That’s the way I feel about the 3/5ths compromise being in the Constitution. An eternal mark of shame to remind us of how we got here.

Because it’s a corporation’s job to make me trust them. If I buy an Android and it fails to meet my expectations or how they advertised it, I will buy an Iphone. The free-market is an incentive based system designed for companies to compete for consumer trust. And because our country has been based on this

Amoral =/= immoral. When something is amoral, all that means is that moral considerations, such as they are defined, do not enter into a thing’s decision making process. Most companies are not ran morally or immorally, as 100% of either probably wouldn’t be good for business. Of course a company only makes decisions

“...One point being, we should be able to discuss this without instantly shaming/closing off the opposing viewpoint.”

Chase Field with the roof and panels open? pretty good

A better way to describe both the US and Mexico is like they are the good teams in a mid-major basketball conference. No threat to win it all, but good enough to get to the sweet 16 or elite 8 if things go their way. International soccer has a similar exponential curve to college basketball in that the top handful of

So tired of the popular vote argument. It is such a red herring. It’s like arguing your team should have won the game because they had more passing yards.

OF COURSE there was gonna be a backlash.

Only regret is that someone didn’t give that cheap-ass Salcedo a doing.

Getting a tie in the infamous Estadio Azteca is a huge accomplishment. It is quite possible that they have most hostile fans in the world. 4 points in the last 2 matches is not too shabby.

You’d think Trump would’ve made people realize that you don’t want the government in charge of who’s allowed to assemble.  

To be fair, a billionaire owner having 0.1% of his net worth invested in a company that has 1% of its assets invested in a bankrupt casino company as part of a hundred various companies it’s invested in really *shouldn’t* be a story. The story is of course that the NFL are massive hypocrites on the issue, but I think

And that’s why they get the negotiated split of the vast majority of other revenue streams.

I love riding on bullet trains and have used them in several foreign countries. They are comfortable, convenient, and fast. I also like Bentleys, for some of the same reasons. When it came time to make a purchasing decision, I got a Toyota instead. A transportation option that is hugely expensive and time-consuming to

“because our courts say corporations are people, campaign contribution limits are unconstitutional, and money is speech.” 

Either side would have authorized the raid, this was long planned. And any raid has the same semi-random chance of getting caught on infiltration and going to hell. It’s not uncommon. You don’t blame the people who sign off on it, you essentially suck it down as the costs of warfare.

BREAKING: Democrats are more pessimistic about Republican led administration than Republicans.

I’ll never understand how you get all these liberal kids, who rail against the abuses of the government, and then promptly want to turn around and give the government much more control and responsibility over their lives? Like, we just fucking let Donald Trump be president, and you want him to be in charge of your

So he was a hipster?

The headline (and the author) seriously misstated what the scientific study says. The study didn’t conclude that “CEOs are bullshit,” it concluded that having certain physical features that are routinely associated with competence is helpful when interviewing for CEO positions, particularly if you come from outside of
