  1. Let me know when this will be so I can be prepared. It's just like Wisconsin and the John Doe investigations. Nothing happened, but the walker haters were able to keep leaking "possible criminal activity", until they finally found a candidate. This is the same.
  2. Soon? FFS, how long does it take. It's like a death in the family. When it's sudden and unexpected, there is a shock factor, but with this, it's like a slow hospital stay or a missing person that is found dead after a while. No longer a shock factor, just get it over with and get on with life.
  3. I am surprised that it was a coal plant that they were going to fire back up. Where are they getting the coal from?
  4. Maybe just to reassure the statistics your being fed? Or question the reason it's being told to you?
  5. The active psychology workforce was primarily White: in 2013, Whites accounted for 83.6 percent of active psychologists. Racial/ethnic minority groups, including Asian (4.3 percent), Black/African American (5.3 percent), Hispanic (5.0 percent) and other racial/ethnic groups (1.7 percent), accounted for approximately 16.4 percent of active psychologists.6

  7. Did they give any other statistics or only "black women over 65". Did you take notes, of the demographic in that seminar, what was ratio of blacks to whites that went?
  8. Interesting. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2018/05/21/suicide-rates-for-black-children-twice-that-of-white-children-new-data-show/?utm_term=.5159161fc21a “We can’t assume any longer that suicide rates are uniformly higher in white individuals than black,” said Bridge, an epidemiologist who directs the Center for Suicide Prevention and Research at the Columbus hospital. “There is this age-related disparity, and now we have to understand the underlying reasons. … Most of the previous research has largely concerned white suicide. So we don’t even know if the same risk and protective factors apply to black youth.”
  9. Wow. Are you guys fucking serious? You think I am talking about people living in the hood? My god, it's amazing the thought processes of some on this. If you are surrounded by the same people constantly saying the same thing, you will eventually start parroting the same. Damn it's not that hard to figure out.
  10. Ah, selective support. Just like selective outrage.
  11. SMH at the selective outrage.
  12. Either you don't understand or don't want to understand. So, in your case, would your perception of the world change depending on the people you live or work around?
  13. Here ya go. Everyone can draw their own conclusions https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/factory-orders
  14. I agree with you and that this is probably not the way it should be done, but there is no law preventing it. I guess this is the state of politics right now in Wisconsin.
  15. "All things that are every bit our Constitutional rights on both the Federal and State level. Not sure why that upsets you. Not sure why that upsets you." Are they doing something Unconstitutional?
  16. You start multiple threads per day, whining about something.... I guess you would know about it...sorry.
  17. Literacy rate A 2007 report found that about one-third of Washington residents are functionally illiterate, compared to a national rate of about one in five. This is attributed in part to immigrants who are not proficient in English.[40] A 2005 study showed that 85.16% of Washington, D.C. residents age five and older speak only English at home and 8.78% speak Spanish. French is the third-most-spoken language at 1.35%.[41] In contrast to the high rate of functional illiteracy, nearly 46% of D.C. residents 25 and older have at least a four-year college degree, and 25% have a graduate or professional degree.[17] In 2006, Washington residents had a median family income of $58,526. This has not changed much during the past five years.[20] LGBT population A 2012 Gallup Daily tracking poll found 10% of the residents in the District of Columbia were most likely to identify as LGBT, the highest in the nation.[42] A 2005 Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Law and Public Policy study estimated 8.1% of LGB people make up the adult population of Washington, D.C., the highest in the United States.[43] The 2000 census revealed that an estimated 33,000 adults in the District of Columbia identify as gay, lesbian, or bisexual, about 8.1% of the city's adult population.[44]
  18. Probably a couple per week and we are not a very big company. I fail to see why there is so much opposition to something so simple.
  19. Video conferencing. Corporations do it all the time.
  20. Nice try. The idea was put forth, please explain why it should not be implemented. Give any reason why Representatives and Senators should be in DC and can't do their job from their respective states offices all the time? You already had help from benny. He seems to think that corruption is what this idea is trying to remedy. LOL.
  21. Honestly, there is getting to be only a few people on this site that care to discuss topics with understandable and comprehensive posts. The rest are merely mundane. Just like the last one....yeah lobbyists can travel, everyone knows that. It is worth about one post in the discussion when it comes to getting politicians to move away from DC.
  22. Can podesta be at the same place at the same time? We should keep all that big lobby money in DC, right? FFS, it's amazing that something so simple would have opposition from anyone.
  23. Those people were voted in to do a job. How are they saying "fuck your vote", Maybe they believe they are doing exactly what their constituents want?
