"I don't think the tax conversation is productive because we are going to be 100% higher than New Jersey if we take that proposal. New Jersey's current corporate tax rate is 11%.

I think it's ridiculous that the Democrats are calling for such action. Let's face it, when she made that post [which Fine was responding to], she went back and tried to say well she was just kidding. There was no joking in that post.

Ever since I heard Taylor Swift's "Welcome to New York" for the first time, the city called my name. Of course, I was grateful for my suburban upbringing in California, but my town was too small for my aspirations. I wanted to live the life of a fashion journalist, and to me, that required being in New York City. Fixated on my goal, I mapped out a plan in college to secure as many internships and part-time writing gigs as possible,
To shake things up and bring a little excitement to your routine, consider a hotel staycation. It's an ideal way to spruce up a month with few plans on the calendar, or to celebrate a special occasion.
