Who’s doing anything for brownie points? I just object to this racist derision of any white who happens to expresses a point of view that is favorable to blacks. You clearly want to put all whites into the racist category. You resist any attempt by any white to get out of the little box you want to keep them in if…

Trump’s election finally got me into serious activism (first time post-college). I started showing up, keeping a low profile, and listening more than I talked. I wanted to defer to the people in charge because, y’know, clearly they had more experience than me.

I mean, literally, I don’t know what I am supposed to do anymore. I personally don’t consider myself racist, I don’t judge people for the way they look, I volunteer locally (granted, most people that need help around me are Native Americans but that’s a locale thing), I vote for people and policies that try to bridge…

Wow man, really helping your cause. I guess I will continue to be a “worthless white person”. With shit like this racism will exist forever and I no longer care.

So like, how do you be a “good white person”? Is it possible? This list is not productive, nor a good conversation starter.

A big problem with pushrod engines is head design. You are very limited with how you can place your valves in a pushrod engine, and it’s very tough to get good valve positions and angles for efficient air flow, and get more than 2 valves in a cylinder.

Well, it is a good thing I wasn’t just making up numbers!

4-5 hours a day?

You know nothing about solar.

As a progressive myself, I find the identity politics and the language policing of the regressive left unbearably fastidious. To quote the article: “He also frames those ‘ordinary Americans’ and their issues as ‘equally ... or more important’ than that of the marginalized communities he lists before.” I’m sorry to…

I’ve seen bushwacker fender flares 15 years old and still look fine. Just because GMs black plastic doesn’t age well, doesn’t mean its all bad.

That’s like putting on your resume “FBI Informant”. This is about as far as you get.

Whistle blowers don’t often go much farther in their fields. Probably best that they take that bit off their resumes.

I have a hard time with some of the comments on number 2:

For example, a woman is wearing a short dress and a low cut shirt. As a manager, should I tell her its inappropriate to HELP her change so that she can be successful? Or should I respect her and not say a word, and instead leave her in a position where she will…

You seem to be equating skilled labor unions with laborer’s unions. The former often provide such benefits such as formal training, certifications, and in many cases will even cover the cost of an employee’s degree (associate’s, generally). These are the sort of unions which are often stipulated as required for…

RTW is a great benefit. It makes it so the unions have to WORK to earn their pay. much like any SERVICE a person should have the right to choose if they want to buy it. in a place you are required to join a union you are also required to PAY that union much like protection money from gangsters. if the consumer…

I live in Nashville and we have two big auto plants in the area. One being Nissan (non-union) and one being GM (union). Guess which one is constantly going through lay offs?

Lol you’re so wrong. In econ 101 classroom vacuum sure that applies. Hers what actually happens. Any large employer will have to realign their pay scales to remain a competitive player in attracting talent. In 5 yrs my company has increased it’s starting pay 40%, exactly because Walmart, Target and fast food companies…

I would support Right To Work in Illinois (I live here). I believe Unions had their time and place in the past when it was difficult for an employee to report bad working conditions or terrible pay. However in this day and age of social media and 24/7 news, workers can easily be heard if they need to be, no Union…

Could I last a day on the line? Yeah it’s easy. Would I want too? No, I’d rather blow my brains out rather than perform the same task 100 times a day. Doesn’t mean they deserve high pay for doing something so boring and repetitive
