Having lived in Clairton I can tell you that this is not the first time something has exploded. In fact, it happens pretty frequently.

A horrible thing just happened in Clairton, Pennsylvania. One of the batteries in the Clairton Coke Works exploded and it is a mass casualty event, one dead, multiple people hurt and missing. www.wpxi.com/news/local/e...

Senator Padilla was violently assaulted for doing his job. If this is how federal agents treat a sitting U.S. Senator peacefully asking questions, how far will they go?

News: The Pennsylvania House has passed a bill 102-101 to increase the state's $7.25 minimum wage to one of three wages, ranging from $12 to $15 an hour, depending on the county, along with future automatic hikes at pace with inflation. It goes to the state Senate.

Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.
