Not $8+ `til January. Also interesting, tied to inflation. http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2013/11/nj_voters_approve_constitutional_amendment_raising_minimum_wage.html

That is interesting, thanks. Curious that the usual suspects are not touting this great feat. I mean, I have two main issues with minimum wage - IMO it hurts the economy and it is less freedom. If it turns out to not really hurt the economy in minimal amounts, that takes out a big chunk of...

So the burger flippers are striking. http://news.yahoo.com/fast-food-strikes-return-amid-push-wage-hikes-114457533--finance.html There's a few interesting quotes in this story. But the most interesting one is the very last line: THAT is exactly how our country is supposed to...

Uhm. Nope. You talk it as such a great place then decline a free offer to move there, house included! LMAO. Unless you are reconsidering the offer? It would make you true to your words about what an awesome place Detroit is and will be.

I know you missed my point. "Watched and spied upon" !=background checks and registrations. Would you be wiling to settle for infringement of right to bear arms to be limited to being watched and spied upon? For the record, I agree that we should not hand out guns willy nilly. And I also...

One wonders what such a person might think if (say) we decided Islam was a dangerous religion, given their propensity to strap on bombs and blow up people and things. I see that freedom of religion is just as much a right as freedom to bear arms, surely we could require mandatory background...

Also on the libtard myth list: Capitalism makes more people wealthy and the average person better off than communism People create wealth Big governments are more expensive and offer less liberty People deserve the money they earn Successful cultures are better than and...

And those three branches would be bullshit, money and lobbyists. :D EDIT:Whoops, from PJ O'Rourke Parliament of Whores: ". . .Money, Television and Bullshit. . ."

In a more enlightened age, one could make the argument that a second term POTUS would be more beholden to voters with term #3 in mind. Today however, many voters see politics as some sort of game and they are routing for their team. Most voters (IMO) have only the barest knowledge of the names...

SLFC=not spend like a mofo trying to stop certain things such as drugs, tobacco, alcohol, gay marriage, etc. Basically the idea that government is about enforcing "real" rights and not about trying to "improve" society by outlawing certain behaviors that do not infringe on the rights of...

They don't call it the New York Slimes for nothin': Read the rest at: http://news.yahoo.com/ugly-end-duke-lacrosse-story-050013152.html

We are in negotiations now, but I don't think they can meet my needs. :D

They should fire all the cops and spend 100 million on a new scoreboard. Just think how awesome the place would be then. :P

LOL. `Tard #2 can't even get `tard #1's nick right.

Folks calling your sorry ass out, ricter. Step up, move to Detroit. Show the world you are true to your words.

I bet we could raise enough money right here on ET to buy ricter a house right there if we could be sure he'd live there 24x7. And just think of the great growth potential he'd get as Detroit revived from disease ridden filth to epic growth engine of the 21rst century! How could he refuse...

Uhm. Not really a surprise, that was the plan all along.

You guys blame Baron way too much. I am the secret agent working hard to promote bitcoins and squash dissent. He's just a figurehead, a pawn in the real game. At this point, the fix is in, the game is locked and I can reveal all. Well, maybe not all, but several things. So, what would you...

I see the usual losers are all agog as I point out obvious facts. How it hurts their brains to try to distort their view of reality to mesh with the few concepts that they allowed in. In their view of the world, I am an officer of the Klu Klux Klan, not Senator Byrd (D)...
