paranoid randroid posted:all this idiot hand-wringing about class war reminds me of the democrats attitude after the 2004 election where the popular consensus was that well we just didnt explain ourselves to the insane rear end in a top hat demographic well enough!, completely ignoring the idea that you are never, ever, ever going to get the vote of someone who believes that whites are the most oppressed group in the modern united state. Better vote for the rich whites. They have your interests covered.

Talmonis posted:The unmitigated glee that most of the thread takes at the death knell of the only leftish candidate's campaign is pretty depressing. Not that it's a surprise in the least. Huzzah for the Democratic firing circle! The death knell of the Sanders campaign was when Biden refused to run. Also Clinton is in aggregate as left as Bernie Sanders, deal with it! Talmonis posted:And I agree with you, but it's really lovely to mock them for believing that things can change for the better at any more than a snails pace. I mean, sure, screw the ones on Reddit. It's Reddit. But folks here don't deserve that kind of poo poo....usually. Hillary Clinton is already a change for the better, and also Sanders only ever had a chance if Biden had run. Well I suppose Sanders still has a chance if Hillary literally dies, so there's that too I guess. Logikv9 posted:Bernie supporters love victimizing themselves because it gives them a rationale on why they are losing. Because obviously the reason isn't because the majority of voters wanted Clinton. My favorite example of this was person who decried that Clinton was winning "without the support of the base" because "only women and minorities and people over 30" massively supported her. For some reason they thought young white males constitute the Democratic base??

Let the DNC and Bernie hash it out. It is the #1 story on Google News right now. Clinton asking the DNC to reinstate his access, if he fires the people behind the breach, is the 100% correct move. If only because it gives the DNC and DWS political cover to back down with out losing face.

So I was reading an article that mentioned how the new spending bill extended solar and wind tax credits, which is good. However, it also said that solar penetration in the U.S. is less than half a loving percent?! How the hell is it so low? Haven't we had solar for decades now?

Yeah but it hasn't been very cost competitive until pretty recently, costs have been plummeting over the past decade. Hopefully the situation will start to improve over the next few years.

It would even make her come out looking like a charitable good guy, honestly. The lawsuit complicates things but that can be withdrawn or written off as a bureaucratic thing. It was nice seeing Dems as the solid, united party of sanity and general niceness in their first debate, it would be a great point for Clinton to hammer home tomorrow night.

A Winner is Jew posted:Disney paid something like $4b for that IP. Got to make that back some how. Disney has already made back the money they spent on Star Wars IIRC. Nobody of note has ever thought Disney wouldn't make their investment back pretty quickly. One of the biggest IPs in the world in the hands of one of the most well-known corporations in the world? Even making a TV show like The [s]Ewok[/]s Jar-Jar Adventures wouldn't be enough to derail the gravy train. Disney could've paid 10 billion for it and it'd still have been seen as a good move on their part. They are going to make obscene amounts of money off of Star Wars. That Episode 7 is also really good only reinforces that. The only real question is when and where will the Disney Star Wars theme park open up, and will they make an Epcot-sized Death Star structure in the middle? Because they totally should. Nonsense posted:I still cannot believe Snyder has gotten away with everything he has, and is able to continue living comfortably and without worry about any legal ramifications. Legal ramifications? I'm surprised people haven't executed him in the streets and claimed self-defense afterwards. 7c Nickel posted:How about "the pigfucker vote"? Better? No? You seem to be confused.

GreyjoyBastard posted:...What happened in 09? If i remember correctly, the stimulus was really good for solar. Either that chart is reflecting actual market costs, so reflecting all the rebates and tax breaks and grants going towards the projects, or it's just reflecting that those incentives helped push money into R&D.
