global1's JournalLooking For Info: What Is The Going Rate For A Realtor Commish On A Sale Of Lake Property In N.Wisc?
I am considering selling a piece of lakefront property on a chain of lakes north of Eau Claire and am wondering what realtor's are charging for commission these days?
Also - are such properties selling up there?
Any info would be appreciated.
What's Going On With The 1/6 Investigation?....
I haven't heard any news from the Committee for a while now.
Let's Be Realistic - We're Not Going To Solve This Climate Problem....
Why?
1. Too much money is at stake throughout our economy when you consider the oil companies and the infrastructure and all the things that that goes along with and rely on fossil fuels.
2. We can't even solve some easier problems - like homelessness; like poverty; like U.S. citizens starving because of lack of food; guns; racism; etc.
3. The American People are spoiled. They are too used to doing and having things that they do and have to want to give up; sacrifice or contribute to solving the climate problem. Hell - we can't even get them to agree about vaccinations and mask mandates.
The Fact That Tr**p & Company & The Repugs & Insurrectionists Are Not Being Held Accountable......
for their crimes - gives the cult the green light to break laws and feel that they can get away with it.
We are becoming a lawless society. Open carry. Walking down the street with guns. Think Rittenhouse in Kenosha.
This has got to change or we'll become like the Old West.
Who Do You Think Was The Source Of The Rolling Stone Article On The Insurrection?......
It surely wasn't elected politician ratting on themself.
Maybe it could have been someone on the staff of the Congressperson(s) in question.
It could have been one of the insurrectionists that has been arrested and charged for the 1/6 riot that was being coached by a Congressperson. Maybe they cut a deal to spill the beans on these Congresspeople to keep themselves out of jail.
Any other theories as to who was the source of the Rolling Stone Article?
When Did K Street Get It's Start?.....
K Street - known for it's cadre of lobbyists. When did this all begin? How long have we had lobbyists working on influencing our elected officials in Congress? When did this concept of bribery begin?
Have lobbyists been around for a long time and just became organized on K-Street in DC?
Or
Is this something that was created out of the Citizens United ruling?
What's Up With These Selling Video's That Go On And On And Take Over A Half Hour To Get.......
to the point of selling you something?
I just got sucked into one of these videos that has a fast talking guy go on and on promising you something fantastic - but always evading telling you about the product - until you've invested over a half hour listening to the run up to the sales pitch for the actual product.
What is this sales technique called? Why do they use it? Why do they think it works?
At the end of the pitch - they give you a page to place an order of something that is in very short supply and you better buy today - before we have to raise the price.
It was for a product to fix your vision. They go through all sorts of stories, research, testimonials.
I'm sure its some kind of scam - get rich quick deal for the people running the ad.
But they really put a lot of effort into creating this video and made the product sound unbelievable.
I listened to the end - but didn't buy. I was determined I would wait and see what the upshot of this whole ad was about.
Caveat Emptor!!! Let the buyer beware!!!
Has anyone had a similar experience.
I Watched The HBO Documentary - Four Hours At The Capitol - Last Night About 1/6 Storming.....
and insurrection. Very compelling. I'm sure I've seen some of the footage for the first time while watching.
I was surprised that many of the comments basically glorified the insurrectionists as 'patriots'. I was surprised at the slant of the documentary.
It really was a sad day for America. It was clear to me that Tr**p incited the crowd and didn't do anything to quell the riot sooner.
Then when Tr**p actually did speak up - he was complimentary to the rioters.
I don't know how anyone can watch a docu like this and not want to hold those people behind this insurrection accountable. They have to pay for this or the next time this happens (and after watching this - there will be a next time) - we might actually lose the building and our democracy.
I wish they had some footage as to Tr**p's reaction to this insurrection in real time. I see him as being gleeful while watching it.
So Did Bill Maher Lay Out The Road Map For Tr**p & The Repugs To End.....
democracy?
I can see Tr**p saying - if that's what they expect us to do - then we'll do it. That's how Tr**p gets his ideas and his permission. He listens to the talking heads speculating as to what he's going to do - then he does it.
