#1. It's not a judge. It's the Supreme Court of the United States (It's an Associate Justice or Chief Justice if you want to be pedantic). This legal opinion is settled case law.
#2. There is NO WAY, whatsoever, to decide if a company is maximizing profits. You cannot require it. Spent $20 stocking the employee snack bar?!? You didn't maximize profits!
For example, organizations with religious and charitable aims might organize as for-profit corporations because of the potential advantages of that corporate form, such as the freedom to participate in lobbying for legislation or campaigning for political candidates who promote their religious or charitable goals.
See that sentence? A corporation can organize with religious goals as their priority. If they aren't a non-profit then they are a regular corporation.. But they DO NOT HAVE TO MAKE PROFIT THE PRIMARY GOAL. It's still a corporation, (S-Corp, LLC, C-Corp, etc)
I'm now ending these replies.. You are gonna cling to your false belief that a company has to maximize goals, even when the Supreme Court has clearly stated that you do not need to.
No it doesn't.. Jesus Christ this is simple reading comprehension. It says that not all companies that decline to organize (not reorganize) as a non-profit do so to maximize their profits. i.e. If you aren't a non-profit you can still operate with other goals instead of a maximized bottom line.
I posted the link so you could read the quote in its context. It's simple.. You can organize as a non-profit or you can not go that route, but you still don't have to make profit a priority.
We agree that it's legal to hire a male to play a male role in a play/movie, right?
We agree that it's legal to hire a female to be a birth surrogate, correct?
There's two perfectly valid examples. If Facebook takes away the ability to target job ads based on gender these two industries will have to waste 50% of their ad dollars..
No shit genius. My point was that if Facebook removes the option to target job ads at a specific gender then you are forcing companies to waste ad dollars on ads shown to the incorrect gender.
It is 100% legal to hire a male to fill a male acting role. Thus, to force a company to show an ad for said role to a woman is a waste of money.
Hooters hires women. They should have the ability to target their job ads to women only.
And you think this is the case behind this article? Facebook only targets jobs to men only if these are stripper jobs?
Doesn't matter. He's absolutely correct. If Facebook had removed the option to target an ad to men, it would be impossible to advertise for a male actor, or male extra, or male pornstar without wasting money. You'd be paying for ad impressions viewed by women. You'd be wasting, probably, somewhere near 50% of your advertising dollars.
You think they check the content of every ad to see what it's for? It's automated, for fuck's sake.. Credit card and some text in a form.. That's about the extent of Facebook's involvement.
Every time you bleeding liberals demand the state make a further restriction on our life and behavior, you have collateral damage. Of course, why the fuck should you care? Your ideology is being advanced.. fuck the peons..
Doesn't matter to you that, as several people have pointed out, that it is perfectly legal under some circumstances to target your ads at a single sex, race, age group, or religion. You're demanding the removal of the ability to do that... Punish the vast majority of the people for the actions of a very small minority.
Of course it is just...since 100% of the Seats of Boards of Directors of the Fortune 1000 corps are whites.
well that's a blatant lie. The stats, according to forbs.com, is that 72% are white male. Latino and black executives are represented by 9 and 13 percentage points.
If you are going to lie, be less obvious about it.. Claiming 100% just begs someone to look it up.
I disagree. It's more like sampling the FBI's top 10 wanted list.. and seeing how many don't get caught.. (most do, eventually). Your own argument is flawed.. You don't know how many do a crime and get away with it.. I don't know.. Nobody can know.. Committing crimes is, in and of itself, an idiotic act. If you commit crimes, you may be caught and may have to go to prison... Why would anyone want that? Well... smart people wouldn't.. Only idiots place themselves in that kind of jeopardy.
I like that show "Bait Car". Always have to chuckle when the crook is stealing the car and you hear him asking himself "I wonder if this is a bait car"...... Well, if you weren't stealing fucking cars you wouldn't have to worry about it...
A lot of what you say might be true for any given individual.. Or it might not.. When life hands you a bum hand you have to work extra hard to deal with it..
You aren't gonna win me over to the whole "oh those poor people, they have it so tough". We all have our own personal hardships.. Every single person has some burden of some type.. Some have burdens that are harder, some less so... Good decisions are always practical.. Those three steps.. I'll hand you the High School one and say... yeah.. that one might be tough if you have to work to support your family, BUT you can always go back and finish... The list doesn't say you have to graduate HS _today_. The rest.. If you are gonna make excuses for them, you can piss off.. Nobody needs to get pregnant and having a tough life isn't an excuse for leading a criminal life.. If you just absolutely have to have sex and you can't afford a condom, then you'll just have to be happy with one of the other two holes.. There is no excuse.
If, by some chance, there is some ultra small percentage of the population that is just absolutely fucked over by life, well we deal with those people individually, but you don't start changing a system that works for the vast majority of people to accommodate a tiny minority.
maybe not the best analogy.. but... if you had cancer on your fingertip, I'm pretty damn sure the doctor wouldn't suggest chemotherapy... You deal with the fingertip... You don't subject the whole body to some invasive and destructive procedure..
I don't generally like the HuffingtonPost but.. for this one time.. According to that liberal rag... 14.8% of Americans live below the poverty line... That means that over 85% DO NOT. i.e. The system is working pretty good.. Of the 14.8%, some percentage is criminals or drug addicts.. some are single mothers... and yeah, some have just been shit on by life.. But it's not 14.8% who've been shit on... So quit it with the "our society fucks people over"..
But you wouldn't argue against condom use just because sometimes people who use them still create babies.
Is there really anything in the advice given that you would argue against? I've given my kids more or less the same advice. Their future is an open book filled with promise, as long as they don't do anything fatally stupid like creating a baby, getting a record, dropping out of high school, getting drug addicted, etc. Do you advise your kids otherwise?
I like your analogy. You're absolutely correct of course.. Condoms are about 93%-97% effective.. We feel sorry for the 3% to 7% who made the effort, used them, and had bad results... But we don't feel sorry for the assholes who didn't even bother to use them...
And no.. there aren't many factors to being successful.. Successful just means pulling you own weight... It doesn't mean rich... But to leftists, who possess more jealousy than any other people I've ever met, I can see where you'd not get that..
All you have to do is a few simple things and LOTS OF WORK.. Yeah, you gotta put in the sweat equity and have a set of balls.. Be a man. Quit blaming everyone else for your lot in life.. Nobody out there is trying to keep you down.. Sorry, but you just aren't important enough to waste the energy on..
Try as you might, you aren't gonna turn the snowflake term around.. It's not Yankee Doodle. Liberals are snowflakes because you think you're special.. You aren't. You're just another human.. And if you can't even pull your own weight, you're not even a good human..
Your system sucks.. it has always sucked, and it will always fail because it relies on others to do for you.. Well, there won't always be others to do for you... Learn to do for yourself or fuck off and make room for someone who will..
Awww, did the widdle snowflake get his feewings hurt when the mean ole man pointed out the facts?
Leftist cunts are never happy with anything. You give them free internet and a computer 5 days a week and they'll bitch about the other two days.
it's not as simple as staying open.. The library would have to hire ANOTHER person, part time, to run the library for those two days.. But hey, to leftist cunts it doesn't matter because they're never spending their own money... It's always supposed to be paid for by those awful rich people who don't do their fair share..
I'd be willing to bet that Indiana is probably in much better fiscal shape than my shitty state which currently has a $400 BILLION dollar debt load.. CA didn't get to this position by making fiscally sound choices.. I applaud Indiana for having the library open 5 days a week and closing them 2 days a week.. Sounds like the state is being run by smart folks.
I cant' tell you when it's all gonna come crashing down, but it will... CA can't have an infinite debt load... So there must be an upper limit... You libtards just refuse to accept that... It's like you don't understand money and/or debt and/or responsibility...
Why is it the same assholes who who don't get fiscal responsibility also don't get personal responsibility? Everything is somebody else's fault and everything should be paid for by somebody else... Well, we're gonna run out of "somebody else" eventually...
Clearly you didn't read the article at all... The whole system is based upon cameras watching you pick up items. You don't have to scan them... You just pick the fuckers up.. That means, by design, the cameras can see every single item in the store.. So... I'm gonna guess that there aren't too many blind spots and if there are any it's in areas that don't have any items..
So, once again, good luck with your plan.. Doesn't matter if you are deterred or not, you'll be on a crap load of cameras and when Amazon offers the reward for information, I hope none of your neighbors, friends, or family are hard up for cash.
I'd be willing to bet that the vast majority of assholes sitting in prison thought, at one point, "Hey, I bet I'll get away with this".. (not implying you'll end up in prison for shoplifting, just that criminals are, generally, idiots and nobody ever thinks that they'll get caught)
So, by all means.....Show us how you are the arch criminal who won't be caught.... asshole.
There are only 3 steps you need to have a 97% chance of ending up in the middle class.
1. Graduate High School. (not college, just high school)
2. Stay out of prison. (don't commit felonies)
3. Don't have a child out of wedlock (use a rubber or learn to like blowjobs)
That's it....
You do those three things and the odds are very much in your favor that you'll do just fine in this country. Nobody out there is trying to "keep you down", asshole. Most people end up where they are because of the choices that they have made. When you make bad choices, you have to pay the piper... Well, unless you subscribe to the liberal mindset, in which case nothing is ever your fault..
Do you all sit around all day imagining that rich people are gathered in dimly lit rooms, smoking cigars, and drinking single malt whiskey, while planning on how to keep poor people "in their place"?
For fuck's sake...
Yeah, those 3%, they'll do all the right stuff and luck or the system will shit on them, and that sucks... But most people will do just fine.
Can't wait to hear from all the liberals about how multiple internet devices (and free access) are now a human right.... THE RICH MUST PAY THEIR SHARE...
Slashdot Mirror
It's blanket statements like these......
Different states, different rules.. Different countries, different rules.
Ever think that "wife's company" might mean the company owned by the wife?
Says who? You just making shit up? A husband and wife MIGHT own something jointly, but it's not automatic.
More than one.
What's your point? Do you think they are sending the bits one at a time?
Right... 100 billion asteroids out there.. But this one has aliens on it....

As has been pointed out several times before, there is NO LEGAL REQUIREMENT to maximize profits. Stop with the falsehoods.
Here is a quote from the Supreme Court of the United States:
“Not all corporations that decline to organize as nonprofits do so in order to maximize profit.”
In other words, you do NOT have to maximize profits.
