On a related note, a woman I know once dated a weirdo who was into demons, at least to some degree. Quite apart from that he was just a pothead loser. After she finally figured out he wasn't any good and dumped him, she claimed she felt an evil prese...  [Read More]

It's not one of Congress' enumerated powers to do any of those things. We are on a slippery slope with the advent of these ruling by Congress. Right now, there are those that think this is a good idea. Why? Would you want the government to tell you h...  [Read More]

Sounds like a good idea to me. The need to keep the pay competitive seems like an excuse to continue paying the extremely high amounts, nothing more. If you're motivated to make 14 million (IIRC, that's how much one CEO got), how much motivation do y...  [Read More]
