  1. Canada. Worked during Vietnam.
  2. Why it works is; they are paid while in training. Most people start making money and they like owning thier own lives.
  3. Wisconsin Works is an interesting program. One can only be on Welfare for two years. During that two years, they must get job skills training. The state pays for childcare, food, training, etc. during this time of transition. They have additional means of getting people help . . . https://dcf.wisconsin.gov/w2/parents/w2
  4. I was jumping an Eclipse with a Icarus 365. Our rigger sewed a type of leg lift strap to put on the student's legs, so they could pull their legs up and hold them + I am 6'6" : )
  5. When I went thru the TI course; it was "loosen the lower attachments." Course, butt slide landings were frowned upon then too.
  6. @13.44 minutes into the video, he specifically says, the authors did not lay out a plan, it was more like a cookbook with recipes. Tariff chaos is not a negotiating tool. And, let's not forget that it was American businessmen who shipped the jobs overseas for lower wages to increase their profits. I doubt they'll bring jobs back for $3,000/month when they can maintain a $100/month workforce and no HR headaches. The only thing we'll see (are seeing) here is a recession and a "We're winning HUGELY."
  7. You completely missed the message.

    Trump

    It is symbolic, but if no one ever pushes the rudder, the course remains the same. It will need to go to the senate, then to Trump for a veto. Rinse/repeat. It takes the first step for the entire formation to move in unison. I'm hoping we see more from our legislators - who right now are not, well, legislating, nor holding Trump accountable for circumventing the process.

    Trump

    Senate rebukes Trump’s tariffs as some Republicans vote to halt taxes on Canadian imports - a vote of 51-48. https://apnews.com/article/congress-tariffs-trump-republicans-a45b4d4da013e4ce1ce434b81337e3ec
  10. Wonder if he'll have time to get to TSA. The most non-security security.

    You will always be a skydiver. No one can take that from you. Please check in on occasion. You'll always be a part of this community.
  13. Longing for the Clinton era, huh? :)
