Depends. What do you have in mind? As long as it doesn't get too political it should survive.

No mam but I've seen this type question in the past and I am giving the pat answer.

 

[Carpenter2n]

:lol: , does that mean you are a mod?
I didn't have anything specific in mind. But the Epstein theories are interesting and of course there were two horrific mass shootings this past week.
I have noticed a distinct lack of current events being discussed and wondered if I missed a memo disallowing it.
Where is everyone??

Dont misspell anything, and you will be fine, we already have an interpreter for that.

A corrections officer...

Go for it.
Keep it civil.

No, not a correction officer, someone that's high above us.

Kinda interesting when food processing plants are raided and they arrest 5 to 6 hundred people and then we find out only a very small percentage are illegal. Also with the unemployment being so low then some people will have to fill these jobs. Read somewhere that the average salary for these workers is around $27000 annual. Need to come up with a plan to make the illegals legal for a short period of time to fill these jobs. Like maybe a permit to work.

Thats $13.00/hr for a low skill job. Seems reasonable

How many times are we going to hear how we have schooled Kim Jong Un on diplomacy only to discover that North Korea has advanced its nuclear capabilities since negotiations began? About all they have done is make Kim Jong Un a sort of David and Goliath story. They need to stop celebrating victory until something is accomplished. Much the same can be said of the Trade agreement with China.
