I’m not talking about it happening at this exact moment,... I don’t think its reasonable to speculate on how a wave of vehicles sold at bargain basement prices (insurance companies would have already written off the losses) would affect an already fucked up market for cars.

Others argue that it will essentially allow organized crime to launder American cars already in their possession, with the Mexican Association of Automobile Distributors calling it “a prize for the mafia.”

If they can hold on long enough for people to start seeing the benefits, it could really be a great thing for the Mexican people. Hopefully the CIA stays out of it rather than doing their usual “topple any foreign leader to the left of Mussolini” move...

And the vast majority of the people who had their cars stolen have had the replacements for years... Repatriating those cars would result in the insurance companies making a shitload of money, the used car market in the US would tank for a while which would probably have some negative affect on new cars, and the…

Or if he got caught, the complaint was determined to be “unfounded” by his friends, or the person making the complaint changed their mind entirely of their own volition and totally not because they were intimidated into it...

I think if people knew about the history of the PNW being initially envisioned as a literal white supremacist utopia they would be less surprised.

“The district is wholeheartedly committed to creating and maintaining a safe and welcoming environment for all students free from harassment and discrimination.”

All that stuff exists to maintain the school to prison pipeline, not to discipline primarily white organizations... We know this...

At this point, they’ve probably realized that it’s worthless in general. When they guy fomented an insurrection, no one that’s still on his side is going to give a shit about his sexual proclivities. I don’t even think it would be useful to blackmail him. I refuse to believe that he isn’t under the (not entirely…

Being the first Black Secretary of State, and involved in Iraq as he was it will be interesting to see how his legacy is handled. Bush was at least as complicit in the war, Rumsfeld was probably more complicit.

There’s a fucking ocean between Powell’s record and “spotless”...

I think the lack of real life support FOR unions from Democratic candidates in the last few decades has led to significantly softer support FROM unions for Democratic candidates.

DeShawn Watson has been ACCUSED of those things but not convicted. Gruden definitely sent those emails (and probably did much worse.) Watson is not currently playing, much to the detriment of the team. The management of the Texans aren’t exactly morally upstanding people, but they’re doing the thing that is right even…

You can ask yourself what the busybody fucking neighbor was looking for. I’m sure the house had been shown before to white people by white realtors and none of them received a second glance.

Bullshit. They’re not abandoning their most mature manufacturing line. Don’t make shit up.

I don’t have a problem with the amount of taxes I pay in Texas,... they’re just not exceptionally low like people think.

If they move to Texas,... you can’t just declare yourself to be a resident of Texas to get out of California taxes.

Are you sure all of those workers are moving to Texas? Do you know if those workers even WANT to move to Texas?

And the vast majority of the employees are staying in California.

Some people find it deeply offensive to have it implied that their beliefs could be negatively affecting the people around them... Learning things that make you question the belief system that your parents taught you is commonly referred to as “personal growth” by some.
