Can someone please explain how this 'back pay' issue always arises and what exactly it is? Is it that government hasn't paid people a salary over a certain period? Or is it that govt hasn't paid the increases in salaries promised - and the difference remains outstanding? Or is it that new hires haven't gotten paid since started working?
I just don't see how an entity cannot pay was is due for years at a time.

We do seriously need to consider this as an option. Once our debt gets too high we will end up begging - where now we can at least negotiate.

'Crawl' gives the impression that they are very young children who don't know better. I believe 'scamper' would be more appropriate - like rats nosing around looking for anything they can run off with.

Now that fuel prices are going down I guess the bus drivers will be asking for fares to be reduced to ease the burden on the public??

I believe the first version of the story said that some golfers discovered the body.

Every time I play there I see children swimming in the ponds. There are always a few of them at any given time so I'm pretty confident that the other children that frequent the pond know who this child is.

I would like to hear how many of the people catching covid now are fully vaccinated. In my immediate sphere of contacts almost everyone has caught covid recently and ALL of them have received the vaccine - and in a few cases the booster as well.
I got the J&J jab and have never gotten covid and I never where a mask - unless the store insists on one.

Correct! We should just say Government from now on as party really doesn't make a damned bit of difference.

I take is you're close with Scumdom because you sure are confident that he speaks the truth about not being nearby the killing?

Still no reports? Mother must be traveling. I was going to say 'parents' but I had to correct that because we know the daddy doesn't even know what his kid looks like.
