A house should not be an investment. One of the reasons we're in this mess in the first place.

I've always preferred Greek salad without the lettuce. It just gets soggy too quickly. A lettuce-less Greek salad also keeps decently well for a day or two.
Hasn't been for a few years I believe.
His lack of integrity is on full display. Campaigning to "vote for change", not accepting the change his constituents voted for, then clearly taking advantage of taxpayer funded housing really just shows the true colours of both him and the CPC.
TBH, the reasoning applied on the kick goal could've applied to this one too. It went off Ottinger's helmet prior to crossing the goal line. I don't think the fans were out of line at all.
The "screeee" of that felt marker that's dryer than a mouthful of sand.
"Small government" and all
That's a great point. Doesn't much matter if there are methods in place if many are complicit in the tyranny.
It's quite interesting how American's have always been about their government's "checks and balances" to prevent tyranny, but all it took was one person who was fine with saying, "fuck your checks and balances" to effectively create a dictatorship, and the whole government is left blabbering, "you can't do that" with no mechanism to actually do anything meaningful to remove the tyrant.
Like, I'm sure there were "checks and balances" in place for employing directors of these various governments offices, so it's almost comical that a President can just fire anyone who doesn't agree with him. I suppose it's not surprising for a country with very little worker protections, though.
Telcos (all utilities, really) should be nationalized
