Serious business I worked with a middle eastern guy with the last name Patel. Not sure if he was messing with me but he said Patel is as common where he comes from as Smith is here.
So us smart@$$es knick named him "Osama bin Smith" and he enjoyed it so much he asked HR if he gave that as his name tag sewn on his uniform. Unfortunately HR did not approve.

I am pretty sure it is. Maybe more so.

It's public assistance, but not exactly redistribution. This was about crisis management, not achieving greater social equality.

If it isnt given to everyone equally it is wealth redistribution. Public assistance is wealth redistribution by definition.

Currently, I'm a furloughed financial services rep at First Horizon with an ex-wife and two kids.

OK. I had confused with another poster. Ruined my joke dude.

But, that does help explain your vast knowledge of finance related responses. I make a monthly First Horizon contribution that probably doesn't help you much. I have had far too many layoff experiences. Management is not immune in manufacturing. Unlike government, when factory workers go, mangers are reapportioned according to covered overhead. But, I'm on a solid 3 year run now, so fingers crossed. My ex cost me nothing. she even paid the $500 lawyer fee and I somehow got them to make changes to things I didn't agree with without spending a dime and we all signed, so I just showed up to divorce court solo. (No kids at the time).

We are tight (always are) but making it since our positions have not been affected by this. We will probably clear some bills, but I've seriously considered telling her we're managing so why don't we invest this in an affordable market right now and turn it into a little something.

There were millions of more qualified candidates than Trump. Why was he encouraged to run, nominated, and elected?
Talk about lying to oneself.

I am pretty sure before it happened most of the people who voted for him never would have encouraged him to run.

And I dont think Trump was lying to himself. Whatever the odds he was right, and got elected. You can throw all the if, buts, candy, and nuts, out you want. But he did it.

The reasoning and purpose behind it matters... this isn't for the achievement of a greater social equality.

How is it not redistribution? Not everyone gets it and it's based on income level.

That's exactly what a beta would say.

I tried to indirectly inform him that one of the biggest indicators that one is a beta is by accusing others of being beta.
It's the sign of someone insecure in their masculinity or just really really stupid. (Obviously, it could be both)

She must've really wanted to get rid of you?
You and your ex have kids now?
I thank God everyday that I don't have kids with my ex. She would have squeezed every penny out of me.

We are just talking about semantics and it's not important. I really don't care what you call it.

Because you got yours and fawk errybody else.

The only thing my local Kroger seemed to be out of was A1 sauce. I asked if they had any in the back and they didn't. Even had a good bit of toilet paper.

Mine is out of Paul Newman's frozen pizza. My favorite frozen pizza.

That's dang funny. Surely, even Luther sees the funny in that !!

Talk about lying to oneself.

There were better, more qualified candidates than Obama as well. But President is chosen by election. The VP is picked for optics.

It must have took a serious amount of organization to pull this off.

So you just called DinkinFlicka a beta for calling out another for calling someone a beta. Fascinating.

 

[Weezer]

I'm just not sure how he types like that, but it certainly explains why it never makes sense.

 

[FLVOL_79]

I undoubtedly would find your rationale fascinating.
And then follow it up with your evidence that the Earth is flat.

you already know why I know you drink soy.

And flat earth..sad segue there. You can do better

He undoubtedly did it; to the shock and detriment of humanity.

I do, but not with my ex. I didn't want her to mother my kids then and I didn't hit it afterwards to get any kids. lol.

Seriously, she had another woman in our relationship she talked to in the mirror. Loooony. We were young, in love, and red flags went unnoticed on her mental tribulations. I worked 2nd shift at the time and that lent to her ability to step out while I was at work. She liked to start arguments so she could say things were bad. She babysat once for a job. I had to feed the baby for her, change diapers etc., even though I had only slept a couple hours after getting home. I woke up to it crying and her hovered over the crib yelling at it to shut up. I picked him up, walked him, fed him a bottle and he went lights out. just hungry. I called the parents and suggested my wife may not should be baby sitting their child. That was the day I knew I would never have kids with her. Don't know if she ever became a parent. And she ran around more than once in our brief marriage. I think I know what town she lives in, and heard she did get remarried. She did weird things after. girlfriends. boyfriends. moved back to my hometown cause it was time to come home and settle down. (She was from TN though). Ended up in West GA and never made it back to TN. Maybe she got it right and still married to same guy. I have a 17 year old son now with current wife. and a step-son now trying to have their own child.

Thousands converge on Lansing to protest Whitmer's stay home order

LANSING — Demonstrators drove thousands of vehicles — many draped with protest signs — to Michigan's state Capitol Wednesday, loudly protesting Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's stay-at-home order intended to fight the coronavirus pandemic.

Police watched as horns honked and commercial and private vehicles from around the state jammed Capitol Avenue and other streets surrounding Michigan's seat of government.

"Liberty once lost is lost forever," read a sign draped across a commercial van. "Security without liberty is called prison," read another, stretched across the Capitol's front lawn. "Recall Whitmer," a third sign said.

Organizers said they expected thousands of vehicles, and those projections appeared accurate.

Inmate Released Over Coronavirus Fears Murdered Someone After Release, Police Say

Florida law enforcement officials say that a man who had been arrested in March on drug charges, and subsequently released from prison due to fears over the coronavirus, committed a murder the day after he was released from prison.

“According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, deputies arrested 26-year-old Joseph Edward Williams for a homicide that happened in Tampa, Florida on March 20,” WBTV reported. “He is facing a second-degree murder charge along with resisting an officer with violence, felon in possession of a firearm, possession of heroin and possession of drug paraphernalia.”

Williams, who was arrested on March 13 on drug charges, was one of more than 100 inmates that were released from the Hillsborough County detention facilities on March 19 due to fear that the coronavirus could be spreading throughout the prison population.
