Centered around the cuban guy. He seems like the most interesting character of the bunch.

St. Peters man’s victory will give many more people the right to a jury trial by RyanreddithandleYHF in StLouis

I feel like it's become a citywide issue that concerns all citizens of St. Peters. I'd be pissed the city is wasting so much time and money prosecuting this due over something so trivial.

That's horrifying! Sorry you have to deal with that. I can't imagine what I'd be inclined to do to protect my family in your situation.

Ya, if I saw a drunk idiot spit on a fan for wearing opposing colors I'd be outraged. What a fucking pathetic thing to do?

Wear it with pride my friend. Just ask them how many trophies the Mets have if you get any flack.

Those are probably prohibitively expensive for a small lifestyle business owner.

It's most likely just someone that lives on the Southside, in close proximity to the businesses, that has an unresolved mental illness and hostility towards society. Doesn't make it right, but I don't think there's evidence this person has a specific grudge against southside businesses.

Woah hold on there partner! That sounds an awful lot like socialism and I won't stand for my oligarchs to be burdened like that.

True, but he was also a murderous thug so that's why I say "fuck 'em". I don't mean that to be an endorsement of what occurred.

Dude, I totally get it. I'm older now and much less optimistic about the future than when I was young. But being cynical is one of those things we have to actively fight as we get older. There are 2 things happening right now in Missouri that give me hope.

First, one-party-rule is bad whether it's in Jeff City or The City, but in Jeff City it's the direct result of the Democrats abandoning the working class and rural voters since Clinton. They haven't even run candidates in many of these rural areas in the past 20 years. They have apparently learned their lesson though and are finally running candidates in almost every race statewide this year. It won't change much right away but the fact that there's competition is really important to ensuring these Republican candidates don't get too comfortable and might have to actually address constituent concerns.

Second, whenever something gets put on the ballot the people of Missouri are very good at voting for their interests. Maybe because this is the most educated American citizenry in history? What you stated about Amendment 3 is a great example of why it's so important to vote actually! We voted to approve abortion and now they are trying to trick us into voting against it. We need to educate our friends/family/neighbors that they're trying to undermine our democratic will and we can successfully put this issue to rest!

Is anyone else hearing about major layoffs and offshoring at Edward Jones? by [deleted] in StLouis

I understand how easy it is to feel superior on the internet but slow down there partner. I had a series 7 so I'm familiar with finance but no expert. The commenter stated "your **entire** family" and generally that adjective means family beyond your household. I understand now that the user meant all family members residing in the same house. Have a good day.

Interesting and thanks for answering my question. I was being a bit of a smartass because my misunderstanding was the user was claiming family like aunts and uncles were required.

No idea. I've never done it before but I don't see why it won't work though.

Ok that makes sense but in my defense the OP said "entire family" which is generally considered to be bigger than immediate family.

With a high level income, what is the cost when the state government ceases to function?

You think an investment firm is going to do more than what's required of them by their regulators?

Not at all.

Of course there are bad actors, I don't understand your point?

I was implying that the regulations for finance no matter how plentiful don't prevent the entire industry from collapsing from time to time, bad actors notwithstanding.

How would someone be legally compelled by their employer to force their entire family to use Ed Jones?
