You are not your car. As long as you can get out of your car and walk away your movement is not restricted.

No man ever became rich without profiting off the labor of others. “You didn’t build that, your employees did”. The wealthy don’t create wealth, labor creates wealth.

Because that is unworkable. The system would be incapable of paying for itself if it were funded entirely by the people who ride it. But the millionaires wouldn’t remain millionaires if they stopped funding their employees rides to work.

Who actually “earns” $500K +.

Yes, some people get that much, but that’s because they are profiting off the work of others.

True, the Irish haven’t invaded anyone since the around 500 BC. That’s when the Celts (who would become the Irish over time) arrived. Fun fact, there exist an ancient tradition of kinship between the Spanish and the Irish due to our shared Celtic roots. I understand that even today, an Irish person can claim Spanish…

Kids aren’t stupid, they see how their peers are treated, and they figure out why pretty quickly.

Let’s not get stupid people. “Graduation” is a ceremony, the Diploma is just a fancy piece of paper.

Transcripts are what’s important in proving whether or not one completed high school. I’ve not seen any stories that indicate that Chicago schools will be withholding transcripts.

You say that as if that’s a bad thing. If the league and the teams are separate entities they should both be taxed separately.

Sepico still gets hate mail to this day.

Went to Myrtle Beach once a few years ago. Always heard about how people loved it. Growing up near the Jersey Shore, I was not impressed.

As a white person I do my best to, “ fucking listen - to actual black people, not the whites pretending to stan for them”.

It’s the second part I have difficulty with. I actually agree that reparations should be paid to black people (and Native Americans for that matter) but I wonder what that would actually look like…

You’re “part of the most shit upon group you’ve ever heard of”?

Let me guess, you’re a middle-class white guy? Am I right?

You do realize that a republic is simply a variant form of democracy right? Or do you just like to be pedantic for no good reason?

Fair enough, but time and place are important. Just like you shouldn’t be doing burnouts in situations where others may be harmed or have their property damaged, you also shouldn’t roll coal in circumstances where you may harm others or their property.

You are absolutely correct. Corporations are not humans. In this particular case,  it seems that some human who worked for Blizzard decided they should do more for the guy, hence the all expense paid trip to BlizzCon. So yeah, corporations are not our friends, but occasionally someone who works at a corporation makes…

I don’t think you can get insurance that would cover failure to receive an NFL contract. You can insure against the possibility of an injury that would affect your ability to play.

You blame them for not fighting according to the laws of war against an enemy that would easily mow them down in a traditional military engagement?

Yes, hiding behind and killing civilians is deplorable. But our hands aren’t too clean in that respect either. Is killing civilians with a drone more virtuous than killing…

Funny, because executive level people do the same. You rarely hear of CEOs taking major pay cuts when the company loses, when they do it’s usually some symbolic gesture that won’t adversly affect them in any meanful manner

Starred because I too work in financial aid. At a Community College. I have worked at private colleges, but would never work at a proprietary school

Well obviously Disney isn’t the best corporate home for someone who thinks “kill all the Jews” is funny. Maybe Comedy Central will hire him.
