This is America, where the rich get whatever they want and the rest of us can shut up and enjoy the beautifully hand-crafted propaganda that makes older people afraid of change. Obviously. Stop worrying about whether or not you are being completely fucked over every single day and go worry about what children playing sports have in their pants instead like a good little American.

How expensive do you think a day pass is? I honestly can not see how the people thinking it beach access is unattainable are arguing in anything other than bad faith, my family still went to Sea Girt multiple times a week when we were on food stamps.

It's captions like this, attached to serious events, that make me think that we just don't give a shit anymore about reality. God that article was terrible, too. It's like 5 disjointed lines

Yeah but they don't protest when the apartheid and fascism benefits them.

Then that’s not selling for 400k, that’s 400k + extra labor

The Human Fund, the Alan Parsons Project, and the Marshall Plan are all good.

That’s a great one, I’ve used their services myself and it really is a wonderful and much needed resource.

Israel has been a fascist and apartheid state since its inception.

The same page did a feature on a Hechinger in Harrisburg, PA last week.

Something else I like is to ensure an economic safety net for all New Jersey citizens, by raising funds from a carbon, inheritance, and data tax to add on to the dividends I’ve previously mentioned. Lots of academics agree that all of these are useful and meaningful taxes to fund dividends to ensure the population has enough funds to best adapt to changing environmental and economic environments.

On South Park they said a snake was harmless. Then it ate a man in like 3 seconds and shat out the skeleton. So…be careful

It’s ridiculous for the municipalities to charge you to get into the beach . Your paying tolls to get there, spending money in whatever town you’re in , paying for parking , etc. sadly it’s out of control. There needs to be some reform .

Getting rid of the outdated law would not only raise plenty of revenue in taxes for the county (which I think is much needed and could be utilized for road/infrastructure repairs and other crucial improvements) but would also help county residents save precious time. Why should we drive miles and miles to other counties, raise their revenues if we have stores near by? Driving to other counties for shopping creates unnecessary traffic and congestion beyond belief in malls. Have any of you experienced circling the mall's parking lot for half an hour to secure a parking spot, waiting 30 minutes in line to get a burger in the food court and prayed that you and your family is lucky enough to find a sit to eat? And that's all on a Sunday, one of the only two (for the lucky ones who actually get two days off) free days we get in a week, to run our errands, and buy clothes, appliances or other necessities, take kids to swim or karate classes, attend birthday parties or family functions...We are wasting precious times in traffic and lines because our county's stores are closed.

My mom's bathroom wastebasket still has a Rickel price sticker on it. I always laugh when I see it thinking about how old that thing must be.
