As they should. Police have shown their hand time and time again. Peaceful marchers and protesters get beaten, sprayed, and generally abused without consequence. Armed protesters, even those who go full on violent, are left alone and watched from a distance.
You mean the old clown who straight up quoted his favorite fiction book and referred to Christianity multiple times in his opinion is a Christian fundamentalist?! Who could have imagined this!!
Naw, basically saying that the employment landscape has changed significantly since 2020 and the management class reports being overwhelmed and lacking tools/knowledge/experience to properly manage and engage employees in the new landscape, while the employees report more passive disengagement and want a company to actually invest in them as a person and treat them as a human instead of treating them like naked capital investment.
Edit: I forgot, there was that one brazenly monocle’d paragraph advocating for harder boot licking for workers, but it is cnbc so what do you expect
How is this burdensome on businesses? Wouldn’t it be as simple as filing the same forms they filed with the secretary of state to register the businesses in the first place? (at least for the small businesses they’re all feigning concern for)
You throw enough shit at the wall, some of it’s about to stick. The rumors of this were around long before QAnon nuts came on the scene, same as the #metoo accusations
Let’s try it this way. Based on your comment, I understand your argument structure to be like this (correct me if I’m wrong):
Election is coming up > democrats are running in the election > as part of the election strategy democrats are pushing a “talking point” about trump campaign dangling pardons and legal defense funding for his insurrection conspirators > trump had the chance to pardon them already but chose not to, so therefore he’s lying to them > democratic party promises they broke re: abortion and environment when they had power are the same type of lie and therefore relevant to the discussion about trump campaign dangling pardons and legal defense funding for his insurrection conspirators in the current campaign.
Surely you can see how you’ve had to construct an entirely different argument structure around the actual subject of discussion (trump campaign dangling pardons and legal defense funding for his insurrection conspirators) to try and build relevance? But even then it doesnt actually work logically.
Your original response was essentially “but what about Obummer?!” That’s whataboutism. It’s a logical fallacy.
Wonderfully written look into the program. The buddy pairing system along with the guaranteed payments was brilliant. Often there is a desire by the public and politicians to just throw money at the problem, but the root of addiction and the cycle of suffering in many cases (though obv not all) is often tied deeply to lack of human connection and support.
The one thing that stood out and absolutely disgusted me was the bit about IRS garnishing Todd’s meager $500 payments for back taxes. Are you telling me that we have the resources to garnish the payments of a homeless 64 year old man but not chase down billionaire fraud and tax dodging? What a fucking disgrace
