Fantastic read, thanks for sharing. At a realistic interest rate, the savings per month are literally just a few dollars. Unbelievable.
This idea seems like something that someone who understands absolutely nothing about economics and doesn’t care to learn anything beyond initial vibes would latch onto, which is precisely why Donald Trump is pushing it.
You’re right, but he did say the monthly payment was the difference, not the interest payments. That typically doesn’t change throughout the life of the loan. I wonder what the math formula looks like for a 50 year fixed?
Isn’t that just renting?
A shining force meme in the wild? Wow.
Just make him a fucking king already then, you spineless mollusks. That’ll make your jobs much easier so you won’t have to make hard decisions like choosing to fight for your constituents.
Dems fucking caved. FOR NOTHING. Stupid motherfuckers.
If the sole reason you have a Costco membership is for the hotdogs, then I would agree, but for the vast majority of people the reason they shop at Costco is to buy items in bulk and save money compared to buying the same amount at the local chain grocery store.
It’s not even because the hotdog itself is particularly good. It’s your standard beef frankfurter and a fountain soda. There’s no magic with the item from a culinary standpoint. It’s the fact that they still haven’t raised the price on it when they almost certainly could have done so silently a long time ago and nobody would have noticed or cared. It’s the one act of upper management bothering to think about their customers for a change rather than just gouging every single cent they can get out of their members because some math formula told them that it was possible.
Sometimes they can’t even win when Trump is on the ballot. Seems more accurate to say that they can’t win unless a woman is on the democratic ticket.
Hope he’s somewhere nice and hot.
The fucking media are such pussies.
I wish news outlets were run by journalists who burn with a passion to be the one who breaks the story that turns the whole world upside down, and not money grubbing billionaire parasites.
Yes. The states are responsible for running elections, not the federal government, so them being shut down doesn’t affect tomorrow.
It started last week, but only amounted to flight delays. I anticipate that things are unlikely to improve and will only get worse as more and more ATCs call in sick in protest.
My prediction is that it will end this week when federal ATC employees stop showing up for work, thus directly affecting the quality of life of republican lawmakers and their billionaire donors. That’s exactly why the last “longest shutdown in history” ended too.
Starving people? Hardly an inconvenience to the ultra rich. Can’t fly their private jet? One phone call to Trump and the shutdown is over that afternoon.
Just FYI after the 5th one I’m just cumming air at that point, but if there are 2,430 women out there who want to give it a try anyway be my guest.
They won because people were stick and tired of Trump fucking things up as usual. Not just his pandemic response, but everything.
But the American electorate have the memories of goldfish, so they herp derped their way to the polling stations to vote for Trump to save them from the inflation that he caused during his first term.
I have never had any encounters with shit on the streets of SF. Now granted, I haven’t worked in the city in almost a decade, but this reputation it seems to have is nothing new.
I think if SF business owners weren’t so fuckin’ stingy about people using their restrooms then the people who can’t afford to buy something at the grossly inflated SF prices just for the privilege of accessing a sanitary place to relieve themselves in privacy that the rest of us take for granted each day would be a lot less likely to shit or piss on the streets.
I remember waiting for the train after a night of particularly heavy drinking, and it was a 20+ minute wait for the next BART train, and I was already doing the pee dance on the platform. I knew I wasn’t going to make it to the south bay before my bladder exploded. Station restrooms were already locked (even though trains were still running), so I went out to Market street and entered a nearby McDonalds. Asked to use their restroom, said I would buy something from their menu if necessary. Nope, they refused. I wasn’t about to pee my pants, so you know what I did? I went and I pissed on the street right in front of their front doors. Problem solved.
If you leave people no possible way to do something “correctly”, don’t be surprised if they start doing it incorrectly on purpose.
Lmao there’s no way that’ll ever happen. If the greedy capital class can extort more value out of your free time, they will.
Those faces could scare the stone off of a gargoyle.
A nice gesture from some patriotic people, I’m sure, but we all know that laws meant to hold powerful people accountable for their actions are now meaningless.
I expect that if this suit does not get outright dismissed, a Trump-appointed circuit judge or the SCOTUS will swoop in to save Trump yet again.
Try telling anybody that Humans are animals too and there’s a better than 50% chance they will argue with you about that as well.
