You had to go back over two hundred years, and then it was to the original American Patriots who did not physically harm anybody with the tea party stunt
Unless you happened to be a small businessman who owned a store that, you know, sold tea. Then, you were most certainly physically harmed, because it meant your family didn't eat.
Oh, and I presume you are willing to admit you have effectively announced that the founders of this nation were right-wing/conservative rather than left-wing/liberal.
No, I'm pointing out that groups like Black Lives Matter and other left-wing groups use the same techniques as the Founding Fathers. Civil disobedience is civil disobedience. And the tree of liberty has to be watered by tyrants and all that, amirite?
I see what you're saying. Netflix still leads all streaming services in retention, though. But yes, unexpected churn was the issue. The year over year growth in total membership number still is on the same slope that it's been on for years. Since the stock price is now matching it's 30-day price low, after rising (and falling $14), it's still a screaming buy. IMHO.
Full disclosure: I don't own any Netflix stock, but this does look like a time to dip the toe. Maybe put on an option spread for insurance.
You're dead wrong. It's right there in the summary: "Gross additions were on target, but churn ticked up slightly and unexpectedly."
How does that contradict anything I've said?
Netflix' total number of subscribers is up. They're growing faster than any other streaming service and retaining a bigger percentage of members. Despite churn.
All you need is a few open carry folks who really want to show they're in charge, some protesters who want to call their bluff, and things escalating into violence.
I'm not advocating for violence in Cleveland, but if things really escalate, it could tie up a lot of loose ends for the rest of us.
The vast majority of people with 401k plans will not have nearly enough money to retire by age 70. The entire 401k law has been nothing but another way to siphon working and middle class wealth to rich people.
Because the country was socialist back when things were so great? Oh wait, no, it wasn't.
Yes, it was more socialist then than it was today. The decades with the greatest, widest prosperity were the decades with strongest unions and the New Deal.
I'm not voting for Trump, but I doubt it would be any better with Clinton.
Economies do better with Democratic presidents, Senate and Republican House of Representatives. They do second best with a Democratic president, House and Senate. Third best with a Democratic president and Republican congress. Fourth best with a Republican president and a Democratic congress and worst with a Republican president and Republican congress.
You know what they say about people who refuse to learn from history, right?
In the 1970's a kid straight out of high school could get a job, get married, buy a 3 bed house + garage + car in the suburbs and raise 2.6 children on one paycheck.
And have a pension when he retired.
People who don't realize just how fucked things are have their heads in the sand. People who think Donald Trump is going to fix it have their heads up their asses.
But what really matters is standard of living. Sure, they might make less money, but in the 1980s a cell phone cost thousands and barely worked, compared to what you can get for a few hundred bucks and $30 a month.
No offense, friend, but that is the stupidest goddamn thing I've seen on the Internet in the past half-hour. Lazy thinking like that is how the government gets away with reporting low inflation numbers. The really big ticket items, housing, education, cars, health care have gone up by a factor of ten since the 1980s.
At the same time, the actual starting wages in a Ford plant today is less than it was in 1980.
But at least you'll be able to play Pokemon Go when you're in the bread lines.
An iPad, an iPhone, they are computers. They are mobile computers. Desktop: Mac Mini w/ 2 27 inch thunderbolt displays, Apple TV for collaboration in my office as well. For my laptop, I use a 2012 rMBP with 16GB ram, 768GB disks. Served me for 4 years and it's still going strong. I use Safari for personal browsing since it integrates with my key chain, and chrome for developing.
Slashdot Mirror
She's just hired Melania Trump to be her speech writer.
It lists Trump voters.
That was the point I was trying to make. Radical is radical. Reactionary is reactionary.

That's a rate of growth, remember. Oh, and my mistake. That was a quarterly number.

Growth is growth. And Netflix has 1.54million more subscribers than it did a year ago.
Let's see, at $10/month, that means...um...carry the 1...trillions of dollars. Or something.
Don't worry about Netflix. Compared to the other video streaming services, they're bigger, more profitable and growing faster.
You can hardly blame someone for not wanting to be in that group. The last time there were that many white people in one place, crosses got burned.
Although, I'm sure many of the journalists will regret not being there to see Chachi's big speech.

Also, Melanomia is scheduled to speak tonight. You never know, she might just revert to type and show her pootenanny.
Netflix is at $85 after this big after-hours drop. On June 27, they were...$85.
Technical traders (the ones who use charts to predict, no matter the news) will buy like crazy tomorrow.
This story is not about people leaving. It's about them not getting as many NEW customers as they thought.
Of all the streaming services, Netflix has the highest member retention.

My point is that the Keystone XL pipeline's purpose is to carry oil to the gulf coast for export.
