Amazing what a little competition pressure can accomplish.


Meanwhile, as the economy continues to improve, the stock market sets
records almost every day, companies are raising wages and paying
bonuses, the progressive liberals continue with:

"Russia, Russia, Russia", "Resist, Resist, Resist", "Impeach, Impeach,
Impeach".

At some point they are going to have to accept the fact that despite
his strange ways,* Trump and is policies are having a very positive
affect on the country.




Competition? Eh?

The average residential electric customer might see a tax drop of $2 to
$3 a month...which likely will be more than offset by increases in
electric rates.



A *tax* drop? No Harry, it's a price (rate) drop.

Our electric supplier (Eversource) had announced a rate increase last
year to take effect this month. They just announced that the increase
is cancelled and a rate *decrease* will be instituted instead.


After the WalMart news this morning, I noticed as I was going in to Safeway a help wanted sign. Said
starting salary was "$8.25-$9.25/hour". After watching some MSNBC anti-WalMart bull**** about their
low wages, I was surprised no one has commented on Safeway's low wages. Maybe 'cause it's a union
shop?
