It sounds like the business model is changing.

pilot program that is intended to help fleet owners attract more drivers; the program allows drivers to pay a percentage of their earnings during a shift to lease the cab, in lieu of a flat fee up front that puts drivers under pressure and leaves them in the hole if they do not earn enough back.

“As far as the congressman and other irresponsible members of congress are concerned, they have the luxury of saying what they want as they do nothing and have almost no responsibility,” Kelly said. “They can call people liars but it would be inappropriate for me to say the same thing back at them.  As my blessed mother used to say ‘empty barrels make the most noise.'”

Yes Congress you should do something.

Here is a good read https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-09-09/china-to-ban-sale-of-fossil-fuel-cars-in-electric-vehicle-push#ampshare=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-09-09/china-to-ban-sale-of-fossil-fuel-cars-in-electric-vehicle-push about 3 countries banning a choice of vehicles.

I’m glad that just maybe, JUST MAYBE the United States of America not being in Paris Accords might be a good thing.

America will decide what is best for the people of America.

THE BEST YET, Consumers will chose what they think is best for themselves.

I’m not married & I’m not having a baby with anyone this year. Well the baby part, still plenty of good #marrying days left.

Let me point out two things about this article – https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-08-31/trump-health-department-is-said-to-slash-obamacare-ad-budget

similar to other insurance pools, are designed around the idea that healthy people’s premiums help subsidize the sick. Advertising helps attract those healthy people

That’s hilarious. No healthy people don’t sign up for more insurance they don’t need. Nobody gets FULL coverage on a 25 year old car, even though they are classic according to Nebraska law.

The Trump administration, however, withdrew about $5 million of ads at the end of the 2017 sign-up period, which likely contributed to the enrollment decline.

NOW, I questing this without clicking the link. BUT Donald J Trump wasn’t President until Jan 20th, 2017.

The enrollment period ended 01/31/2017, yes I RTA.

Now let’s look at the other program they are making cuts to “navigator”. It enrolled 81,426 people at a cost of $62,500,000.

That’s $767.57 per person.

More math.

Last year there was $100,000,000 on advertising & 12,200,000 people enrolled that’s $8.20 per person.

I say the navigator program is ineffective & should be cut even more. Let’s be generous & say it can be $15 per person, based on last year’s number that would be $1,221,390.

I just saved the Government $369,036,10

How bad do you want it?

Will I remove this tag?
