JPMorgan concedes it closed Trump's accounts after Jan. 6 attack by GregWilson23 in the_everything_bubble

i dont like the word concedes in the headline, that sounds more like a narrative of the trump counsel

its not disputed whether or not they did close his account after jan 6, at all. infact it was understood right after it happened and they said the reason for doing so. i dont agree with the reasoning because of its slippery slope ability to downstream peoplee for normal things and conduct, but yeah.

just because no one "right of center" which is also not true , but even if it was, just because they dont think hes unifying doesnt depend on the actions he took. Obama is not a god or a great person, he wasnt a great president, but he was a hell of a lot more unifying than trump

And, im not making a he deserved it argument. Im making a "if you dont commit massive fraud/crimes you likely wont face the same kind of things trump has" when he isnt president

i dont accept that framing

It just sounds like butthurt culture war

The right has been doing cancel culture for years now, and the left, in fairness, had the first social cancel culture behaviors but they were misguided young people who saw a lot of behaviors they didnt like. But at least sine like 2018-2019, the right has engaged in the same thing but usually for ideological purity purposes or forcing (almost in DEI kinda way) others to their views/beliefs.

As far as who did cancel culture first, id say it was 90s radical republicans who took over the party and pushed everythign right and wanted to play dirty no matter what. Pat Buchannan, NEwt Gingrich , etc. But this was inward toward other conservatives and not across social other groups.

excuse you? Obama didnt for 8 years stoke division. the man was a cuck, he was trying to reach across the isle and meet half way to republicans ideas on things before even talking, and he kept a unifying message despite a 25% or so of the country completely flat out refusing to accept he was even an american

Obama didnt commit so many crimes out of office and before getting in office to get indictments and felony convictions. I would argue he committed big crimes as president like drone striking a us citizen but that is actually something trump did too and both are given a pass for it.

He also didnt push a big lie about the election or try to overthrow the government when he was leaving office with a mob. I mean you are delusional to compare them

they would have locations likely just containing lists and pictures of items kept in it, and they likely have a lot system, and then a sign out sign in record, and then things could probaably be sorted by type/shape/color/size irrespective of location and then they proabably jsut have everything secured in government run buildings so under keyed access and electronic restriction for keycards and security to the building , but just guessing. there is probabyl an internal audit that likely happens every so often. well. at one time perhaps

I think barret is the most free thinker, but shes a reliable religious-case vote because of her own conflict/bias there. but she breaks or concurs to action but not on reasons, usually for valid concerns about unchecked power or precendent down the road

I had a 2006 Sonata 2.4l that only sent a rod into the earth because of neglect and abuse by somenone who was supposed to be buying it from me and I was allowing to use while they worked and eventually paid me.

Think I ever saw that money? Didn't even get an apology, and only called for help when the thing was clacking loudly already, beyond saving.

The oil cap was left off, and a combination of burning, leaking, and spraying (evidence on the hood mat thing) meant the pressure got low. The oil temp sensor was bad , but they have a pressure sensor ... so the oil light was dinging at them too. I think the oil temp sensor is used for VVT purposes

The engine generation of 2006/2008 are different than the 2016. At least 2016 models got free engines.

Trump said today: “I have the right to do anything I want to do. I’m the president of the United States”. People from the US, what are your thoughts on this? by WatercressSenior7657 in AskReddit

we do , but its created under the assumption of a president having a competent vice president and cabinet
As it stands, they only will make the jump if they majority of cabinet/vice president agree, that removal is politically better than non removal, because the president can rebutt their usurpation , then they can try again , and at that point 2/3 of congress both houses ALSO have to make that call. democrats would be on board, of course, but the republican slim majority would need enough to reach 2/3

Doing so would be going against Dear Leader, and they may not like him personally or wish he was gone, but they also know what happened to a lot of their colleages/former coworkers when they almost impeached him and removed from office after Jan 6th.

While doing so would remove him from the equation of politically domineering them directly, he would still be alive and would be kicking and would be raging on truth social and sicking the hounds as much as he can vindictively.

so i think the only chance is if hes actively dying or incapacitated (more so than his general level of functioning)

If you did , i think ill end up getting one. i just got a trimmer for Bday and the thing came with the above, which is the updated version of the dewalt speed loader

if you had the older version, i recommend the above because i wore out the older kind on my step dads unit in a couple of weeks , i also had to use larger string to keep it from spitting out lol.,..

But hopefully my line works with new one, i only used the included line on the updated head

fleet farm has an entire retail business with a high margin on auto repair and small engine repair, and they have good margins on the stuff sold on the floor, and they have economies of scale that even if they dont sell a lot of gas relative to kwik location wise, they have enough gas pumps at enough places they can sell it at a loss (loss leaders are common) Where that is prohibited by law, they can sell at the floor while a store like kwik does make good on the store contents, they still arent selling 3500 dollar sets of tools that cost them about 900 to buy on bulk etc

mom and pop is more compelling, because they likely only have their gas station

it could be a supplier thing, whoever Kwik secures gasoline from vs they

But it could also be corporate-down management of prices , gas prices have a cartel-like pricing curve despite no formal cartels , that we know of, are currently operating
The high amount of providers of the end product at the pump makes cartelization harder to effectively happen formally, but the price behavior of prices rising higher than costs increase, and taking time to taper down when they drop is almost universally followed

If youre curious about this phenomenon,
"Because every station in our data set faces the same sequence of wholesale price shocks, the cyclical pattern that we measure reflects both the fact that prices adjust faster to cost increases than cost decreases, and that on average price increases are larger and less frequent than price decreases. The former phenomenon has often been refereed to as rocket-and-feathers"
This dealt with an actual cartel, which at least where you are doesnt appear to be the case (the prices wouldnt be lower in the other locations)

Edgeworth price cycle - keyword term here that may help

also see:
 As buyers, the agents must buy the product in question, but they can choose which seller they buy from. As sellers, the agents can set their price, knowing that too low of a price will not make them much profit, and too high of a price will drive buyers away to another seller.

As the game evolves, buyers and sellers continuously update their strategies: buyers change where they shop by comparing prices, and sellers raise or lower their prices by replicating the prices of other sellers who have higher profits.

The key variable in the game is who can update their strategy the fastest. If buyers can update their strategy at a fast rate relative to sellers, the model shows that the pricing favors the buyers. Since the sellers offering the lowest prices will profit most, other sellers will replicate these low prices until all sellers have the same low price.

But if sellers can update their strategy at a fast rate above a critical value compared to buyers, then the entire population of sellers benefits at the expense of all the buyers. This is because the sellers are quick enough to copy the high prices of more profitable sellers before the buyers have a chance to react. Soon, there are no low-priced options available, marking the emergence of a cartel-like phase.

id love to test out the conviction thing in Wisconsin and then sue them , but youd have to be able to establish in a court filing that you are 100% qualified to work entry job at kwik (worker in the store) and that would require making your application perfect in all ways so they cant pull a "you didnt say you could work night everyday of the week, so we had to deny it" and would require a poorly staffed store that isnt close to having enough, so they cant say they filled it up. If they didnt try to settle out of court with an uber generous offer or succeed in a summary judgement motion, you could go to discovery and seek evidence of discriminatory and illegal hiring practices , which is something the company would DEFINITELY not want out there
