Good actor. Have always liked his sister Virginia as well

This is correct. No programming necessary however. Common sense is all that’s needed to understand that the government should not be propping up a biased organization through millions of dollars of subscriptions to one of their products. Is politico pro a necessity to be informed? If you can’t measure its effectiveness, how do you know it’s of value? Your entire argument is “it’s information”. There will be zero real world impact associated with the cancellation of these subscriptions.

Why what?

It’s housing affordability. That’s it.

Let me paraphrase Roundy’s rebuttal: ”Other than those examples, I mean”

Now that is actually funny!

50 trillion in debt by 2030 here we come! I mean yeah, which is why California gutting CEQR is a huge deal. You have to remove restrictions to building to increase supply.

It’s an inane question. If people are informed, they do their jobs better. If they are not informed, they do their jobs worse. You didn’t even know Politico Pro existed before you were programmed to be against it. Why?

If you get a similar result next postseason where the defense shrinks against the Chiefs/Ravens/Bengals and the offense keeps it close again than I think it's time to move on from McDermott. A six year sample size is enough. You just can't keep banging your head against the wall. I'd prefer just to promote Joe Brady to head coach to hopefully keep most of the staff together. A lot can happen in a year though. However, there's this problem........... Which is why Terry would never do it so this 24 page thread is pretty much useless.

Lmao your bias blinds you. We need all types of industries not just high tech. Obsolete hardly.

NYS should be DOGEing. Northern real estate especially in the NE could be alternatives for folks getting priced out of areas in the South. I’ve been saying this for months. If blue states want to get back to relevancy and attract people to move and invest again - it is the only way. They just can’t do it. Public sector unions have too much power. So priced out folks in the south just create new hot beds of growth.

I spend a good bit of time in Greenville, SC. When I last had an apartment downtown, it was a 2 bedroom/2 bath at 3kish per month. Sure, it’s not Upper East Side rent, but $36k per year requires you to be making good money.. especially when salaries in the south are typically lower, in relation, to Manhattan. Affordable is relative.. but there’s this thought amongst northern liberals that souther states are growing so rapidly because we’re paying $1500 per month rent in cities down here. That’s not happening unless you want a one bedroom in the suburbs.

You didn’t address the question. How is the effectiveness of millions of dollars of politico pro subscriptions measured? Me poor? Please. I bought the dip! Rolling in it!!

That’s REALLY early to announce broadly (from sad personal experience).

It’s functioning because we built a robust government infrastructure over decades. However, it is certainly less efficient and informed because you didn’t want to pay 0.000005 cents to give these employees the data. Sorry you’re so poor.

Yes, mid-size cities are rising because they’re affordable. Dallas and other Texas cities have done an admirable job in increasing housing supply, so much so that rents in Austin have fallen over the past year. Even Buffalo experienced a population increase.

Mahomes wasn't a consensus number one overall pick either Hence why nine teams passed on him he also got to sit on the bench behind a pro bowl caliber quarterback and correct some flaws from the sideline which is always the correct way to bring along a quarterback if you can

Here we go. This is why MAGA didn’t want this guy coming back. He was going to blow the whistle on the inhumane treatment of human beings in El Salvador. This is what MAGA loves - the suffering of human beings. We’re going to need Nuremberg II when all is said and done.

People aren’t fleeing Atlanta. It’s expensive in Buckhead and Midtown. Blue city in a red state seem to do fine. People aren’t fleeing Dallas. People aren’t fleeing Nashville. People aren’t fleeing Miami. People aren’t fleeing Charlotte and Raleigh. Mid-size South Carolina cities like Greenville and Charleston are exploding. A downtown 2 bedroom apartment in Greenville, SC and Charleston, SC is between $2,800-$3,600 per month.

Is it really? How is government still “functioning”? How has the benefit of having access to politico pro been measured? How will the unavailability of politico pro be measured?

If they are working here, yes they should have access to healthcare. There’s absolutely no reason not to. This notion of “29 year olds in mom’s basement playing video games all day” is a complete strawman you guys have made up. It doesn’t happen. They’re fleeing it because it’s simply not affordable to live. When the median house in California is over $700,000, then it’s no surprise people are leaving it. Nearly every single prominent American metropolis is blue.

Most of those jobs are obsolete. We need to get better at solar, microchips, and other high tech. We don’t need investment in tin can factories This is like taking away Bloomberg terminals from stockbrokers
