True. I imagine Cruz will stay in until one of his threads gets caught in an escalator, unraveling him and letting all the insects escape.

I can't imagine March will top February, but Super Tuesday is a good way start. I predict a Trump sweep, less mass shootings than days in the month, and McConnel allowing Supreme Court nominees.

Only one of those will happen for real.

I'd say Butch Otter isn't terrible (and he blamed a DUI arrest on having soaked his chewing tobacco in Jack Daniels, which is hilarious) but that's largely because our legislature is both terrible and not very competent, so Otter mostly just signs the stupid poo poo they send him.

Last year, the Idaho legislature accidentally made it impossible for the state to collect child support (they somehow thought it would lead to Sharia Law) for a few weeks before sanity prevailed, and they also set up a "constitutional defense fund" in 1995 to help the state fight the US Government in court, which resulted in nine straight court losses that burned through about $2 million trying to defend hilariously unconstitual laws.

Otter's a poo poo heel like the rest of them. He's just smart enough to not be as outward about it.

Good example is him directing the AG to fight tooth and nail to tell gays who were lined up to legally marry to gently caress off and go home. More than once.

As an Oklahoma voter I'm thrilled he not only won here, but won by a huge margin. Also I think Cruz is more evil than Trump, but I'm kinda happy I don't have to live with Oklahoma voting for a candidate that's going to be treated as a "wtf was wrong with you?" moment in American history.

Cruz and Trump are different kinds of evil. Cruz is Palpatine while Trump is more like Mussolini.

It just got more blatant after the ACA. I knew a manager at one of the main car parts retailers nationwide and he said they were requiring him to keep everyone under 30 hours or he'd be fired. He quit a few months later mostly because they couldn't keep anyone that was worth a poo poo, which was just about the most obvious result ever in an industry that relies on their staff having reasonable people skills and at least a basic knowledge of cars.

it'd be one thing if they raised pay to compensate, but of course they didn't do that.

But quarterly profits.

No but how is it legal to bill someone for 6x what experts have determined is a reasonable maximum without them explicitly consenting to your rates? And in the case of an anaesthetist helping with emergency surgery, when do you secure that consent? Before the operation when they are clearly under duress and possibly delirious with pain? Or after, while they are under the influence of powerful opiates?

Edit: like, I saw my dad's condition on drugs in the hospital before he had his major surgery and anyone who thinks that a person in that condition can consent to anything is either ignorant or a con artist.

Because gently caress you that's why. Our profits are worth more than your sorry, pathetic, sick self.

This is all completely at odds with the schooling I got, and I graduated just 3 years ago. Mine could be summed up as "slash and burn, and when it comes time to sift through the ashes use the disabled because you don't have to pay them minimum wage". Our ethics seminars (a single day of a speaker once a semester rather than a course) had gems such as "Gov. Ryan was right to sell those drivers licenses because he had an obligation to promote commerce in the state" (ignore it was bribery that got people killed). "Enron's activities were ethically grey, only got condemned because they failed" (because they had an obligation to their shareholders and that balances it out, had they been profitable it all would have been ok) and "Arthur Anderson was innocent and their company was destroyed by democrats playing politics" (because the SCOTUS found a procedural mistake in how the case was handled; this was presented as the Supreme Court exonerated them but by then it was too late and that poor poor company had been destroyed by market hating liberals)

Hahahahahaha you went to University of Phoenix.
