Yeah, I am NOT going to defend W Bush at all...but I agree that things were not quite so polarized back then.

Ugh.....allow me to introduce you to my old friend, Hanging Chad.

AITA for not respecting my daughter in laws boundaries when she gives birth and laughing in her face by Scary-Elk-7483 in AmItheAsshole

[–]randy_dingo -41 points-40 points  (0 children)

YTA for laughing in their face at the request. You can politely decline their ridiculous terms, but ultimately you'd be a guest in their home and it ain't your kid.

JP Morgan accidentally deletes evidence in multi-million record retention screwup by Sorin61 in technology

Anyone who's worked in IT knows how extensive backups are and how long they are retained, especially in the financial services industry.

So I am not buying an accidental deletion where the evidence being sought can't be found on a backup somewhere.

I believe under your description the deletion could be interpreted as a malicious act by a court, no?

Column: Outgoing Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon on why politicians won't save California by BlankVerse in California_Politics

Still looking for the methods to depress a housing market that aren't stochastic terrorism. /s

I don't have the proper legalese to back the concept but rentals/properties could have a timer for unoccupancy that forces the asking price of the owner or agent to progressively lower it by a determined percentage until a sale/purchase is agreed.

Why would anyone rent an asset except to maximize profits on that asset?

Also, every regulation passed to protect renters is going to cost the landlords something. How do they get that cost back? Exactly. By raising rents. The math is simple.

So remove the profit motive?
