We have APPLIED HERE signs everywhere around here.

Why not start making UEI persons collecting weekly $$$$$ to present a list of places they applied for jobs at each week.

A lot of states used to have that requirement, NN2N1. Apparently that was raycist or something, though.

#4 I think the economic news of the hour is Janet Yellen saying that unrealized gains (all) should be viewed as capital gains and taxed that way. Give that a moment's thought.

#5 Old Yellen is the same lunatic that wants to track all bank deposits over some trivial figure -- IIRC $300. She is a public menace

We are ruled by morons

#7 Old Yellen's on a mission to kill American capitalism. We're headed for the kind of black market free-for-all that was seen in Yeltsin's Russia ... say, Yellen.. Yeltsin... you don't think ...?

Give it a year. Might be same/same.

I can't think of a single aspect of the financial arena which hasn't been diddled these last 6 months; and watch, the government will declare the solution is more government including COLA stimulus checks to conjure even more money into the system.

I have a little game going on these last 2 months, perhaps someone else has been playing too? The game is this: every place I go into which sells beverages - grocery stores, quick shops - I look to see if single serve ice tea is available, unsweetened or sweetened, the extra sweet/raspberry/lemon etc. less popular flavors don't count.

First success was about 500 miles away, and it was a local brand. Next was an additional 100 miles out and off-broadway for a name brand.

#9 #8 True. Pepsi and Coke having major problems. I asked sales rep if supplies would improve mid month and he said towards end of month. End of month I reminded him of his guesstimate. He replied No!, I didn't say that.

#10 Well, I quit buying Pepsi products when Idiot Nooyi was their CEO and I dropped Coke when they got woke. I simply dare you to find RC Cola minis anywhere.
