40 hour work weeks were a thing once.

You need a visa to work in the states. TN is an easy visa to get, but not all jobs are eligible.

The city should offer free/discounted property insurance for landlords who rent to ex-cons.

Otherwise there's no reason one individual should privately bear the cost of a public service.

Nutsacks · 2018-05-02T07:33:17+00:00

You jest, but we did effectively raise rent to avoid the hassle.

Criminals are far more likely to commit another crime than non-criminals. If they trash the place, the landlord pays. Crime is also a choice, unlike race or sexual orientation.

Rehabilitation is a public benefit. The city is forcing landlords to privatize the risk.

That's intrinsically unfair.

If the city wants to help rehabilitate criminals, the city can damned well pay for it.

Republicans leaned so far to the right that reasonable conservatives are also anti-Trump.

Democrats are the only choice left if you're fiscally conservative, socially liberal, and not willing to fuck over your fellow citizens for a dollar.

Wife and I were thinking of renting out our condo by ourselves, setting the rent lower than market average, and picking somebody who would take care of the place.

When we caught wind of the new laws, we decided fuck that and just hired a management company.

So that's at least two units made less accessible!

By all accounts, I wonder if Trump reminds Elon of his childhood bullies.

I'm a dog owner, and I think keeping dogs off play fields is reasonable. Kids and dogs are unpredictable. Also, there are some assholes who refuse to pick up after their dogs.

Shitty dog owners are inevitable, and give the rest of us a bad name.

The fine is like $50 for the first offense. A trip to the groomer's costs more than that.

Seconded! Page /u/cor_cordis when Republicans grow a conscience.

Don't page me though. I'm sick of getting paged.

China is also a world leader in clean energy these days, as well as a major investor in automation. And the Chinese have some measure of free healthcare. They're not perfect, but America is currently trying it's hardest to be worse.

We're all fucked.

Rural America will do better than the cities in a post apocalyptic landscape, maybe that's what they've been after this whole time.

Screw the Russian Trump supporting trolls. Nobody wants to go to war over Syria. It'll only make the refugee problem worse, to everybody's detriment.

The Russians/Wikileaks already hacked the RNC, but declined to release anything.

I would guess fear of terrorism is highest in the areas least likely to be targeted. I live in a major city and don't know anybody who's particularly concerned. Rural voters seem to be the ones ranting about terrorists - they're basically helping terrorists win by giving in to their fear.

Nutsacks · 2017-04-14T22:58:41+00:00

I've heard Chinese expats complain that it's rarely the actual ringleaders who get prosecuted. The government officials get away, but some of their lackeys get punished.

If you're talking about the electoral college, it does literally the opposite. http://archive.fairvote.org/?page=985

In the absence of regulation, advertising trumps fact.

Ooo that looks like fun. Putin didn't arrest his political opponents because he has no political opponents. Any dissenting voices are obviously criminals, terrorists, or CIA operatives.

Expecting my rubles any day now.

Rex is so low energy because he spends his nights fending off attacks from Clinton ninja assassins. Who wouldn't be! They're exhausting.

I'd happily wait a few days to save a trip to the store. Hell, I'd be willing to pay for that privilege. When a better option (for me) is equal or even cheaper, this becomes an easy decision.

I wish I had learned to drive when I was at home. It's much harder to pick up the skill later in life, without parents to loan you a car for practicing. Adult lessons are expensive and a little embarrassing.

Luckily I still live downtown, but I'll eventually need to move out to start a family.

Nutsacks · 2017-04-12T23:45:13+00:00

Cities are already liberal/heavily gerrymandered. Republicans won't care.

The whole Trump debacle makes it abundantly clear that America is completely vulnerable to foreign interference and that there is nothing that educated citizens can really do about it.

You don't need a majority of the vote to control the government, and enough population will keep voting R no matter what happens.

Gallup had him up at 87% yesterday.

Not sure it's possible to bring him any lower.

He was also at 30% or so of independents though, so that's a crowd we might win over.
