Well, I can see the logic: Given two choices, A and B, each with different trade-offs, but in which case the net benefits are roughly EQUAL, then go with the choice that's the least gov't interference.
Good job rephrasing things in a completely fucking dishonesty bullshit way.
The net benefits arent roughly equal. Thats the fucking issue when some people are harmed while others are helped. You dont get to just say that they are equal anyways.... thats called dishonesty you fucking lying fuck,
You do realize that not removing this distorted data in any professional capacity will get bad things on your doorstep, right?
I only realize that a process which only cuts outliers from one end, is bullshit.
Clearly you do not, even though you did all that thinking to write all those words, you didnt even consider it. This is because you are a complete fucking idiot.
Well the answer to the question is "the kind of business environment we have now is the kind you get when companies cant rely on being treated fairly under the law."
I dont see how that is facile tho, nor is it really fascinating.
If businesses were treated fairly under the law, there wouldnt be nearly as much lobbying. New industries in America pay what is literally the highest tax rate in the world, and they continue to do so until they lobby federal and local governments for the same tax breaks and tax incentives that congress and local governments has given to older industries that have already lobbied. If the highest tax rate in the world is too oppressive for the new industry to compete on a global level, the lobbying never happens, the industry never has the cash to lobby, and America is lesser for it.
it has taken the Republicans and Corporate Democrats decades of non stop corruption and anti competitive activism to undo the damage of that mistake.
Notice how even though it was Bill Clinton, you begin with "the Republicans..." and then amazingly qualify the rest as "..and the Corporate Democrats"... so all Republicans and just some of the Democrats... not all Democrats and just some of the Republicans.
Isnt that weird? Isnt it weird that a Democrats is blaming the Republicans again for what the Democrats signed into law? Isnt that weird?
With any luck the Democrats party will disintegrate in the next 4 years. Only then can the Republican disintegrate. This is so due to the Democrats being so bad.. so awful... that the Republicans look like the good guys. Its your fault Democrats. Clean up your shit so that these two parties can finally die.
It seems to me that whenever we get you pro-tax-increase folks to define what your jealousy-fueled bullshit terms are (like "ultra-rich") I find out that either the median income folks are included in your "ultra-rich" group, or that you grossly over-estimated (multiple orders of magnitude) how much money can be gotten out of the "ultra-rich."
For instance we were told that the "Bush Tax Cuts" were tax cuts for the "ultra-rich" but amazingly it was median incomes that got the biggest tax break. Obama made them permanent because of this fact. A fact the left will continue to ignore forever, because jealousy.
All the Blue States I know of have voter I.D. laws.
So what we can take away from this is that so long as the State is already Blue, voter I.D. laws are OK, but in States that arent Blue yet, voter I.D. laws are racist.
That is exactly what these greenie lefties are responding to. They have no idea what any of it means, so the magnitude of the numbers is what riles them up.
Unfortunately "they" in this "corporate masters" case are lots of different entities each with their plans and motivations. That is distinctly not a conspiracy.
This is my take:
If the Democrats were good people, they wouldnt have to pretend so hard to be good people, and thus wouldnt suggest such a stupid asinine thing as withholding someones diploma from them for obviously fucked up virtue-signaling reasons. This guys plan is actively harmful. He is punching the citizens while pretending that its a good thing.
I don't know how much swiss cheese Linux is, but I do know that as things like routers get more and more powerful, the desire to attack them will grow and grow.
Back before Win3.1+Winsock and Win95, there were almost weekly CERT advisories about unix-based exploits, but as Windows grew to dominate on the internet (at least by users) it switched to almost weekly CERT advisories about windows-based exploits.
It isnt that any of these things is secure. My money would be on OpenBSD being the most secure, but thats based on data collected in a world where hardly anybody would waste their time attacking BSD (even Apples BSD derivative gets more attention.)
I hope there is a return to ROM rather than FLASH/EEPROM for devices like home routers... but... I also hope the Democrat party disappears the way the Whigs did. Hope doesnt always translate into reality, but on both these issues there might be a chance.
Or do you just not ever speak ill of the home team?
I speak ill of the worst first.
My "home team" only got 3.28% of the vote.
You seem to be projecting your own deficiencies here. (A) You are defending "your side", (B) you are pretending that there are "only two sides", and (C) you are pretending that the Democrats arent clearly worse than everybody else. Too bad, they are. Clearly worse. Horrible people.
Ethics in journalism only exists in what is called the "alternative media" now, and of course not ALL alternative media, but certainly some of it.

CNN reporter: "Yes that makes sense"
That is how disconnected to reality CNN is. I predict the doxxing of CNN employees will go on for years, but what do I know... I just paid attention to gamergate and the multi-faction multi-doxxing extravaganza that landed on everybody.
Andrew Kaczynski claims he found this guy, but he also claims this guy found him, in two different tweets.
Andrew Kaczynski job at CNN is going through archival footage and editing it to create new narratives. That is literally his job. The lies he tweets is just a hobby.

The same conservatives who complain about CNN's shenanigans have ignored similar crap from Fox News.
Exactly how many people are you going to throw under the bus defending CNN?
Its the fact that the Democrats keep killing single-payer legislation that proves they dont actually support the concept.
Their words dont match their actions. They never have in my lifetime.
and big increases in taxes on the ultra-rich.

Look this is really simple:
Is the count of eyeballs correct, or not?
It does matter if something else gets those eyeballs, be it a sporting event, an election, an empty podium...
Its fraud against the advertisers, and Nielsen is a co-conspirator.
I would pay $50/month if there was a service that offered everything ever produced, both audio and video, on demand and without commercials.
For that same service, but WITH commercials, I wouldn't even pay $1/month.
Hulu will never get any of my business as things stand.
Do you think the people that lose think its not doom?
Its the government actively harming people. Thats your mixed bag.
He only considers it an issue in States that voted for Trump.
All the Blue States I know of have voter I.D. laws.
So what we can take away from this is that so long as the State is already Blue, voter I.D. laws are OK, but in States that arent Blue yet, voter I.D. laws are racist.
The Democrats didn't raise any sticks about the election itself being hacked, you just made that up.
Please... they screamed it very loudly. They are still screaming it.
In fact, the Democrats were calling the Republicans "unpatriotic" for not blindly believing it.
So what your saying is that now that Republicans are in full control of the Federal branches, that Democrats suddenly rediscovered States rights?
But OH NOES BIG NUMBER!!!!
That is exactly what these greenie lefties are responding to. They have no idea what any of it means, so the magnitude of the numbers is what riles them up.
So what you are saying is:
Lets create a bunch of problems. Then we get to solve those problems.
Most people don't pay anything for public K-12 education outside a registration fee and sometimes to play a sport or join a club.
Yeah, its never been funded out of most peoples property taxes... oh wait... its almost entirely funded from most peoples property taxes.
Local property tax rates are always highly dependent on the ratio of people to schools within the township or county.
Now its time to shut the fuck up about shit you dont know anything about. K? TX.
Unfortunately "they" in this "corporate masters" case are lots of different entities each with their plans and motivations. That is distinctly not a conspiracy.

They've sucked you into this manufactured left/right dichotomy
No they didn't. I am from neither the "left" nor the "right"
You are imposing the dichotomy... RIGHT NOW.. by presuming it of others.
Or do you just not ever speak ill of the home team?
I speak ill of the worst first.

Except both sides are dishonest.
You know whats also dishonest?
A) Pretending that there are only two sides.
B) Pretending that one of the sides isnt clearly worse.
