The funny thing is that the groups that actually make up the democratic coalition are opposed to one another. Should the GOP go to demographic ill-relevance, the Democratic party will likely splinter.
For example:
Hispanics and blacks are at odds with one another for jobs and public resources. Hispanics have pushed blacks out of some of their historical neighborhoods. Women's rights are at odds with muslim beliefs. Asian's are at odds with other non-white demographics over AA admissions and democratic economic policies run counter to asian entrepreneurs. Gay rights are at odds with hispanic and black religious beliefs.
The Republican party has the perception of being the party of white people, largely because they are indifferent to minorities, not because they advocate for whites. Its not like they are going to embrace being the white party because they are afraid of being called racists. A clever Republican politician could play those democratic groups against one another, but would probably take a lot of heat for doing so.
Why don't people invest more? Chinese peasants traditionally saved 50% of their income until consumerism took over in recent years,
Why don't people fix their own stuff (or pay more for higher quality that lasts longer)? Changing brake pads, various filters and fluids or oil on a car is not hard and requires less than a $100 investment in tools, even on cars with all sorts of fancy computers and sensors. Same is true for plumbing and electrical repairs on a house.
Why do people pay for cable, cell phone packages, large trucks and other stuff they don't need?
The average american home has increased more than 25% since the 50's. People have more cars and toys and eat out far more often than they did back then.
If you went back to a 1950's like lifestyle but on a 2015 income, you would be able to save a lot more money via frugality.
The stats on wealth don't bear that out, let alone people following the advice of Mr. Money Mustache.
If you work in software design or are a professional of any kind and don't get caught up in consumerism, its not that hard to get in the top 1% of wealth in the USA thanks to the magic of compounding. That 1% is either 1.5 million (according to the IRS) or ~9million according to most other sources.
A) the bill was written in such a way so that the CBO did not interpret the fine's as Taxes.
b) said : “In terms of risk-rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people are going to pay in—you made explicit that healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed, okay. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical for the thing to passLook, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not.”
Those who are culturally jewish or not strict adherents tend to be more liberal. Orthodox jews vote far more conservatively.
The american left is a pretty strange coalition. Many of the subgroups within the coalition have opposing interests and are only united by the fact that they are anti-republican. If the republican party is disolved, it will be interesting to see how if the democrats can stay unitied.
Productivity is way up since the 1950s. If you were to live according to a 1950's lifestyle including miles driven, size of home, vacation travel, amount of times going out to eat, drop internet, CATV, cell phones etc, you could save an enormous amount of money. Invest it in some index funds or take a dividend growth approproach and you would be pretty rich.
This is not the first time this has occured. Last time, the federal circuit overturned the PTAB's decision as they had determined that the plantiff's had waited too long before filing as the Redskin's trademark had been around for years.
I would presume that the NFL would wind up making a similiar argument during an appeal as this trademark has existed for years.
Nope, Javaris Crittenton is currently involved in the legal system for murder. Gilbert Arenas pulled a gun on another player over a dispute in the lockerroom.
There are a number of other examples, but I guess causing actual harm is less bad for the NBA than embarrasing the NBA and its sponsors.
There are plenty of places in PG, Fairfax, Montgomery, and Arlington for under 500 a month. My wife was making 19k a year as a UMD grad student just a few years ago and was renting rooms in Silver Spring and Gaithersburg for $300 a month. Somehow she saved 10k a year. After she got a real job, she paid about the same for a room in Philly near the italian market.
You can get signifigant savings if you are frugal and put the effort into it. Most people don't put the effort or feel entitled. They then go into debt or buy stuff they don't need which makes investors wealthy.
Americans get uppity about mistresses as it means the politician is compromised in some way. The politician could be blackmailed over it. The politician is not trustworthy. It implies that they are corruptible and have lied and makes us wonder what else they have lied about.
In our military, extra martial affairs are illegal for these very reasons.
Applicant has a duty to disclose (See MPEP 2001) any and all prior art that they are aware of at the time of filing.
Per MPEP 2001.01
(c) Individuals associated with the filing or prosecution of a patent application within the meaning of this section are: (1) Each inventor named in the application; (2) Each attorney or agent who prepares or prosecutes the application; and (3) Every other person who is substantively involved in the preparation or prosecution of the application and who is associated with the inventor, with the assignee or with anyone to whom there is an obligation to assign the application. *****
Individuals having a duty of disclosure are limited to those who are “substantively involved in the preparation or prosecution of the application.” This is intended to make clear that the duty does not extend to typists, clerks, and similar personnel who assist with an application.

Lincoln also wanted to send the slaves back to africa, didn't believe that whites and blacks should have equal rights either.

People don't seem to have that issue when it comes to social security though.

He works by choice as I recall as his expenses are around 25k a year and he has more than 25k a year in investment income.
Either way, it does not negate the fact that by living under your means you can enter the 1% if you have an professional level income.
The following webpage, which is admittedly is a few years old shows the calculations related to the numbers I presented.

I'd be quite happy if it triggered insulin production, but that would require a working pancreas.

Probably because we spend more than before?

What did you pay $500 for?
My inlaws are visiting from overseas so no insurance but:
$40 for a check up
$80 for x-rays
$20 for anti-biotics
All in cash.
Later we found out that we could have gotten it all for free via the county health department. I guess it depends on what you are getting treated for.
Paul Kersey?
CLEP is something that should be at the top of the discussion. Get many of your gen ed requriements out of the way for $80 a class.

multiple 4k streams?
and have 2 rate increases on internet services in the same year with no additional speed increase.
