Most of them. They replace it with nonsense about immortality in some wonderful place that’s totally made-up, where they’ll be reunited with dead friends and family.

Killingworth should be near the top of the list. I no longer live there, but I miss it every day.

At least in this country (USA) this is not the case.

Hilarious!

My local True Value hardware store will notarize documents for free.

Anyone who's had it knows that they should be required to call it "pizza", in quotes.

I switched from Comcast to Frontier fiber a month ago.

I do miss not having cable TV but the fiber service has been rock solid and it was very satisfying to tell Comcast that they'd never see another penny of my money.

Yes, you can subscribe to various services to stream TV over the Internet but they're all way too expensive for how little TV I watch.

Someone has to know and identify these morons.

Please!

To "look at this objectively" you need to be aware of the facts. Someone who receives death threats that force them to move SEVEN TIMES, isn't able to pursue a career and earn a regular living.

Regardless, the issue is that Jones knowingly and intentionally caused them harm. Jones isn't entitled to profit off of it, any more than bank robbers should be able to keep their loot.

> him saying what he did, didn’t make the families he spoke about lose their ability to live.

Wow. Some of the families (whose children were murdered!) had to move multiple times because Jones’ listeners were making death threats against them, because Jones fed them lies that incited anger.

I can’t imagined why you’re more concerned about Jones’ family than the innocent families that Jones deliberately hurt.

> Can't happen without a method for county taxation which would require an amendment to the state constitution.

Why? To pick just one example, East Haven, West Haven, and New Haven could merge into a single city without county-level government.

...and owning other human beings.

"American exceptionalism" is rooted in the lie that the Founders were geniuses who were perfect.

> does anyone know which areas and what percentage the tax money is used in Connecticut?

You do realize that these things are not only knowable, but easily knowable, using this thing called the Internet.

Don't be fooled. Those were painted by Wile E. Coyote.

Three months? There was none for almost 11 months. ;-)

This understates the pay ratio since most of the low wage work is outsourced to third party "contractors".

No funeral. Whittington is to be mounted on the wall of Cheney's trophy room.

Cumberland Farms > Dunkin' and Starbucks

> a nonprofit that purchases medical debt at a fraction of its original cost, then forgives borrowers.

In other words, these 'debts' have already been written off by the healthcare providers. They were then put out on the open market for bottom-feeders to bid for the right to extort payments from people who may or may not actually owe any money.

This is the "greatest country in the world"? Really?

By cancelling cable service, at least I'm not giving a penny to Fox or CNBC.

If Frontier service is bad, at least I'm paying a third of what I was paying Comcast.

This confirms that it was an abusive relationship.

I have my Frontier fiber installation scheduled for later this month. I'm positively giddy for my call to cancel Comcast once I know the new setup works.

No matter how many times they rebrand or try to bring people back, they're a shitty company and I'll do my damnedest to never give Comcast another penny.

People who don’t buy them still get micro plastics in their food and water.

Ban them.

Better solution: Don’t make plastic clothing fibers.
