  1. Loose them upon whom?

  2. I don't actually think Trump wants the job. I think he got in the race for the same reason he did previously: Publicity. But the lackluster candidates kept allowing him to win, and his ego is to big to have ever bowed out.

  3. The corpse of Richard Nixon would win in a landslide. Its not a very high hurdle.

  4. If they do this, I'm going to go into one every day, ask tons of questions of the few staff available, then say "that's OK, i'm going to order from Walmart Online" .

  5. Oh god. Life becomes a constant battle. I used to try to do this, and you find yourself analyzing everything . I eventually decided, like Kwerle, that it didn't matter. If the chef at a local restaurant is a rabid Stalinist, I don't really care as long as it doesn't influence the food quality or taste. Sometimes you just don't bring up differences that don't matter to the subject at hand.

    Obviously there's a limit to this. If he posts a "no blacks allowed" sign in the window, then I'm not going in either

    Those are actual salaries for California state employees.

    Oh, one last comment in closing. Could you Americans please not elect either of those horrendous leading candidates? Thank you.

    I would sell my soul to do what you're asking. And I'm really betting more than 50%, probably closer to 2/3 of the population, agree with me.

    Normal elections are usually like this: I agree roughly 65% with one candidate, and roughly 40% with the other, so I choose the 65%. Those percentages are based on policy as well as character, past performance and a belief in the candidate actually doing as promised.
    This election, I agree 5% with one candidate, and 3% with the other, with everyone shouting at me I'm a fool to not vote 5%

    If the Aleppo gaffe is your biggest worry: Information can be learned or farmed out to more capable subordinates. Morality, decency and honesty cannot.

  12. In a normal election cycle, this is true. In this one, he's the star pupil.
    Our choices:
    1-Criminal politician who makes bad decisions.
    2-Idiotic businessman with an ego problem.
    3-But.. but... but... the planet! woman
    4-Essentially honest guy who doesn't know enough.

    I'm going for #4

    They don't use the term "reds" anymore, that's 1950s-1980s dated. The correct usage today is "racist".

    Companies that behave like that, ignoring customers and doing whatever they want, are fine for a long time. Then, suddenly, sales fall and everyone stands around wondering what the hell happened. It's a gradual process that eventually goes over a cliff, and once it happens there's no turning it around.

    Ask Blackberry.
    Ask DEC
    etc...
