That’s entirely possible, I’m about as far from the industry as can be. I just generally think if you have too much work raise your prices, and if you have too little lower them. If you have an alternative that pays more then it makes all the sense in the world to laugh off lowball offers if you don’t want to do them.

44% Black and 50% of people in poverty being Black isn’t great but I would be surprised if the gap wasn’t closer than average for an American city.

Well, or your expectations are unrealistically high.  You don't want to waste time with lowballers, but if you haven't worked in three years you might not be worth as much as Amy Schumer at her peak.  Not that I am good at that kind of thing, or that she should have worked for free...

I'll see your Soul Man and raise you Robert Downey Junior in Tropic Thunder.  2008.

Well, saved as in arrested, it’s not like anyone is giving them anything, or doing them any actual favors to my knowledge. Presumably they will be pressured to testify and then be deported, or jailed, or put back on the street. Maybe some of them have someplace decent to go, but I wouldn’t bet on it. That said if they…

His stroke you mean I think, but I was otherwise very pleased with your Cogent Comment.  This person seemed like a much bigger fan of FDR than I am, the FED messed things up for Hoover IMO, Roosevelt had to bring them in line, but the whole rationing households to literally a gallon of gas a week and instituting Jew…

I think that range voting makes more sense than ranked choice, I don’t quite understand why it is so much less popular(except in business, Amazon gets it, you don’t have to rank stuff to rate it). You are correct in identifying the game theory in multi-candidate primaries as broken.

Plus I imagine it's tax free, so if real estate taxes in NYC are as absurd as upstate just the building being owned by a non-profit takes ~50 million a year from NYC public schools, which are already a national disgrace.

Has Harvard ever said of one of their students or professors, “Oh, her? She only got in because she’s a Native American Woman.” It doesn’t seem very likely to me. Not that Warren wouldn’t have gotten in anyway, but IIRC Harvard admissions:racism as Vatican:Molestation. Almost negative credibility. 

A million dollar sex tape empire isn't cool these days.  A billion dollar sex tape empire is like a thousand of those.

Well, because there aren’t price controls is a good reason. Like if the government says you have to buy a pebble from me or get fined, and I can charge whatever I want and you have to pay up or get fined in exchange for nothing you would be right to be annoyed. Obviously good health insurance is something everyone…

Yeah, that SUCKED. The one election in my lifetime I didn’t bother to vote in, because I had just moved and didn’t have my shit together.  Moved to central Florida...

“Apparently failed saving throw."

Imo the government should set up some kind of alternative way of compensating drug discovery, like using a carbon tax to fund an award of a certain percentage of the social good a drug did for some number of years. Monopoly pricing just doesn’t mix well with drugs and insurance for a bunch of reasons.

I think Churchill said that about the hun lol

Great for IP lawyers though...

Ha, Yeah. The best ending was where you don’t cuff him and just leave. Which I thought was kind of cool, letting you deescalate and leave.  Although the war may come anyway.

I bet his parents are fine too.  Lol.

Hopefully not his last surprise!

Is he sure it isn't nonprofiteering?
