Well clearly here you have a bunch of elites that just don't care about the average employee at one of these places. This article is full of so much garbage and hand waving it's incredible. This is the exactly the kind of elitist

I think the secret salary thing is something employees have been fooled into thinking is something best for them because it's really not at any level good for the employee and that's from the CEO all the way down to the janitor. C

He did admit to realizing he had the gun when he reached in to his bag mid flight. We don't know the state of the gun, was it loaded, was it secured in a holster with a covered trigger, etc... But how this could happen is, if the gun

I agree with that sentiment because not knowing where your firearm is, is a very bad thing. Because if you don't know where your firearm is you cannot be confident of its status if it is loaded or not. That being said, I still don'

You should do more research on these cases the TSA does stop a number of firearms but the number of people who are actually fined and or arrested is quite small. Because the TSA does take into account that carrying and transported some fire

Discharge during flight... You have the classic movie understanding of firearms. Firearms do not accidentally discharge without them being played with.

Ownership and carrying a firearm is a legal thing here in US. While the TSA should have caught it, they are people that make mistakes. Other countries don't share the same laws but they should make considerations where travel is concer

This seems like a scheme to get people to cluster around the mean and not actually make a meaningful impact to get people to move to higher income brackets. There is one core thing that is curiously lacking in this that providing everyone w

It's not that the rules are unsafe it's that bad drivers are doing bad behavior that is unsafe. Everything that the article cites as the problem with right turn on red has nothing at all to do with the law it has to do with bad dr

But what your doing is mapping one concept on to another. Stop signs and stop lights are different. The only times they should be considered the same is when the lights are totally out or when they're flashing red. Creating the mental

The funny thing is everyone knows the right turn on red but they are never taught why that's allowed and that sometimes left turn on red is allowed too when the same conditions apply.

Banning it instead of fixing the drivers. I guess that is the easiest way to fix the immediate problem but it's not a long term solution to the problem that as cars have gotten smarter drivers have gotten dumber, more distracted and

It really depends what you're trying to solve for. UV light will kill bacteria but sometimes the dead bacteria can be more toxic than the live ones. Same goes with boiling. Is it better than untreated water? Yes, of course it is but is
