Tech Mogul Offered Woman $100k to Take Off Mask

A multi-millionaire tech mogul is being slammed for making a mid-air offer to a woman on the same flight. Steve Kirsch, the tycoon who is credited with inventing the computer mouse, claims he offered his fellow first-class passenger $100,000 to take off her COVID-19 face mask. He bragged about his offer on Twitter but some people were outraged. Kirsch tells Inside Edition, “People think I am aggressively going after people, I’m not doing that at all.” He also says they were “having a friendly conversation.”

What’s going to happen to Big Tech’s laid off workers?

Technology is part of our everyday lives and necessary for most societies to function. This increasing dependency has led to massive growth in the tech sector and, with it, a proliferation of high paying jobs.

Following the industry’s recent struggles, those exorbitant salaries are now being scrutinized like never before.

“What has happened in the last three to four years is the pay for the other non-Big Tech companies have gone up, and many of the startups are really upset because they can’t burn cash at those rates,” Ben Leong, a professor of computer science at the National University of Singapore, told CNBC.

“The Big Tech companies will continue to pay what they used to pay – they always pay a lot,” he added.

“I suspect the growth in the median pay will either stagnate or may even drop a little bit.”

So, is the bubble bursting for tech workers? Watch the video above to find out more.

BREAKING NEWS: PRESIDENT TRUMP CALLS SPEAKER RYAN TO PULL HEALTH CARE REPLACEMENT BILL AHEAD OF PLANNED VOTE

The House of Representatives is planning to vote on the American Health Care Act — the Republican bill to repeal and replace Obamacare — today. A specific time for the vote has not yet been announced, but if in fact it does happen, it’s expected to take place sometime in the late afternoon Eastern time.

President Donald Trump is endorsing the Republican proposal on health care as “a great plan,” ahead of a make-or-break vote in the House.

The president tweeted Friday that “After seven horrible years of ObamaCare (skyrocketing premiums & deductibles, bad healthcare), this is finally your chance for a great plan!”
The vote had been scheduled for late Thursday but was postponed after administration officials failed to convince skeptical conservative Republicans to support the bill.
Trump claimed he was finished negotiating with GOP holdouts and determined to pursue the rest of his agenda, win or lose.
Barring any further delays, the vote is expected to take place later Friday.

Judge Neil Gorsuch faces day three

So far, the hearings have been relatively predictable. While Democrats still bristle at Republicans’ success in completely stalling President Obama’s attempts to fill the Court’s open seat, Gorsuch has refused to comment on the matter. He also refused to comment on whether he’d rather fight a horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses, a question posed by one senator’s son.

EastIdahoNews.com investigates asphalt company after business complaints

IDAHO FALLS — A number of Idaho Falls business owners are angry at a local asphalt company for not doing the job it promised.

“They are fast-working scam artists,” commercial property owner Rick Christensen said. “What they were doing is nothing I have ever seen done to a parking lot.”

Christensen and Tim Colling, the owner of Colling Pest Solutions, say Joles Asphalt was hired to refinish parking lots at their businesses, but they claim the paving company did not use the right materials or complete the job.

They said they were scammed Joles, which used a tactic that has been used by similar paving companies around the country.

Joles Asphalt owner Charlie Joles disputes the accusations and tells EastIdahoNews.com his company offered to redo the projects to make things right.

What happened
Christensen says Joles Asphalt contacted him last week and offered to patch two holes on his lot at a bargain price. Workers with the company said they had extra asphalt left over from a job on Skyline Road.

Christensen gave Joles the go-ahead and later went to his property to inspect the work. He says he was shocked to see the workers spreading gravel across his lot. Christensen confronted them and they maintained he had agreed to the work being done and they promised to give him a good price on the entire lot.

“I felt stuck because I did agree to their work,” Christensen tells EastIdahoNews.com. “But they were doing more than I agreed to and honestly I didn’t know whose misunderstanding it was.”
