“A judge in Delaware, where many big U.S. companies are incorporated, ruled on Tuesday that a small town that allows corporations to vote in municipal elections was not violating the state’s constitution. ”Delaware Superior Court Judge Craig Karsnitz said the beach town of Fenwick Island was not diluting human votes by allowing companies and other legal entities that own property to cast votes in municipal elections.“
Someone please look into this judge's financials.
Hey, could we not do an Ebola pandemic? Because that shit is terrifying.
I remember seeing a post earlier this year about libreoffice doing a web based version.
Stop trying to put me in a box.
Also I suppose a reminder that Avi Lewis is on the fediverse and active, so that's cool.
And yet, here is his government choosing to do business with this company despite definitely suffering a political cost for it. And trying to pass it off as a Canadian company in such a brazen way that anyone with a modicum of self-respect should be insulted that they think you are that stupid. He didn't need to do this, at all. Maybe it's coincidental, but it doesn't look good to me.
I think calling placing his investments in a blind trust "divestment" is playing a little fast and loose with the definition. He still owns the stocks, he's just not allowed to manage them or keep track of them. But we didn't hit the guy with the amnesia ray, he knows he's invested in these companies.
Iran has already won the conflict. What's holding things up at this point is Trump wants them to give him some kind of concession so that he can declare victory and, at least in his own mind, look like a winner. But why the hell would Iran do that?
I don’t think Trudeau could have whipped up the level of support that Carney did,
Why not? We were being directly attacked economically and having our sovereignty threatened. A dog could have whipped up plenty of support in that context as long as it was painting itself as a nationalist dog. You are way, way overestimating the effect Carney had on the election and vastly underestimating the effect Trump had, in my opinion.
Whatever the visual equivalent of nominative determinism is, I suppose.
