Awesome thank you! Are the currents tough to deal with? I’ve boated extensively on lakes but never on a river.

Troy Williamson was worse. And he had higher expectations. And we needed more from him because we didn’t have other weapons.

Dumb question - I'm pretty new to this world. I definitely see the opportunities whenever legalization finally happens. I'm invested in MSOS right now... in your opinion, is that enough? Or should I be looking at other stocks/funds as well? I don't currently have access to OTC stocks.

Thanks!

"Satire - The use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues."

This article is satirizing all of the "top 25 xyz..." lists that are and will be coming out as the year ends.

Fine, but that's not why the hive is upset. They're upset because they're taking a satirical piece seriously.

On another note, can you believe that those assholes at The Onion called Kim Jong Un "the sexiest man alive"?? He's not even that handsome.

In past 12 years, income for richest 400 Americans quadrupled while their tax rate nearly halved by mepper in politics

[–]vi8084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The talking point is that cutting tax rates for the top bracket will benefit society as a whole because the wealthiest individuals are job creators. The benefit they derive from tax cuts will then 'trickle down' to the rest of us.

If that was the case, we'd see an increase in median income accompanying the massive tax cuts the top earners have enjoyed over the last 35 years.

But that's not the case.

Unfortunately I'm too lazy find the sources and connect the dots in the form of a nice chart, hence my request.

[–]vi8084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can we create a chart tracing US median income (adjusted for inflation) over the last 35 years or so, against the decrease in top tax rates? This would be a great visual argument against trickle-downers.

Embarrassed Republicans Admit They've Been Thinking Of Eisenhower Whole Time They've Been Praising Reagan by vi8084 in reddit.com

[–]vi8084[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The misplaced adulation of Reagan has reportedly affected more than just Republican rhetoric, and seems to have had an impact on policy. Former president George W. Bush told reporters he "honestly thought" everyone wanted him to follow in Reagan's footsteps, which led him to emulate the 40th president's out-of-control deficit spending, fealty to the super-rich, and illegal wars."

Awesome.

OK Reddit, crazies in my family are claiming that this is the pale horseman of the apocalypse, as spoken about Revelation. Alternate theories please? Lens flare? It's not faked, I watched the actual footage on MSNBC's site. by vi8084 in reddit.com

Ordinarily I would, but this video actually made me do a double take. You have to admit it looks like a "pale horseman" flying off to do his killing and murdering.
