In other news, Splinter bloggers are pissed they have no access. 

The long form tl;dr one. 

Warren’s a borderline idiot. Shows that all you need to do to succeed is be a woman, get solid LSATs scores, and then start listing yourself as Native American. 

Better question is, why bother? They bitch constantly about the state of their reservations..that they built..and then tons became alcoholics and drug addicts and the rest left to build casinos. Why not just fucking assimilate? Life would be so much simpler. 

You as well, it was nice to have a civil conversation with a person that knew what they were talking about; rare find on splinter. And thank you for giving me a bit more knowledge about economics, I actually learned a bit. 

What the fuck are you even talking about? Are you just recounting personal experience? Seems like it, given the detail

...okay, then I’ll shove my foot in my mouth now. This is why I stray away from this stuff, I don’t have the patience or acclimation and I have the paralegals do it. Though what you’d hear is “mmrph mrph mrrrrrrrrph”

I think I didn’t make my question clear, I’m more curious how they differentiate a guy with delayed economic productivity vs. virtually instant, like putting a car together and shipping it to a lot. I think this is where I’d break out the quote my democratic operative ex girlfriend used to use in reference to…

Apparently I. Shitholesville they didn’t teach you that WW1’s aftermath (you know, that part where you annihilated a country’s economy for virtually no reason except honoring a treaty) was a direct cause of the nationalist and fascist uprising in Germany that caused WW2. But hey, I assume your textbooks were published…

It’s almost like DA’s don’t want their pending cases outed so the suspects can burn all the evidence! Who’d have thought?! I get it Rafi, you’re the only one in the family that didn’t become a doctor or lawyer, and you’re desperately reaching for parental approval...but this is not it. Also apparently it’s only cool…

Still projecting. 

That study cited ECONOMIC productivity. That absolutely does not apply across the board to worker productivity. How much do they gauge the scientist who develops a new compound for a drug company which costs 200 million over 6 years to investigate, test, then market and reaps 1 billion in revenue over the years of the…

You’re projecting. 

Good one. Maybe if the balkans had manned up and acquiesced to Austria’s demands after Ferdinand was assassinated we could’ve avoided both wars. Unfortunately you didn’t, so your hubris was rewarded with fighting tanks with cavalry. Tough shit, actions have consequences..don’t they teach you that in middle of nowhere…

Perhaps, but you have to also remember that many of those labor jobs got massively inflated paychecks due to unions strong arming the employers. Much of them were low skill jobs that maybe required a week or less of training to teach, and then just mindlessly pulling a lever. Automation is never going to take the…

This guy is about as dumb as a brick, I’m debating whether to just start dismissing him. 

Yeah, except universal healthcare is unsustainable and has been crushing the UK for years. We already have safeguards for the impoverished, they get treatment, people aren’t left to die on the streets. You’re bitching on behalf of over leveraged people not being able to pay or budget for a catastrophe. This is the…

Google is your friend, sycophant. 

I’m going to ignore the fact that you just shitposted a ton in this thread for now and say tax cuts don’t cost the government anything, it just reduces revenue. Military spending serves an actual, quantifiable purpose. The reason other countries can sleep easy with a tiny military and budget is solely because the USA…

Shut the fuck up, tomato.
