  1. You really aren't giving yourself enough credit. You are a morally superior smug pompous asshole. Which is pretty amazing given your name is fucking Brad, Brad
  2. operations warp speed was a massive success that got us multiple approved vaccines within 12 months. Truly impressive. The fucking distribution is a clusterfuckabortion of gargantuan proportions.
  3. Called a few places around Dallas listed on the DHS website and they all responded the same way which was....
  4. Judging by the mcrib and the charlie strong esque finger length, this dude has got that BDE
  5. I don't understand the concern of this tweet. He's now the defacto starter. Why would he leave now?
  6. Personal conduct, letting the eyes thing spin out of control, recruiting, maryland, maryland, tcu, ou, iowa fucking state, etc. Yes, the roster is talented and we looked good last night. But homie has got to go.
  7. yep, Amy just a hater. But someone on twitter had the whole thing teed up and ready to out ol' Hilaria. I think my favorite part about this stupid ass story is Alec Baldwin having to defend that trollop
  8. Which is why it is so egregious. This shit is hilarious. People are fucking crazy
  9. The reputation of this site? Are you fucking kidding me?

  15. Explains how it works.
  16. I just love square toe dropping that rap game knowledge. Very Texan of you and I approve. And as a Dallas guy, Houston just fuckin smokes us in the rap game. UGK alone would be enough but Fat Pat, Slim thug, Lil' Flip, Travis Scott, Paul Wall, and of course, DJ Screw put Houston up against any city in the country.
  17. Thanks. Can’t read it though
  18. Post the fucking gotdamned fucking article please
  19. Brian Kelly you say? What does a mad Brian Kelly look like in a September day game in Austin?
  20. exactly. And on page 4/500 something there is a nice video of our future first lady of Longhorn football pointing out the NFL was a hard 'no'.
  21. I don't have a good answer on how to fix it or if it even can be fixed. Your first 3 ideas can temporarily address the widening but I don't believe it would ultimately work. Education is obviously one way that sets up a better long term potential for an individual's earning power however that is based on historical precedent. Once a college degree becomes ubiquitous, its value and the holders earning power diminishes. Inflation, traditionally measured via CPI, uses a concept called substitution which is explained below "What is substitution and substitution bias? And does the C-CPI-U eliminate it? Traditionally, the CPI was considered an upper bound on a cost-of-living index in that the CPI did not reflect the changes in consumption patterns that consumers make in response to changes in relative prices. Since January 1999, a geometric mean formula has been used to calculate most basic indexes within the CPI; this formula allows for a modest amount of substitution within item categories as relative price changes. The geometric mean formula, though, does not account for consumer substitution taking place between CPI item categories. For example, pork and beef are two separate CPI item categories. If the price of pork increases while the price of beef does not, consumers might shift away from pork to beef. The C-CPI-U is designed to account for this type of consumer substitution between CPI item categories. In this example, the C-CPI-U would rise, but not by as much as an index that was based on fixed purchase patterns. With the geometric mean formula in place to account for consumer substitution within item categories, and the C-CPI-U designed to account for consumer substitution between item categories, any remaining substitution bias would be quite small." The government uses cost of living adjustments based on CPI to increase social security payments annually. It is beneficial for the government to undercount inflation because otherwise SS would be in even worse shape than it is currently.
  22. Paycheck to Paycheck Article is good but specifically this image. The wealth gap is growing because everything costs a lot more relative to how fast incomes are rising. This is driven by the Federal Reserve's policies combined with how we actually measure inflation. People are literally getting poorer. The gap is growing and jumping across that gap is becoming more difficult. In general, people don't understand how the below graph happens and what its effect is but they know something isn't right. That's how Trump got elected and, had Jim Clyburn not endorsed Biden, how Bernie would've gotten elected. Both are attempting to assign blame to the below issue to various 'others' (Trump blames immigrants and China, Bernie attacked the wealthy). Combine that along with the infotainment/social media aspect constantly shoving extreme wealth in people's faces, envy eventually turns to anger. There is zero easy way out at this point.
