Freaquency posted:Correct. No one is reaching for the keys after a fifth of Jack and then stopping saying “oh gee if I kill someone I owe their kid child support” Well another point is that if you’re already killing the parent, this likely doesn’t help the kid too much as you can’t earn child support money while in prison

So the solution here is to punish them... less?

Okay then we add it as a modifier then? Killing a single parent/sole provider? So the poor folks simply go to prison longer?

LeeMajors posted:Is anyone here saying that? I mean why not just execute them and give all their belongings to the victims? Let’s just execute everyone who wrongs anyone else, for that matter. Yes, they are. It was heavily inferred by their absolutely disgusting of the suggestion. I was asking what other suggestions might be. It’s ironic you take my statement and throw your own inference on there… then say this quote:why not just execute them and give all their belongings to the victims? Let’s just execute everyone who wrongs anyone else, for that matter. Who said this? Someone on Twitter? Can’t tell what you’re replying to and can only assume this weird hyperbole is directed at some Twitter boogie man because it’s certainly nobody here.

seiferguy posted:The solution should be that the government can support a child who is now parentless instead of putting the burden upon someone who has no means to pay it. I mean, yeah, absolutely. I agree with you in a perfect world that is the response. No question. In that world - You likely have less drunk drivers because we have actual mental health support and don’t live in a society that simply lives for angry punishment. But that’s not reality. We can’t even discuss it in good faith without folks bending over backwards to make weird creepy hyperbole like the above. There’s a reason folks ignore genuine questions like mine (making the sentencing take into consideration the victim being a single parent / it being a modifier, etc) and simply scream “fix it!” And when you offer genuine attempts at a solution… it gets called racist and classist.

See, what’s funny is, it sure reads that you’re so eager to say the final paragraph you’re not actually realizing we’re asking the exact same questions for the exact same reasons. Not that you’re wrong to - it’s absolutely an understandable view to have. It feels impossible to get the system anywhere near something that resembles justice but I have to think we can get there. One view seems to think it’s absolutely impossible to change - other being that maybe we can try to brainstorm change and assume it’s possible. My question was a genuine one - do you add it as a modifier? I was leading up to the very point you just made with regards to it being elderly, etc. These are all valid questions, I just need to figure out what change makes sense. I thought the child support one did but the counters also made sense so I’m trying to determine… wtf can be done Amy Pole Her fucked around with this message at 08:18 on Jan 5, 2023 |

LeeMajors posted:That was explicitly why I said that. Basically you inferred something that was absolutely not there because you took that one post as a singular statement and reduced it to some other intent/flippant comment that nobody was making. Edit Whoa Amazon laid of 17,000 people? When you remember that’s more folks than most Fortune 500 companies have… it really hammers it home how much trouble Amazon must be in.

Bird in a Blender posted:I think we're seeing a correction after 2020 and 2021 caused a huge rush in stock purchases and hiring. The economy is in such a weird spot right now where there are still more jobs than people, but the big tech firms are doing massive layoffs. Seems like the economy is bad for only one sector right now. I couldn't find any info on what type of jobs these layoffs are affecting, or maybe it's just across the board. Holy moly. You weren't kidding. I was trying to find out what department or area most of the layoffs were from and saw this in the same article. quote:Facebook parent Meta recently announced 11,000 job cuts, the largest in the company’s history.

Ether Frenzy posted:Well either I invented it or yes, I have heard of it Certainly not as common a concept in LA spots as Chicago/East Coast bars though. Had to ask. Pickle-back shots are common enough you can say them out loud, normally, and we’d know what we you mean. Key West pushes em so they’re a staple down there. Most port towns seem to have their own bar that claims ownership of their origin (Jacksonville, Wilmington, etc) since Pickles were so easy to transport in ships etc

Excited for Ford to absolutely destroy these guys who are jacking up the prices, but the overall numbers are crazy. Ford's already announced they're expanding their line, so its pretty much the opposite of what I quoted.

Honestly my Audi SUV is a great tow vehicle for the smaller stuff and I have an F250 for the big boats that are routinely 10k+ lbs. The new F150s and Silverado 1500s actually tow as much as my older F250 while being a tiny tiny bit smaller (but bigger than that generation F150) in a MUCH more comfortable package. The new F150 Hybrid Platinums are selling for 100k while still being able to tow 10,500. Impressive but whose that for? No dude spending 100k on his hybrid truck is towing a drat thing.
