I enjoy the extra daylight during Daylight Saving Time.  It would be so nice if we could remain on Daylight Saving Time all year instead of switching back and forth.

Yes, I always wear my mask, wash my hands and maintain social distance.  My state has not lifted the mask requirement.
I want to be as safe as possible so I will continue to wear my mask until this virus is under control and no longer a threat.

Sadly so many of these widespread instances  of hatred have a birth place in propaganda spread by inadequate administrations. Our health system and ability to handle epidemics/pandemics was woefully inadequate so the inadequacy is transferred to a different country/nationality. Muslims and Islamic people were persecuted as a result of propaganda spread around nine eleven. Expulsion of Jews from parts of Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi were ordered by Ulysses Grant during the American Civil War. Other groups were/are treated less humanely as a result of their skin color or sex: Blacks, Hispanics, Women. America has placed Japanese and Mexican individuals in internment camps. Italian, Polish and Irish people were looked down upon as inferior. It is even evident in many of the posts that one sees here, on Fusion cash, as people speak poorly of Mexicans.

Tresbn00, I agree with you 100 percent.  Right now this is a sad state of affairs, let's hope and pray it gets better soon.

That was funny.  Yes it is still the flu season.  In the United States, the flu season is considered October through May. It usually peaks in February. In Australia, the flu season is considered May to October.

Ten Most Sinful Cities in the US

Ranking sin
The 150 most populous cities in America were analyzed according to seven key sinful factors: 1) anger and hatred, 2) jealousy, 3) excesses and vices, 4) avarice, 5) lust, 6) vanity and 7) laziness.
In its research, WalletHub utilized 27 relevant metrics that carry their own respective weight based on a 100-point scale. The numbers were then crunched by researchers to reveal he highest- and lowest-ranked cities when it comes to various vices.
Living up to its name, Sin City claimed the number-one ranking overall. Here is a look at the top 10 with the lowest morality rates, with their overall “vice index” score in parenthesis (the lower, the better).
1.   Las Vegas, Nevada (63.6)
2.   St. Louis, Missouri (59.0)
3.   Cincinnati, Ohio (57.0)
4.   Orlando, Florida (56.7)
5.   Springfield, Missouri (54.
6.   Miami, Florida (52.
7.   Richmond, Virginia (52.7)
8.   Baton Rouge, Louisiana (52.6)
9.   Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (52.1)
10. New Orleans, Louisiana (51.9)
Surprising to many, New York City and Los Angeles – America’s two most populous cities – fell well outside the top 100 most sinful cities. The Big Apple finished 131th and the City of Angels registered at 137th.
Despite this finding, Gonzalez stressed that the ranking is by no means an indication that large cities are less susceptible to vice than smaller ones.
"Las Vegas, for instance, is No. 1 – smaller than New York City and Los Angeles, yes – but by no means a small city," Gonzalez explained.


10 least-sinful cities
When analyzing the data further, out of the 150 cities analyzed, many the 10 that ranked lowest in sin – and highest in moral behavior – are in California. Take a look – again, the vice index is noted in parenthesis …
1.  San Jose, California (26.4)
2.  Fremont, California (28.3)
3.  Yonkers, New York (29.0)
4.  Brownsville, Texas (30.6)
5.  Chula Vista, California (30.
6.  Garden Grove, California (31.2)
7.  Santa Ana, California (31.2)
8.  Irvine, California (31.3)
9.  Glendale, California (31.4)
10. Santa Clarita, California (32.2)
Following the trend for the Golden State of having comparably less sinful behavior per capita, Anaheim – the home of Disneyland – came in a close 11th place.
