They all owe the American people an explanation for why it isn’t. One they’re still laughably unprepared to give 5 whole fucking years later.

How about just not wanting this person on the street because he’s capable of murdering someone in cold blood? There is a pretty discernible line between combat and taking a prisoner and stabbing him to death. Someone capable of that is just a broken person who is fairly likely to revert to violence again in the…

What in her response was “disastrously unprepared?” She admitted she shouldn’t have done it. That it was tone deaf. What else do you want to hear from her?

So Trump wants both the costs of clothes and electronics (China) and produce (Mexico) to go up for his walmart shopping base? Seems like a sound strategy.

If you would have told me there was a game this series where Kyle Lowry only had 7 points (3 of which came in what was basically garbage time) I would have told you the Warriors won that game by 20. If the Raptors can keep up their defensive intensity and if Kawhi Leonard doesn’t literally die of exhaustion from the…

Bravo good sir

Kellyanne being butt hurt for being rightly treated like a nobody is one of the more uplifting things I’ve read in awhile. Isn’t her “role” about working on opioids or some shit anyway? Why the hell is she even near a meeting supposedly about infrastructure?

People still can’t come to grips with the fact that Trump could be flailing around aimless from day to day without any grander designs. It’s hard to process someone actually becoming president without being even mildly intelligent. We’re living it and it still just defies comprehension. So we project what an…

I live in BFE and I charge $300/hour without blinking and no one questions it.

The Blues this post-season are night/day compared to their woes from the last few post season runs, i.e.

“Dooce on the loose”

Florida’s sunshine laws say otherwise. As Republicans love to say “If you don’t like the law, change it.” And I say this as someone who begrudgingly agrees with the judge that the way the warrants were handled was poor at best.

I found last nights episode to be riveting for the first time in a few seasons. The thing I question a bit is waiting until the penultimate episode for Danny to heel turn. That seems awfully late for such a huge plot development.

Do you understand how credit lending works? That already happens at every bank, for every credit card, etc. They know what % of their customers are going to default on their obligations and the interest paid by others offsets the losses. Thats why even if you’ve never missed a single payment on a debt in your entire…

I refuse to put too much thought into these movies because it defeats the point but what bugged me was one of the main plot points is Tony Stark is able to invent time travel in one night? 

No, the default rate is 30% not the interest rate. Default as in the number of people who stop making payments and they either have to sue them or write off the debt. The interest rates on these are waaaay higher than 30%.

I never said they aren’t money. I said it isn’t “your” money. You are borrowing someone else’s money to make a purchase and then paying that amount back. It sounds like you don’t even really understand what credit is.

They’re both ruthless, just in different ways. Most of these high interest lenders will shamelessly lie, steal and cheat to try and get a payment from someone. They’ll say you can’t file bankruptcy on their type of loan, that they can garnish social security, etc. Things that 5 seconds of googling will tell you isn’t…

Credit cards aren’t your money. It’s the banks money until you pay the bill off to them. You don’t think places that lend money have a right to charge interest? Theres plenty of places to correct lending practices and predatory interest rates but just saying creditors shouldn’t be able to charge any sort of interest…

I’m a bankruptcy attorney so I deal with these types of creditors every single day. You’re right that the practices are predatory. However, at the risk of sounding like I’m defending them, you have no idea how hard it is for people with low incomes or bad credit scores to obtain even small loans from traditional…
