It is time for decent people to […] Read More and Comment: Los Angeles Has the Biggest Disconnect in the US Between Wages and Rents Robots have potential to cut costs, threaten jobs By Stephen Frank on Feb 11, 2015 08:40 pm California has high payroll taxes, forced benefits, government mandated sick time and more.

By Stephen Frank on Feb 11, 2015 08:34 pm   Is your doctor a better doctor because the State grants a license?
