We start with a story over in Eastland and Cisco regarding a petition for alcohol sales to become legal in that area.


Charlie says: "people are going to drink if they want to, so why let other towns get your money. You might also get a few more jobs."

Sarah adds: "I can't believe there are still towns/counties that do not sell alcohol. Kind of stupid. I don't even drink and it makes me laugh."

Robert has this to say: "It will bring in more tax dollars to the local economy. You can already drink at private clubs anyway, so nothing will change alcohol wise."

Our next story involves the federal government as it has created a new database where you can submit complaints about your credit card company. We asked on Facebook if anyone would use it.

Rob jumped in with the following: "So OK, first the government gives them billions in "bail out" money, now they want to hear our complaints? I would like to complain about the billions they got, yet my interest rate goes up. Yeah, I'll start there"

Randy: "Can I complain that they keep sending me a bill every month?"
Now to our final story, a new study suggests women in their 20's are making more money than men of the same age.

Sheryl says: "About time!"

Courtney chimes in with the following: "Where is this money you speak of?"

Jessica closes us out with this: "women work harder than men when it comes to their jobs. Men do just enough to keep their job. So women advance more quickly and more money comes with advancement."
