I would back you, but then women by the simple virtue of having boobs get paid a heck of a lot more than men as food servers/bar tenders and make an absolute killing in strip clubs, so cry me a river about no skill jobs paying dick all.
There is the simple fact the women tend to gravitate towards professional jobs that are physically comfortable and safe, which tend to pay less. People that work in McDonalds and in Amazon warehouse represent less than a few percent of the total labor market.
At my time at UPS unloading trucks. There were a grand total of 4 women that worked with us out of 100+ people. The other dozen women that worked in the same unit were auditors, where the heaviest thing you had to lift was a clip board and a pencil. In 1989 the truck unloader started at $8 and could get up to $10 after the first year. The auditors made minimum wage, if I remember was around $4 at the time. They might see an extra 50 cents after a year. As soon as the "little girls" are willing to step up and do the hard dirty work, they will get paid more.
LOL. It is so cute when someone who has never served tries to call out someone who is currently serving in the military, for 20 years btw, and doesn't have a clue how the rank and file feel about the things our government does.
There are those that squealed like teenage girls when the President stopped by for a visit, but then the girls of the finance section are only a danger to you if you are a sugary baked good, the bulk of the rest of us would not tolerate the military turning on the civilian population.
Who buys their guns from Walmart? I get my guns from the same places as the police (not to mention better quality than what the military uses) from a wonderful place. It's called a gun store.
Sure they don't sell bombers and guided missiles, but then if we ever get to that point, there won't be much of a military left for the gov't to use against us, because they are US.
Unlike in the rest of the world, we as civilians have access to just about everything your standard infantryman is issued.
You are forgetting about the Pre-pre-amble to the Constitution aka the Declaration of Independence. It has a few things to say about the rule of government and the rights and responsibilities of the people.
"...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.......But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security
More power to them. If they can do it cheaper/better (and far cleaner) than public transportation, then fuck public transportation.
Personally I find the obsession to living in cities to be more than a little strange. Right now I'm living on the outskirts of Tampa, which is almost too close for me. Being stuck in DC or NY or San Fran again makes my teeth ache.
The fact that I am out in farm country with a triple digit symmetrical FIOS connection just tells me life is can be very good living even out in the boonies.
If know one knows what you are doing, then you are original. Once all the major trendy stores start carrying it and it has a name it is mainstream. Once Wal-Mart starts carrying it, it is over.
So what you are saying when I put a case of beer in the fridge, sometimes it only makes the air in the fridge cold, and other times it only makes the beer cold.
That is amazing. Science is neat!
Or maybe the other thing that is missing from that theory, other than recordable heat, is logic. I personal would like to see math and the recordings on that baloney.
Doctor: "You have a certain kind of microbes in your gut that causes your body to absorb more of what you eat"
Patient: "What should I do?"
Doctor: "Eat less"
It still boils down to the behavior of the individual.
Personally I don't see how this is a bad thing. This is a big boon for feeding the world. The problems are individual and cultural.
You don't want to be fat, eat less and exercise more, that or go see your doctor have him sterilize your digestive track and repopulate it with the "skinny people" poop pill. (They actually do this with pills made of poop, insane.)
*Nobody* should have to pay through taxes for construction in such places. It's a really risky and foolish place to build. For example, any barrier island system is guaranteed to be moving around and be overtopped by storms from time to time on 100-year timescales. It's a nice place to visit, but people who insist on building there should be floating all of the costs on their own.
Ask any scuba diver, they'll pretty much tell you that vast areas underwater are simply sand. There is no shortage of sand in the world.
Where the sand shortage occurs is between the ocean and the very expensive homes built on/near the beach. Beaches move either due to build up or erosion. This greatly annoys the people who own said expensive homes hence the complaints of the "shortage" of sand.
They do not like to have to pay, either directly or through taxes, to have the beach line and inter coastal areas maintained.
We are also running out of idiotic tree huggers.....oh wait no we are not. I know let's use them to prevent erosion, bury them head first down at the waters edge.
This is stupid, if you have a basic machine shop, access to a electronics supply store, and some raw materials you have what it takes to make nuclear weapons. How exactly do you think they did it back in the day? They didn't special order it out of a catalog.....
Someone already pointed it out to me earlier. The poor didn't get health care, they go health insurance. A large portion of doctors have bowed out of Medicare and Obamacare so the reality is they pretty much have nothing but a piece of paper and a monthly bill.
That is some pretty fucked up logic. The Republicans thought it up, but the Democrats took it ran with it and shoved it down our throats, but really it's the Republican's fault.
How did you not manage to snap your spine pulling of those contortions?
You make a whole bunch of biomass every morning. Instead of dumping into the river maybe towns could collect it and make bio gas. (Not to mention the yard clipping and garbage pick up twice weekly.)
Not sure how well the mobile part works when you actually have to pay for the insurance. A lot of people I know don't leave a job not because of their health insurance but because of all the other debt payments and obligations. P>
ACA does not get "free" until you are pretty heavy out of pocket on expenses or have been unemployed for some time. Also thanks to the stipulations in the ACA if you move to another State guess what does NOT follow you there, that's right your insurance, because now you have to join an insurance provider in that State. Yours in most cases will not be waiting for you there.
If anything it binds you even tighter to a job and location.
but now we're stuck with a golden goose for the insurance companies (aka a Republican wet dream).
Not a single Republican voted for Obamacare, so exactly how does it make it their "wet dream"? The Democrats are bought and paid for by the banking industry and Wallstreet. The insurance industry is just a sublet of the banking. The Republicans are bought and paid for by farming, energy, and military industries. At least try to get the group you want to blame right or you come off sounding like a moron.

Uh, last time I checked I said the Pre-Preamble to the Constitution. Thanks for the fact check fail. It was quite amusing.

System: 2 shots on floor 1 room 1.
System: 3 shots on floor 1 hallway main
System: 15 shots floor 1 main commons
System: 5 shots floor 2 main stair well
System: 9 shot admin section
Sure helps a lot with those people getting shot doesn't it? Nothing will stop the shooter until the people with guns arrive on the scene.
This is nothing more than security theater. This will prevent nothing and is dubious as to how useful the info will be to the security responders.
Let's not forget this will do nothing to help with people walking around with Molotov cocktails or a bow/cross bow, or a blade, etc.
Arm the teachers, if they don't want to do it, then maybe they are not really serious about the welfare of their students.
You obviously never took physics or chemistry then.

That reminds me of a demotivational poster. "Goth Kids, being lonely.....together."

California would never be found on that map.

Oh look your bias is showing, might want to pull your pants back up and wipe off your mouth.
How did you not manage to snap your spine pulling of those contortions?
So why didn't they just pass a law banning pre-existing condition exclusions instead of the whole ass-hat thing they came up with?
