Also that plan for the post office getting into banking and offering the cheque cashing services of payday lenders without the interest rates needs to happen.

Man anyone who thinks Reid is a wuss because of his style of speaking should take a look at his exploits before becoming a Senator. Dude talks like that because he knows motherfuckers are gonna god drat listen. E: it should just go without further elaboration that he was head of the NV gaming commission in the late 70s/early 80s. Remember watching Casino with your lovely Italian in-laws as a kid? Yeah, that's the poo poo he had to put up with. FAUXTON fucked around with this message at 02:44 on May 12, 2016 |

Sweet jesus I made the mistake of engaging someone on facebook re the uber poo poo and suddenly my newsfeed is filled with libertarian postings. And I cannot for the life of me wrap my loving head around the mindset. "The city of Austin never should have started this in the first place!" "How dare they chase off a company, they're anti-free market!" "If a consenting adult decides to perform insurance fraud then that's on them as a rational actor!"

Reid is definitely willing to kick it up a notch. He choked the last guy that tried to bribe him. In front of FBI agents.

Now that I've paid more attention for a few months, I agree that she deserves all the vitriol USPOL directs at her, if not more. Democrats in general are corrupt scum just like the Republicans. It's just that the industries that bribe them are less terrible than the ones that bribe the GOP. I really wish more people understood this.

The arguments I'm seeing are basically Austin kicked out some sort of golden paradise for Uber drivers where the free market reigned, people could make money hand over fist... and then Big Government came.

You can make half-decent cash if you keep rolling with passengers, but assuming that you're using your own car the job pays ~$7/hour after you account for your gas and wear & tear on the car. It's not terrible if you like people, but if you like people you'd be better off working at a bar.

Someone in the White House really needs to be put in charge of keeping FBI Director Comey's mouth clamped tightly shut at all times.  quote:James Comey, the director, said that while he could offer no statistical proof, he believed after speaking with a number of police officials that a “viral video effect” — with officers wary of confronting suspects for fear of ending up on a video — “could well be at the heart” of a spike in violent crime in some cities.

Isn't the whole "Ferguson Effect" jump in violent crimes actually just a load of bullshit? That there is no noticeable increase at all? Of course the FBI director is probably right that many cops feel this way but that's an indictment on the cops not the people taking the videos. "Oh no, we're actually being held accountable now for our unjust abuse and brutality how can we go on!" If they just did their loving jobs without outrageously overstepping their authority then no one would be taking videos of them and everyone wins!
