Oh good, Donald Trump put Ivanka in charge of fixing something. That will work out. This is all how government should work.

I think the problem is it's so obliterated they can't get video footage of the disaster out easily. That and we don't even need Kanye this time

I honestly feel like, given my experiences there a few years ago and seeing economic and population decline, that it will either take a decade or two to recover to close to their current level or it never will and will just linger in slow decline. Those are the options. It seemed like one in four hotels was closed when I went and there was a malaise over people leaving for the mainland and better opportunity. Now this? My guess is once things start improving people will take that as a chance to leave rather rebuild in many cases and that is unsustainable. I am also concerned about their special natural qualities like the state of their protected forests and in particular what happened to their bioluminescent bay. If anyone finds information on that please post it. Shammypants fucked around with this message at 20:36 on Sep 25, 2017 |

Koalas March posted:This is a bad post. Oprah has done a lot of good things. Including uplifting black women and supporting them in the entertainment industry to get more media produced by us out. I'll back this up, I've worked with her twice and she was great to work with. Second time was a few months later and she squinted for a second but remembered my name which is loving crazy to me considering I do news and don't appear on any call sheet. Her people are difficult and made me drink a lot later but she was great!

Your Taint posted:A dam there is about to burst and really gently caress poo poo up. I honeslty don't think Trump knows or cares that Puerto Ricans are US citizens. He's too busy getting angry about black people. http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/25/us/hurricane-maria-puerto-rico/index.html Of course, this means we will have a legitimate humanitarian disaster in a U.S. territory that we are ultimately responsible for.

What is this supposed to fix? it lets one state abolish all regulations and then states can sell insurance from that state in other states basically, it's a backdoor way to abolish state regulation of insurance

What is this supposed to fix? They assume that insurance companies would all move to whatever state has the most relaxed laws and just get away with murder. Same way that all credit card companies are from delaware or South Dakota

Target just announced that it will raise the minimum wage for all employees to $11 per hour in October and slowly raise it to $15 an hour by 2020. The new minimum wage will be uniform across all stores and not determined by COL. It will also not support its trade association's, The National Retail Federation, efforts to lobby against minimum-wage increases at the national or local level. https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/25/what-the-20-largest-retailers-in-america-pay-their-employees.html
