Ray and Debi talk about Cheeseburgers….Ray brags a teeny, tiny bit about his granddaughter Carter, aka CLT. He talks about Tripp and his engagement. He talks about how the kids keep growing and evolving. He goes on to text messages and asks Debi if she thinks Ray has more of an edge to him. They talk about the culture and how there is no discussion in society today compared to years past. Somehow he has gotten to businesses being able to make a decision to whom they do business and he gives examples. He goes back to the hard edge question. It was based on some of the text messages about Maine House Speaker Sara Gideon.

03-05-18 “Thinking of You”
Part 1: Ray and Debi have a discussion about the road tolls and electric cars. The uproar over electric car having to pay their fair share. Then they head to social media. Ray has taken a step back from posting as much because it has gotten so nasty. Debi has as well. She said she hardly goes on anymore because of it. They have a caller who talks about the same thing.
Part 2: Ray and Debi talk about the “fair” tax reform. The “Earned Income Tax Credit” is nothing but a welfare check. Why can’t they just call it what it is? Ray doesn’t understand how you can get more of a refund back than the taxes you pay in.
