In the past becoming a state gave PR less overall. I guess that has changed. I wonder if Barry and the Democrats will push this in his second term.
They elect too many democrats that's the biggest reason. So they have a lousy business climate. Also most PR citizens don't speak English, and PR is not close to the rest of the US, so COL is high like Hawaii and Alaska.
Any one want to invest in my new company, "Windmill Demolition Inc"? I think there will be plenty of business coming up soon. It will be green as all the metal will be recycled into SUV's.
I worked a maintenance job for the summer breaks at the college I went to. When working in various places on campus we would have radios to listen to when working (the school didn't hold classes in the summer). Nothing got professors in a snit faster then a radio with Rush on it. They never complained about music or anything else. But Rush, that was a different story. Thankfully our supervisor told them to take a hike, and she thought it was funny that's the only thing they complained about. She actually encouraged us to listen to Rush when she knew they would be in earshot.
The sad thing is, that school is far from being a left wing school (probably the only reason the supervisor was able to blow off those profs). I imagine had we been on a different campus, our radios would have been silenced.
It seems that two professions that have major problems today have the same problem. Teaching is one and News Reporting is the the other. They seem like simple enough jobs, report events and teach children. The problem is that both are filled with people today who think they will change the world by being one of these professionals. Only problem with that idea. You can't do that and do what you are paid to be doing. Namely teaching and reporting. Both require (or used to) that you report facts or teach facts. But these people want to be activists and bring in their opinions (usually wrong, or far from the mainstream) and present them as facts.
Want to "change the world"? Don't be a teacher or a reporter, because you aren't doing your job if you are.
Good luck on them Occupiers leaving on their own.
Government agencies should never be able to make and then enforce rules. Never, its basically unconstitutional. Why have a congress passing bills and a president signing them, if government bureaucracy are coming up with its own laws on its own. And that is what they are doing.
ICC was a bad idea that got us started on this road. Its going to be very hard to reverse that.
I am so tired of funding liberal organizations with tax dollars. Imagine the outrage if tax dollars went to fund programs like Rush Limbaugh. I wish liberals weren't so cheap.
not a surprise, few people actually listen to PBS-NPR let alone its individual programs, there is a reason why it needs tax dollars.
