So, yes I have, and as a fiscal conservative, who also has to support a mother who can't survive on her social security w/o my help, I found the following article very intriguing.
We've failed to reign in the monopolistic behavior here in the U.S. There is no free market when one or two companies have it locked up. Cable companies, satellite radio, Microsoft, etc., etc...all virtual monopolies. Sure, you have other "choices"...if you want to life on the fringe.
We need to get the big money out of politics, and stop the bullshit about corporate "speech" being a constitutional right.
At least those people were typically actually watching for traffic before taking a risk. It wasn't a Darwin move unless they were actually causing a hazard. The sign shouldn't read "Don't Walk", it should indicate that traffic has the right of way, so step out at your own risk...or more simply YIELD.
I'm a hiring manager in NoVA (also lived in Columbia,MD), and I know plenty others that will accept experience in lieu of education. So, I'll beg to differ.
And yet, we spend more per pupil than nearly every other country. So, any claim regarding increased funding, while it may sound logical, isn't backed up by any evidence. Note, that I'm not disagreeing with your assertion on class size, only that I prefer to deal with evidence based decision making, as "common sense" isn't always correct.
The only "NYC lower" managers getting 60k work at McDonalds and such. Anyone in a tech field in NYC that's not making 6 digits is either not trying or an idiot. Same for the DC area. You could barely live on 60k in either location w/o help from family or living with someone. Rent alone would be half your gross (not net) pay.
Please link to examples where any major public school system has improved objectively measured metrics by throwing more money at the problem. I'm all for better schools, but I've seen way too much waste.
Hey, I tend to vote Rep., and while I'm not all that happy with what he's done, I don't disagree that we were in the dump at the start. But, I think we could argue about how long it took to turn around the economy, or about transparency, or about foreign policy. And, all that said, I'd still put him somewhere in the middle of the pack, but nowhere near the bottom of that list. I think presidents get judged by the people they surround themselves with, because those are the folks advising him, and actually directing most things.
Hi, I'm a white person from South Africa. I'm African American.
Reminds me of my Egyptian coworker who applied for and won a scholarship for African Americans. They weren't happy when they discovered this, but couldn't do anything to overturn it.
This is a solution looking for a problem. A motion sensing camera would be a less expensive solution, and also capture anything happening in the room...it's not always done on the mattress, go figure. The mattress also isn't going to give you a clue as to who's ass you need to kick.
Turns out it's the maid and the gardener.
But, did they do it on the mattress, or in the library. Sorry, I don't have a Clue.
Their silence tells you everything you need to know.
Really? Any idea how long it takes to chase down leads, especially if it connects to unfriendly places? How long did it take to hunt down Bin Laden, and did we get a play-by-play while it was going on? No, your premise that it tells you anything isn't logical.

+1 Sir.

Those polls are nearly worthless at this point. There's plenty of historical evidence of that. Much of the country isn't even engaged.

We're already superior to them. The financial impact? Hmmm. Fewer idiots, cleaner gene pool, lower unemployment....YES.

Apologies...replied to the wrong post.

Are you paid in $? Is the Dept of Labor in your country? From the summary, it would appear to narrow the choices just a bit.
Incorrect. I've been a contractor for 34 years. Overtime is up to the company, and only with the permission of the government.

You might want to learn how pension funds are paid for before spouting off.

Current rankings by historians put him middle of the pack. But IMO, it's way too early to pass final judgment.

No, executive orders can be reversed at any time by the occupant of the White House. Nice try.
Umm, no. The executive branch doesn't control the judicial.
Ah, and in the last eight years, what had the Obama administration done to counter that? Fucking moronic AC.

Post with your account if you want an answer. Otherwise we'll just assume you're the parent.
Got any evidence to prove government involvement?

Wish I had mod points for ya. You and I don't agree on much, but I'm with you on this.
