toast:

Minimum wage in Iowa: $5.15
Minimum wage in California: $6.75

Working at minimum wage for one year at 40 hours a week for 50 weeks (2 for vaca):
Iowa: $10,300
California: $13,500

Lets not mention that anyone with a high school diploma can make more than minimum wage out here (albeit to make good money relative to the rest of the state, you have to be something special), and that if California were its own country, it would be the 7th LARGEST economy in the WORLD.

Funny!?

We are discussing insurance rates and up comes a 10% off offer - see above.

Coincidence or conspiracy?

With one speeding ticket (3 miles over) and no other infractions, over 30, only car, I pay $119/month with Am Fam.

Thanks,

By "Priceless" I assume you are referring to the cost of housing and electricity and car insurance and taxes?

btw, no one in Iowa (okay, to be fair ALMOST no one) works for minimum wage. If anyplace offered anywhere near minimum wage they would have no employees. Starting wages for McDonalds is somewhere around $7.00.

Can a hybrid out-run a tornado in Iowa?

Just kidding.

Here in the Midwest we don't outrun tornados. We track them on weather.com or the weather channel, put our HCHII in the garage, get in the basement with our flashlights and portable radios and hope for the best. We can look in to the sky here and see the horizon (unlike southern California I am told)

It's a lot like a "smug alert", but George Clooney is not involved...
