"$29,883 property tax from every property owner (based on 56% home ownership) to fund the initial build-out of the rail plus unknown annual M&A fees justifies the rail for the few it benefits?" Where are you getting this from? Can you you please point out where I can find this charge to property tax? By the way, I am not new here and I have lived on this island all of my life. Where are you from? Are you from Hawaii? Were you raised here. All I am saying is that I'm a proponent of rail. If no rail, then can someone please come up with a solution other than adding more buses. Like I've said before...let's just take one lane of each road and have it dedicated to mass transit. Easy solution, problem solved and we don't have to spend very much money to dedicate those lanes. | 0 | not toxic |
People on Breitbart or World Net Daily telling you that you're right all the time isn't something to brag about.
It was places like the USSR, PRC, North Korea, and the Warsaw Pact nations that had government telling the media what to air and not to air--regardless of facts. That doesn't go on here. In the US, the media outlets decide for themselves what to air. Therefore, your conclusion about the American media being under communist is incorrect. | 0 | not toxic |
Wendy, you still need changes. You are resting your wrists on the hard desk surface to use the crappy little keyboard that is the laptop -- use a regular external keyboard and position it on a keyboard tray. Your arms should be relaxed at your side, at a 90 degree angle as you type. The back of your hands should not be bent up, but straight with your arms. Avoid carpal tunnel. If you use a mouse keep it on the same level as your keyboard. Laptops are convenient, but can cause a multitude of body issues if a person spends hours a day typing (keyboarding).
I am not a fitness/ergonomic expert but speak from personal experience. I started working on a computer (long hours every day) in 1984 and have experienced, and sort of recovered from, carpal tunnel syndrome, neck/shoulder/back/arm pain (tendonitis). | 0 | not toxic |
The cops are for generating revenue. The assembly raised traffic fines and made them civil offenses so a citizen has no right to trial of jury of his or her peers. So the gov becomes the accuser,judge, jury, and
executioner. Our city is crawling with thieves. And cops are fining people for very minor violations on their way to and from work. Is Dick Traini closely related to a spokesman for the police union? I heard he is. We need some cops doing good police work not lurking behind every bush. Crime was down during the last administration with a lot fewer cops. The streets are not plowed. This administration gerrymandered circumvented and disrespected the tax cap and spending cap. Hired lots of cops and gave all public employees raises. How many city agencies do we need? The school budget out of control and they have a hundred million in a slush fund. Teachers and police unions run the show. Spenard road 4 lanes becoming 3 and harder to plow. It's a mess.

Agree with you, Tulsi, on many points mentioned here, especially our unique perspective and life of Aloha in Hawaii, however, I never heard the President say we were at war, with Syria for instance. We have major concerns in that part of the world, and we are providing various types of support regarding our interests, but you are giving the impression that we are doing something illegal militarily. Our goal is to protect our allies and innocent "friendly" neighbors in the region. Giving "them" humanitarian support, technical advisors, and defensive fighting tools does not qualify as "war mongers" trying to dictate our agenda in their country. We will continue to help our international friends to survive the onslaught of evil because that is our "American nature." We are inclusive not divisive, democratic not autocratic, and protective not afraid when it comes to our general character. I love that about America! | 0 | not toxic |

who are being legally classified as independent contractors rather than employees to reduce and/or transfer more of the firm's operating expenses to its labor force.
But the incentives that encourage the retiring owners of small privately-owned (as opposed to publicly-traded) family businesses--who have no successors willing or able to take over and continue the business--to sell the business to its employees might still be useful even in a steady-state economic future.
I think such incentives could also be created to encourage "stakeholder" corporations, i.e. reducing taxes upfront for large absentee-owned businesses (such as most hotels in Hawaii) which agree to gradually transfer ownership to local employees and/or other local stakeholders over a 20-year period (which could also be made conditional upon becoming "triple bottom line" B corporations in the process). | 0 | not toxic |

Dw: The Electoral College issue is fascinating. Sometimes it's great....when it means "our" candidate wins, despite losing the popular vote. Sometimes it's terrible....when it means "our" candidate loses. If there is to be any reasonable discussion of it, that discussion needs to be an abstract one and occur "away" from the context of a specific election. However, at the present time, the EC seems to favor "Red" state America so I doubt if the GOP would be very excited about that discussion. regards, Gary | 0 | not toxic |

As important as it is to help the poor with acts of sharing and charity, it is even MORE important to help people BECOME " poor in spirit " as Matthew records the beatitudes!
. . . "Blessed are the Poor in Spirit" . .
the ones who recognize their total need for a savior,
their total dependence on God for everything -
their spiritual poverty compared to God's infinite spiritual wealth,
their dependence on God even for the graces without which they cannot live a moral life.
The possession of material goods or the lack of material goods is practically insignificant when compared to the importance of being Poor in Spirit!
Becoming poor in spirit will bring about a humble, loving mind set from which many other good deeds will flow, including helping the materially poor.

Many people I know seniors cannot make the distinction between NEEDS and WANTS.
They may need a car but not a lexus or mercedes.

Terrible to watch seniors taking mortgages at 60 on top of their consumer debt.

I agree with your floodplain comment.
The easiest way to reduce flooding issues is to stop building in floodplains. Sure, some of them were developed 100 years ago, and new construction in these areas should be stopped, but many are being developed now and this should be stopped.

Rob,
1. No, I did not write a false equivalent. I wrote that your Godwin-award-deserving words, where you attempted (roll eyes) to paint, as "genocidal", that other view, I wrote that your words were not a compelling rebuttal and you might as well have simply called that other view a torturing of puppies, because those words are every bit as compelling (as in zero compelling) as words you did choose ("a continuation of the self-serving acts of genocidal policy"). It is actually unclear how you managed to imagine (pretend?) a "false equivalency" in there anywhere.
2. In addition to hurling the word "genocidal", you are now hurling the word "racists"! Wow. It didn't take you long to pull out what so many politically correct commentaries consider the atom bomb of their tool kit. But okay, sure, that's a word, so are the words kittens and puppies. Not compelling.

The 2011 arrest of the Bowling Green Al Qaeda operatives (posing as refugees), was the end of an investigation that had started 5 months after Waad Alwan's 2009 arrival. This was why the Obama Administration temporarily shut down immigration from Iraq and 5 other Middle Eastern countries. This incident, chilling in its implications, was reported widely in May, 2011, as a success for the FBI.
I think Trump's executive order would have been able to stand on its merits, if his administration had taken a bit more time on the rollout process and provided avenues for green card holders to continue to gain access to this country. The threat of harm to WA's economy was one of the factors considered in the decision. The Trump executive order was also deemed, by the judge, to not be responding to credible threats. It also would have been more believable if Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, and other countries, implicated in exporting terror, had been part of the order. This was an unforced error. | 0 | not toxic |

In the 2016-17 budget year, that ended March 31, the NDP racked up a deficit of $10.8 billion. That is nearly $300 million more than expected and comes despite the government having resource and investment income more than $3 billion higher than Finance Minister Joe Ceci predicted in his budget in April 2016.
-
Put another way: The New Democrats received income last year from oil, gas and investments that was $3.3 billion higher than they and still they ran a deficit larger than planned.
-
NDP increases in personal and corporate income tax rates actually reduced the amount of tax collected. Personal income tax paid was off eight per cent and corporate taxes off nearly 15 per cent.
-
The NDP theory that if squeezing the golden goose produces more revenue, then wringing its neck will produce even more has proven to be incorrect. When taxes are raised substantially, revenues often fall off as individuals and corporations move investments elsewhere.

Conservatism is the single biggest obstacle to fixing our country's healthcare system, currently to most inefficient in the world. We know how to provide affordable healthcare to every citizen. Most every advanced country in the world has done it with some kind of variation of a single-payer system. But conservatives won't allow it because its "socialism". Never mind that its leaps and bounds better than our current private insurance dominated system, but according to the conservative single-payer is "socialism" so no way no how are we doing that.
All this is further evidence of the abject failure of modern conservatism; the inability of conservatives that once they latch onto something, nothing, not facts, not truth, not irrefutable evidence is ever going to change their thinking. Trickle down economic policy has never, ever worked anywhere in the world but conservatives still cling to it...just like they cling to the epic fail of our private-insurance based healthcare system. | 0 | not toxic |
