Go Woke, Go Broke???

That's what we do: collect miles, hotel points and cash back, pay-off all balances each month.

But has anyone else noticed a trend among some vendors to pass off the fees the credit card issuer charges them onto the consumer? I get it with the small mom and pop's, but Belle Tire wanted to charge Mrs. oze 3% to use a CC. I'm starting to see this more and more.

I use my cash app card as a buffer for my bank accounts. Works great.

Science is real. It evolves to be the best that it can be through collaboration and peer review.

…and funding influences, and who gets to be the head of which department. Basically scientists are humans too, subject to the same biases as anyone else and they have no greater moral stuff preventing them from going around the safeguards than people in any other profession. The scientific method is great. Scientists are as flawed as any human being.

Good. Once every company closes their doors and citizens have nowhere to shop, eat, gather and all that, hopefully they'll pressure the local government to pull their heads out of their butts and crack down on crime. I won't hold my breath though.

"Crack down on crime"? That isn't how that works. Social and economic problems lead to crime. Not the other way around. Better schools and economic opportunities for young people always brings down crime. No cop "Stops" crime. They are retribution not a cure. Retribution just passes that situation on to the next generation.

Seems like it's way past time for some female empowerment. Candy companies are going to celebrate that in a "Candy" way.

Female empowerment?

I'm just sad that site emojis don't function with my phone. Because popcorn.

Music sucks, all of it.

Lol. It's hilarious watching people who "Freedom at all costs" but can't stand when people use that freedom to live how they want to. Stop lying to yourself. You don't want Freedom. You want a Theocracy so that you can control everyone.

Huh. I wonder what the impact refusing to prosecute theft below $900 has on crime. Care to ask Walgreens?

 

[ZZZZZZZZZZZ]

Female empowerment?

Indeed. Why is that bad? Please explain.

We are Americans. The harder you squeeze us the harder we fight. Using a hammer to "stop crime" just gives you more nails to smack down.

Why do you think I think it’s bad? I’m laughing at your perspective, because I think it’s retarded. Your perspective, that is. Not women.

Agreed. That is what peer review is for.

That’s retarded. People weren’t raiding Walgreens and stealing **** in mobs before these idiotic prosecutors stopped prosecuting them. Reality has ass ****ed your ideology and you’re too blind to see it.

 

[jamil]

Agreed. That is what peer review is for.

Except when the peers review it and the review critiques orthodoxy. We have a top down hegemony in Western science. That’s not science.

Whew. Good. I don't want religion funding schools anyway. That's what Islam does.

You don’t want Christian’s funding Christian schools? Or you don’t think people ought to have the freedom of association?

Christians should stay in church. Not in my kids school.

Anybody else you think should stay in a box you approve of?

ETA: if your kids weren’t going to a Christian school (and it sounds like they wouldn’t be) then your kids are “safe”.

I say this because Christians promote Christian values i.e. elitism otherness and fantasy worlds that get conflated with the real world.
