C-Euro posted:My political and economic IQ is admittedly low so someone help me out here- one argument I've always heard against raising the corporate tax rate is that businesses will leave the US and set up shop elsewhere where the rate is lower. That's mostly bullshit, right? I've always understood that America has one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the world, but I also know that there are offshore shell companies or whatever that can play into that. Someone explain this line of reasoning to me assuming that it isn't crap. the actual tax rate which makes corporations leave is actually really high, the US while having high nominal tax rates have one of the lower effective tax rates in the world due to many many loopholes and exemptions

What's weird is the cops knew the woman rented a clown costume, got a cake from publix 90 minutes before the murder, was almost certainly banging the victim's husband, and had easy access to various vehicles. No case for 20 years, though.

If global climate change alone makes things worse for 30 years straight, even if Democrats get into office to try to fix it, as strong as the pendulum effect is now, it'll be even stronger in a world where "are you better off than you were 8 years ago?" is no longer the question people should be asking to determine if the president's doing a good job with the situation at hand

Uncle Wemus posted:Surely CENTRISTS will stop the rising tide of far right candidates quote:In private, Hindenburg often complained to his associates that he missed the quiet of his retirement and bemoaned that he had allowed himself to be pressured into running for president. He carped that politics was full of issues such as economics that he did not understand, and did not want to. He was surrounded by a coterie of advisers antipathetic to the Weimar constitution. These advisers included his son Oskar, Wilhelm Groener, Otto Meißner, and General Kurt von Schleicher. This group were known as the Kamarilla. The younger Hindenburg served as his father's aide-de-camp and controlled politicians' access to the President, enjoying far more power than what his position would suggest, making him into "the constitutionally unforeseen son of the President". in 1932, a literal centrist coalition decided to vote Hindenburg back into power, saying that the alternative (Hitler) was so much worse than having an incompetent demented idiot as president quote:Hindenburg was persuaded to run by the Kamarilla, and supported by the Centre Party, the DVP and the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), which regarded him as the only hope of defeating Hitler. a year later, Hindenburg awards the chancellorship to Hitler and signs the Enabling Act the rest is history

Internet Webguy posted:twitter videos have ads now For a long time I asked "but how do they make money?" when reading anything about Twitter. Corporations have realized from Microsoft's "embrace, extend, extinguish" strategy that giving away a product for free and then starting to charge once you've secured market dominance is a viable strategy, and they seek to apply it to social media. When it comes time to start putting ads on the site, people aren't having any of it and they leave for a newer site, but investors haven't figured that out yet. It's a tulip craze where people are buying it because they think they can con bigger fools into buying it.

As much as I dislike Twitter it's going to be bad when it collapses because we're losing a very valuable conduit from journalists/scientists/average people relaying breaking news to the rest of us I really can't imagine any other platform being as good at that as Twitter is. There's always going to be too much garbage clogging it up
