I believe they are scared of the number coming out. I do not believe the public reaction will be what you anticipate. My guess is most Americans will hear an exec clears $20MM and conclude “Well for that kind of money, he’s just got to be vital to the success of the company.”

There’s another aspect as well- a lot of Americans seem to have fully invested in the “self made man” myth. Even if they acknowledge that the CEO makes 300 times what the average worker does, they seem to believe firmly that the CEO started at the same spot and just worked hard/ was really smart in order to get there,…

I’m convinced Steph Curry rolled his ankle on purpose so he didn’t have to see this all game.

I’m amazed at Mark Davis and his financial discipline. For decades, the man has apparently refused to shell out $20 for a mirror.

The Davis fellow is living proof that you should never—never ever—sleep with your barbers wife.

I’m not even a Vikings fan, Drew, but if Brees ends up in Minnesota, I will also shit your pants.

A lot of people dont sign up because they are like “Hey I have an overwhelming desire to kill people.” They do it because the US provides benefits, education, and resources they wouldnt otherwise have. This is often coupled with family ties to the military, meaning they grew up in a culture where its all they knew. I…

IDK, the jury is out as to whether Brees is going to be the same after that March 2006 shoulder surgery.

That’s the point - a well educated and informed populace is dangerous to the government these shitbags want.

Just FYI- that’s not clear AT ALL. Reads as quite the opposite, in fact

Huge props to Larry for stepping up here and taking a public stance on this. Us libtards can yell and scream and shake our fists on issues like this all we want, but it will always fall on deaf ears to hardcore 2nd amendment supporters. It’s going to take a major effort from high-profile guys like Chipper, who likely…

Money laundering, wire fraud, tax evasion, things like that. The entire system is a conspiracy to commit tax evasion, but the ringleader of the racket is the NCAA which prevents players from claiming their income legally.

Now this is the proper way of using the rollover of excess cap space. Instead of being stuck in cap hell years down the road via signing bonus, burn through the excess early and absorb modest increases later. Therefore, as the cap raises $10 million/year, Jimmy G’s cap charge will actually decrease as a percentage of…

I understand where you’re coming from, but that’s not the point. My wife is a high school teacher, and when I asked her what she would do if ever in a situation such as this, she looked at me without skipping a beat and said “do whatever it took to protect my kids.” I asked if that meant she would give her life to…

Because the NRA doesn’t represent gun owners as much as they represent gun manufacturers.

Is it any coincidence the GOP welcomes failed tradesmen who believe they’d have done better in their trade if there weren’t so many rules?

Hey Todd Akin said he heard from doctors!!

There are a lot of good people on the right and a lot of bad people on the left.. Political alignment doesn’t inherently make an individual “good” or “bad” and we should really stop trying to make it that way.

Short answer: They suck being doctors, somehow managed to fake their way through being a decent one to become rich enough to take on politics and be an asshole

Harris is my rep due to gerrymandering. He’s full of shit. His district needs Medicaid dollars. You can’t pull the whole “I represent the small towns, the forgotten people” and ignore Medicaid is important for people struggling in rural areas.
