Yeah this went down hill fast.  Was supposed to be about exchange of information about loss of income and how to remedy it.

Yes it was. Til the "everybody can make it if they try hard none sense came in".

Texas has more debt than what? Again, in general states that have supply side economics (lower taxes, less government support) are less likely to have better debt to gdp ratios. Texas is an exception for a very specific reason which is about to crash now. They are very dependent on consumer tax. No tax on wages. So there will be a double hit to them. Texas has performed well because they have given great tax breaks to corporations which has bought in jobs, and they have a huge service base economic sector. Furthermore look at states that have strong supply side policies, Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Kentucky until recently, Tennessee all are at the bottom of the debt list AND with very little safety net. So Texas is the beacon on the hill for so called conservatives now, but history says it wont last. 

So Texas is doing fine.  You scared me for a second.  Thanks.

I was simply using an example. Not dicing the country into little groups. 

The entire premise of your post was to put different states into different groups.  But I’m glad you came to your senses.

My post was to point out being good at a job was not enough and there is a down side to capitalism as a rebuttal. Prior to my post there were statements about "serfs" , "If you dont have a good job then you simple are taking advantage of the american dream", "they said you would have a job about nursing", so on and so on, but for some reason you wanna try to call me out about "dicing up the country". It started waaay before I posted. Seems like you are butt hurt about something I stated. Sorry if the truth hurts... well so be it.

Let the businesses fail, this is ridiculous that we have to bail out companies who are paying their CEOs an average pay of 271-1 worker ratio.  You're telling me these "genius CEOS" who are worth 271 times the average worker's pay can't figure out how to save enough money for a 2 month shutdown without crying for bailouts?  

You must work at a bank.  Sounds really familiar.  It is totally disgusting the greed at work in these companies.

Today, Governor Roy Cooper announced that the first payments for the unemployment claims related to coronavirus will begin going out this week. 

Quote

The Division of Employment of Security expects to receive guidance from the federal government later this week about how to implement the changes, including the change that allows for an additional $600 in unemployment benefits. The state expects those payments to begin approximately two weeks after that guidance is provided.

People should be glad Roy Cooper got the reins over Mr. “You don’t have to wash your hands”

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
