Actually, it does. Since uninsured illegals use public hospitals, public
defenders, etc., doctors and lawyers and other professionals have to do a lot of
pro bono and/or low-compensation work that uses up time they could otherwise
devote to higher-paid work.

Perhaps in the area of unskilled labor, but that's about all. A
significant pool to be sure, but not as critical to the overall
economic picture as some would have us believe. Every job in this
country has a market clearing price, which can vary considerably
depending on where it is. Employers who want to stay in business
can't pay more than that, and employees who want to keep their jobs
better not expect more than that. Unless you have some sort of hard
to find technical or professional skill set, that these illegals
simply don't possess, telling your boss you're going somewhere else if
you don't get a raise will result in unemployment. Doesn't have
anything to do, in my opinion, with their status.

Regards,
Sarge

I never said it was black and white, I said everyone is affected to a
*degree* depending on how close they are to the job market that the illegals
work. Lawyers are so distant that the effect is not noticable, obviously.
Farmworkers are affected more than anyone else because they are right in the
labor market affected. Those are the two ends of the spectrum. Everyone in
between is affected more or less depending on where they are in the market.
You cant take a section of the labor market away without affecting the rest
of the labor market.

Pity about the teachers that have to teach their brats etc.

And the cops who get to deal with their crime, etc etc etc.

And the border guards, immigration paper shufflers etc etc etc.

That para of yours now at the top is just that.

And that is just plain wrong, as I rubbed your nose in.

Pity about cops, teachers, govt employees that deal with immigrants,
most obviously with those dealing with foreigners at airports, etc etc etc.

Yes, SOME are affected, most obviously with the dregs of the labor market, as I said.

The problem is your silly claim that EVERYONE THAT WORKS FOR A LIVING is affected.
That is just plain wrong, hordes of them arent affected at all in the wages they get most
obviously with the bulk of the professions and even those like teachers and cops.

Wrong, hordes dont have their wages affected at all, most obviously with teachers and cops.

> You cant take a section of the labor market away without affecting the rest of the labor market.

Wrong again. And no section of the labor market is taken away either.

There ain't no way OG (paul,alpha,T.rivet,none,harryB,letoll) is going
to front for all those ingredients. Chances are he has his kids fill
their pockets with ketchup from the fast food restaurant after three
refills in the thermos at the self-service drink counter. The Liquid
Smoke and Woorcestershire alone would break his budget, which I remind
all is 50¢ per meal. But good luck. I like the concept. If the amount
of the expensive components can be kept low enough, it might only cost
a bit more than the store bought and be what he wants.

Combine 1-1/4c ketchup (small bottle), 1c vinegar, 1/4c brown sugar,
1/4c honey, 1/3c oil, 3 minced/crushed cloves garlic, 2t salt. Simmer
over low heat for 30 min.

(I think this has more sugar than the original recipe, because my
husband prefers a sweet sauce.)

Running along the same lines... I used to save about $1 during lunch
when I was a starving student at the campus cafeteria by getting the
"lightest" salad ingredients (different types of lettuce, spinach,
mushrooms) and then making my own Thousand Island dressing with the
free catsup, mayonnaise and pickle relish packets from the condiment
stand, mixing into a small foam coffee cup. :)

Additionally, when I started working the company cafeteria would
charge .75¢ for a spoon of brown sugar in your oatmeal or cream of
wheat....but had the unrefined "raw" sugar (almost brown) on the
condiment stand for free. Every nickel and dime adds up, eventually.

You had a problem. They came out and saw that it got resolved, even if
they personally did not free the shifter.
Enterprise is not responsible for reading your American Express
contract for you. They pointed out a potential benefit to their
insurance. So they did not affirm what AMEX MIGHT pay. It's simply not
their job. It's yours.

Good idea, but we have a grey fox that I've seen slinking out back,
and some wandering dogs, and the sounds of coyotes some nights. For
now, a single pest-proof coop that is visible from the house will be
the priority. The garden is up and on the other side of the road.

Business is down and money being tight, I'm getting real tightwaddy.

If I dare take the cargo trailer into Huntsville, that could be a
possibility. It has been set aside for the most of the winter. I
just hooked it up to find a replacement for the lawn tractor, but
prices were high for relatively cheaply built Murray mowers. Ended up
getting a used motor for $100, and waiting for the right tractor
deal.* Now wish me luck on hooking it up.

I know what I would like, but can't afford, even used. A Kubota BX23.
Perfect for the digging I have left to do and setting corner posts for
the fences.

Mrs. Chickpea has been staying in the pod for the past few months as
well, now that her master gardener course is over and money is
tighter. I've had to hit Harbor Freight a couple of times, and we've
picked some stuff up at the Publix, but other than that both been
homebodies. With the garden needing to be started, and getting the
winter creaks out of the bones, we'll see.

Hey everyone,

I have been trying to clean the inside of my car for a couple of days
now between work hours. The carpet is the worst part seeing there is a
lot of dirt spots that I just can't get out. I tried everything,
(Cleansers, Spot Removers, Shampoo). I am more concered about the
seats tho, I read from another board saying I should use some shampoo
and mix with some water and use a wash mitt to apply it on. Well one
seat actually came out pretty good, but the annoyance I am having is
with wet spots that show up after its dried. I don't want to keep
applying soap or chemicals to it and damage it.

Any advice would be helpful.

Is there a list of basic items that are at least re-usable in the long
term or short term in helping to reduce the amount of waste generated
by office groups. Should there be specific consumer items to buy that
may help me in this. We were looking at degradable cups and

I'd be interested to see how much flexibility develops with HSAs. I
think health insurance will be the next big thing to squeeze the
consumer's buying power in this country.
