New comment by tutorialmanager in "California farmers to destroy 420k peach trees following Del Monte bankruptcy"

tutorialmanager — Wed, 06 May 2026 21:34:29 +0000

Peach trees last at most 15 years on commercial farms and are often replaced after only 10 years. The peak production years are from 5 to 10 years and I doubt any trees being cut down under this program are in that stage.

We want to have a strong Iran, but with a friendly and peaceful leadership. We could easily take out Iran’s oil infrastructure, but it’s important for that to survive for the next generation of Iran. It seems crazy that Iran is still loading oil and selling it right now, but the goal is not to destroy Iran. A revolution is needed and hopefully it will come soon.

Some divorce laws seem to have the goal of being fair on average no matter what happens in many cases. Other laws seem to desire fairness in a few cases while causing unfairness in many more.

In California now, If you don’t understand why there are so many false claims of domestic violence at the beginning of a custody battle you may be in for a world of hurt.

In the case of someone I know, the wife’s notes from a meeting with a prospective attorney included “DVRO=$”

DVRO is Domestic Violence Restraining Order. For 10 months he only saw his kids with 3rd party supervised visitation costing $100 per hour.

MA gerrymandered their state to 100% dems in the early 90s. Was that the start of the cold civil war?

So if I report less income, prices for me go down and no penalty if I get caught.

All of NPR's 87 editorial board members are registered Democrats. That should give some indication of where they are on left versus right.

Just like police departments use asset forfeiture to get money to buy their “toys” while innocent people lose their cash and cars because carrying cash is suspicious.

From what I saw, a "massive" amount of the left had no problem with FBI agents repeatedly lying to the FISA court to get warrants to spy on the opposing parties presidential campaign. Everyone on both sides knows the other side is full of criminals so anything against them is OK. There is no good ending to this situation.

Also, most of my capital gains are due to inflation and not an increase in value.

I think the point is that it’s not just the wealthy households. Not everyone wants a cabin but most people can afford one.

Reasonable people can debate weather or not a sinkhole filled with water is a wetland. The EPA overstretched it’s authority and calls these things navigable waterways and that’s what this lawsuit is about.

The basic idea is that if you take criminals out of lawful society and put them in prison, they might someday learn that lawful society is worth participating in. The real problem is that lots of kids have terrible parents and nothing can be done about that.

Plenty of unemployed section 8 tenants will spend the next 40-50 years living in the same Los Angeles rent-controlled apartment. It's not necessary to have the productive members of society drive a long commute when the unemployed are living near jobs.

The notion that poor people (especially the unemployed) have the "right" to live in any neighborhood (even the most desirable) is crazy. Plenty of seniors living only on social security move out of California to a cost of living they can afford. Others cobble together a basket of benefits like Section 8 or low income housing lottery, disability payments (spurious), free health care, subsidized utilities, and snap. They end up with the same consumption level as your nurse or line cook without any job. I'ts not easy to get on all these benefit programs. It takes a combination of luck and tenacity.

The idea that LA could just pay it's poor people to live in Adelanto wouldn't work. This needs to happen at a state or federal level.
