The people elected Fettermen... a man suffering from the effects of stroke and other debilitating conditions over the grifter Oz... That says more about Oz than Fetterman...

It's not about wanting a utopia. It's about wanting someone who will represent Pennsylvania and not put their own political needs above the needs of the state. Oz doesn't even live in PA. He's a New Jersey transplant who wanted to use PA as a stepping stone to his political career. He didn't give a flying fuck about this state.

Definitely depends on which part of central PA. I've lived in Harrisburg for years and oh boy... is that BUSY BODY CENTRAL. It's pretty much everyone's hobby to be in everyone's business. Now I live in Lancaster and folks tend to stick to themselves. I don't even know half my neighbors and I'm totally fine with that. It's ironic though, because I've also lived in the subrubs of Philly and people kept to themselves there as well. I think Harrisburg is just such a boring city that getting into people's business and being nosy is the only excitement they have.

Seconding Progressive. Me and my girlfriend both go through Progressive. They gave us the fairest prices by far and the bonus stuff (like the loyalty programs) are actually legit. It’s not just marketing crap. I used to have Geico and they supposedly had loyalty programs as well, but it never seemed concrete and it never seemed like I was really benefiting from remaining with them for long.

Yeah, they used to be really good, but the prices are just way too high now. I got my 2017 Jeep Renegade through Carvana after trading in my 2012 Mustang GT. Carvana are the only ones who would give me a fair deal after going to at least 10 other dealerships. But now the prices are just ridiculous. I’m glad I bought from them when I did, because now I wouldn’t even consider it.

Woooow... who in the fuck can endorse this kind of stuff? Okay, so what if you have an issue with SNAP, but now even the food pantries are going to have less supplies??? Those agencies are important! They often provide disaster relief. So what happens if a storm rolls through PA and folks can't get food?

Also, on another note, who is responsible for gutting these programs? I need specifics so I know who to [Removed by Reddit].

I took the test back in 07 and passed first try. Many of the questions were stupid easy. Stuff like “what do you do at a stop sign?”. A few questions may try and trip you up like all tests. For example, “who has the right of way at a green traffic light (answer: Almost anyone going straight. Folks turning from the left have to yield to oncoming traffic. Folks turning right on red can do so unless otherwise stated but yield to oncoming traffic.). That is the extent of questions that call for actual thinking, if I remember. The test might be more challenging now, but I taught my girlfriend how to drive 2 years ago and based off the driving test (which hasn’t changed), I’m willing to bet the permit test is still easy.

Study all the chapters and you’ll be fine. Good luck! Use the aforementioned apps as well.
