My folks took me to Dan Fogelberg when I was like 9? First real concert was Bush with Veruca Salt opening in like 96. Last concert I went to was Rammstein in 2011ish. Those guys put on a SHOW.

Djarum posted:You eliminate loans for education period. State and City colleges become Federally funded, free to all. You give funding to accredited Trade Schools and Apprenticeships. But I agree college is a stupid requirement for a lot of jobs. I don't know how to hold private business's feet to the fire to make them invest in their employees again though. Tax breaks and grants aren't going to work there, since if they did you would have seen the trend reverse. You need a good carrot and a stick which I don't think anyone has. You aren't going to get businesses to invest in their employees, because as soon as they train them they'll market those skills elsewhere because the only way to get a meaningful raise anymore is to job hop.

Marx Was A Lib posted:Which is why, if it happens, it should be handled quickly, quietly, and as a somber duty, not a celebration. If we are going to take this action, it needs to be abundantly clear that it's not a partisan effort, it's not a hit at a previous administration, it's the natural legal process to deal with an individual that's broken the law. It will require coordination, trust, and communication between both the Democrats and the Republican party, so it almost certainly won't happen. I think we're on to something here. Lets workshop this a bit. Maybe the presidential inauguration should actually be an execution. Gotta make tough, wholly immoral choices if you want the big chair - it's the only way to maintain the moral purity of the nation, you see? And you can go after the big chair so long as you recognize your day is up when the next guy steps in. What kind of person would this job attract then? Hmm... self-martyring, victim complex, oh gently caress it we'd just get more Trumps but worse. Nevermind!

Can Mitch hold up cabinet post confirmations indefinitely? Would Biden just have to have a revolving door of acting Secretaries in that case?

Rea posted:Parler apparently requires not only your DL ID number to be verified, but your SSN to use their equivalent of DMs. Holy poo poo this is a nasty breach How would they verify your SSN? Surely some random internet schmo company doesn't have access to that? (sorry if dumb question, not a computer toucher at all)

Majorian posted:Cheri Bustos, who was responsible for the Dems' House election efforts this year, was one of them. As were Cuellar, Lipinski, Lamb - the usual suspects. Ugh - Bustos' district is where I grew up, and Lipinski's district is where I live now. Illinois Dems need to do better.

Kalit posted:I mean.... fiction also got ports so lovely it was pulled from PSN..... so I don't know who the true loser is. Obviously, not PC gamers (I don't have any game console/PC capable of playing Cyberpunk 2077, so I have no skin in the game) Isn't there a senate rule about any one senator can hold something up indefinitely for any reason? Like separate from the filibuster? Or am I just spreading more FUD?

Jealous Cow posted:Would love to hear your reasoning behind them just bring a tax on the poor. If you didn't kill anyone and have the money to afford a competent lawyer it basically amounts to a fine, and then the old adage of "laws where the penalty is only money only really apply to the poor" kicks in.

Herstory Begins Now posted:Yeah it's alarming how completely effective interrogation is. They started rolling it out to police departments in some trial studies a few years back (where it has, surprise, been wildly successful) specifically to greatly broaden the pool of data on it. And yeah there are a lot of concerning implications on a ton of different levels with the ways it effectively side-steps peoples' self protective instincts. I couldn't begin to guess the effects it has on people long term, though I'd be surprised if it is worse for either the practitioners or the participants than the range of older methods. Isn't that along the same lines as when Mattis was asked if he would agree to Trump's demand to torture suspects and he replied along the lines of "Torture?! Hell no, I'd get way more actionable intelligence with a 6-pack and a pack of smokes."

evilweasel posted:by the way, manchin already telegraphed what his demand for the $4t biden stimulus bill will be. manchin, a foul austerity hawk, will demand it be at least partially paid for. So it's a complete and total non-starter. Does Grover Norquist still own tax policy on the right?

evilweasel posted:you can do all that with 50 votes in reconciliation in september, if joe manchin is on board because you asked republicans politely if they'd prefer the tax increase be weighted more towards corporations or more towards capital gains by the wealthy and they told you to pound sand and he goes welp biden tried ahh, infrastructure is slated for the next reconciliation bill? I thought they were going to try and do it via the normal method. Although if they're going to tie some tax increases into it I guess they cannot.

GlyphGryph posted:There are definitely times where a lot of job experience is seen as a bad thing, especially when stuff has changed a lot recently. I got disappointed when I found out our new IT guy at work was older than I am. He replaced a guy that was WAY older than I am, but I was hoping for someone younger. We had a college kid intern with us for a summer a couple years ago and by the end of the summer not only did our cell phones work inside the building (they absolutely did not before) but we got an entirely new wifi system that worked, too.
