Using gas prices as a barometer of prices has always been misleading. Electric cars will save us from this lazy analysis.
I wonder if politicians lied about how low whale blubber prices were before gas became the primary fuel choice.

In Alabama, incarcerated workers in a work-release program must take jobs at private companies—but 40% of their wages are docked as a “labor-trafficking fee.” A lawsuit brought by incarcerated people argues this is a modern form of convict leasing.

They can just ignore court orders if they don' like the judge and go on TV to brag about it and nothing happens.
They used to pretend (I didnt know, no one told me, the plane was already leaving etc) - they dont even need to do that anymore.

LSU is paying its previous football coach over $50 million NOT to coach there while likely guaranteeing Kiffin something approaching double that, all while having an academic hiring freeze and budget cuts across the board. What is the purpose of a university (rhetorical)?
SOURCES: Lane Kiffin is expected to accept LSU's offer to become the Tigers next head coach. Kiffin is set to meet with his Ole Miss team this morning at 9 AM CT. As we reported yesterday morning, LSU has been very confident it was going to land Kiffin. www.nytimes.com/athletic/684...

A Maine woman retired early to be a caregiver for her terminally ill mother.
Now she’s facing cancer herself, and because ACA subsidies won’t be extended, she is losing her healthcare.
Her costs are going up for $49,000 a year.
This isn’t healthcare, it’s eugenics.

The U.S. has the highest incarceration rate of any independent democracy on Earth, making it a leader in mass incarceration.
