I have a wife, three young children, and a mortgage, and it didn't filter me out. The money isn't the biggest challenge, it is tough work and it takes a long time to reach the pay off. The daily grind up against the machine that i

For what appears to be such a well researched article, the author completely gets the theology of Methodists and Baptists wrong. Not only does he do a poor job of trying to explain Arminianism, and he associates it with Baptists, which it i

No in the case of classified material, it is a crime to be incompetent. The only burdon of proof is that the disclosure in some way harms the United States, and that the disclosure was knowingly and willfully done. She knew she had and E-ma

This isn't an employee rights case. The only winner in this case is not employees but other Taxi services. If I were an Uber driver I don't want to be an employee. I want to be a contractor that can turn his app on or off at will.
