That's also the people who get paid when you pee in a cup.

I don't give them any business. So they didn't hack me.

The Madison, New Jersey-based company says “an unauthorized third party” on Nov. 26 gained access to customer information including names, dates of birth, lab results and in some instances, telephone numbers. The stolen data did not include Social Security numbers, credit card accounts, insurance details or any other financial information.

So now they know what's in my urine. LOL.

PUTIN!!!!!

Wants to know how many warehouse workers who had to pee in a cup to qualify for a $9/hr job smoked the Whacky Tobaccy.

Fascist regimes have charismatic dictators with hyper-masculine personality cults. These regimes generally evince a hyper-nationalist ethos, a cult of violence, mass mobilization of youth, high levels of repression, powerful propaganda machines and imperialist projects. Fascist regimes are hugely popular—usually because the charismatic leader appeals to broad sectors of the population.

Limp wristed Techno-Bankster globalist regimes are dominated by Matriarchs who love money and war. Like Pelosi, Boxer, Feinstein, Hillary, Powers, etc.

Salon actually uses child labor to make up stories under duress.

• Few years ago , the slogan for Republicans was “They hate us for our freedom” and lets spread freedom even if takes war (remember Iraq) . Now the same republican candidate is the source of inspiration for China and Russia who are telling their citizens “Look if we have election, we could elect a Trumpisque candidate. Therefore we are better off with a stable communist party”

Now, why do you think that might possibly be?

Is it because the people who voted Republican were the ones whose kids (or themselves) went to these wars?

It sure ain't West Coast Silly Con Valley Techies or East Egg Banksters sending their offspring to the MENA to fight in the infantry.

Maybe the invade-invite/waste-n-welcome idea of bombing the shit out of people with no clear endgame, then having them move in next door with the government's assistance, isn't the best idea.

Maybe they saw the disconnect between the GOPe immigration talk and their actual votes on immigration issues.

Don't forget the media repeated the lie that not only did Russia hack various Democratic emails, but at least in Podesta's case they claimed they were completely fabricated.

Oh, and just like the CIA briefing bullshit, they never showed any evidence this was the case.

My lord. You're now just completely lying. What happened to you Thunder? You used to be a sane voice on pat.net.

Everyone agrees the hack was Russian. The only controversy is whether Russians did it to help Trump or just mess with the US in general.

And how did you come to narrow down the controversy to just those two options?

Why Amazon would need any incentive not to pay a state sales tax is a mystery: They'd pay it if Amazon moved to Mexico or Germany or Canada.

No they wouldn't. The only businesses that have to collect state sales tax (paid by customers) are businesses that have a presence in the state. Mail order or internet businesses without an operations base in the state do not have to collect tax for sales in that state. I'm guessing that Amazon said that they would only build a warehouse in Utah if they got a break on customer's sales taxes. Pretty much every company gets a break on taxes when negotiating with states to decide where to build a new facility.

Ironman says

Wait, weren't you whining and bitching about the tax credit Trump was giving to Carrier in Indy???

Try to keep up. This is the exact point I made way back in post 54.

YesYNot says

Why are you against a sweetheart deal here, but all for Trump's Carrier sweetheart deal where the company gets to avoid paying the standard tax?

I don't like the race to the bottom. It's happening, because localities are desperate for business, so they give away too much to get a few jobs. Carrier was just more of the same deal. I expect it won't last though, as it was a political stunt, and the threat of losing unrelated business with the US gov was a driver. Once the political spotlight is gone, they will move the plant. But that's another story.

How do you know what is too much? Sounds like you are against anything Trump does, only for political reasons.
Put America First.

It's a classic prisoners dilemma. If all states refused to give such deals, they would be better off. Once they all start competing, they get less overall despite getting more on a particular deal.

Strategist says

How do you know what is too much?

When I did the math, it was something like $1500 or$2000 per job iirc. Sounds like a lot to me.

Show me the math.

Look, if i can buy some cheap china crap I don't even need for a couple sheckles less, all is well. Fuck those factory workers, they need to get their affairs in order, get a gig pushing paper and crunching numbers, pack up from Shitsville, FlyOver Country. Get with the program. "Free Trade" is great, so long as i can be programmed to think it benefits me, fuck all if it displaces any fellow countrymen

Bernie absolutely would have won the election, with even a half fair shake.

Just out of curiosity, how young are you ?

As I said, but I know you can't get this:

the right wing media doesn't even bother arguing against socialism anymore. In fact they like Bernie for his ability to split the democratic party. They knew all along that Hillary was who they were up against.

Socialism is so far from winning (and was this cycle) that it's not even on the right wing's list of top 3 things to worry about. To you that means it (socialism) and he (Bernie) could win. It will win eventually, and right before then you will find out what the plutocrats do when socialism is close to winning (unlike Bernie was).

Older America leaving matters a lot if they don't have a work force consumption and working to take it's place

Hence why I am not worried about America demographics or robots taking all the jobs

Well, the question remains who of all those slow growth nations we trade with will buy our stuff.

i am an immigrant and i think the U.S is still a great place to live.

Putin’s Communist government (extreme left)

Why do you claim that Putin's government is Communist? Putin's party is the United Russia party, the ruling party in Russia which holds a majority of seats in the Duma.

"Although the United Russia Party's popularity has declined from its peak of 64.4% in the 2007 Duma elections to 49.32% in the 2011 elections, United Russia remains the most popular party in the country, ahead of the second-placed Communist Party at 19.19%."

Putin is an authoritarian and nationalist.

good news is price of gas is also rising as oil recovers.

Socialism is so far from winning

What does that have to do with Bernie? He ran on a platform to replace the heinously inefficient Lemon Socialism that we suffer through currently, with Democratic Socialism.

Pretty much all his planks are wildly popular, just like he is. A Dem jew one man wrecking crew from deep red Vermont, with his 85% favorable rating while being a sitting Senator in a Senate with an 11% approval rating.

The enthusiasm for Bernie was off the charts, and with good reason. He would have molly wopped Trump

"United Russia
The party of Vladimir Putin and Dmitry Medvedev. This conservative and nationalist party, founded in 2001, is the largest in Russia with more than 2 million members. It holds an overwhelming majority of seats in both the Duma and regional parliaments, as well as committee chairmanships and posts on the Duma's steering committee. It claims to hold the centrist mantle as its platform includes both free markets and redistribution of some wealth. The party of power is often seen as operating with a main goal of keeping its leaders in power.

http://worldnews.about.com/od/russia/tp/Political-Parties-In-Russia.htm

The party advocates political and socio-economic stability and the revival of Russia's status as a superpower. It describes itself as centrist and conservative, basing its ideology on traditional Russian values and the notion of Russia's unique identity.

I wipe my ass on your flag.

I shit on your SOCIALIST FLAG!
You want to enjoy all the benefits paid for by real men's taxes?
You are happy to enjoy the sweat of others? PATRIOT for SOCIALISM?
Did you build the highway system,electrical grid,water distribution systems,military,etc. by yourself
with the hundreds of trillions of dollars that you have made because you are a financial genius?
Did you answer "YES SIR" to bosses with your tail tucked between your legs when told what to do & waited to get a puny little check each pay period & "YES MAM" & " THANK YOU MAM" when handed your check and willingly accepted the confiscated dollars taken by your BELOVED SOCIALIST COUNTRY?
Dumbass Trump voters pay taxes. Trump & some of us don't pay taxes because we are "smart".
Real AMERICANS worked for themselves all their lives & NEVER answered to anyone because they are MEN & are FREE.
Are you paying cash for your healthcare regardless of cost or
"Oh! No! I can't! I want to socialize the cost to everyone else because I'm a FAILURE!"?
This country would be better off full of super radicalized Wahabi Muslims than one Rightwing/Rep/Con/Tea/Neo-Nazi/Socialist sucking on the govt. teat.
I'm going outside. I love the glow of your SOCIALIST FLAG burning at night.
Did your DNA test tell how much black slave blood you have? Damn! That's an insult to black slaves!
Were you molested at an early age? Did you sing "loud and proud" HARDER! DADDY! HARDER?

Good, I like that ad hominem.

"Ahhh...
So it's BETTER for a company to close down it's factory and move to another country, lay off all it's workers and they go on unemployment, all local business shut down because the employees aren't shopping local, no real estate taxes being paid by company, all the suppliers to the company have economic hardship, utility companies suffer, etc. etc. etc.
Sounds like utopia in your world."

Nope--it's better if Trump grew a pair and actually made a GOOD deal. Threaten the company with tariffs, loss of government contracts, etc. if they move jobs rather than giving away taxpayer dollars.
