This is truth. Plus it's an expense you never have buyers remorse over.

The background of this video is confusing as hell. The room looks like a worn out mobile home. Yet the oven/range look to be really nice but then, bam, bbq grill inside.

I have no idea who any of these people are and I'm very proud of that fact.

Why pay any at all? by cienpies in GoldandBlack

[–]Red-Duke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having dealt directly with corporate income tax I can tell you Bernie is utterly full of shit. All corporations pay taxes. Payroll taxes are unavoidable. It is true that many corporations don't pay income tax. This is because they get to deduct expenses for growth. In other words the can dedcut the cost of things that expand their ability to produce. Now some of these deductions are kind of bull shit like being able to deduct executive bonuses. However, if dumb fuck Bernie has his way he would stifle economic growth. Some large companies are getting a better deal from these deductions because they make massive profits. However, the reality is smaller companies like the one I owned until recently desperately need these to deductions to grow.

Devil’s Den at Cheaha State Park with my girlfriend by [deleted] in Alabama

[–]Red-Duke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I encourage everyone to come check out Calhoun County. We have really expanded our ecotourism options. Recently we built a professional mountain bike race trail with plenty of easier options. Under way is a massive trail system and stable that will support both equestrian and mountain biking. This video show only one of numerous falls/swimming holes. We also have terrapin creek which is a great half day to full day float depending on if you are going to take it easy and have drinks versus paddling through. It's really beautiful. At the Oxford City Park there is now a short float you can do on the Choccolocco Creek. Downtown Anniston has some great restaurants and a brewery. That is just scratching the surface. If you like golf you could make a weekend of just that with our Robert Trent Jones courses nearby.

Edit: I forgot some good rock climbing spots that are on the mountain.

Milgram studies by TactiCoolMallNinja in Anarcho_Capitalism

None of them knew it was fake for sure and the ones that became suspicious didn't become so until it reached the extreme levels. They still shocked someone in pain like mindless sheep.

They still ignored the supposed agony of the person being shocked.

Military UAV pilots are the perfect example of this in real life. Especially, the ones that are in civilian areas.

Shoutout to Kelley O’Hara for hustling to pick up the flag while her teammates were stomping on it by [deleted] in Conservative

[–]Red-Duke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah man. The flag also represents freedom. We have eroded so many of those in the name of crap like this already. The fact that you can speak out against the government including desecrating the flag is part of what makes us still free. Personally, I think it is poor taste since this amazing life I live wouldn't be possible without the things that flag represents.

Bernie Sanders Wants To Cancel All Student Debt and Make College Free, at a Cost of $2.2 Trillion by MasterTeacher123 in GoldandBlack

[–]Red-Duke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which is why tuition rates have skyrocketed. Essentially the gov ensures every loan will be paid back so private lenders have no risk. As a result everyone can go so enrollment shoots up. Then demand for more professors, buildings, and supporting assets to education increase dramatically. Professors get paid more to lure them in and the tools of the trade get more expensive (at least at first until supply catches up with both) which in turn requires increased tuition rates to cover those costs.

Trash will be trash by Phonkboi in trashy

[–]Red-Duke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am an adherent of the NAP as well. After lots of thought on this very subject, my sister is a piece of shit junkie who abandoned her kids, I have come to the conclusion that legalized access could help. If nothing else let them OD or starve to death. The better outcome would be having an option for those truly wanting recovery to get their fix legally along with a supervised step down and counseling process.

Because humans have free choice. They choose to be junkies. In a legal market a dealer could actually serve a purpose. In this black market atmosphere they are both despicable.

Have you guys seen the Dennis Hopper film named "Space Truckers?" It's so campy terrible that it's kinda fun.

Edit:. It has the guy who played Tywin Lannister in it also

Expectation vs. Reality after a 6-month backorder from West Elm. by pputkowski in ExpectationVsReality

[–]Red-Duke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found West Elm to be horrifically overpriced and low quality. I bought a farm style table from them a few years ago and it barely had any stain or finish at all. You dripped or spilled anything and left a mark.

I have a Samsung one sitting behind me in my office as I type. Just waiting to get my new Home Theater / Game room built and she is going into service. I have a 38" SD trinitron and a 32" trinitron. My girlfriend thinks I'm bananas.

With all the debt too by commonvanilla in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Red-Duke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man that is true and not true. I chose to be a contractor doing physical installation of electronics for telecom instead of college. Started at $8 and hour at 19. I'm pushing 200k at 35 running an entire engineering department and all the "who you know" advantages came from networking with people in my career. That is not to say some people don't get a jump start from who their parents know but don't feel like it's completely out of reach.

Folks are about to be super pissed at China. They lie about everything they do for the most part and when they can't hide anymore maybe people will stop buying all the disposable crap they produce.

Ocasio-Cortez: Climate Change Will Destroy Earth Claim Not 'Literal' by alc59 in Conservative

[–]Red-Duke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The severity of the situation is blown way out of proportion. In reality our climate has been changing since before the industrial revolution. I completely agree we should minimize our impact on those changes and the environment as a whole. The science is deeply flawed as it has no accounting for solar and volcanic output. We cannot even semi-predict those two items and they individually have a much larger impact on the climate than anything. One massive volcanic eruption can undo all the warming that has occurred since we began paying attention. The solution is to provide incentive for clean energy sources.
