  1. Nimby's have taken over Mooresville. Don't want to ever hear the Mayor complain about affordable housing.... https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/lake-norman/article269668256.html
  2. DOJ balks at Tepper’s Rock Hill bankruptcy plan; Feds ask judge to block confirmation https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/business/article268533397.html
  3. Remote work always had it's risks. You can set someone up in India with a laptop and their company charges the american company a significantly less rate than a American. The indian's I worked with were working from home too, which probably saved the american company more money on top of that. Some American workers are even taking a pay rate cut, but still charge more more than India.
  4. A lot of companies are offshoring to India now. I worked for a Indian company and you wouldn't believe the business pipelines they have. Hopefully onshoring comes back and produces jobs for the area.
  5. I'm all for Psychiatric hospital's coming back with strict government oversight compared to no oversight before. If someone's a danger to themselves or others, they shouldn't be in jail, but a place that can rehabilitate and evaluate them.
  6. Landlord's need to lower rent in the Cities. Cities are in a affordability crisis now with incomes not keeping up. I don't know how that would be resolved. Hat's off to the person who solves it!
  7. NC's come a long way since the Bathroom Bill fiasco IMO.
  8. They got moved to hotels away from the CBD. I saw a bunch of folks by one and they went in and out it. Hopefully they house them in the winter too and this isn't just a temporary summer tourist thing.
  9. What's going on in this world? Scary times... https://www.yahoo.com/news/cashier-wisconsin-walgreens-refuses-sell-132457089.html
  10. They just said there's alot to do in the city compared to others. I think they were referring to entertainment and nightlife. They couldn't stop talking about how beautiful southpark is.
  11. Whenever my colleagues have to go to Charlotte for business they are always excited. The enthusiasm Charlotte brings is phenomenal.
  12. They want to make sodomy illegal next which would make all Gay people in NC automatically a class 1 Felon with Jail time and have to register as Sex Offenders. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/06/29/texas-sodomy-supreme-court-lawrence-paxton-lgbtq/ https://www.findlaw.com/state/north-carolina-law/north-carolina-prohibited-consensual-sexual-activity-laws.html
  13. This corporate welfare given to Billionaires at the expense of taxpayers is disgusting. Reminds of this Silicon Valley episode:
  14. David Tepper's GT Real Estate Holdings LLC files complaint against York County in Delaware bankruptcy court https://www.bizjournals.com/charlotte/news/2022/07/15/gt-real-estate-york-county-adversary-proceeding.html
  15. No anger here, just disappointed for the SC taxpayers that the funds were possibly not used for their intended purpose which is fraud. A judge will have the determine if that's true or not. That money could have gone to the homeless and veterans or other infrastructure improvements.
  16. So people can say "Even if the city and/or county were at fault?" without giving a explanation of citation? What a joke.
  17. That's not explicitly answering my question. Posting links isn't answering a question.
  18. Lawsuit's beginning. Hope the taxpayers win against Tepper. https://www.wcnc.com/article/sports/nfl/panthers/carolina-panthers-rock-hill-york-county-south-carolina-david-tepper-lawsuit-training-facility/275-ddfc7ac6-68e5-4cf2-94d8-2685e2be4967
  19. Really don't understand why Bamboo isn't encouraged in the states here. It's weird going to Asia and seeing it as a lifesource for building, clothing, and eating in those communities but people have a phobia of it here. Sustainability is critical right now. There are non-invasive Bamboos' that can grow here and produce 35% more oxygen than trees.
