    Dodgers showing no signs of a World Series hangover
    CINCINNATI — One year ago, the Dodgers were just starting to dig themselves out.
    When they woke up last May 17, they were 10 games under .500 (16-26) and eight games out in the National League West. They won that night and kept on winning – nine of their next 11. After that cold start, they won at a .628 rate (76-45), right through a Game 163 victory over the Colorado Rockies to claim their sixth consecutive division title.

    Stockton’s Universal Basic Income experiment is doomed to fail. Here’s why
    What if we could solve poverty by just giving people money? It sounds too good to be true, which it is. But that hasn’t stopped a growing number of people from advocating for “Universal Basic Income,” or UBI.
    UBI proposals come in different shapes and sizes, but the central idea revolves around guaranteeing everyone — regardless of income or employment status — a certain minimum amount of money, usually doled out in monthly installments, and with little restrictions

    Federal tax reform has helped, not hurt, Californians
    More Californians got a federal tax cut last year than did taxpayers in 20 other states. The average family of four got to keep $2,500 more of their hard-earned money. In fact, most taxpayers nationwide got a tax cut. The cap on state and local tax (SALT) deductions did not change that.
    Across America’s blue states, Republicans and Democrats have been peddling the falsehood that people who live in high-tax states got screwed by Trump’s tax cuts. The data don’t bear that out.

    It’s hard to find a set of NFL offseason power rankings that doesn’t include the Chargers inside the top five, or a shade outside. Few teams possess the type of talent the Chargers do, which has led to pundits calling them contenders with a Super Bowl-ready roster.
