DEAR EDITOR: I’ve spent 40-plus years explaining, providing guidance to clients on many rules and regulations applicable to running a business, specifically applicable to “employer-employee relationship.” Often mandates are confusing, difficult to adhere to, centered on the fact ...
DEAR EDITOR: When it comes to questions of executive orders or packing the Supreme Court, the hypocrisy of the GOP and camp follower, columnist Cal Thomas, it’s hard to judge the ability of one versus the other. The GOP, led by Mitch McConnell, refused to even conduct a public hearing ...
