I feel like the answer to most of these open ended questions are that the taxpayers are going to waste a Yuuge! amount of money on lawsuits from a ton of different states. Things will get tied up in court, their will be rulings, rulings will be ignored, etc. If nothing else, we can rest assured we are going to see our tax dollars lit on fire. Budgets, especially states, are going to be wrecked

Right… that’s why there should be a high salary and good pension for running, getting elected and serving. If you can run once and technically retire decently, it would incentivize normal people to run. Hopefully once you have enough regular folk you can ban insider trading.

But even as it is, insider trading only really helps the people with money already. What am I gonna take the pittance I have in the bank and invest it? I would only be slightly less poor, even with some amazing trades.

It’s not even the bare minimum, it’s dangerous. Every idiot, every American knows it applies to the total, it’s never been a realistic conversation. Also, I doubt more than 15% could even tell you who he was let alone when FDR served. The illiteracy rate in America is getting really disturbing.

Him doing this is just opening the conversation, it makes it seem like he agrees that it currently reads as non consecutive… when no person acting in good faith would agree with agree with that.

It’s easier to convince your neighbors that it was the Republicans doing, when they have full control.

Fox news propoganda is hard to rival. I usually enter any political conversation with a conservative voter with “what are you voting for”? Usually leads to a more engaging conversation

They also lose a bunch of customers, like 1-3% of them according to differing plans.

I think you might be looking at this wrong. Over 20% of agricultural products are exported in the US, less than 15% is imported. Food is a substitution commodity, if you can’t buy one kind, you will buy another.

There is and will be no shortage of food in America. Food grown in central and south America? Maybe. This will just hurt all those farms exporting soy beans when the retaliation comes in to play.

When I really don’t know the answer to something new or interesting, I have to look it up. These are both fun facts to know.

According to Wikipedia the congressional pensions started in the 40s.

Probably could have bought one less nuke at the onset, put the money in a bank for 70 years and been able to pay for everything with that money and still have some ruble left over to destabilize Europe with.

Do we know if he also fucks children?

I bet on incompetence

I don’t think that’s a necessarily bad thing. You don’t want to pay politicians less money, when there is very little for anyone not rich or corrupt to run as it is.

In fact… I think we should raise all of their salaries to $200k a year, and implement a $10 national minimum wage. Each congress members salary is a multiple of 20 of the minimum wage in their state. So let’s say your state has a $15 minimum wage, congratulations you make $250,000 rather than the base.

This is all conjecture right?

The victims apparently were part of the bid process, and accepted a lower offer from The Onion.

Only to become appointed AG

LOL

He must have Ketamine bladder by now, no?

Fuck Garland. I hope the right rips him to shreds so everyone can see that giving these people a pass just further enables them. You can’t play “both sides” when one side doesn’t care about the rules or truth.

First in what way is Sanderson similar to Clancy? Sanderson books are massive tomes of epic fantasy. Also how is it not “literature”? Or do you just consider only non-fiction “literature”

Instead of reading Clancy read Matthew Reilly. I suggest you start with Ice Station. It’s got everything you need, French Baddies, Spaceships, Hovercraft, and even killer Killer whales!
