    2025/07/14
    Clark has recommended shopping for auto insurance as rates keep rising.

Later - Clark is in favor of businesses setting credit card surcharges in the U.S. as they do in other countries, but some gas stations have been caught charging outrageous amounts, and you need to be aware before you go to the pump.
