— COMMENT: Democrats say “Book about ‘Cuban privilege’ stirs controversy in Miami.” All my ancestors were German Lutherans who immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s. Why did your ancestors immigrate?

What do you say to countries that illegally send their citizens to America illegally to illegally serve as spies?
https://www.aol.com/news/book-cuban-privilege-stirs-controversy-192155111.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Cuban Privilege: The Making of Immigrant Inequality in America,” by Boston University professor Susan Eckstein, argues that Cuban immigrants who have been coming to the U.S since the 1960s are not genuine refugees nor political exiles since most did not leave the island because they faced persecution.” FROM WIKIPEDIA RE: GERMAN IMMIGRANTS: “They were pulled by the attractions of land and religious freedom, and pushed out of Germany by shortages of land and religious or political oppression. Many arrived seeking religious or political freedom, others for economic opportunities greater than those in Europe, and others for the chance to start fresh in the New World. The arrivals before 1850 were mostly farmers who sought out the most productive land, where their intensive farming techniques would pay off. After 1840, many came to cities, where “Germania”—German-speaking districts—soon emerged.”)

WFIN
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Ukrainian refugees struggle to find work in US.” My ancestors on my father’s side immigrated in 1844 from what is now Germany. They worked in a brick factory in Chicago until 1854 when they homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township. They sold that farm in 1964 and bought 10 acres just north of downtown Crete. They raised and sold horses on those 10 acres, but soon began operating Crete’s only hardware store at the northeast corner of Main and Exchange. They sold and subdivided much of those 10 acres in the 1920s. My grandfather had 1286 Wood Street built on that land in 1926. I lived in that house 1954-1972 and my brother lived in it from 1954 until he recently died. An estate sale is currently in progress and the closing to sell the home has been scheduled.)

— Here Are 10 Classic Muscle Cars You Can Use As Daily Drivers – SAMARVEER SINGH (COMMENT: The list includes three that I used to own: 1968 Oldsmobile 442, 1968 Dodge Charger R/T, and 1969 Dodge Charger SE. I also owned a “poor man’s GTO,” a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint. My and my wife’s daily driver since 2010 has been a 2003 Chevrolet Caviler LS that I bought from my aunt when she went into an assisted living facility in 2010.

They are older on average compared to most compact car buyers, with women forming the majority.)

— How Long Do Electric Car Batteries Last? – Dustin Hawley (COMMENT: I bought my 1972 Corvette new in 1971. Its engine continues to start and run just fine. I bought my 1996 Thunderbird LX in 1995. Its engine continues to start and run just fine.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Generally, electric vehicle batteries last 10-20 years, but some factors may reduce their lifespan. For instance, batteries may degrade faster in hotter climates as heat does not pair well with EVs. Additionally, charging the battery at a Level 3 station can cause the battery to overheat, as the charging process is too quick. This process can negatively affect performance and longevity.)
