  1. Does anyone believe a word that comes out of the mouths of the corrupt township officials?
    Traffic is insane injuries and daily accidents caused by their own doing yet they pretend to care and just shift blame

  2. Which schools are doing the testing on students?! And which school is making teachers adhere to Murphys law?

    1. I like that. Murphy's law. If something can go wrong, it will.

    2. Someone who advocates ignoring the law of the state and the land, is a פורק עול and a בן בליעל. You may disagree with it, you may give your opinion, but people who don't keep the law are not בעלי שיטה, they are הפקר יונגן.

      Only when the Torah tells us not to keep it, are things different. But there is no Torah that tells us not to get tested or vaccinated, just people's political opinions.

  3. Schools are testing for gelt but what if there are false positives now a whole family is in quarantine the parents have to take off from work to stay home with their children.

  4. Anyone in the house who is vaccinated doesn't have to quarantine...

  5. They don't actually send results. It's a way to be paid for signing a paper. Don't worry. They only call if positive, which never happens.

  6. Once weekly testing gets underway, expect skyrocketing positive results and many teachers having to stay home. By the way, substitutes have to be tested as well. We need clarity from the Governor if a substitute can enter the building in the first place if not vaccinated or tested within the immediate 24 hours prior to coming to teach. It may be that kids will be coming to school without anyone to watch them. By the way, principals and office staff will need to be tested as well. Get ready for CRAZY!

  7. A K in 2009 and cronies brought Corzine to Lakewood twice before the election fortunately Lakewood and Passaic were too Savvy and 3/4 voted against Corzine
    that was crucial

    have Lakewood and Passaic devolved since then

    ?

    1. There's too much noise for most people to notice. However, those who won't vote (against Murphy) because they think it won't make a difference,and certainly those who DO vote for Murphy, will have blood on their hands when Murphy mandates the vax for kids and... I don't want to spell out what may likely occur. Chayecha kodmin! Save yourself... and your kids!

    2. Thank God the vaccine is safe, and we have no reason to fear it. Whether they mandate it or not, it is no problem

    3. Which medical company do you work for? You can't possibly be serious!

  8. Are stores lowering their markup percentage? If everyone is purchasing the same stuff with a double bill that means stores are making double profit....

    ReplyDelete
  9. Not if it’s costing stores double. What kind of dumb statement is that?

    1. Let's simplify the math. If it costs the store $10 and they charge a 10% markup their profit is $1. If prices double to $20, and their markup stays the same then they will have a $2 profit which is double the original profit.
      However this doesn't take into account other costs which rise as well including labor and utilities etc.

  10. Your math is still flawed because just like everything is costing the consumer more everything is costing the business owners more so the markup is higher too. Forget about their personal finances, they have to pay employees much more now to want to come to work.

  11. You’re so smart that you know how to calculate 10% but you don’t seem to have a basic understanding of how the economy works. The higher prices is not just lining the store owners pockets.

    1. So now you have an excuse for why the grocery stores need to make more money.. The question is are they now coming out way ahead because of all this additional revenue? I don't need businesses making a fortune off the vulnerable so they can donate a fat check to the local charity org.
