Democrat way to react to the crisis would be to hire consultants to deal with racial justice and LGBT prejudice within in the NJ Transit workforce. Because then more of the correct-thinking people can ride on that gravy train.
Perhaps they can even host struggle sessions on the nearly empty trains.

Why don’t people test n95 type masks that actually filter the relevant contaminant?
Instead of virtue signaling with cloth masks.

I rented the Home Depot truck for $20 and stuck it in my garage. It’s currently red and intentionally distressed, so it looks horrible.

GA – 16 electoral votes – Margin = 14,000 votes
AZ – 11 electoral votes – Margin = 11,000 votes
WI – 10 electoral votes – Margin = 20,000 votes.
If these 45,000 votes go the other way, it is 269-269. If it tied, Trump wins (assuming the process played out along partisan lines).
Crazy close considering Covid was expected to absolutely tank Trump’s re-election chances.
Biden will start wars just like Obama. The lobbyists will get what the lobbyists want with joe.
He’s already handed theDOE over to the teachers union ensuring that poor kids are trapped in failing schools and maintaining their government dependence. That’s the #1 issue for the democrat party. Bang for your vote buying buck.
That study is interesting, but leaves out a very important variable. There was no assessment of whether masks could decrease disease transmission from mask wearers to others. I have a feeling the numbers significantly improve when masks are handled and worn properly by BOTH parties.
If you really believe in science, take a look at the pre tds studies. Masks are worthless against aerosols.

Don’t worry, your wife will continue to support you. The point, as you again miss by a mile, is that this type of election behavior is what’s usually done in a small country in Central America. No one who despises your ilk or what it stands for is asking for anything. No Trump supporters are destroying anything or seeking some sort of retribution. It’s what losers do. It’s what weaklings do. It’s what deadbeats do. It’s what the left stands for. The anger comes from a very flawed, inaccurate, faulty and imprecise system. It’s an epic error-prone process. Why the fear of a voter ID card? Or a VPN, RSA or secure app? I know the answer… it’s because that means legitimacy and truth, things that liberals avoid like a vampire avoids a cruc1fix.
Do you understand what happens to the economy if you cut this for savings? You hurt the economy more than you will save. How many businesses will go out of business as these workers are no longer buying stuff since you cut their job. How many will now be on unemployment lines? There is a reason public service is separate from the private economy and not run the same. It’s the only way of not destroying the economy during bad times.
Right now, it’s to our benefit that more people don’t lose their jobs and slow down the economy even more. We want to get out of this hole.

– entering without a mask in closed areas, spitting out in the stores
– yelling screaming, trying to throw out millions of legal votes
– bypassing the elector selection process
– sending money to pay the legal Rudy but indirectly sending to a fraud PAC
perhaps you can also send your investment gains to your cult leader.
“Understand that money is moving through the economy and not staying in one individual’s pocket.”
Put it back in this individuals pocket who is working and would love to and needs to spend it.

Essex that in and of itself should raise some eyebrows……
10m more votes than any candidate in US history…..Biden……and you wonder why the trumptards are crying foul. Even if you don’t believe there was fraud that stretches the imagination.
JCer,
Not really. Trump got the second most number of votes of all time. Both sides declared this “the most important election of their lifetimes” and more states mailed out ballots than ever, which made it easier to vote generally. So even low-motivation voters had an easier time voting. Did new voter registration also set records? I bet yes.
Normally Biden wouldn’t motivate a lot of voters to turn out, but Trump’s personal flaws plus social media magnification helped turn out anti-trump voters. Had Trump ever learned to act “presidential” he might have won.
That said, I think voting should require some kind of secure identification. Of all the things the government regulates, it’s not an accident that this is the one function about which democrats seem “laissez-faire”.
Silly progressive squad, belief in Biden’s campaign promises are for kids.
No One, actually most metropolitan areas show about the same excitement about Biden as HRC. The results look fishy….

Nabisco/Mondelez . . .
I have a friend who claims a relative works on the manufacturing line in a Mondelez cookie plant in NJ making over $100k per year (including overtime). I noted to myself that the article mentioned union representatives weighing in on the potential plant closure in Fair Lawn. Property taxes on the Fair Lawn facility . . . a cool $1,005,662.25 per year for 39.71 acres.
Lol at Gottheimer or the mayor of Fair Lawn thinking they have anything to say whatsoever to a multinational corporation. The big corporations can move capital, jobs and facilities whereever they want. The mayor of Fair Lawn can slap around 3 Brothers Pizza, Ainu Sushi, and a teacher without tenure all day, but big companies would and should and can laugh at his protestations while pissing on his head from the top of their tallest building in his town.
As you might guess from my username, I have a graduate degree and have never cracked $100k/year in my life, while working in tough (albeit, white collar) conditions.
Turnout for this election was very weird . . .
I am not qualified to judge if there was a single fradulent ballot. I do not have any view into the vote-counting system to have an intelligent opinion about vote counting. Still, these numbers for this election just look very weird in historical context. Trump got 11m more votes than 2016 and still lost? Biden, who no one was excited about, got 14m more votes than HRC?

“I have a graduate degree and have never cracked $100k/year in my life,”
Not saying this is you, but 80k with pension and Cadillac health benefits plus tenure is worth more than 100k without those things.
So a teacher making 70k is way ahead of a corporate stiff making 100k. Especially since most are women and most will live 10 years longer than the sucker they married.

More corruption:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Before William Barr became President Donald Trump’s choice to lead the U.S. Department of Justice, he represented Caterpillar Inc, a Fortune 100 company, in a federal criminal investigation by the department.
Much was at stake for Caterpillar: Since 2018, the Internal Revenue Service has been demanding $2.3 billion in payments from the company in connection with the tax matters under criminal investigation. The company is contesting that finding.
A week after Barr was nominated for the job of attorney general, Justice officials in Washington told the investigative team in the active criminal probe of Caterpillar to take “no further action” in the case, according to an email written by one of the agents and reviewed by Reuters.
The decision, the email said, came from the Justice Department’s Tax Division and the office of the deputy attorney general, who was then Rod Rosenstein.
“I was instructed on December 13, 2018,” wrote the agent, Jason LeBeau, “that the Tax Division and the Office of the Deputy Attorney General jointly came to the decision that no further action was to be taken on the matter until further notice.” LeBeau, an inspector general agent at the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, declined interview requests from Reuters.
Dear Children,
If you were so worried about Granny and Grandpa, why not take them home when hospitals were overflowing? Shortage of toilet paper perhaps?
In addition, it’s unclear the extent to which the governor’s policy was responsible for nursing home COVID-19 deaths. Infection control is a long-standing problem in nursing homes, predating the pandemic, and a report showed peak numbers of nursing home deaths came prior to the peak influx of patients as a result of Cuomo’s advisory. While the introduction of COVID-19 positive patients into nursing homes no doubt had an effect on infection spread, Caputo’s statement suggests it was solely responsible. That’s not what the evidence shows.
We rate this Mostly False.

So Nabisco waits until after the election they think Biden won to announce they are shipping 600 jobs to MX. Sounds about right. There should be a wave of these announcements. Biden just hired 40 lobbyists. They will find a loophole for everyone.

Nabisco sold out to the Globalists decades ago, palm oil deforestation, millions of children used to pick cocoa in Africa.
Who need their crap….
Why give stimulus? Why was stimulus so needed? This is what I meant in my post, that cutting those govt jobs does more harm to the economy than good. Now, if we could get the corporate elite to understand the harm they do when they ship/eliminate jobs in the name of cost. They are shooting themselves in the foot most of the time, but just don’t realize it because they only view the world in the short term, not long term.

relo,
MSM has been constantly talking about how GOP down the ballot races outperformed, and that Pelosi’s career/influence are on the wane. The elephant in the room is that the President hasn’t conceded. So, would that be the news or the fact that he “came close” be the news?
Eddie,
as long as your personal time, space and money isn’t involved.
You mean like taxes/charity and such, or something else? The country is rich enough that it can take care of ALL all the residents very well, without making a dent in the golden toilets of the rich. Yet, the GOP seems to want to cut the taxes for the rich and squeeze the poor.
I think a few of us here likely had no benefits from Trump’s tax cuts or stimulus checks and will likely pay higher taxes in Biden’s admin, but isn’t it a better position to be in than making less money and a lower marginal tax rate.
SomeOne,
I have not personally heard anyone talking about how Pelosi’s influence is waning. In reference to Republicans down the ballot outperforming it is only in reference to how the “Blue Wave” did not come to fruition.
The country is rich enough that it can take care of ALL all the residents very well…

“Michael Nussbaum, a 49-year-old resident of Northern Virginia, remembers the day his Boy Scout Explorers troop leader, a police sergeant in the Miami area, asked him if he wanted to look at magazines. Thinking he meant comic books, the then-14-year-old boy agreed. Instead, the troop leader placed X-rated magazines on a desk in front of him and started groping Nussbaum, he said. The sergeant placed a gun on a table and told Nussbaum that if he ever said anything about what happened, no one would believe him.
Nussbaum ultimately reported the incident. The sergeant, Jon Wyatt, was found guilty of sexually abusing minors. He is serving a life sentence. But the trauma lingered for Nussbaum, and he often found himself having problems with authority figures. “My dreams of being a police officer were completely diminished,” he said.”

As usual, Truth is obsessed with masculinity. Never fails to mention it. His definition of alpha male is the one who bloviates the biggest lie in the room against the other side. I save terms like alpha male for real leaders like Eisenhower. Trump is an big Orange baby, born on third base with no morals. Being a lying, belligerent ass&ole is not alpha but sadly that is what your side apparently needs to see and ultimately project on their “leaders”.

I have my doubts about the election but at some point there needs to be some evidence…
I don’t discount CIA/NSA involvement but how do you prove it? If they were involved they have the tools and influence to go undetected, machine manipulation would be very, very hard to prove(easier to rig an election than to assassinate the president). There is a reason Brennan wants them to invoke the 25th amendment, that guy is bad news.
The obvious stuff is ham-fisted democratic machine ballot stuffing facilitated by the covid related ballot changes, I don’t for a minute believe all the states decided to take a break from counting or the tales of broken pipes, the other wise shady behavior around counting in secret. Based on the numbers without the mail-in ballot change Trump wins election cleanly despite being a moron. No doubt there was ballot harvesting but how do you prove it, as far as I can tell there is no record of chain of custody and no ability to tie ballots to envelopes(if they even kept them)?
The clear play is preventing the state from certifying and sending electors. The republicans in GA certifying the recount is a big loss for Trump. I do not see anything they have allowing them to win in court in most of these states. Lots of bluster, little content.
To recap:
– Raffensperger said the audit checked out, found no fraud, and to his regret as a Trump backer, Biden won Georgia
– His office announced he certified this result
– His office then rescinded that announcement
– Gov. Kemp set a press conf for the certification deadline
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said he does not plan to extend several key emergency lending programs beyond the end of the year and asked the Federal Reserve to return the money supporting them, a decision that could hinder President-elect Joe Biden’s ability to use the central bank’s vast powers to cushion the economic fallout from the virus.
Mnuchin said Thursday that he would not continue Fed programs, including ones that support the markets for corporate bonds and municipal debt and one that extends loans to mid-sized businesses. The emergency efforts expire at the end of 2020, but investors had expected some or all of them to be kept operational as the virus continues to pose economic risks.
The pandemic-era programs are run by the Fed but use Treasury money to insure against losses. They have provided an important backstop that has calmed critical markets since the coronavirus took hold in March. Removing them could leave significant corners of the financial world vulnerable to the type of volatility that cascaded through the system as virus fears mounted in the spring.

Controlling outcome is a lot more difficult than it appears. Look up Charles Koch new book about how he admits the all mighty Koch Brothers screwed up big time, and it looked so simple when you did a thought exercise and followed Ayn Rands writings and lectures.
That is just politics. Vaccine, well survey says 40% of people in NJ will refuse it. Economics, there a lot of zombies out there, not the brain eating types but ones that end with Inc or Corp or LLC, but they are on holding pattern because of low interest rate debt. Same applies for NJ residents that are broke, as in negative worth, nothing to eat, forget about paying rent or mortgage- all that will become way clear after January 2021
WFH is here to stay regardless of the fear and terror it brings to one of the posters here!
Gov. Phil Murphy on Friday continued to say all options are “on the table” when it comes to fighting the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic in New Jersey — but he also suggested it’s irresponsible to close indoor dining or nonessential retail stores without more federal aid.
Too dangerous all summer, with 300 cases a day max. 3500 cases a day…can’t shut it down. I guess lives are expendable now Murph? Clueless. Could have allowed businesses to build a decent buffer in the summer coming into this flu season. Instead…we are begging for a bailout.
8:17 i like WFH. Let’s face it, i just like working in my field.
It’s fun to never leave your house. That’s what I want to do with my life, stay locked in my house all day only talking to people through screens. If that’s the future, we are doomed.
That’s the scary part, the more people get in this rut, the harder it is to get out of. God knows how many people have already become antisocial due to this pandemic. Soon they will be afraid to leave the house, too scared and no ambition to interact with the world if it’s not through a screen. Sad..

Go to the store? You mean see other human beings face to face? You mean LEAVE THE HOUSE?! God forbid.
Tech is really doing the world a disservice.
I leave my house all the time. Sometimes I drive to Malibu (16 miles away).
Sometimes I shop. WFH just means I have a corner of my house dedicated to trying to make a livin’
Ex Essex Me too and so do most people. No idea what he is rambling on about. And of course n
Ex Essex So do I and most others as well that actually WFH.
Malibu is a good time. Ate at a Thai joint on the PCH a few years back, one my my clients took me there for dinner – was thinking, what the hell is this shack of a place. We sat next to Heidi Klum.
Start buying a house before it becomes a lot more expensive.
“It may seem strange to be worried about inflation in the midst of a global recession, a pandemic and huge political ructions in the U.S., but I strongly suspect that it’s about to pick up both soon and sharply. How fast this happens depends on how quickly the developed world recovers over the next few months, but pressures are building. As has been the case for many years, global inflation has “Made in Asia” stamped all over it. This time, though, that’s likely to be compounded by much greater supply constraints in the economy.”

Do you guys actually work? How are you leaving your home when you are supposed to be working?
Again, you guys have this romanticized view of WFH. You are the ones that think you are going to continue having all this free time? Big brother is watching and they will eliminate your job and hire a part time consultant if you aren’t pushing those keys enough. Use your smarts, tech is trying to control every aspect of your life, and people like you are embracing it.
And it’s fine you guys go out, you are old. The new generation is becoming anti social. You want to go on zoom dates? Like wtf?! These people are f’ed. Throwing everything away that was good about life. God forbid you leave your house to go to work. God forbid you actually go to the store instead of having it delivered.
And remember, if you have kids or grandkids, WFH will destroy a lot of opportunities for them as they are now directly competing with workers from India for their job. They are creating the outsourcing model for white collar jobs right before your f’ing eyes and you are cheering it on like a lemming.
Going to be forced to move to a lower cost location in another country….I wish people could think long term. They are creating a platform where they could move your job to a low cost location with zero costs. We are so f’ed, it’s not even funny.
Do you think business is looking out for you? You think they are doing this to improve the lives of workers? Nah, it’s always about fattening their bottom line, so be fearful when these CEO’s are selling you this crap like that article posted by bystander yesterday.
You are heroes. Go out and do your “hero” thing. Don’t blame someone else, heroes don’t do that.
Not once have I ever heard Superman or Spiderman blame someone else. They quietly did their jobs, then disappeared into their mild manner careers.
“NYPD union chief says commuters have to protect themselves because city is doing NOTHING to stop subway attacks as woman who was shoved onto tracks is identified”
WFH is here to stay and it’s going to hammer housing prices in this area. NYC and surrounding area will have to be become competitive. The days of high prices for commercial and residential real estate in this area and the accompanying high taxes are coming to an end. WFH is a game changer. All the hysterics against it won’t change that. Plan accordingly.
WFH is going to increase. Competition as well as geography won’t matter, you can get a teacher from Taiwan for 1/10 the cost and Zoom her into your living room.
Automation is going to kill off many jobs as well. America has also decided that monopolies are fine, Bezos is going to eliminate CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens in due time.
Lawyers will keep their jobs as they Zoom due to licensing locations. Medical workers will be hit as you can travel to another state to get your knees replaced where it’s cheaper. Police are the enforcers, that job is going nowhere anytime soon.
3b,
Yea, real estate prices are getting hammered by WFH. Sure. Quite the opposite.
As for commercial, it’s still land and space in valuable locations. It doesn’t have to be an office, it can be converted.
So dream on. The wealthy class own real estate and they are not going to abandon it.
I feel bad for the future. I’m 16 years in already, if this does happen, I will already have played out my career as a teacher anyway. So this isn’t about me, it’s about your kids. Some of them are going to want to be teachers, but that will never happen. Sold it off in the name of blood money. F’k the local community, we want blood money.
“Competition as well as geography won’t matter, you can get a teacher from Taiwan for 1/10 the cost and Zoom her into your living room.”
“stay locked in my house all day only talking to people through screens.”
Says the dufus who posted non-stop all day, everyday for years. Pre-pandemic too. The irony is too laughable.
8:27 dO yOu gUyS aCtuaLly wOrk….?
Hilarious.
I will say that anyone who has a struggling kid isn’t getting much help from their unionized teaching staff. Most are starting to realize how limited their teachers are and uninterested in actually helping anyone (except themselves) and they are having to hire tutors, homework help, and test prep firms if their distance-learning offspring has any chance at all. Guess what? It’d be exactly the same if the kid was sitting in the classroom .
Remote learning is inferior to in person learning. You know this, there is no doubt about it.
Should be called the new Subaru Descent
“The new Subaru Ascent 3-Row family hauler is dragging the automaker’s score down.
The newest SUV makes the Consumer Reports 10 Least Reliable Cars list and lost their recommendation due to reliability issues. CR says the Ascent 3-Row SUV initially had average reliability, but recent transmission problems, sometimes requiring a replacement, have lowered its reliability score.”
12:30 of course
Biden’s popular Vote exceeds 6M over Trump.
Q is dead.
From a survey. Had to have fun with this one.
Q. Which of the following will you most trust for advising you to get the vaccine?
A. President Trump recommends it.
Hey fastness – A behind-the-back-talker (you) usually has to deal with his or her own insecurities that stem from something either they missed or was not taught to them during their childhood. It could also be something seriously gone wrong in their upbringing. These aren’t necessarily bad people; oftentimes they are simply misguided and have not learned the basic skills of being able to coexist and socialize properly with other people.
Maybe the way to play this …go buy up the real estate in the foreign locations they are taking advantage of. Sell when they start getting raises and driving up the real estate.
Hit wash, rinse, and repeat. Easy money.
