    Most Government Workers Could Be Replaced By Robots, New Study Finds

    Did not vote for trump, I think he and Hilary were the worst kind of joke and we all ended up being the punchline. As for putting people out of work I mentioned earlier that the government and economists are already working on a plan if that happens. We will just have to evolve into something...

    Most Government Workers Could Be Replaced By Robots, New Study Finds

    Much less then I used to have to in the past. Technology has advanced more rapidly in the last 100 years than the previous 200,000 years before that. Modern humans have been around for 200,000 years (give or take), the electric motor was invented around the 1820's, the first programmable...

    Most Government Workers Could Be Replaced By Robots, New Study Finds

    Eventually almost all our jobs will be replaced by robots. Not long ago I read an article that says some government officials are preparing for this inevitability by figuring out how people will support themselves in a world with no jobs. If you truly think about it there is no job that can't be...

    Letter to editor

    The article doesn't give enough information on what disruptive really means. Diane is saying disruptive while the nursing home would probably say combative or aggressive and the truth is probably some ware in the middle. I have seen a few relatives and friends relatives go through Alzheimer’s or...

    What Side of The Fence Are You On?

    Even around here. Haven't you noticed all of the mini crosses in front of the local churches? Those aren't for service members, they are supposed to represent unwanted and discarded fetuses.

    What Side of The Fence Are You On?

    Would you rather foot the bill for a 3 minute vacuuming or 18 + years of raising the unwanted kid by a single parent with no job and on the taxpayer dime? Also the whole thing seems backwards if you ask me. Republicans do realize that low income people that will have 4 + kids that they can't...

    Trump Team's Meeting With Latino Leaders Gets Mixed Reviews

    I think they should revise the immigration policy so that anyone here illegally without a criminal record could have a chance to stay for a 10 year probationary period. All they would have to do is sign a contract that states they will have a job in under 3 months, they will stay out of trouble...

    Taxation Is Theft?

    It is not theft it is a payment for services rendered. If people don't pay their fair share of taxes then they are the thieves. You use the roads every day, you depend on cops and jails to keep you safe, you send your kids to public schools, you go to libraries, you benefit from a military that...

    Top Ten Reasons For Single Payer

    I do want to ask everyone in favor of the same level of healthcare for every person what they think the benefit to the middle class would be. This would increase the cost of healthcare for the middle class and our reward for working all of our adult lives, staying out of trouble, and paying...

    Unemployment

    A little over 2 years ago I lost my funding and my job that I was with for 13 years. I have to admit it was scary and I had a mini freak out. I had a savings but I was still thinking about what I could sell to support myself until I found another job. I also was crunching numbers to see what was...

    Federal court rules dogs can be shot if they bark

    No it does not. I have never been robbed by anyone for money so they can buy alcohol or tobacco, I have been robbed by someone because they were going through withdrawals and needed money to buy their heroin and meth. This was at a time when I could not afford to lose the money that I worked for...

    Statement by the President on Actions in Response to Russian Malicious Cyber Activity and Harassment

    What I want to know is what happened to his public statement that never in the recent history of our country has anyone been able to hack or rig our elections. Remember that, when he told Trump to stop whining? I hate Trump as much as the next guy but he won and now Obama is whining and crying...

    Federal court rules dogs can be shot if they bark

    Sorry to say but it was still the dealers lifestyle that got their dogs killed. If they were law abiding citizens with legal jobs their dogs would be alive today. If they were law abiding citizens with legal jobs and the cops still kicked in their door and killed their dogs then they have a case...

    Nine Million Oxy Pills To One Pharmacy In Town Of 392 People (video)

    Looks like another attempt to blame anything and everything for an individuals inability to control themselves. It is the modern equivalent of "its society's fault". The fact that the addict is the one who graduated from a legal prescription to taking more then the doctor prescribed, to crushing...

    Senator’s Solution To The Opioid Crisis

    We seriously need to consider expanding this program to include food addicts, sex addicts, cigarette smokers, video game addicts, internet addicts, compulsive gamblers, etc.... If everyone that works would just give half of their pay to the "I have no will power, I don't take any responsibility...
