Occasionally groping women or acting lewd toward them isn’t really sex addict behavior. It’s just classic scumbag behavior. Allowing people like him to self-label sort of waters down the actual meaning of the term.

It’s both. Weinstein’s an example of the latter.

Jeff Sessions is a hateful evil serpent representing the very worst factions our society. Nothing he says can or should be trusted, or respected. In most cases, the opposite of what he says or espouses is what we should be considering.

I’m curious as to whether their parents are secretly proud? or utterly horrified and disappointed. It’s gotta be one or the other.

Yeah, I graduated magna as well as laude.

That was awesome.

I remember when this wealthy, powerful doctor held me upside down while I was naked, and spanked me, and then said “congratulations, it’s a boy”. Violate me and label me? That monster.

I’m going to go way, way out on a limb here and speculate that a) there were ‘hints’ early on that these men, like Weinstein and Weiner, weren’t totally wholesome (or attractive) and that b) they and their ‘gorgeous women’ (who certainly would never marry for power or wealth) have an agreement when it comes to the…

She had to flee the gold mine before the entire thing caved in on her.

Hollywood, Washington D.C. and Wall Street.

I know how pensions are factored into net worth; it’s a pretty simple formula. You need to get out of theoretical realm, comrade, and consider the difference between median and mean. The mean net worth of those millions of people is $3.5M. At a rough visual estimate of the breakdown I’d say about 50-60% of the net…

I’m all for addressing - aggressively - the economic inequality issue here. However, Hamilton wildly misconstrues the data he links to and then makes an absolutely outrageous proposition that would effectively destroy the lives of a few million people while merely inconveniencing a few thousand multi-millionaires and…

Look at the actual charts - you’d likely be taking that $35k in the form of installment checks derived from a 50% tax leveraged on retirees’ pension payouts and 401k withdrawals. That’s what they get for trying to retire, eh comrade!?

You need to go look at the actual numbers and charts he linked. About a quarter of the ‘net worth’ includes pensions. Your ‘tax on liquidity’ would be charging retirees with little actual money in the bank a 50% tax on their retirement checks. That was the problem with communism - millions of people suffer and die…

You need to go on the site, and look at how it’s broken down. The average net worth is 3.5M, but it doesn’t tell us the median wealth, which will give us a much more realistic picture without being skewed by the multi-billionaires.

Dividing the total wealth of this segment by their raw population in order to estimate they all have ‘a few million in liquid net worth’ is a little disingenuous. The site doesn’t make it clear what actually defines a HNWI individual. If we’re including multi-billionaires in here, that’s going to skew the average, so…

Right! A multi-year civil war that tears apart families, destroys infrastructure and engenders a generation or two of terrorist protest groups would be preferable - economically and ethically - to having a peaceful split that ‘costs’ you 20% of your GDP.

Perhaps there would be less ambiguity surrounding the validity of the vote had democracy been allowed to run its course, and the vote been allowed to take place unimpeded, without uninvited riot troops beating voters at the ballot stations.

Your super-racist Uncle who discovered Facebook and gets really pissed and butthurt when you have to Snopes his stupid fake posts is really, really going to love sharing this image with his friends.

Communism is great for intellectualism! Unless it’s of the unapproved variety. Then your ass gets disappeared. Also who needs more than 1 flavor of porridge, eh comrade?
