Big Island Organizations & Programs Losing Funding

[HiloJulie]

Bicker, bicker, bicker.

Julieweb is just one giant Bicker Board now. Hate, anger, and long winded histrionic posts ad nauseam. It helps a little if you put her on ignore but she posts after nearly every other post so it still seeps through no matter what you do. Two vacations led to temporary reform and improvement but she is who she is and she is Punaweb. I wish you all the best.

Hate? Anger? 

Where? Sounds like a bit of projection there.

Long winded posts? Ad nauseum?

What is PunaWeb for? 

A free flowing debate of topics or a place where some posters are allowed to post nonsensical and/or totally untrue statements as pure fact and the ones who rebut them or ask for more discussion are the problem? Are full of hate? Anger?

A good example, look at this post below:

Five staff members at the Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge were among the more than 400 employees with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service who were fired earlier this month as part of the drastic downsizing of the federal government by the Trump Administration...

1.25% doesn't seem to be a drastic downsizing?

First of all, under any grade school math education do you take 5 workers laid off and divide that by the 400 laid off workers and say that’s the percent of downsizing.

The correct math for the percent of downsizing is to take the total number of laid off workers and divide that by the TOTAL amount of workers employed.

Further, the five staff members at the Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge that were laid off represent 50% of the workforce at the Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge and the 400 number is the total number of workers laid off nationwide by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.

So then, just what is PunaWeb in existence for?

I sure would like to discuss these topics.
