You guys have seen this painting before It's been on Christmas cards, it illustrates the traditional American Thanksgiving, it's chintzy Americana bullshit. That painting is called Freedom From Want. It was part of a series of four paintings Norman Rockwell did to illustrate a speech given by President Roosevelt. In that speech Roosevelt laid out the four freedoms all human beings should have. Freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. Freedom From Want doesn't just illustrate a traditional American scene, it illustrates a goal, a principle. That everyone in the world should have enough to secure "a healthy peacetime life". And that wasn't some far off vision, some meaningless statement of morals. That was an immediate goal. One that the US government should act to make happen. Most politicians nowadays will at least pay lip service to the other three freedoms. But freedom from want hasn't just been forgotten, it's been loving buried. That quote from Bernie Sanders is the first time in my entire life I've seen a politician talk about freedom from want.

Concerned Citizen posted:i mean whether or not it's "electioneering" can be left up to you - the ads were donation sign up ads, but you could construe it as an appeal for a vote rather than a donation. there isn't much difference between the two. but anyway, the main thing is that 100% of the costs of those digital ads and staffing expenses came from hfa's share of the money. Your claim that the digital ads could have been funded by HFA since they could have been predominantly funded by donations <= $2,700 is likely false. The vast majority of contributions come from donors contributing over $2,700. I looked at the FEC data between 2015-09-01 and 2016-06-31 since that is what the politico article looked at. The California primary was 2016-07-07. Note that my analysis only spans this timeframe. I see about $109 million raised for the HVF. 42k total contributors. An average donor contributed ~$2,594 on each year. Contributions under $2,700 per year (including those $2,700 amounts from the very big donors) that could have been sent to HFA made up only ~$25.8 million for 23.6% of the fundraising total. Donors that could afford >= $2,700 made up 84.8% of the contributions. Donors contributing over $10,000 per year made up 78.6% of the contributions. Donors contributing over $50,000 per year made up 53% of the contributions. Donors contributing over $100,000 per year made up 44% of the contributions. Again, politico reported: quote:Beyond the transfers, much of the fund’s $42 million in direct spending also appears to have been done to directly benefit the Clinton campaign, as opposed to the state parties. In effect, people at George Clooney's $300k plate fundraisers could write a check that would be used for electioneering purposes in the primary well in excess of the $2,700 per year contribution limit to Hillary's campaign. The Hillary campaign got around this limitation by using HVF as the electioneering vehicle since the HVF itself could not give $300k from large donors directly to the Hillary campaign. Nominally according to unenforced election law, joint fundraising efforts like HVF are not supposed to be used for electioneering during a primary. Particularly galling examples of mega donations to the HVF are the Pritzkers. Combined, this couple on 2015 and 2016 donated a combined total of 1,453,600 during the primary season. The FEC data lists contributions as small as $1. I assumed that having the same first name, last name, city, state, and zip meant you were the same person. I accounted for separate $2,700 contribution limits to HFA in the separate years 2015 and 2016. The politico article made the following claims about fundraising, spending, and distributions between the timeframes of Sept 2015 and June 2016: HVF raises 142 million DNC gets 24.4 million HFA gets 37.6 million State Parties get $800k https://www.politico.com/story/2016/07/dnc-leak-clinton-team-deflected-state-cash-concerns-226191 There is then about ~$33 million in difference between the contribution totals in the FEC data and what politico claims. A very large amount of that discrepancy goes away if I include all the FEC data up to the publishing date of that article. I don't know what is different between the FEC data set and politico's reporting. The only reasonable conclusion is that the HVF was primarily funded by the wealthy donating way over $2,700 per year which could not be given directly to HFA. comedyblissoption has issued a correction as of 02:00 on Oct 30, 2017 |

navyjack posted:Is the gameplay fun? I’m all for good stories, but the shooty bits have to work too. My biggest issue is that the maps all tend to be dreary ruins/industiral corridors. The gun sounds are anemic too. Other wise playing on the difficulty setting above normal (theres like 6 different difficulties) the game is well balanced between stealth and gunplay, which fits my ideal play style of "try to stealth, then screw up and kill everyone while duelwielding automatic shotguns"
