Reply to Are Kayem Hot Dogs Acceptable? by TheHistoryofCats
Kayem dogs are great. I sell them on my hotdog stand. Try the red ones for the novelty if you want, but after that stick with the brown dogs. All you are getting is the unnecessary red dye.

I don't think their would be broad support for that. And I think you would still run up against the 1st Amendment even though it applied to everything.

All the candidates I've personally known go around and collect their signs a few days after the election (and they've had a chance to sleep). Those signs are not free to make and they will save them for their next campaign.

Which means no more yard sale notices, open house signs for realtors, farm stands, lost cats and dogs posters, lost KID posters...

>Personally, I’d also love it if people stopped basing their personality on their politics.
Aren't you doing that by calling your neighbors "smeg heads" because they don't agree with you politically?

Then they are free to go apply for a job at one of the thousands of places looking for employees. Nobody was ever forced to become an Uber driver, and nobody makes them stay.

All the things you mentioned, people who choose to work the gig economy don't really care about. You are just trying to impose your beliefs and feelings on them.

Also, unless you are in your 70's or older you have never experienced real capitalism. The free market hasn't existed for a LONG time.

If they become "employees" then they will have to deal with things like set shifts, and taking what fairs they are told to take and not what and when they choose. People drive for Uber and Lift because they want the freedom of being able to work when they want. And while the company does not pay for maintenance costs and fuel, these are all things they can claim on their tax return.

There are no reservations for the Island Trails. They have a guide book that you can buy (helps fund the maintenance). If you don't have a boat you can always get transportation to places like Jewl Island through Portland Sea Taxi.
