  • "The US has an obesity problem, and with that, the many accompanying health factors most European countries do not have, due to their limited (in comparison to the US) variety of food choices, and less immediate access to fast food. This is the main factor to your health statement. Also, since many Euro states are socialist in policy, the people are required to not work, sometimes for months. Which is quite a bit different than "leisure time"."

  • "Let's pray for some soaking rains. Thanks to all of our firefighter's for their hard work and always being there in our time of need. It's been a tough fire season. Unfortunately, it appears it might be an extended season due to the La Nina weather pattern that has developed which usually means warmer temperature's with below normal rainfall."

  • "Things are so quiet now that Hill is gone! His crazy behavior sure did make for some interesting reading. Remember when he accused CCN of lying and paying for comments? "n addition, Hill has been using his elected position to bully advertisers and supporters of CalCoastNews in a campaign to cripple the website. Hill used his county internet address to send emails making false claims — for example, that CalCoastNews is an anti-government website paying sources to fabricate comments.""

  • "And what does that have to do with this? Instead of EVERYONE acknowledging this is fraud on a grand stage, that once again the state govt demonstrated how out of touch they are and should be held accountable, some people feel the need to defend them by bringing up some other issue from left field. That kind of stuff serves no one."

  • "This is your Democratic ( for yrs ) run government at its best. They pass laws to verify gun and ammunition purchases by eligible people but can't do the same when it comes to paying out taxpayer money. They could use existing gun verification system to tell if a person gets money or not. They will never get money back or prosecute them as we will have to pay for a attorney for them and they are in jail already anyway. The people who vote these fools in every yr. are dumber than they are. Maybe the latest gas tax hoax YOU VOTED FOR will cover the loss. Wake up people."

  • "NorthCountyLady : Stimulus checks or debit cards or EDD debit cards etc would have to be mailed by the agencies to a non prison address .Inmates family friends or fellow gang members would have to use appropriate money exchangers that credit inmates accounts .The prison system would keep half for fines court costs and restitution. Inmates mail is searched debit card would not make it in , the card numbers could make it inmate easily if inmate had a smuggled smartphone then inmate could credit their own account .Not all inmates were poor people before prison and alot of them had jobs prior to their incarceration not all were drug dealers or thieves or bums etc etc .I guess an inmate could claim unemployment as they do have paying jobs in prison but on lockdown due to covid 19 and they could file a claim for stimulus check ... Yes 99 % were scams ...but I would say it is people that are NOT incarcerated that was filing on any inmate they could think of.Millions of stimulus checks and EDD money was filed for fraudulently by scammers in the USA and around the world"

  • "Nice comments. Refreshing to read. I'll take it a step farther if I may. We have it wrong. We need to flip this around. Let's set aside one day a year to gripe and complain, and the other 364 to be thankful for the the lives and provisions we have. Each beat of our heart, and breathe we take, is a gift from God. I thank Him for His grace, which is giving us what we don't deserve, and His mercy, which is not giving us what we do deserve. We should always be thankful for the sacrifices of those before us and the opportunities we have in this nation, but there is only one God of all. The other "our gods" will fail you miserably. I had to learn that the hard way. No matter what you are facing be comforted by these few verses. Psalm30:4-5 Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life, weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning."

  • "Does anyone realize that it has been determined that prisoners, including violent felons in State Prisons and those incarcerated in State Hospitals have been deemed to be eligible to receive stimulus checks. This is not an illegal scam on their part. It is OUR GOVERNMENT deciding that they can legally receive those $1200.00 checks we all received and are hoping to get again. When you consider it costs $81,000.00 a year to incarcerate an inmate in State Prison in California for one year and $250,000.00 for an incarcerated patient in a state hospital this is truly an outrage. These are murderers, rapists, child molesters, who have their food, housing, clothing, medical and dental care all paid for by taxpayers who are being given stimulus money. Check this out. It's true."

  • "Our head physician, DA, and sherriff all choose to defy logic and keep open many things; Monterey and SB shut down. To blame this on Heidi, is as to Blame Trump, or anyone who acquired this crap and accidentally transmitted it, aside from the Rich, we all suffer TOGETHER, as family, neighbors and citizens. Our county failed us as did many Gov agencies the state through the feds. Maybe one day the rich will care, when those who facilitate their wealth abandon them as they have done us throughout civilization. Czars and scars."

  • "How in the hell can this happen? Follow the trail through EDD and hold the incompetent, over compensated state employees and supervisor's accountable and terminate them. If there is anyone deserving of the death penalty it's the scum bag. The overturning of it is his death sentence is terrible. Isn't this convicted murderer of his wife and unborn child a Cal(Fascist)Poly alumni? He'd fit right in with today's crowd at CP. I'm surprised they didn't throw out the second-degree murder charge on his precious innocent child, saying it wasn't a life by todays evil standards regarding a child's right to life. That might be next. When the day comes, may he rot in hell."

  • "That might be true, but I always found it funny that often the same group of people who think the government can't get anything right also somehow think that the government can be trusted to always get right determining who should get the death penalty. If ever there was a decision that you'd want to get right 100% of the time, it would be dealing out a penalty that is final and irreversible, yet somehow we fully trust the government with that one, but not with determining who gets unemployment?"

  • "The Aryan Brotherhood, also known as The Brand, Alice Baker, AB or One-Two, is the nation’s oldest major white supremacist prison gang and a national crime syndicate. “For the Aryan Brotherhood, murder is a way to make a social statement. If blacks attack whites, we send a message. We go pick one of their shot callers. We catch them walking across the [prison] yard under guard escort in handcuffs. It don’t matter. We’re going to butcher him in front of God and everybody at high noon in the middle of the yard. And it’s not just going to be a few clean stab marks. It’s going to be a vicious, brutal killing. Because that’s how brothers [AB members] take care of business, and a brother’s work is never done.” —Interview with imprisoned ex-AB “commissioner” John Greschner, Intelligence Report, Winter 2012"

  • "I doubt large sums of money was credited to 1000s of inmate accounts.CDCR takes half of all money inmates receive and applies it to restitution and fines even though the victims end up maybe with 5 or 10% of the original amount, the state and the counties keep most of it claiming processing fees .Most EDD money was fraudulently obtained using inmates info ,inmate info is available on the internet along with any info needed to file a claim .In the 70s and 80s before CDCR began checking inmates would be released with $50k and well into six figures of social security and disability moneys on their inmate accounts .Now days most of that is being stopped , there is retired military and GOV employees that receive their retirement while incarcerated and of course 401k etc moneys . Some addresses were receiving 100s of EDD debit cards in 100s of different names"
