To be fair, those 20,000 employed professionals pay taxes.

This, much like the bonuses and wage increases American employees are getting because of the tax cut bill, does not fit Splinter’s socialist agenda. So they get extra defensive with stuff like this because they know it makes their cause look stupid.

I ordered 9 things on amazon this weekend and i hope my city wins the amazon 2nd HQ. The biggest employer here pays no local property tax and was incentivized to build here. Then it brought 20k professional jobs to the area. This town has gone through a massive boom because of them and its a great city.

Products aren’t “Black” even if mostly black people use them. Most likely Walmart analyzed data to determine as narrowly as possible what products are stolen and require extra security, whether locking them in cases/containers, electromagnetic lanyards or tags, or escorting customers to the checkout.

Yep, Hillary is the real victim here, totally.

Better to have studied a…

I also have a dumb question — what happened to “Hispanic?” That seemed more gender-neutral than Latino or Latina or even Latinx (which I’m not sure how to pronounce), but it seems to have fallen out of fashion?

Can we all notice how Gina Rodriguez didn’t use the word Latinx?

Buffalo, NY was pretty awesome for the few days I randomly spent there for shits and giggles.

I think you mean Latino.

“Of the 20 acting nominations, only four went to people of color, all of whom were black.”

Strange how she doesn’t use Latinx. Wonder why.

Come to Detroit. Despite all this “comeback” crap you hear, there is literally block after block of unoccupied houses here.

So how long until we break down the SAG by ethnicity and make the awards proportional to that? Or just have separate awards in each category for every race, gender, religion, etc.

what laws would be broken here? what new laws would you suggest?

Having only $100k in retirement savings at 37 isn’t anything to get excited about.
