What should I be looking at?
Your numbers show real median weekly earnings at $367 in Q1 2020 and $365 in Q2 2023. That's essentially the same. Me saying that's essentially...
Yeah I'm looking at the increase in the CPI between Jan 2020 and now vs the increase in the average wage between Jan 2020 and now. The average...
And I'm looking at pre-pandemic to now. People are actually better off now than they were in Jan 2020 according to BLS numbers.
Yeah what's going on on the right with Trump and the election lie is a much bigger threat to our democracy than a small percentage of people...
Per BLS numbers wages have risen more than prices between Jan 2020 and July 2023.
91% of a somewhat left leaning board answered 'no'. And you think that means we're becoming a totalitarian state? Meanwhile a large majority...

To answer my own question, it probably has more to do with filling the SS spot in Durham that Basabe had been playing than getting Williams ready...
Wow. I just noticed the Rays jumped Carson Williams from Bowling Green to Durham today. Played for the Bulls tonight and went 1 for 3. That's a...

If 3 were the new number, that would be ok. I don't agree with the Fed doggedly raising interest rates until we get back down to 2. There's no...
That's 3 TJs for the starting rotation this season. And the Rays are stocked with good position players throughout the system, but suddenly seem...
I lived in Durham for about 5 years back in the 90s and we went to a number of games at the old park (the one in Bull Durham) and then a couple at...
I really like Basabe. Been following him in the Rays system for a couple of years. I'd been following Franco in the system since he was 16....
He won't lose his career if she was of age, but he might lose some endorsement money. I'm just tired of men behaving badly and being selfish. My...
Sorry, I just don't have a ton of sympathy for guys who fool around on their wives. If she was 19 then he will face no legal punishment.
He's married and has 2 kids. So even if it turns out that he was just messing around with a 19 year old, he's the one who put himself in the...
I don't think an insurance company trying to get out of paying benefits indicates a lack of common sense. It indicates that they are an insurance...
Some people are losing their minds over this stuff.
