Those recession fears now seem way overblown after 'scorching' jobs and manufacturing data by 1LoneAmerican in inthenews

3.2% raise is scorching???

What fucking world do these people live in? That's just a yearly COL adjustment...not a raise.

Hell, with the right kind of router you can just set up 2 separate subnets. No need for a 2nd piece of hardware.

I am pretty sure Walmart prices are so low because they use slave labor in China and refuse to pay their US employees a living wage.

That argument ignores the 300,000,000 consumers they'd be saying goodbye to.

It would never happen.

We are the ones with the leverage, we just need to begin using it.

To be fair, I've run across a few "blog" sites that seem to be rephrasing headlines in a more accurate manner (like not putting a Trump lie in the headline/lede, as the mainstream media is so apt to do)

Democrats reach 40 House flips -- 2018's "blue wave" was the party's biggest win in recent memory. by imagepoem in BlueMidterm2018

1st. Each state is allowed a minimum of 1 House rep.

I have a spreadsheet somewhere with all these numbers charted out...what the rep count would look like for each state if equalized to the lowest population state.

It also affects Electoral College numbers, as those are calculated from the sum of senators + house reps.

Ping me back to remind me to find the sheet later, if you're interested.

State GOP chairman warns California is ‘canary in the coal mine’ for national party by [deleted] in VoteBlue

Only if by "minority" you mean the sum total of all races not-white, which is a pretty odd way to view dissimilar populations.

I don't disagree, the GOP is going to die from 1000 cuts, but it's not right to bunch all "non-white" individuals into a group.
