I fucking love this story. Thanks for sharing it!
In ~~1498~~ 2025, the ~~Inquisition~~ conservatives stated that it was impossible to translate the ~~Bible~~ constitution into a modern language without making mistakes that would plunge unskilled and especially ~~new converts ~~ liberals into ~~doubts about faith~~ woke DEI like equality, no slavery, and birthright citizenship
These programs exist but bureaucratic hurdles prevented people from actually having their loans forgiven.
Biden bypassed all that and just forgave the loans. This is also what he did for the other 5 million loans. Sure you COULD argue he did nothing, but if you ask those 5 MILLION people who were paying loans that should have been forgiven but weren't until Biden's executive orders I think they'll say something different.
What the fuck are you talking about? You ever had a cop find and arrest someone who violated your rights? Must be nice to be that well off! Around here cops just beat students during protests and protect scabs during strikes.
Having to save us a couple hundred dollars to be able to go on a dinner and movie type date isn't the same as just being able to do that impromptu knowing it's okay.
Both are nice though, but one has a lot less stress overall in life.
Sadly, no one does that.
It's the best option.
I only counted 4x6 .... because I can't count :(
Best part is that if you include the free space in the center it actually has the exact number of boxes for a full bingo card.
Yeah, no arguments there. Placebo works though, so it's not entirely useless. It's sugar pills and it works as well as sugar pills which is somehow quite a bit.
I saw a convoy of about 30 cars on the highway back in October. I looked it up and found nothing. Then I see a Reddit post in /r/vexillollogy with the same flag and no useful answers.
It's so weird that people bought like 100 of these flags and there is no info on them at all!
I flipped the picture to make the flag the right way.
The laughable Bank of Canada report even includes the line
Why did this increase in markups not contribute significantly to inflation? We show that markup growth reached its highest level because of a contraction in firms’ costs [...] during the pandemic-related public health interventions
So when their costs go down they keep the prices the same and pocket the difference, BoC report verdict "profit growth without inflation". So what happens when costs go back up?
We observe a mild contribution of markup growth to inflation in 2021, partially explained by demand rebounding faster than costs. However, the fact that markup growth fell to zero the following year indicates that firms were likely smoothing out their price increases [...] rather than leveraging increases in market power.
So when the costs go back up, they pass 100% of the cost to the consumer and keep their new higher profit margins (no change in markup). BoC verdict "the inflation has nothing to do with profit growth". Amazing!
If industry follows this "price ratchet" mechanism profit margins can go to infinity "without causing inflation" according to BoC. Absolutely galaxy brain levels of economic genius.
They really think we're idiots.
Imagine changing the Bible version of Jesus to supply side Jesus unironically. I swear my ribs hurt from laughing at the OP and your comment, thank you, I needed that.
