Everyone's going to be somewhat political. So no politicians is a good rule, but it still would be good to know the political affiliations of the people doing the districting.

Sure. I figure if we ever get to the point where there aren't two major parties, it can either be fixed then, or we're under one party autocratic rule and it won't matter anymore.

by s73ver 9y ago
So don't include them by name. Just say the two major parties. Doesn't matter, doesn't change a thing.

How do you get people to input the data in time for it to be useful?

Given the other comments on this issue, it's not so much that MTA hates innovation, but that those who would be "disruptors" don't actually understand the entirety of the problem.

Take the power to create districts away from the legislature. Give it to a non-partisan commission. 1/3 Democrats, 1/3 Republicans, and 1/3 other/no party. We did that in California, and almost none of the legislators we

And my personal opinion is that this kind of thing is exactly what G should be doing with their market position. No consumer, anywhere, in the history of ever, has wanted things to pop under their browser window stealthily. As such, G abusi

I disagree. Doing that legitimizes this president and their actions, which is something that plain should not be happening. Not to mention that it was clear from the start that Trump was never going to listen to them anyway. Just about ever

At the same time, it's also incredibly tiring to hear shitty behavior by companies excused by saying "shareholder value!" as if that excuses all of it. The people running those companies are still adults, who are still fully

"There's no arbitrary obligation for a company to pay a "liveable wage", whatever that is." And I disagree. I believe there is. At the very least, I believe that a company should not be relying on labor subsidized b

Isn't that how just about everything is sold? My box of Cheerios isn't auctioned off; they picked a price. They had several factors that went into picking that price, just like those that set up the IPOs have.

I'm saying that if someone is working full-time for a company, and they still require welfare, then that company is at fault.
193.
by s73ver 9y ago
No. The government is still having to provide welfare because the company is shirking it's responsibilities. I'm sorry, but I will not accept the argument that it is ok for a company to have their employees on welfare. They are a

by s73ver 9y ago
No, I disagree. The company is getting away with paying less because of welfare. And I reject the false choice you presented. The company should be paying a living wage, plain and simple. If they can't, then they go out of business. On

Not many. And in the US, if you choose not to take the subsidy on your plan, you don't get a lower price. You can switch carriers, but a lot of those discount carriers suck. So if you're going to be charged for the subsidy anyway,

Not everyone reliably gets to have the choice on children, especially with red states doing everything they can do deny access to safe abortions.

by s73ver 9y ago
Why on earth should I be subsidizing that company, though? I agree that making sure that person, and people like them, should have the support needed to make sure that both them and their child are fed and housed and generally taken care of

Or a lot of us don't like having to subsidize your lifestyle, and are tired of the excuses that are entirely the product of your choice of lifestyle. At some point, this person is going to have to realize they cannot keep doing what th

I think they did. If the point was that easy to miss, then the author needs to rethink their point.

Recent iPhones are cheap. You get them with the contract. And for most carriers, choosing not to get the subsidized phone doesn't affect the monthly cost of service. You'll need a citation for the 85% of vehicles are newish SUVs

If that kind of thing is routinely happening in your office, it was probably happening without Slack as well. And that company probably has some bigger issues to address.

How is your extremely biased, partisan attack relevant to the point that Hobby Lobby illegally bought these relics, which quite likely helped fund ISIS?
205.
by s73ver 9y ago
Maybe those people need to be made aware that Hobby Lobby did this. And that it could have contributed to the rise of ISIS.

No. I do attribute this to malice. Or at least to not giving a shit about the law. They knew this wasn't on the up and up. And given that this is the same company that fought for exemptions from the ACA on religious grounds. If they wa

Tie it into your company's project planning software. Instead of doing this, what it does is anytime someone tries to add something, saying "This should be easy, right?", it adds a month and a half to the gantt chart.

Right, but I'm also guessing that they have an arrangement with the local waste disposal company to have it emptied more often.

Hire the agency to provide a team. Request that the team work onsite. After a while, offer people to jump ship to your company. If there is a clause in the contract preventing poaching, consider that financial penalty a commission. Happened

Yeah, but when the team moves on from this new position, now that's the problem of the company that hired the team.
