Being ancient, I can remember them all over Detroit.Detroit is shaped 8 to 10 miles north and south, but 30 miles east and west. In order to get to the far east side, you could take the Clairemont street car (which was what we called the trolly) and it meandered up and down over and around some tomes swerving around corners making the car tilt way over. It was as much fun as the 25 cent ride at the amusement park.

You may be right. The last time I looked at that test was when I helped my Grandma pass it 65 years ago. Probably need to write a new one.

Johnson will never win. To be a Libertarian and to even get in competition, let alone be a nominee in the major debate would require a person of exceptional presence, a great orator, and a marvelous fund raiser. Johnson isn't it.

AFLAC!

Aw, shucks! A-huck! A-huck!

OooooK...I'll match that and raise you...wait...wait for it... ... ... A Private Gas Station for every car AND an automatic Garage door for every garage!

I was kind of kidding on aleppo - who the hell cares about it, but it was a funny part of the interview I saw with Johnson

I could do 10% with essentially no detriment to my lifestyle. When you get past 20-25%, it would be difficult though. Its sort of like conservation, which works in the beginning pretty good.

With inflation raging, I have already cut back so that my own expenses are about what they were several years ago, but I can feel it getting more difficult. In our business we have cut expenses by moving work to china, but I have reached a limit there lately. Not all things can be moved to china profitably !! If Hillary gets in 25% of our employees will be priced out of the market with her $15/hr wage

It belongs to the people who fund the clinton foundation

Ever see this, dino?

I frankly think knowing A Leppo is irrelevant. Knowing why being there at all violates the constitution is vital.

Already agreed with this in theory (see my replies to dino above), Herb, although I bet we'd be surprised at how much propaganda rubbish is in that citizenship test. Knowing past events is just muck compared to understanding what the constitution really means, and that is not available in public school, nor in any commercial program to teach immigrants.

I'm already doing it, term, so I definitely agree that a consumer strike could be quite effective albeit with side effects.

Nobody says it better.

Algebra humbugabra!
My contradictory opinion.
Nothing to take personally.

All in a sudden I have this mental picture of a brassiere.

Our government--which no longer belongs to "We The People"--is a big stupid humongous fat ass without a clue.

Thats why we need education first, otherwise it will be just rebuilt into another crony government

This writer is totally devoid of some of the basic facts. Who gives a rats ass about such important things as the National debt or any of the other real issues for that matter? Clearly, a vast majority and especially those stuck in the Clinton camp can't even name who her running mate is or tell you who the current VP is but they know all about and believe every word of the alleged sexual exploits of DJT. So many mindless idiots with their heads stuck in their social media devices but not to worry because they sure are not here.

Somewhat Off topic...
You may not use it, dino, but can you remember how to use algebra? I don't use it often either, but knowing how makes some normal life tasks possible and easy. I could even argue that use of algebra made my career as a software consultant possible for without it I would not have been able to construct the forecasting program that amazed partners at DeLoitte and Touche and supplied recommendations for many other consulting engagements that were unrelated. Just Saturday my friend asked for help with measurements for a costume she was making, and algebra was the key. (Her costume won a prize, too.)
I bet the great majority of Phd's would fail the algebra voting hurdle. But the point is not to eliminate people who disagree from the voter pool. There must be a standard for rational thinking and the ability to look at a problem, break it down into components and (1) find a rational solution, and/or (2) expose delusional "solutions". Some people can do this without even obviously organizing their thoughts, but most need a logical method similar to the processes required to be able to do algebra. Obviously, this is just my opinion and I don't pretend it is a complete solution ;^)

I rode on one when I was a kid. Loved it!
There's still some trolley tracks in downtown Birmingham.

You got that right big time!
