I can't read the whole article, but does it (or DOL documents) include details like amount of experience and job function? I've heard that much (not all) of the aggregate gap (i.e., on the national level) goes away after controlli

I love the clean, simple format but context is unclear -- who's it targeted to?

Interesting, I didn't know that. I tend to follow varied media accounts though, so it's tough to tell from my media consumption where I'm likely to stand politically.

Interesting. I have the opposite experience. /r/the_donald, which I believe was a significant factor in Trump's victory, and which is still a hotbed of activity for Trump supporters, is overtly pro-gay and pro-marijuana. In t

I perceive this to be because of unfair characterizations by opposing media. Example: do all conservatives think climate change is a hoax? Maybe some uncritical, uneducated ones do believe this based on hearsay and because it's '

You're right. I'm not a die-hard laissez-faire guy who says markets are godly and should never be manipulated. But...government isn't usually that logical. They already tried a tax and it didn't work.

Has anyone analysed the value of these vacant homes? Something tells me they're not cheap. They're bought to speculate/invest, after all, right? So is this trend really hurting those who the government is claiming to protect?

I don't understand the issue. If you don't like sites from a particular publisher, don't visit them. HN lists the root domain right next to the link.

Then maybe it's our job to stand as a nation against their hate and show them we won't tolerate it. Forget The Man and remember yourself.
