It is the politically correct way of saying " we do not answer to peasants" We fucked you for life and you need to get over it.

Environmental and unions would make this cost prohibative as soon as it was proposed by anyone. The legal fees would be in the high 100s of millions. Then the unions would demand labor cost of 125 per hour or more. You have to add in all the perks with the wages. You are likely talking 5-7 million per mile at a minimum.

Reply to Can an employer change original hourly wage when adding mandatory overtime to avoid paying overtime? by hellorubydoo
If they lower your pay. You can collect unemployment in many cases. It depend on the contract. Talk to a lawyer. They cannot lower your wage without permission. This is bullshit what they are doing.

The police have a habit of lying. I have not said anything yet they claim I said a bunch of shit. That is why you need a lawyer. Never trust a policeman when he is working the job.

Then why was it used for people I know. They were denied mediaid because of the household income. Same with food stamps and other services.

The household income is used to determine eligibility. So what he earns does matter if they live together. The majority of insurance carriers cover the live in partner if the mother of his child. You put them on the family plan as one of the dependants.

The rates went up 30-50 percent. I never had a bill over 100. December changed that, it was 179.

Reply to comment by Haroflolpter in Can someone from the borough remove the cover from your car to take pictures of it in PA? by Haroflolpter
Local police will side with the code officer. He is one of them. I have other experiences with the ones near me. I went to court over plants and flowers. They thought my plants were weeds. In court, my receipts and pictures of the plants proved otherwise. Like I said, they are dicks.
They measure the length of my grass a few times each year and check other shit since then. I have video outside. I catch them hopping my fence a few times a year. They lose on those cases too.

That happpens a lot in Pa. The code officers are dicks. They interupt the law their own way. They do the same in every community near me. A friend has a fenced in yard. They went on people's porches to take pictures and try and fine him. The problem was they could not get shots of the plates or windshield.
His brother is a state trooper. He let his brother deal with the assholes. I know they left him alone afterward.

Check with a local state rep. They help with stupid government shit. They have phone numbers that go through. They will talk to someone and find out the problem and help get it resolved.

Reply to comment by Riverrun221 in What is the healthcare system like here for those with Medicaid ? And how are mental health services? by Riverrun221
Bring your records. It will help you get your meds and services fast. In Pa. a lot of family doctors will write meds if you have the records to prove you take them. This will give you time to secure specialists in the field of health. My wife needed psych care. It took her 10-14 days to get to see a doctor, the counseling took about 3 weeks.
In cities, you will find a larger pool of providers. In rural areas, there are fewer but they tend to be less overburdened with a large number of clients. In either case, it takes about 2 weeks.
I suggest getting your provider to give you a 2-3 month supply of medications to be safe. In Pa, someone leaving for an extended period can get a 3-month supply. Plus having a script with refills is an option. I had meds refilled out of state while traveling. It does take a day or two but can be done.
I can see similarities between Pa and Cali in healthcare. Both states have a lot of universities with medical specialties. I live in the suburbs and doctors and other healthcare services have taken over strip malls or shopping centers. Some have taken over former grocery stores or bowling lanes.

A lot of rural areas have mental health services. They do lack hospitals though.

People that lived here their entire life fail to see what they have. We have services some travel 100s or 1000s of miles to obtain. In some areas, a hospital may be a little bit of a drive. But you can find most services close to home.

I wonder where they would eat if they leave a bigger city in a blue state. Drive 20-25 miles out of Pittsburgh it is Republican. The same is true in New York and Ohio. Once you leave the bigger cities it is conservatives.

Reply to Question about transferring a vehicle title to the buyer by Dr_Killinger_00
You need to take the title to a notary. You give a bill of sale to someone. They never tranfer the title and are involved in a accident. It is your car and you may be liable. Always use a notary when selling any vehicle for your protection.
The only exception is when junking a car. Who ever takes it needs to sign the title and you do also. The title has a place for this purpose. Take a pictue for your records to protect yourself.
There are people that will buy a car and never transfer the title. Under the law you are the owner. I suggest having proof of the sale or using a notary for your protection.
