Panic buying of gas and price gouging
by mynameislame inthe news had mentioned how some stations were charging over $6 a gallon for gas.
they also brought up that the government had promised to come down hard on anyone that was price gouging.. my question is, is it possible to price gouge when there isn't an actual emergency?.
i think there are some benefits to raising prices even in an emergency.

Can't wait for the yahoos buying dozens or hundreds of gallons, and storing them in literal, I kid you not, plastic bags, to start blowing themselves up.
It can't happen soon enough. Darwin hasn't been so busy since the lock-downs.

Let them do it, then use a military blockade to ensure they are "self-sufficient". See how long they last.

why they believe that is now Russia as the King of the North ?
Because Russia is "persecuting" JW's. Funny that if the KOTN attacks the KOTS then would that not mean that the WTB&T$ is the KOTS who also is destroyed? Just asking. Not that it means a thing to me anymore.

@DJW
Multiple postings of the same thing does not make it true.
Polls can say anything they want to promote an agenda. Remember the old saying, "Figures lie,and liars figure."

I heard, second hand, about the begging for travel trailers too. The list of requirements they have in order to consider them worthy of
stealingaccepting from the members sounds an awful lot like they would appreciate the "widows mite". -

$15.00 minimum wage
by hoser inwhile we are talking about economic stimulus i thought i’d bring up the $15 minimum wage.
pros and cons?.

If we had a minimum wage of $150/hr, then we would all be a wealthy as lawyers, right?
LOL, except the lawyers would then be charging hourly fees ten times higher than they are now, so we would have to increase the minimum wage to $1,500.00 per hour to keep up.

I am not in favor of it. Minimum wage should be at least $150.00 per hour. After all THAT would be ten times better, wouldn't it?
Liberal "logic" 101.

As long as the government has OPM to throw around, sure. Right now people can make more money sitting home on their vertical crack collecting government hand-outs than working. Like DoC said, "Gotta buys those votes."
When government starts throwing around numbers they should have to write the numbers out with numerals, not letters. People just might wake up to the size of "free" money government is flapping their gums about.
Two trillion does not look like as much as $2,000,000,000,000.00, especially to some poor schmuck making only $7.25 per hour.

new series "The Good News According to Jesus"
by neat blue dog inthis concept was leaked here not too long ago, and it was just announced at the next section of the 'annual meeting' on jw broadcasting.
they allude to it being a half hour series and say that it will cover literally every detail in all four gospels in chronological order through the course of all episodes.
they also insinuate that it's the most ambitious project yet (i guess making use of that new media production facility).

What is wrong with books? Who needs video?
Exactly. I can remember what I READ more accurately and longer than what I watch. It reminds me of the late, great news commentator Paul Harvey who contrasted radio and TV by saying, "We do not remember what Confucius LOOKED like, but rather what he SAID." It is the same principle with reading compared to watching.
