Lol my rent is 430$ a month and believe it or not it’s a really nice place in a nice neighborhood. Just gotta find stuff on the western half of the state.

Starting? Isn’t that SOP for Lebanon GOP? They operate by the mantra that “GOP makes right”.
Politics is goofy in any era. At least we still have LebTown trying to report on it.

When I was a kid my dad and I and a few friends would take a 3 day canoeing trip starting in the Juniata and ending up in the Susquehanna. We'd camp on the islands. My dad is long gone now and seeing this brings up this memories.

Hey now! It's my right to shoot myself in the foot as long as it hurts people I don't like! If you don't like it you can move to communist California!!

Look up “Adverse Posession.” It’s the legal term for squatters rights.

Funny how much money they have for domestic terrorism but are always pleading poverty when it comes to paying a living wage.

Have you ever tried to "take some serious initiative" and move out of a dead end town? Just wondering.
Nowdays if you want to move from nowheresville PA to Pittsburgh, like I did a long time ago, you're looking at first and last month's rent and a security deposit usually equal to another month's rent to move in. Median rent in Pittsburgh is $1462 right now.
So over $4k just to move into an apartment, in a place where you have no support network and don't know anyone. That's not even counting moving costs or finding a job.
If jobs in Tamaqua paid well enough to save up that much, you wouldn't need to move to where the jobs are.

Wow, that is very specific, but makes sense why

i was curious what was required for squatters rights in pa, so i looked it up. you would have to be there for 21 years, and during that time, not leave for more than a week stretch, and the neighbors and property owners would have to be notified. and there are a slew of simple things that could make it void, such as the property being posted..
so it would be pretty hard, if not impossible, to pull off. but i wish you well in your journey.

In order to keep the current shitty state of affairs going, Dems have to run the table.
For Rs to win big and fuck everything up for the rest of us, they just have to win big once.
Not a great state of affairs.

It was a generalized statement as the economy and things always do better under democrats,
Also you act like republicans haven't been back to work since 2021....
But yes, blindly voting democrat isn't the solution you still need to vote for the better democrat but it's generally safe to assume in today's society any republican will be worse

> . Money really doesn’t matter in a world where we can print it
The massive money printing of the last two years and subsequent inflation shows the impact of printing trillions. We could cut funding in plenty of other areas, however.

The Democrats aren't doing jack shit, either.
Josh Shapiro is forcing workers back into the office during an ongoing pandemic that's killing around 3500 people a week in the US. People in this state were playing him up like the next FDR. Turns out he's just another cop.

Everyone's making record profits. Cal-Maine Foods owns the big egg brands in our half of the country and they're cleaning up on the current egg prices.

$1600 directly mailed to the working poor was just too much money, though.

6 Dems voted against raising minimum wage. 200+ republicans voted against it.
But tell me again how it's the same??
Foolish.

If you don’t vote republicans there will be nothing to hold the Dems to keep their promises.
Dems will sell you out to the corpos just as fast

Is the test more difficult than it used to be? Did mine in 2003, and I remember it being common sense questions with multiple choice.

I would do a Zillow search cause not only can you search by price range but you will literally be able to see the location and it's surrounding area. Keep in mind the "cheaper areas" are more than likely rundown with not a lot to do, not many jobs, etc. I'd find somewhere cheaper but has potential or close to a decent city.

I jumped to the conclusion this was a school shooting
but it’s a shooting near a school, as the headline said.
