  1. But really hasn't lack of affordable childcare and corporate welfare always been an issue? My point was the unemployment rate today is similar to pre-pandemic levels. I also know we have to...
  2. You misunderstood me and went off on some tangents I wasn't addressing. What I said: I also think we're seeing the gush of pandemic spending which can't be sustained leave the economy....
  3. I sounds dramatic when you phrase it as a 41% increase. But I also think we're seeing the gush of pandemic spending which can't be sustained leave the economy. Also jobs are a bit more plentiful and...

    Friday February 18 2022

    Good morning! Joe, I'm surprised they don't have a home infusion company helping J and delivering his antibiotics to his home. Anyway I wish him well. Great letter Stars. At this point I...
  5. Good morning! Stars, good for you for writing to the editor. BF gets things published in the editorials frequently. Usually about local politics or education. Ado, hope you get some down...
  6. Good morning! Brother in law picked up his dog and he was glowing, saying what a good place it was and he was sure I'd like it. I'd never been to the lakes in central Florida and it sounded like...
  7. That Democrats have spied on him. He's made allegations against Obama in the past. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/02/15/heres-why-trump-once-again-is-claiming-spying-by-democrats/...
  8. Good morning! J22, that menu sounds delish. Insurance can be frustrating a year ago with the same insurance I had a $10 copay for my labs. Six months ago I had the same copay then got a...

    Those Who Have Left Nursing

    Yes, I hate when nurses trump another profession with "I save lives", "I've held the hand of the dying", "I've hugged a mother after her baby died". We are all of equal value. As far as...
  10. It's going to be interesting how this unfolds. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/02/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-white-house-spying I certainly would like to know the truth....
  11. Yes, Australia wouldn't open up until 80% were vaccinated. Melbourne endured nearly nine months in lockdown before this occurred. I wasn't criticizing Australia was addressing your statement "...
  12. Still, Denmark this week is averaging over 45,000 cases a day in a population of 5.8 million. Florida's 7 day average is 10,000 with a population of 20 million, with almost 65% vaccinated so no, you...
  13. Yes. Part of it stems from the blame game. Recently we had a fall in on our floor. The doctor chastised us saying "there's no excuse whatsoever for a fall on this unit with my patients". His...

    Super Bowl Sunday February 13 2022

    If you describe "frequently" as a maybe three then you're right Nel. LOL Sadly, I'm prone to make the same mistakes over and over and over again like getting the date or month wrong. By...
  15. I can't remember where I got the 20 million number. I think it was from Brennan. But I don't know what the recent numbers are. The rest of the post is sarcastic....
  16. I think it's on our radar, but something we'd rather move past. What is currently on our minds is inflation and covid fatigue. Polls are showing Americans are less hopeful and more worried about the...
  17. There's no good argument because all we're going to say is that is being done to stop voter fraud. Never mind that most of those without government IDs, 20 million people, are minorities....
  18. I agree. It's ugly, and we're not very good at looking deeply into our ugliness. It was Americans (white ones) attacking America (our Capitol, our Democratic process). Best to sweep this one to...
  19. I don't think so. I don't mean all conservatives, but some don't believe the media, or like one of my coworkers says "I just don't know what to believe..." even when confronted with the truth and...

    Valentines Day Monday Feb 14th 2022

    Good morning! Joe, hope you have a decent day. Ado, I'm in Florida. We are literally on all four corners of the state. Dianah is SW in California. J22 is NW in Washington state, BC is NE in...
  21. Pessimistically I don't think anything that comes out of January 6th investigation is going to matter. It's way down on the news cycle and interest. People care about bread and butter issues like...

    New nurse-too old for bedside?

    I'll be 63 in May and in my 30th year at the bedside, as a med-surg nurse no less. I've seen nurses my age thrive, and others fall apart that can't be on their feet for 12 hours or have a bad...
  23. https://www.usnews.com/news/the-report/articles/2022-02-11/bidens-loss-isn't-trumps-gain While the mid-terms are a good ways away, I agree with Beerman it's going to be a tough one for Democrats...
  24. At the end of the day none of this matters as Democrats bid for change in voting rights died on arrival. Biden pretty much seems like a lame duck president at this point especially with the general...
  25. And the more mistakes like the 50,000 ballots in Ohio that were mailed out incorrectly, and others that were lost or found in a ditch. Concerns are valid. 2020 was an unprecedented year for mail...
