    Californians are not paying their bills at the highest level since 2021
    Californians started 2024 with the most challenges in paying their bills on time in nine quarters.
    If there’s a must-watch number out there to gauge the financial pulse of the consumer, it’s the New York Fed’s quarterly tracking of who’s paying their bills on time. These figures are compiled from an analysis of credit histories from Equifax. So, we’re talking about bill-paying patterns of folks with credit profiles.
    Caveat noted, we see that Californians had 1.27% o

    Coastal czars overstep power in surf contest
    The best way to handle contentious cultural battles in our diverse and politically divided country is to let private actors sort things out on their own. Whenever government inserts itself into these debates, it leads only to bitterness and anger.
    One of the latest debates involves transgender athletes. Should they compete with athletes from their same biological sex or with athletes from the gender with which they identify? We have our own views, but that’s not of consequence. What matter

    BALTIMORE — Preakness favorite Muth has been ruled out of the race after spiking a fever, removing a horse trained by Bob Baffert and potentially giving Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan a clearer path through the second leg of the Triple Crown.

    The California Environmental Quality Act can be preserved and reformed to limit abuses
    After more than a year of study, California’s Little Hoover Commission has confirmed what many have long known: the California Environmental Quality Act needs reform.
    The commission, which stands as an independent agency which investigates state policy issues and offers recommendations for reform, began holding hearings on CEQA in March 2023.

    By WILL GRAVES The Associated Press
    LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Four blissful, borderline mystical days at Oak Hill last spring opened up the world for Michael Block.
    It also forced the PGA club pro-turned-cult hero to close his office door at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club, the Mission Viejo course where he’s long served as the head professional.

    Parents will do anything to help their sick or injured child. Sadly, the American healthcare system often takes advantage of our desperation to overcharge and profiteer. Healthcare price transparency is urgently needed to protect families like mine and restore trust in the medical system. This Congress has the opportunity to deliver it.
