By DY_nasty Go To PostA college degree is nice but debt is an active consistent snowball effect. You don't stop the bleeding with more college grads that are going to be just as screwed in the job market.My contention is that there are a number of alternatives to reduce the problems of the wage/debt gap than a simple one time debt forgiveness plan (and probably more effective). Free college is a way to prevent student debt becoming a problem ever again
By HasphatsAnts Go To Postthe plot from Homefront is coming true
Trump's so good at unintentionally playing good cop bad cop it's remarkable.
The plot from Olympus Has Fallen had me shook as well.
They was talking about being able to beat the best conceivable time needed to storm the White House's defenses, and how they did so by a mile.
I still be watching them Antoine Fuqua movies though. Training Day the GOAT.

Lmao they're so heated that South Korea dares to do what's in their best interest.
If you don't want SK running appeasement for NK, reaffirm your commitments.

so progressive
#thankyou
That is some creative ass racism right there. They should of just not tweeted anything and not even do it.

By DY_nasty Go To Postits not racism. its how skin deep liberals feel good about themselves :DHard to imagine the Boston PD being all that liberal imo
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostHard to imagine the Boston PD being all that liberal imoIsn't that the same BPD that was accused of overt racism by the feds?
uniforms in general are inherently more centrist than anything imo
they get used to do some pretty heavy handed shit here and there, but any organization that can have the sort of effect is as well so meh. no point singling cops out just because they have guns - whereas other institutions/companies have the ability to make sure you're just as screwed but less violently.

What even is Boston's problem? Why are they always like this? I have coworkers who have PTSD about Boston.
Boston just hates minorities like everyone else, only difference is they aren’t willing to sacrifice their lives to spite minorities like a North Dakota or Oklahoma
BPD isn't nearly as bad as some of the other PD's on the East Coast. All in all we're the most liberal state in the Northeast, with Boston being the most liberal big city. You'll see white people in the burbs with BLM posters up in their yards.
DY is probably right - this is more goofy yuppie back-patting than it is overt racism. They apologized shortly after the tweet as well.

honestly i prefer the people burning crosses because at least they're honest and not confused regarding how much they actually care. that type doesn't usually ask you to say "thanks" after fucking you over with a smile either.
Entire Baltimore Metro system to close for a month for emergency repairs
Why am I always voting for this shit to get fixed? Clearly they never upgrade it.
Announced on a Sunday, like everyone isn't taking it to Hopkins, trying to get to Woodlawn, or drop their kids off somewhere so they can go work at either of the two spots. Glad that I don't need it this month.
gtfo. lmao. It's gonna be terrible.
Baltimore’s entire Metro SubwayLink system will remain closed for a month, the Maryland Transit Administration announced Sunday, after safety inspections showed sections of track needed emergency repairs that couldn’t wait until this summer.
Gov. Larry Hogan has set aside $2.2 million in emergency funding to run free coach buses for passengers along the subway’s route in addition to the normal MTA bus routes, the MTA said Sunday.

By EldritchTrapStar Go To PostEntire Baltimore Metro system to close for a month for emergency repairsIt's complete incompetence from whomever is in charge of overseeing this stuff. Everyone needs to go.
They installed those digital signs a few years ago to let you know when to expect the next train like New York's MTA and that lasted less than a year. Now if they're not turned completely off they just light up when the train is literally approaching. It's one line that's a tad longer than fifteen miles and they can't coordinate this shit to work properly. NYC has hundreds of active trains moving in all directions around the clock and they make it work. It's an embarrassment.

In a hypothetical where he replaces an impeached trump, I don’t think I agree he would be worse. I believe her too. He’s a fucking loon.
There was a video of some reporter losing her shit and asking Pence why he's always finding out about shit all late as a VP.
Pence wasn't even taking the bait though. Answered the question with so much tact and calm. Kellyanne Conway would've kirked out and bitched to Trump about how he's not tweeting enough about treasonous media.
But anyway, point is, with that much composure, Pence must be a nihilist, but he's playing house whitey for the Republican base, and he doesn't mind throwing gays under the bus to justify his ends, or he just genuinely hates gays with or without religion, but Jesus definitely didn't tell him to completely dismiss that reporter's nerd rage so craftily and adeptly.

Mike Pence did the same thing BPD did and honored Honest Abe for BHM in 2017... he didn't even delete the post lol
Also if Boston is the most liberal place in the NE God please bring blacks to the west coast

Isn’t this supposed to be the party of small government? Yeah let’s have to plan the logistics to send millions of people food, that just screams small government.
By RobNBanks Go To PostIsn’t this supposed to be the party of small government? Yeah let’s have to plan the logistics to send millions of people food, that just screams small government.It's to stop people from being able to buy whatever they want with EBT. They scream about people using food stamps to buy soda or steak all the time. Heaven forbid.
i never got why they care about what people get w/ the food stamps. unless the steak and sour patch kids are only supposed to be for us people w/ good paying jobs.
Soda is not for the poors, thank you.
My dad got laid off when I was a kid and you know what I sure as fuck appreciated? The part where my parents could still use the food stamps to get us a decent meal like some steak or salmon. Buy whatever the hell you want with your food stamps. It's your credits, I don't care.

Shouldn't there also be a government board to figure out why a business is losing money before it starts laying taxpayers off?
I would think that could start the process of governments buying out a business if they know they could manage it better, then redistributing shares in the company to the aforementioned taxpayers.
It's now capitalist socialism instead of socialist democracy.
I think Obamacare was about small businesses with 25 or more employees, right? That could also be the threshold for government buyouts.

By domino Go To Posti never got why they care about what people get w/ the food stamps. unless the steak and sour patch kids are only supposed to be for us people w/ good paying jobs.I think there could be an argument for maximizing nutritional value per dollar spent.
Sour patch kids aren't as efficient as, say, maybe a bagel or muffin, or what have you, hence rendering sour patch kids as a luxury expense.
I think there should be more soup kitchens around the country that people can bring their families to, and the communities therein can congregate and talk about how great the pasta and the tuna sandwiches are, and they don't have to worry about someone selling their food stamps for half the face value.
I've always argued that sugary items like soda and candy should be some of the highest taxed shit in the country, right after cigarettes and liquor. I bet you parents will start baking cookies and chocolate cakes at home, sharing with their neighbors in middle class utopias.
By Smoke Dogg Go To PostI think there could be an argument for maximizing nutritional value per dollar spent.Whatever "maximum nutritional value" they come up with will be entirely arbitrary. Let people buy whatever they want with EBTs, it's their tax dollars going into it too. Additionally, people are incredibly naive to think most people fighting to survive are out indulging in vices like cigarettes and liquor.

Agree on the tax part.
I used to work in a grocery store... truly a shitty weekend job... but I learned something.
I learned that a lot of these people with EBTs are out here driving Escalades.
"Fighting to survive" ... quite a few of them just redirected their own personal wealth, what they didn't have to spend on food.
But anyway, I'm not trying to argue. I'm not trying to take the discussion into the direction of tangents. All I'm saying is there are definitely some peeps who deserve the food stamps more than others, because the system is definitely abused, I've seen it myself.

If someone wants to buy sour patch and Mountain Dew with their food stamps go ahead
But let’s be real, this isn’t about nutritional values. Like this administration gives a fuck about anyone’s health
