"What UpGuard appears to have discovered, sitting on an Amazon cloud storage drive with no password or username required for access by anyone on the internet," https://theintercept.com/2017/...
I don't think anyone needs to hack that to get it.
' Think of the great things that the ultra-wealthy and giant corporations can do with real tax relief. Give real tax relief to Joe six-pack, and he'll just go buy a case - where's the greatness in that?'
And they will do the same thing they are doing now: saving it for a rainy day, buying back stock, dividends (maybe) acquisitions. None of these puts money into the economy. At best, they put a few extra dollars in another rich persons savings account.
Give tax relief to Joe six-pack and he will go buy another case. That puts the money back into the economy. Beer guy delivers more beer. Brewery brews more beer. Rich guys only need so many yachts.
Yes. It was two massive tax cuts with rebates. I know I got mine and while happy at the pittance of a check, was rather disappointed that we couldn't just let the budget balance.
The rest is just hyperbole. After 9/11 we spent ten trillion bailing out the banks and airlines and paying for an unfunded war. Consequently, All this ghost money was borrowed from SSI and will probably never paid back. And this was all before the collapse of 2008. This current 20 trillion dollar deficient could get fixed real quick if we give the banks the 11 T they were handed. Airlines another 2 or 3. Boeing a couple of hundred billion them selves. After all the corporate bailouts are paid back what's left of our deficit?
This isn't evidence or a lack of it, but this guy has the best explanation: Short of a three letter agency providing something definitive, there is nothing but speculation and a lot of circumstantial evidence. Much of it of questionable origin. https://theintercept.com/2016/...
I'm still waiting to see anything concrete either way. Generally, where there is smoke there is fire, but in this case I'm starting to wonder. We might find out soon. We might not.
Let's see. First we have more than one can reference on the swamp draining: Search google for "Trump drain the swamp" and you'll find a quick 469,000 articles to reference.

We all know there are ties. To think not is just hiding your head in the sand. The problem is, we just don't know how far the rabbit hole goes with these ties.
As for Flynn,he got caught lying under oath to Congress, about communications with the Russian Ambassador. If you even think we don't bug every foreign official's phone in this country you might need to catch up. We've been recording foreign phone calls for generations now. They are legal as it is in many states as long as one party consents. State rules do not apply federally. Your state may vary. Where did you find your "non-investigated US citizen" thing from? Anyone calling a known suspect is now, automatically, an unknown suspect.
I think the President needs to put up some proof also if he has claims to make.
The 1.5 billion-dollar one million square-foot Bluffdale / Camp Williams LEED Silver facility houses a 100,000 sq-ft mission critical Tier III data center. The remaining 900,000 SF is used for technical support and administrative space. Our massive twenty building complex also includes water treatment facilities, chiller plants, electric substation, fire pump house, warehouse, vehicle inspection facility, visitor control center, and sixty diesel-fueled emergency standby generators and fuel facility for a 3-day 100% power backup capability.
Data Storage Capacity
In February 2012, Utah Governor Gary R. Herbert revealed that the Utah Data Center would be the "first facility in the world expected to gather and house a yottabyte". Since then, conflicting media reports have also estimated our storage capacity in terms of zettabytes and exabytes. While the actual capacity is classified for NATIONAL SECURITY REASONS, we can say this: The Utah Data Center was built with future expansion in mind and the ultimate capacity will definitely be "alottabytes"!
Excellent start in the the MCSE! Perfect example! But as a whole, the entire market has matured and prices have dropped. I know from my last job, computer automation allowed/forced us to drop 8 IT positions. The 4 left were higher skilled, but not at the pay level to go with it. I left the medical manufacturing field. The same thing is happening here in the medical services field. Through automation, it requires less to support more in the support fields and in the remote locations. Onsite medical personnel enter information directly into EMR systems. This in itself has eliminated large amounts of people in billing and accounting. What was once supported by dozens is now down to 3. Same for the legal side. Even if you have the skills, there are only so many slots left open. They can change fields. Maybe go over and get a Masters or PHD in medical and become a Therapist. It's an empty field, but how many advance Therapists will it take before it fills up and how many of those jr accountants have it in them to be MD's/almost MD's?
A prime example is the shipping industry. It used to take hundreds of people to crew a ship. Now the ships are 100 times the size, mostly automated and down to a crew of 12. Or Navy destroyer from WWII with 350 plus personnel now coming in at 140 with a Marine detachment.
Even in my job, in two years I'll have automated myself out of a job at this place. Have the MSP on call for critical failures. It's only a matter of time until the only people left with jobs are the on-call service people, emergency responders, fast food workers, and highly skilled consultants in all the fields for second opinions. The rest of us will be organic farmers, artists, bums, research groups, and just general all around vagrants. It will take time. Maybe a couple of hundred years, But it will happen.
Yes it has been debunked, but I don't think that turned out the way you think it did. You see, all the earlier advancements eliminated jobs. Some of these people learned the skills to use the new machine while others were now free to do something else. There was a percentage that was not capable, through health or education or genetics, to move on. They became day laborers, bums, whatever you want to call them. After a few cycles of this, we started wising up and doing little things. We saw how those who accumulated massive sums of money used that to bully the workers and the government. The workers unionized and the gov started busting. Workers wages starting keeping up with the new skills. Fast forward to WWII, and the return of the Greatest Generation. They went through hell and came back to make the world a better place. They built road systems for the common good. Formalized social safety nets, etc. Life was good and the boomers had a good life. The boomers started coming of age in the 70's and so did the systematic dismantling of the work previous generations did to get them there. The were the first truly entitled generation and proceeded to rape pillage and plunder the economy for their gain. They systematically have called for the dismantling of unions which has directly/indirectly led to middle class wages stagnating to what they were in the 70. Inflation adjusted, while my salary is more than double of my fathers, my purchasing power is about 2/3's. So not only have we lost a percentage of jobs from each mechanical or technical wave, we have had a downward push on economic influences over the last 50 years. At the end of the day, not only are you going to have an exponential loss of jobs for people to do, the knowledge to do those jobs will become less valuable as the tools to perform those jobs become more abundant. Don't believe me? Look at the historical pay scales for IT work. As more tools are created, the value of what you do diminishes.
The reason the seal was killed is because the whole lot of them failed to review the mission on the intel and realize the mission was compromised. How, we don't know yet. The reason the seal was killed was because they didn't call it off when they were reaffirmed that the mission was compromised when they entered the area. The reason the children were killed is they went in to a hot LZ with the guns blazing. True,, the women were armed, thus targets, but you don't go kicking in peoples front door and not expect them to protect the kids. It was a poorly executed raid that was just done for spite. Once they learned it was compromised there was nothing useful to be had from it and it was done just for show. Nice show! I bet the fireworks were awesome watching the 70m Osprey go up in a ball of orange wonderfulness. They claim they got something useful out of it. Time will tell. Report on the ground say they didn't even enter the compound and the women picked up the guns from fallen men.
Her father had been killed years ago. This was uncalled for by any stretch of the imagination. She , as well as her father were both American citizens. While I'm not saying he didn't need to be dealt with, (which should have been through a court of law) this was just uncalled for.
And before you call me a bleeding heart liberal, I'm retired usmc with 23 years and 3 combat deployments.
I don't know where you live but it's not winter in Antarctica:
"On Antarctica's coast, where our stations are located, there are usually a couple of weeks in mid-winter (around 21 June) when the sun does not rise, and a couple of weeks in summer around Christmas when there is 24-hour sunlight"
This has less to do with their true value and the unrealistic swelling of the stock markets. Just as during the.com days, this too is a sign of the next bubble is about to burst. Hold on...this has potential to be a big one.
