They should go on tour to promote this brilliant idea south of the border.

Leftists are self castrating.

When your enemy is castrating himself, hand him the scissors.

The "left" is not your enemy. These are your countrymen and women. They are what they are.
There are others out there that would treat you far differently.

They sure don't treat us like our own "countrymen". Who the fuck sues the baker for not baking them a cake? I'm not saying leftists are like Al Queda, but they aren't exactly friends. They are going fucking crazy from all the over the top leftist propaganda that is being sold to them by assholes on the left. Who runs women marches, where they celebrate their hatred for men, and they really utterly hate men. Only thing that stops them from doing worse is laws. I've seen plenty of hate from the left, and telling, only thing that keeps them at bay is potential jail time (aka risk vs reward).

I’d argue that in a world where any soul of any nation or race may choose an ideology to guide their decisions and goals, the only true enemies of humanity ARE toxic ideologies!
Since “the Left” refers more to an ideology than a specific recognizable group of people, and the Left is demonstrably toxic, that makes the Left the true enemy.
I’d regard the people caught up in that ideology as captives or perhaps guilty of wrongheaded thinking. They aren’t the enemy. They can still come to their senses and adopt a more positive ideology.

The "left" is not your enemy.

True, they are everyone's enemy.

The Right is suspicion to high-falultin' "perfect solution" ideas set to replace time tried trial-and-error that may not be "perfect".

The Left is hostility to the tried-and-not-too-bad based on ideological assumptions.

Any woman who agrees to something this ridiculous is doing the earth a favor. Natural selection triumphs again!

The willingness of Americans to kill (or starve) other Americans is disturbing. It's almost as if some Americans don't consider other Americans as people.

You just described the Democrat party.

Remember that guy in San Diego? You know, the one that got the tank from the armory? Drove that shit all over. Point is cities have armories, with tanks.

Tanks are the most useless in cities: The top armor is the weakest, cover is abundant, not just 360 around the tank but far more dangerously for it, above it. Tanks thrive in open terrain.

Furthermore, the 3rd ACR is based in Ford Hood, TX, 1st Armored is in Fort Bliss, TX also not smack dab in the middle of a major metropolitan area.

What is in National Guard armories will be limited; the active armored units with high readiness are in small cities like Killeen or El Paso.

Not even getting into the massive discrepancy of the political beliefs of Combat Units in particular, not just the armed forces.

Elizabeth Warren is a total phony.

What she is really saying is "Amazon, Google, and Facebook, I need some contributions!"

I like the idea. Amazon, Google, and Facebook are actually too monopolistic and too invasive of privacy.

I don't care who proposed it, unlike Democrats, who reflexively oppose everything Trump proposes, even their own prior positions. Like on protecting our southern border.

I don't think we need to break up companies. I do however wish they would legislate against these leveraged buyouts. You shouldn't be able to expand your company to the hilts on the back of others. This is the primary flaw in fixing interests rates low. It encourages these megacorporations to swallow each other up with massive amounts of debt on the books.

Did we really need to allow Bank of America to buy out 2 dozen other companies before going belly up and needing a bailout.

I own Exxon Mobile and it's one of my favorite companies. But did we really need to allow Exon and Mobile to merge?

Same goes for Kraft and Heinz. I mean...I was out of Heinz after they sold...but I just envision a well run company like Heinz being undermined by new bad management.

Hope he goes through with this.

side note: In the past 10 years, the internet has becoming a big pile of trash. I want to look up info on my phone and the first 5 results are ads related to my search and all the video links are stupid vloggers staring into the camera talking about it.

Wait... isn’t she the one who is always preaching the evils of wealthy Americans and big corporations? I guess they’re only evil until hey give her enough money.
Fauxcohontas strikes again.
She’s one of the most dishonest politicians in DC today.

design food that will kill us without drugs to digest them

Already designed and could be purchased in supermarkets. Called "fat-free potato chips", made with Olestra. After you eat them, you need calcium supplements (Olestra removes Ca from body) and compounds preventing anal leaching as Olestra makes everything shoot out of intestines like a rocket. Unfortunately, not widely marketed in US any more, but I am sure they will discover other new, exciting additives soon.

It would be worth it just to watch them cry.

This is a good idea. Hopefully team Trump runs w this as a bi-partisan push

The Fast Track to Being a CEO-Engineer - A dual undergraduate program in engineering and business is gaining traction with students.

Shubham Banerjee is a typical teenager—playing football, losing himself in video games, doing homework—except when it comes to his career ambitions. The high school senior says he’s known for several years that he wants to found and lead a company, to be a “legendary CEO.” The founding part should come easy: At age 13, Banerjee started a company that makes Braille printers.

Last spring, as he started to consider colleges, he learned of a program at the University of California-Berkeley that would allow him to earn both a bachelor of science in engineering and a bachelor of business in four years. He recently was notified that he’s among the fewer than 3 percent of about 2,500 applicants accepted into the incoming freshman class in Berkeley’s Management, Entrepreneurship, & Technology (MET) program.

Interest in such combined programs is increasing among students and prospective employers, according to Phil Kaminsky, the executive associate dean at UC-Berkeley’s college of engineering, and Michael Grimes, the head of technology banking at Morgan Stanley. “There is a shortage of coders who lead and leaders who code,” Grimes says. “It’s like looking for a needle in the haystack to find someone who is both.”

Grimes pitched Berkeley, his undergraduate alma mater, on the concept of MET in 2016 and offered to donate a significant portion of the $10 million endowment needed to get it off the ground. He was inspired, he says, by the Jerome Fisher Program in Management & Technology at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, started in 1977. His son graduated from that program.

Grimes also knows several of that program’s graduates, including Herald Chen, who leads the technology, media, and telecommunications team in the Americas for the private equity firm KKR & Co. “Having people that are already more multifaceted, as opposed to going to engineering undergrad and then business school, it’s a lot more efficient and a lot more grounding,” Chen says. “The engineering background gives you more credibility to sit with the engineers in the room.”

In its first year and a half—the inaugural class started in the fall of 2017—MET has drawn students from the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. Freshman Diego González chose Berkeley-MET over MIT and Carnegie Mellon’s school of computer science. Born and raised in Puerto Rico, González was founder of his high school’s entrepreneurship club and the U.S. Presidential Scholar winner from the island in April 2018. Berkeley’s location, close to Silicon Valley, was appealing—he wanted to be in the thick of the tech industry. This summer, González will intern at Eventbrite, the ticketing company based in San Francisco.

Berkeley quickly got on board with the idea after the pitch. Grimes and his reputation in the tech industry—he’s overseen some of the biggest tech deals of the past decade, including Facebook Inc.’s and Google’s initial public offerings—lend a lot of credibility to the program, according to several Berkeley faculty and administrators involved in creating MET. Still, rolling out MET presented challenges. “Berkeley is a large institution,” says former Haas School Dean Rich Lyons. “When you start talking about adding new programs and dual degree programs,” there are many questions to address: “How does the revenue flow? Who pays for what? What are the curriculum requirements?”

Grimes doesn’t have a formal role at MET—he devotes a lot of time to connecting students and graduates with potential employers, carrying students’ résumés in a folder or on a USB drive as he goes about his day job, meeting with the world’s top technology execs. And he’s the program’s biggest champion—the vanity plate on his Tesla reads BKLYMET. “We are finding those needles," he says, “and putting them in a group of needles just as unique as they are.”

BOTTOM LINE - Students and prospective employers, especially in the tech sector, increasingly are interested in dual programs such as Berkeley’s MET, giving them an edge in their postgraduate job search.

You chose her lefties. Now she’ll kill you all.

Suicide watch starts now.

Will Trump pardon him? If not, IMPEACH TRUMP!

OccasionalCortex says

You mean the kind of suicide that involves two bullets in the back of the head?

Hey, he made a run for it.....

Where's Marcus?

They both look Gay.

Raging alcoholic. He musta been tough, 73 is a ripe old age for what he put his body through.

She forgot to talk about sucking bankster cocks so hard he got pubie burns on the roof of his mouth.

That's where those mouth calluses from Michelle come in handy.

It's nice when Democrats start thinking a little more coherently instead of just Orange Man Bad.

Hopefully it will lead to more reasoned debate, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Ceffer says

This is the obvious truth of the situation.

I hope voters get sick of Democratic attempts to undermine democracy and punish them soundly in the next election.

That was a good show when I was a kid along with knight rider, Ateam

Don't underestimate democrat delusion.
Trump is the stupid evil genius who colluded with Russia to deny the world the first US woman president; " impeachment and then prison" is the mantra of The Trump resisters.
