I adamantly believe trucks are overpriced, but to expect prices to be the same as 8-9 years ago is a bit disingenuous. You have to at least reasonably expect prices to increase at the rate of normal inflation, not in the least considering the cost of Biden inflation. ...
I also truly think the old croons in the FED do not understand the purchasing behaviors of the new generation. Saving money is not a priority for the younger generations as they have pretty well accepted they will be working until they're 70+ with no social security to rely on and they also live in ...
I say all the following as someone who works for one the nations largest wholesalers, if not the largest depending on metric and work intimately with manufacturers. I believe we are in a bit of a vicious cycle where manufacturers are increasing prices because debt is expensive, but there is no scal...
I've been in Texas 5 years now and plan to stay here for the long haul. That being said I will never consider myself a Texan just a Texas resident, Louisiana will always be home. ...

While I don't disagree that big government likes to enact legislation to ensure optimal tax revenues, it doesn't exactly apply here. Cigarettes and OTP (Other Tobacco Products) are taxed differently. Most nicotine pouch (TDN) users were already users of OTP and in most tax jurisdictions TDN and OTP ...

For those that aren't familiar with the tobacco industry. Zyn is owned by Swedish Match, also the manufacturers of White Owl and Game little cigars. On! is manufactured by Helix Innovations, which is owned by Altria, who also owns PhilipMorris USA and USSR, so Marlboro and Copenhagen. Velo is manufa...

The tobacco industry would be investing $0 to Schumer for this stance, quite the opposite. TDN (Tobacco Derived Nicotine) products (aka Zyn, On!, Rogue and Velo) are a fast growing segment for all the major players in an otherwise declining category. Zyn, owned by swedish match, is the dominant bra...

When I'd drive back to Waco from visiting Louisiana id always pass through Mart and it amazed me that that small town has such a prestigious football program...
Yeah I seem to remember the box combo being around $5 when the Cane's first opened in Houma. ...
They also trolled Ryan Leaf saying Daniels was holding more than a clipboard tonight...
Ahh yes because underdogs never win...
The matchup in regards to winning doesn't bother me at all. What is annoying is playing a team we've played in multiple bowls in recent years. I really wish there was bowl tie in where we could play a west coast team like Arizona that we have only played 3 times in our history....
As of now they are set to continue, too much money for them not to be played. They will basically be a de facto "playoff" game to determine seeding. The problem that can happen is it is entirely possible you could see the same teams play 3 times in a season. For example next year, the big 10 is goin...
Thank you for starting this thread. It led me to doing my ancestry via family search.org and its pretty awesome to see where my family comes from. My surname has records that trace all the way back to 1535 in the Cancale/Saint-Malo region of France. Unsurprisingly a large % of my ancestors came ...
I'm not a 100% sure on Subway, but typically what happens in the food service industry is the Corporation will negotiate a purchase with suppliers/manufacturers, i.e. Tyson. The corporation then contracts to a wholesale distributor to pick up from supplier/manufacturer at x cost and dictates to sell...

Is crews #3 grey arm sleeve a dale Earnhardt sleeve?...
I left for grad school in Texas after graduating from LSU. I had intentions of returning to Louisiana after finishing my masters, but after 2 years in Texas, my decision quickly changed. I may not stay in Texas forever, but if I voluntarily move anywhere else it'll likely be Florida for retirement....
I just want one streaming service to offer a nothing but sports package. I don't need any other cable channel just give me ESPN, MLB, Golf, FS1, etc....
