Casimir Radon posted:This had better have been good. The piece of poo poo deserves some jail time. These plea deals have been underwhelming. Nothing for Flynn, two weeks for Papadopoulos for what's basically treason for the first two and a few years for a lifetime of crimes for Cohen. Yeah, cooperation is a factor and all but these people sold out the country and they're getting off lighter than if they were corner boys. Oh, and of course everyone involved is guaranteed a lifelong paycheck from various right wing grifts. Fox News contributor? NRA president? Time will tell.

Casimir Radon posted:Some thought he might be ok. I thought his nutty border hawk poo poo might go to far. Didn't really dream that he'd become quite the disgrace he's proven himself to be over the last couple of years. So he fundamentally agrees with Trump, but with more discipline?

The difference is that this time around they have built their own echo chamber. No matter what Mueller does, Fox and the rest of that ecosystem are going to minimize it. And then Trump will continue to call the network news fake and the base will eat it right up. As long as this arrangement continues to work, the rest of the Republicans can't seriously challenge Trump since there is no other Republican electorate left. So unless something drives a wedge between these groups, and it won't because they all feed from the same money trough, there's no way Republican voters turn on Trump.

"Legit" based on some local guy's identification? Afghan tribal chiefs have spent the last couple decades making up flimsy excuses to get their enemies droned.

The Iron Rose posted:so about 54 million americans then? The median 401k balance is like $18k, which would generate retirement income of .... $100/month if you're lucky? 54m Americans may have 401ks, but the number who can expect to draw significant income from them relative to other sources like social security is far, far lower. For most people the movements of the stock market are just noise except to the extent they're indicative of the underlying economy.

Crakkerjakk posted:Yup: The thing is you don't have a choice about paying for a place to live. All else being equal between buying and renting, buying tends to be financially advantageous after 3-5 years although you shoulder far more of the risk than a renter. On the other hand buying more house than you would otherwise because "it's an investment" or "I'm building equity" is generally a poor decision. Real property is also about the only "investment" that allows non-professionals to take on significant leverage. Again, more risk, but that means that in an environment of generally increasing values (like, say, 1946-2007) it allows homeowners to see more gains than they would otherwise.

Plastic_Gargoyle posted:Did you actually read this? This isn't some Fox piece. quote:While calling the Triangle Waist Company owners 'greedy' was not a perfect assessment, it’s true that they were not saints. Blanck and Harris were hard-driving entrepreneurs who, like many other business owners, cut corners as they relentlessly pushed to grow their enterprise. Let's all weep over those unfortunate factory workers who locked in and killed 150 women.
