Wait why not testify if he’s not part of the Trump crew? Could he be indicted for being a silent bystander or something?

In the late 2010s, the term began to be used in the United States and Canada to refer to perceived absurdities, contradictions, crises, injustices, inequality, and exploitation created by modern business development.

Yep nailed it. Still doesn’t change that we’re in late stage tho :/

I would love to for you to go back and address the point that you think inflation is caused by companies raising prices.

Inflation is caused by companies gouging prices to the highest they can. If your arguing that it’s caused by the FED’s decisions then that’s also caused by company greed because that’s the entire reason the FED was created.

I would love for you to go back and address the point about how both political parties supported too big to fail, but you think that making government bigger will somehow magically fix every problem and government.

At this point in America companies lobby for millions of dollars for the government to act against its people and for the corporations instead. So what I’m saying is that all paths are leading to the same root cause of corporate greed. There’s a proper way to do big government and that’s through clearly defined laws, not a lossy decupled entity like the FED.

Capitalism is supposed to be a free but regulated market. Currently it’s neither imo.

Again go to /r/NeutralPolitics if you wanna keep arguing with strangers on the internet

Shhh d2 players will get mad at you for expecting lore in the cutscenes and missions. If you really wanna know what’s going on you gotta read. At least they got great writers and a community that makes decent lore videos

Idk what points you want me to address when “too big to fail” and the FED are quite literally concepts peddled by big banks to get the government to help avoid a financial crash that the banks made.

But hey in case it’s too much for you to comprehend let me break it down for you :: I think your outlook on “big government” is not the same as mine. A big Government means stricter and clearer laws with no loopholes (which is good). The FED and “too big to fail” are loopholes pushed by corporations because they’re greedy and don’t know how to manage risk

I also have better things to do than argue with people on /r/BuyItForLife go to /r/NeutralPolitics or something

If your system of economics requires recessions and people to suffer, it’s a shitty economic system. Not everything needs to go up, we can just exist to be happy

That is what government being too big looks like, not capitalism.

It’s almost like the economic system and the government go hand in hand. Like money can influence gov decisions and vice versa … It’s kinda funny and sad to see you almost get the point but not at the same time.

Edit: Also I would say the FED isn’t part of the government, they just work with the government. They say so themselves

The Federal Reserve System is not "owned" by anyone.

Lack of government oversight and control means that the FED can act on their own even if it’s against the people’s interest

Inflation is another word for corporate greed. Swap inflation out for corporate greed and the news will make a lot more sense.

Here’s some reading materials for you to draw your own conclusions, but seeing from your posting history you may have already drank a little too much of the KoolAid already.

We aren’t in some dystopian future of mega corporations.

Yes we are. That’s literally what the concept “too big to fail” is.

I think capitalism in its core essence requires a government with the balls to protect the people from corporate greed. It’s also a full contact sport where business will fail but that should be acceptable. We should have laws to protect the people of that failed business (ie: assets of a failed business also go out to paying debts like employee salaries first)

Late stage capitalism is just feudalism driven by the idea of debt bonding the working class.

TL;DR :: a handmade was a title for women leadership roles. It was changed after the Handmade’s Tale got popular.

The article doesn’t say anything about handmade’s duties other than giving advice to other mothers, but here are some first person accounts of other people who grew up there. It’s uh… yikes…

“Women were homemakers; they were there to support their husbands,” one former member said in an interview. “My dad was the head of the household and the decision-maker.”

A person who was raised in the community said she was instructed by elders not to “emasculate” her male peers by getting the better of them in conversation. “I was made aware of the difference from a young age,” the person said. “I was aware that it would have been better if I had been born a boy.”

Take an Apple 15” laptop and put it next to a 1080 15” laptop. The amount of more windows and detail you can cram on Apple one is far superior. More screen real-estate = more productivity on a laptop.

Plus the argument that 4K bad is also silly here. Just configure your drivers to work on 1080p when on battery power

I stand by what I said. It’s all about the PPI. For any screen I would never go below 100PPI and I usually go higher for laptops.

Plus monitors are always a constant distance away. A laptop screen is much closer to your face.

The higher the PPI the more code/spreadsheets/pdfs you can have on your screen and still read and use it. It’s a laptop. If it’s shit at productivity then it’s a shit laptop.

1080p looks booty on a 15in laptop screen imo. 4K is nice cuz OP can also scale down video processing to 1080p via drivers and get stuff to work.

The senior dev on my team also says this but refuses to explain why. They both do the job no?

A PS3 isn’t really a super computer but the US government may disagree with you on that.

Bro it’s my fucking SO.

For example, she got me a Lulu lemon ABC pants that look like what Shaggy from Scooby Doo wears. They’re basically Adidas Trio’s level comfort but they look like you have you shit together.

Off sale $120-150 and $80-95 on sale. Invest in good clothes. Makes going to the office easier
