You happen to have a source for that? I have heard that before but no one has been able to back it up.

Yes there is. Plenty. For PACs where most of the money was spent: Left: 44.8 Right: 23.2 https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/recipients?id=D000073694&cy...

Yes. I linked to the page with donations at the bottom. The most money was spent giving to PACs. If you download the PAC list and sum it up it totals: Left: 44.8 Right: 23.2 So yes millions was given to both parties, but one party received

Ah that makes complete sense. I never thought of it that way before but your logic follows. Musk sees what is going on and knows he can take advantage of it. Thank you for explaining.

by keneda7 4y ago
Could you please elaborate a little more? Are you saying because of the flood of workers into the market Musk is able to act this way?

I did not know this. Very interesting thank you. So is there some group responsible for officially determining if something is a Ponzi scheme or not? Perhaps in court?

So on the PACS table there is a button that says download CSV. Click that to download the list and then open it in excel (or sheets or whatever) and then sort by the view column. You then can use =sum() and add up to donations to each dif

Ya I didn't bother replying to them. I haven't tracked the PAC donations but I would be utterly shocked if only non-trump supporting republicans benefitted from the 23m. I would wager many trump supporting republicans got lots o

Not who you quoted but roughly half the money did not go to Republicans. This article is either misleading or just wrong. The article links to opensecrets to support its claim. In that opensecrets link look under the PACs section (its th

A lot of what you are saying is theoretical but doesn't hold up in the actual work place (at least in the US). 1. In the US at least we know a majority of the workers are hourly. ( https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnc

I don't even know where to begin with this comment? So you have no problem being paid for only half the time right? Or are you saying you deserve to steal from the company you work for?

Cannot speak to all of them but I know a couple work on sides personal projects the rest of their time. Doesn't matter if they are in the office or at home. No one is asking them to write code 40 hours a week. That is not realistic i

You are basically describing every single takeover. When a company changes ownership it is unusual if there isn't a drastic shake up of things including working conditions. I don't understand why this one is a such a big deal ot

I have several college friends (developers) that ended up at twitter. Some of them loved it, some of them hated it, one universal thing I pretty much heard from all of them is that they typically did actual work 15-20 hours week. Now overa

I am generally curious what your position is here? You seem to be arguing the NYT article is not a fluff piece but then with this comment you admit its not investigative journalism but rather a fluff piece? I don't understand.

I think I see your point. I agree that neither bias is good. The crowd sourced fact checks I am not so sure about yet. I think it could still go either way.

Do you happen to have a source for that? I've seen numbers similar a couple times but never had a source on it.

I think I see what your saying but I disagree. Before Musk twitter was heavily pushing left wing talking points. They would ban right wing people for threats yet let left wing people make death threats all day long. There so called arbit

I'm confused how this was a right wing talking point? In this case it is an actual fact. Are you suggesting we ignore facts if they make the left look bad? I also want to point out the white house straight up lied and said biden was
