    Honestly, not sure I have the space in my brain to track the political views of companies.

    I hate Taxes....

    I am surprised you found being self employed easier. The hardest part of being a business owner is that what is calculated as profit (and therefore taxable income) and what is actually taken home from the business are not the same.

    I hate Taxes....

    I definitely need to re-evaluate my company structure. Now that I am sole owner and business grown dramatically the last couple years no sure S-corp is serving me well.

    Can we talk dogs?

    Be ready to get wet! When I took my golden puppy out last summer, she ended up in the lake twice. First time truly on accident, second time I am not so sure.

    I don't think I am the only one who would say that hard work does not always equal higher pay. There are a lot of lower wage jobs that require a heck of a lot of hard work and effort. The one other thing that is interesting is that it is largely the market, not government mandates, driving...

    Fact check, federal minimum wage has not been raised in over a decade (July 2009.) But you are very correct that market forces are driving up wages (I see that first hand as a business owner) and that indeed can drive inflation (in the late 70s, early 80s significant inflation was driven in...

    Geopolitics has and always will have a major impact on oil prices and thus gas prices at the pump. The current spikes since the Russian invasion of Ukraine have nothing to do the either of the issues you mention. With a world-traded commodity such as oil, disruptions in production, transport...

    Can we talk dogs?

    It is a trade off as far as ability to meet the communities needs. Quality of life (or lack there of from long hours and always being on call) and lower pay are two of the biggest reasons that rural areas have a very difficult time recruiting vets or the ones that are there burn out. So long as...

    Can we talk dogs?

    Very true, especially in/near metro areas. Besides quality of life issues for the vets and their staff members, other reasons include improved quality of care for the patient. Most things that really do need to be done in the middle of the night need more than an hour or so of care. And in...

    Any Switzerland experts?

    Seem to be areas that are consistently mentioned. Interlaken isn't too far from where we need to be for the concert.

    Any Switzerland experts?

    Later this month I am headed to Switzerland and trying to figure out how to maximize my time there. We land in Geneva on Wednesday about 3:30pm, have a concert to be to in Bienne Friday night and leave from Geneva 8pm on Sunday. If doable, areas recommended to me that have most interest are...

    It will be interesting to see some people here getting use out of them. I was wanting to go similar route to what you are doing, but it is my wife's turn to pick her car so I was out voted.

    What are you listening to?

    Just wait until songs from or even after high school start playing on the "oldies" station! Took that a little hard.

    What are you listening to?

    I have seen Jethro Tull three times previously- Salt Palace. Delta Center and E-Center. Odd none of those are still around, at least by those names. Excited to see them again.
