Feels more and more like the true defining human trait is ignoring immense danger or obvious moral depravity to have a little treat.

It might be hard but I think buddy coulda done better than half a billion. We seriously need to stop low-balling our own shit, and hell we need to stop with the “offers” as if we can’t just make laws. It’s insane that we’re like this.

They’re right, though. So many minorities die preventable deaths all the time and it’s normalized to an insane degree. The only reason this has really been kicking off is because now that the government feels comfortable attacking even the white people they no longer have anyone left they need to perform for it’s gloves off. This is the same violence that’s happened in the US since before it was even the US.

Until they get universal healthcare they haven’t ever been part of the civilized world as far as I’m concerned. It doesn’t even have to be that good, it just has to be not completely absent(the ACA does not do enough to redeem the rest).

Native of Puerto Rico? I’m amazed they let him sign-up at all.

Easy, set the price as $5mil. That’s literally it. The entire basis of a morally just, logical, and predictable way to set prices has been a lie for a very long time.

Above 2 million, maybe. Hell, make it 10 million for fun but holy shit do not let someone with 400 million pretend they aren’t disgustingly rich parasites.

There is certainly some careful wording there that more intelligent people than us need to be writing. Both of you make sense, but I’m sure there would be ways to weasel out of one or the other. Something like “this or that, whichever is greater” would be a good start.

Unfortunately, there are no folk heroes to save us. The fact of the matter is that we need to vote in all countries, and we need to vote not for “safe” centrists but for those who will actually push us towards more progressive policies. No “but this time is different, like the other twenty times, because of the scary right-wing!”, it’s do or die.

That’s really it. Robin Hood in this day and age is the IRS and whatever equivalents. Fund them, and give them the powers we need without fear.

I still would, as the increased productivity, once again, does not lead to reduced hours. Always more productive, always locked into a bullshit schedule.

So…they’re sending an immigration department from the Department of Homeland security to be security for atheletes in a foreign country? The fuck?

You’re very right, though for me the abiguity comes from not being confident the person using the thing understands.

I think you already get this, but “Applications are 150% of normal” means you add 50% and “applications are up 150%” means you add 1.5x the original. There’s really no room for interpretation it’s just that errors happen anyway.
