It’s like living your entire life knowing only Terriers and then suddenly discovering Dachshunds. What the fu…
I wonder if it’s a coincidence that it flattened out right about the time a certain president introduced “Trickle Down Theory” that we’ve followed ever since?
One of the things that I took from the Motorcycle Safety Course that I really liked is that when someone is tailgating you, to try to increase the distance between you and the car in front of you so that you will be able to slow down twice as slowly and effectively give that room back to the car behind you to prevent…
Monetary policy drives inequality. Those with access to nearly free or free money become dramatically wealthier. Those directly serving where this money goes do well too. This doesn’t mean that wages are not flat. They are flat for the 95% or more of the people who are not able to feed directly from the central bank…
If wages are flat, why is *everything* more expensive than it was 30 years ago? Answer: the people who decide how wages are allocated decided that their share needed to be bigger than ours.

You have two fists!
Remember when someone described Roger Ailes balls as looking like old hamburger meat (During the sexual misconduct allegations)? That’s how I imagine most of these guys to be. Nasty, small-dicked and generally repulsive when their clothes come off as though Hieronymus Bosch was using their nether-regions as…
I didn’t hear a word he said, I was looking at the police record where Bill O’Reilly choked his ex-wife in front of his teenage children. Why is a wife beater who lost legal access to his children allowed to BE on TV anyway
I think he was waiting for her to start yelling “Motherfucker, I want more iced tea!”
Not entirely sure this whole ‘Donald Trump’ thing is working out stateside either.
