[quote=donaldduckmoore]We need water but we have plenty of sun. Why can’t we build more desalinization plants using solar energy? We are surrounded by water why can’t we make good use of it. It seems the way to go.

creechrrParticipantHi,
I live in PQ and occassionally cruise through San Lorenza. The Intuit pressence seems to be minimal. In fact, it seems like most of that office complex is empty. The parking structure seems to be hardly in use. And, with everyone cutting back Intuit may leave the area.
The neighborhood seems to be quiet. There’s no reason to drive up Torrey Santa Fe unless you live in the area as there isn’t another means of exiting.
The Albertson’s across the 56 is my favorite place to pick up groceries besides Costco and having gas station at the entrance/exit of the neighborhood is very convenient.

creechrrParticipant[quote=patientrenter]Israel would not have gone ahead without getting the check for this arranged in advance. The rest of us are just getting the delayed version of the announcement. It’s smart timing. With new announcements of domestic programs going out at a rate of hundreds of billions a week, this will be dismissed as a nothing.[/quote]
Noam Chomsky has written about these tactics. We’re all just pawns.

It’s good to work for the government, No social security tax’s (why pay SS when you are working so hard to steal all the SS money for your pension due’s !!!).
Yes life is good for government workers…

There are essentially two federal retirement systems,CSRS and FERS. CSRS is the old retirement system (pre-1984, I think). People under this system had the option of paying into SS or not. If they didn’t pay into the system they can’t collect at retirement age. There are still a fair amount of people under this sytem that are still working today.
FERS is what any new hires would be getting into today. There’s no option to forego SS, so I’m paying the supplemental retirement income of many but, I’ll probably never see a dime myself. There is a Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) much like a 401K and a pension.
I don’t know where the 6% increases are. I haven’t seen one.
Federal employment has its good and bad much like any large organization. Some of the stereotypes are of Federal employees aren’t too far off but, there are far more that are hard working and dilegent. (Atleast, until they get beaten down by the system and give up….lol) But, that’s not much different than any other place that I have been employed.
Any other Federal employees here?
