Horribly impractical? It's a cylinder with what is now comparatively cheap pretty bits stuck on the outside. It only looks impractical if you focus on the pretty bits, which are really just cantilevered balconies that don't go out an enormous distance (just like on a lot of other buildings but arranged in a different way).
Since it's reason versus fantasy it's difficult to be polite. The politics isn't even conservative versus not - Thatcher took the side of the experts versus fantasy with climate change. The politics is being paid by a vested interest who wishes to push a fantasy versus not being paid by that vested interest.
To dumb it down - his daddy was rich and very politically connected you tool. "Old money" was just a shorthand for that and not that he can trace his family back to William of Orange.
All your link shows again is that EPI is an organization of dishonest partisan hacks
It just happened to be one of many hits on a google search so all I can conclude here is either you are a different type of dishonest partisan hack or arguing against reality as some sort of mass debating game.
Sadly a lot of it is nefarious. Take a look at most orgs during boom times and it's not hard to spot the crooks. Many are quite flashy with their looted wealth when they think the shareholders or customers are not looking.

All of those arguments about Linux and Mac being super secure back before there was enough market share for people to care to try to attack them.
Those arguments started to look as utterly stupid as they are to just about everyone around 2000 when Macs started becoming more common and linux ended up on a lot of servers and gadgets. I hope for your sake that you were attempting to make a joke.
I find it funny that a born to the purple old money guy like Trump that has been lurking on the fringe of politics for decades is seen as "anti-establishment". He IS the "establishment" FFS!. If you can't trust an Atlantic City casino boss to look after you then who can you trust:)
So you moved the goalposts to pretend that there has not been a decline since 2000? Shame on you! There is more to life than winning arguments by changing the topic.
Read the guys sig and follow the link. His mind does not dwell in reality and he's insulting everyone apart from the terrorists with the shit he's spewing.
No it's all a conspiracy - wordpress was set up to fail just like explosives were planted in that building that couldn't possibly have burned down when it was on fucking fire.
But I'm sure the devoted partisan will find some way to assign a city's bad aspects to whichever wing of politics they don't like
I'll take the extra step and blame an entire level of government. Concentrations of funding in tiny little local governments seem to be driving a feedback loop where some areas have everything, others not enough, so people and businesses move to the areas with greater services. Faced with a loss of revenue from people and businesses moving out the poor areas are forced to tax the utter shit out of whoever is left and try get rich quick gimmicks like casinos and monorails. When the road turns to dirt at the edge of the government boundary you know that things are fucked up to the point of uselessness.
Meanwhile the CIA directory was wide open to the press, or maybe she was wide open to him.
At that level if they spill secrets they are above the law - so much for Magna Carta and all the rest. Manning rots in jail for the same crime that Petraeus committed.
I'm not a lawyer but I do recognise it's the pricks that send in the lawyers for this sort of thing that are the real garbage. Do you think a lawyer would do this on their own without somebody giving them money and a task to do?

Yes but I suggest looking at industrial structures such as cooling towers or petrochemical plant as a comparison instead of office buildings.
Oooh the rubbery "productivity" number instead of a measurable metric - fuck off loser.

It's more about connections. He was born with those political connections, kept his daddies connections and added a lot more.

Insane workaround - ask the phone company for timestamps of messages. Get a warrant if you have to.

More to the point, to show you are paying attention, who doesn't :)
What ULA and a couple of the others are doing is enough to make my point isn't it?
Yes. Hence "and all the rest".

Prenda Law was shut down in 2013. In that case at least the system works.

Most of those use rocket motors that are purchased from Russia.
Ten percent of a lot that was unsustainable unless the oil price stayed high.
How does it compare to the Joint Strike Fighter?
Yes I know that isn't funny at all - it's a tragedy because we are paying for the thing.

The manufacturing sector crashed, so there used to be a lot more of that sort of job instead of a few hours a week as a greeter at Walmart.
