Did you really say that investors lend money for a lower interest rate? I assume that’s a typo. But of course, the reason why investors invest in the first place is to get a higher return on their money. They just take and take, more and more. The idea is to “earn” more than they spend.

Elect me Dictator-For-Life and I will direct the IRS to assume that douchebag columnists are paid 10-20% more than what their paycheck says, and tax them accordingly.

You’re talking economic theory. In real life, lower labor costs mean higher profits, which are then hoarded by investors. Period.

Love the Invisible Handjob!

Will there be a transcript anywhere? Even if the audio were working, I usually don’t watch vids because I can read 10x faster than it takes to listen to someone talking.

Yeah, but in this country when a businessman cheats his employees they’re considered heroes and given lavish praise and tax cuts.

Pretty good, but you forgot “ARGLE BARGLE THEY’D HAVE TO RAISE PRICES AND THEN NOBODY COULD AFFORD TO EAT OUT AND THEN THE BUSINESS WOULD GO UNDER AND EVERYBODY WOULD GET FIRED AND THE COMMUNISTS WIN!!!”

Millions, maybe tens of millions drive for a living. Many tens of millions more rely on those drivers as customers, tenants, and taxpayers.

As a general rule, I loathe tyepcasting. That said, I’ll make an exception for Maggie playing another sexy type.

You must have applied a lot of concentration to come up with a reply that camp.

So, if Worcester is pronounced Woostah and Gloucester is pronounced Glostah, how come Dochester isn’t Doostah?

This. A CEO who makes 1,000 times more than the average worker does not buy 1,000 suburban split-level homes or 1,000 Chevies or Fords.

If you think the economy is tough on the poor now, just wait until robot cars and trucks wipe out every driving job. How many people drive trucks, taxis, busses, etc? We’re talking tens of millions of jobs taken by machines that don’t buy anything and don’t pay rent or taxes. The billionaires who own them will become…

I’m so disillusioned to hear of this. I would have thought that The Black Keys and The White Stripes are like Ebony and Ivory, fitting together in perfect harmony.

New headline: “Room full of cops have no problem with fellow cop groping and harrassing waitress trying to do her job”.

I love pointing out top Regressives that replacing a worker with a robot means replacing a consumer with...nothing.

So, you want to make sex legal to sell, but illegal to buy?
