I'm wondering if Google and others can claim that what's put out by outlets like Fox news are not actually news but entertainment and the laws don't apply to that. They use that argument constantly in court to wiggle out of l

One of the major issues in California is that damn near every massive project is won by Tutor Perenni who always goes way over budget and way over schedule and ends with the final product falling apart and needing repair as soon as it'

I live in SF and unfortunately, I have to agree. It's a weird city, especially when you compare it internationally. There are some amazing restaurants, but they're difficult to find and I think that probably adds to the appeal of

Antifa doesn't even exist as an organization and yet it was classified as a terrorist organization. I know many people who live in Portland with families and exactly zero of them had any concern about the protesters, fwiw.

If we tax the rich more we'll be owned by China? That feels a bit like an insincere argument. Anyone wanting to buy large sums of Amazon stock could do so right now. Hoarding large sums of money isn't really beneficial to society

It's looking like there might be a trial in the senate so we'll see if the "figurative language" argument holds up. Trump telling the rioters "I love you" after they stormed the capitol doesn't look too go

I know more than a few people who received large PPP loans (>$6M) and they had no legitimate need for them. They just filled out the applications and got the money just because they could. Knowing that, I'm sure there are much more

I'm looking into that right now again. It's a pretty tedious process where the Governor has to personally approve the request. Right now there is a Republican governor in that state so they're less likely to approve it. Since
