“Actually black people don’t have the privilege and power to be racist.”

According to your esteemed colleague, nothing happens next:

Okay. But as of today, there’s no law against being greedy. There’s punitive taxation and other ways government can “spread the wealth around”, but there’s no law on the books. Yet.

The only reason the workers have the opportunity to earn money is because of another person or persons who started the company. If said workers are not happy with how much of the pie they are bringing home they can either find another job that pays more, or they can start their own company. Virtually 100% will take…

Says who? Do I earn too much money, and am I greedy because I want to earn more? Maybe you earn more than me; you’re greedy if you want a raise. Do you see the problem with leaving the definition of “too much” up for judgement by the government?

You’re absolutely correct; GM should NOT have gotten a bailout. But before anybody starts with that asinine statement of “What? You’d let GM shut its doors??!!!”...no, no, no. GM should have declared bankruptcy then used those protections to restructure, renegotiate its debts, etc. Instead, it got given a…

Of course it’s going to be difficult to fire back up supply chains; that’s our fault for letting them wither on the vine during the offshoring craze. But, once they’re re-established; it works. If you distill it down, you’re complaining about it being hard to start up a company - no sh!t??!!

“...Afghanistan is actually in a much worse state than you remember.”

Because The Root is a blog that only cares about promoting racism.

Your car (HA! Like you have one...) could kill people, so it should be forcibly confiscated from you. Plus, car ownership is not enshrined in the Constitution.

Pro-gun or anti-gun; how many of you, right now, are going to take five freaking minutes and educate your children about what to do if they come across a gun?

Okay, Stef, we’ll let you know when we run out of gas. It’ll be over 200 years from now, so you’ll be pretty damn old by then. Unless you (like all the other Chicken Littles) believed the “peak oil” myth that was first brought forth in the 1970s. Whoops, it was revised to the 1980s...Crap! Okay, the 1990s... …

As a diehard gearhead, I sincerely hope all automakers pull completely out of California, leaving you to get around via public transit until they come to their collective damn senses.

Gasp! Oh no, JORGE (no bias there): people here illegally, who have committed crimes, are going to be arrested? We’re all racists!

Hey, how about showing us all that evidence that Russia “hacked” the election? You know, show how they altered votes, committed voter fraud, etc.

They may not be able to, but I’d wipe the floor with you when it comes to debate, especially about the worst president in the history of our country, which was the previous administration.

In response to the headline: No, they won’t. This sounds like a press release or tweet that Elon Musk would make, with the predicable outcome that he’s way off the mark.

Why did Assad commit this most-recent war crime? Because Obama never backed up his “red line” rhetoric he previously set. If Obama had decided to enforce his red line against using chemical weapons, action would have been taken already, as Assad used them after that “red line” speech Obama gave.

There is no need for him to be there; ISIS is a JV team that has been contained. Obama said so.

Higher risk = higher premiums. There’s no mystery here.
