You said it. Poorly thought out plan. Hopefully guidance will be given soon, so employers will know how to proceed, and citizens will know what to expect.

You have to do what you think is best, and no one will think any less of that personal decision. I don’t know how your health is, but you graduated from Lumberton a year after my daughter did. You probably know her. She and my son in law, both young and healthy, contracted COVID and were over it about 3 weeks ago. She’s almost 6 months pregnant and both she and her unborn baby as well as her husband are just fine. Good luck with making your decision. Whatever you decide is the right one.

First and foremost, condolences and prayers to you and her family and friends. Know that she is in complete peace and will never suffer again. Dear Lord we pray that You comfort the family and remind them that You alone have the power to give everlasting life through Your Son, Jesus Christ. It is in His name that we pray. Amen.

Honestly though, if you read the entire transcript, it seems little more than funny locker room talk. For instance, I have a good friend who I always tell him about wanting to do his mom. I still tell him that. She’s 78! I’m just talking junk to him. It’s all in fun. Regardless of all that, I don’t care about Trump or Kamala’s sexcapades. I just know she and Biden are bad for the country.

Probably so. There was no such thing as AIDS as far as we knew when I was a young teen.

Lmao. Exactly. That’s why I started the flipping subject.

Who knows. With his & her reputation, he might grab hers and she can be his VP!

I’m not rich either. I’m just saying that growing up going to parties, that kinda stuff happened pretty regular. Both ways too! You didn’t answer though. Lol. I asked if you ever did it. Not did you get caught...

You honestly trying to tell me you’ve never done it? Lol. 😳

They need to issue guidance. Questions I have: If it’s not forgiven, how can the employer recoup the money to pay it back? What if the employee no longer works for the employer, does the employer just get left holding the bag? Big companies that use payroll software...how long will it take for them to adapt their payroll software to accommodate the order? Can an employer “opt out” of doing it? Does it apply to all wages (including bonuses)? Are there any exclusions other than you can’t make more than $4000 every 2 weeks pre-tax? How does your non-taxable 401(k) deduction affect this? How does this help unemployeds who really need some help (no job, no payroll tax deferment). There’s plenty more, but that’s a start. I don’t think this was well thought out, as I have said.

Just to give perspective, how does it help self-employeds the most? It’s my understanding that only the 6.2% from the employee is subject. Even for self-employeds, the employer match would still have to be submitted.

So, either no one knows anything about this to have any feelings, or can’t figure it out or just don’t care. I’m sure there will be the opportunity in this discussion to villainize one party or the other. We can even bring racism or sexism into it. So come on in and relax. Whatcha think?

Anyone have any feelings on this? I’m not really on board with it. It’s very ambiguous, and I’m not sure how the mechanics of it would work. Any thoughts, ideas, solutions?

Good Lord I wish I could give 1000000 likes.

That’s spelled dark whore. And she’s really kind of light skinded if you ask me.

They complement each other well? Lol. True. He is an incoherent old white guy that doesn’t make any sense, sexually harasses women that don’t want his affections and keeps locked up in his basement. She is a well spoken, younger, mixed Jamaican/Asian Indian (black) woman who can communicate clearly, throws her junk around to whomever can pump her up the ladder and her party is not afraid to let her speak in public. Freakin Ebony & Ivory! I can hear Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney in the background. What a well-balanced pair! Honestly, the fact that she’s not the candidate for prez and Biden as HER VP, is racist and sexist. Although she sucks (no inference to her closed door sessions with men of power) as a choice, she’s better than Biden could ever hope to be. Their end game is dangerous: Socialist, Marxist, Communist, Progressive, call it what you will. It is the antithesis of the foundation of our great country and the downfall of our social and economic society. Trump 2020

She’s not African-American, but she’s black due to her father’s Jamaican heritage. Sometimes the terms black and African-American are incorrectly used interchangeably. She will definitely use this to her advantage. She would be stupid not to. I don’t care if she’s a man, woman, black, white, LGBTQ, alien, Bigfoot (I could keep going), she’s a far left candidate that could very easily become president if Joe Biden is elected. I don’t like either of them or what they want to do with our United States. On that note: Trump 2020

I honestly don’t think sleeping your way to the top is a big deal. It’s what you do with it when you get there. She ain’t the one in my book. But none of the leading Democrats are. Honestly, it doesn’t matter who they pick, it’ll be a bad pick. It’s like trying to figure out which pile of horse crap you want to eat. It’s all crap. Trump 2020

I’m not supporting Trump, I’m voting against Biden and his party’s new-found extreme left principles. I don’t care about her sex life either. She a Ho no matter how you dice it up, and I don’t mean sexually. A vote for Trump is a vote against Biden. Trump 2020

Exactly what I was thinking. Lmao.

Yep. I know some can go quicker. My wife has been tested 3 different times in Beaumont. All were negative thank goodness. Quickest was 7 days. That was just 3 weeks ago. Had strep. No COVID.

Dang! Those freakin tests can take a week too!

Lol. No dissing. I love Dragnet.

You’re assuming that folks in Evadale and West Hardin have TV’s. I think a lot of them still sit around the radio at night listening to Dragnet.

Lumberton started today.
