  1. You do realize that you are making my point for me. Jobs are poofed in and out of existence not because they are or aren't needed. They do it at the whims of investor sentiment. If a company needs to show investment in an area they just poof jobs into existence and fill them with whoever and don't even really check on results. The investors like that company xyz is investing in the thing they think is hype or growth etc. Its all horseshit.
  2. If you want to pontificate a basis for policy on equal rights without referencing candidates or party platforms that would be in the spirit of this thread. I think you can use real, cited examples of supporting information for the basis of your policy, but not portions of either platform. E.G. information about abortion rates in states with different laws impacting the topic or examples of positive and negative stories from 1st party citation.
  3. They actually do, this is why you are wrong. In todays America you can lie cook your books and poof debt funding into existence or scam investors with no recourse. Jobs are literally poofed into existence all the time, most of them pay really well and have no real impact because corporations have unfathomably large budgets.
  4. So to get this thread back on track let's remove all the single issue mainstream issues from discussion? Do we just remove Republican and Democrat only policies and put forward ideas that are original for problems facing America not based in either platform? Right now the reason this devolves into this type of thread is because everyone is starting from a position of who got elected on what platform. What if this was more of a thread of no platform but one that surly is putting forward? I can moderate to that. I can't moderate to the OPs idea.
  5. White women did this to themselves.
  6. Imagine how stupid it is to quit on a top 5 team. Lmao.
  7. Yeah donuts tacos and breakfast sandwiches.
  8. What you are missing the benevolence the capable have shown by being team players.
  9. Ah good ole potatofication.
  10. It doesn't bother anyone. The mechanics of that operation are infeasible and the standard for good enough is not a single deportation that is not one of these illegals with no criminal history. The problem with people like you is you can't see the forest from the trees. No one thinks illegal immigration or immigrants are a net positive or shouldn't actively be policed better. Especially shitty people who pour in here and are committing crimes violent or not. The issue is to do it right it's a monumental task and one that is certainly going to take years to implement correctly, not because of bureaucracy, but because it is genuinely incredibly difficult to build a system and mechanism to allow for effective identification, confirmation, processing and eventual transport of these people. Doing any of it haphazardly because you want all the bad ones gone but some good ones get got is completely an unacceptable result not because I'm some soyboy liberal cuck, but because there are certain unalienable rights people have. What happens when you deport a legal immigrant who has committed no crimes? You erode the faith in the entire immigration system. America becomes a country that cannot be trusted at its word or policy. What happens when you deport a natural born citizen who has committed no crimes to a country they have no ties to except potentially their heritage? You erode the entire foundation of what it means to be an American. Citizenship becomes a circumstance of convenience and a privilege, not a fundamental birth right and an unalienable right as set forth in the Constitution of the United States.
  11. I'm not trying to be a dick, but this is just nonsense dooming. You can't project what will happen or that elections will become less free and fair etc. Those are things you can be on high alert for but just saying it like it's gonna happen is not productive and it's really a figment of your imagination at this point. @G650 is putting it all out there the way I see immediate changes and immediate action. Everything will very quickly become dog eat dog. Accountability will go to zero and people who "do whatever it takes" will be rewarded vs those who are trying to do things the right way. American innovation is on its death bed and this could be the beginning of the death rattle. A society so consumed by more more more me me me that it eats itself and dies. The way you go about it is up to you, but everyone is about to see the character of their neighbors, friends, family, and co workers on full display in short order. Many people are too weak to have a high moral standard and continue doing things rhe right way. The vast majority of Americans have already sold their soul, now it's just up to the rest to see how long they can go before giving up. In corporate America there has been vast swaths of what I like to call "potatofication" since covid and everyone went back to work. It starts with one or two people who you can't fucking believe do nothing at all and get away with still having a paycheck and sometimes even getting promotions. Then it turns into 4-5 people and corporate profits are still good because whatever so no one is doing Jack shit or they are doing it at the bare minimum required. Then the apathy for the product creeps in, no one even gives a shit what the company does anymore they are just there to do their job and check out. Then it turns into entire departments of 10s-100s of people who just check the fuck out and add little to no value and all the work that is produced is actual garbage tier not even passable for anything. Then customer relationships erode to entirely transactional requirements specifications and price conversations because working together isn't required by anyone and does no good for the corporate overlords. Its no ones job to care about the product anymore. Its infectious and its rotten to the core. Then the final piece is cuts, deep ridiculous cuts removing anyone but the favorites who have submitted to potatofication. You are rewarded by keeping your job which you do nothing in and the people actually trying to get shit done are deemed problems and must go. The line must go up and to the right. As long as this happens you get to stay. The problem is the line can't always go up and to the right. When it doesn't there's going to be no consequences theres just going to be a good old fashioned shutdown/wind up and a final payout for the corporate vampires at the top.
  12. If it wasn't obvious helles is taking time off.
  13. God damnit everyone feels some sort of way but keep it fucking civil. There's an obvious line, if you cross it I'll help you by giving you a day off.
  14. I'm neither of those things. We all didn't know shit about fuck. Sign up top should have told you. I agree that people that are having the incredulous reaction and forecasting certain doom are a beating, those are outliers. Most people are critical thinkers who are bummed that the American populace chose fear, hate and greed. I don't think that's something to be proud of. I want it to work because I want America to get better than it already is.
  15. Serious question, what if DJT does a good job? Are any of you going to be capable of not doomcasting every fucking thing he does and automatically making it something negative? I am still hoping for less bad than before. Pre-covid he was finally shutting the fuck up and getting off of social media and things weren't perfect but they werent exactly headed towards disaster. He was especially bad on COVID, but tbh I think almost anyone would have been bad, just not as bad as him because he's an idiot.
  16. Trump will end all wars.
  17. No I don't. Which is why I told you why it's off limits
  18. That's not emotional. I've always drawn the line in the sand of goofing off or poking fun or alluding to me taking money from the players.
  19. One thing I don't accept as a joke is accusations of taking the NIL money and using it for myself or any personal gain. I'm happy to show you all the books and the contracts and everything I have done above and beyond with regard to NIL. I heavily subsidize the program. It costs me more than season tickets for a BMD per year personally. Stop fucking around with me on this topic it's off limits and it's not funny
  20. I need some of that trillion dollar stimulus good good.
  21. Idk if I was clear. I don't care one way or another if people cancel burnt ends. No one is canceling their treefiddy stuff. Shocker.
  22. Trump said if someone got deported on accident everyone would act like it's the worst thing in the world but he doesn't give a shit. Do you know how insane it is to deport legal citizens of a country? I have no confidence that this isn't going to be extremely messy because there's not really a way for it not to be.
  23. Also I've had a bunch of people cancel burnt ends stuff. Do you guys not understand that doesn't cost me anything? It costs the players. I was never keeping any of that money. People are so emotional and stupid they can't even do basic thinking
