  • It's now down 18.5% on the day! I wouldn't be surprised if Elon has used a lot of his shares to guarantee loans that will now come due.

  • Tesla is down 14% today, it's down almost 50% since Jan 21st. Maybe this is trump trying to get rid of Elon?

  • Is this sarcasm? Sponsorships are not the same as ads.

  • They didn't cause the Great depression, but they did make it worse.

  • That right turn lane has a light on it. It's next to the ped crossing.

  • Just so everyone knows. Child poverty went down because Dems had enough power to expand the child tax credit as part of Bidens American rescue plan. The expanded credit then expired and Republicans have blocked passage of the renewed expansion. This is another thing where Republicans will do anything to harm Democrats including voting against extremely popular programs. I agree that it sucks the poverty went back up, but Dems reduced it and Republicans increased it.

  • I can't find a solid confirmation but it looks like as part of the law killing the strike and enacting the recommendations of the emergency board, the attendance rules creating points was vacated without further agreements from the unions. So from what I can tell, your statement is incorrect. I looked up the emergency board's recommendations but I didn't do a deep dive into the law to confirm. Link to the recommendations below.

  • I agree with you for the most part. That being said I have tried to explain this point to multiple people and they don't care that the Biden admin got the rail workers what they asked for. They insist that stopping the strike means Biden was anti union full stop even after the IBEW put out releases thanking the Biden admin. they also said it was just propaganda. It's just as much about people not wanting to listen.

  • I tried the purple cushion and it wasn't worth it. But besides that I don't have a recommendation.

  • Yea I have the dry on the fly pants and shorts. I know the undies are supposed to be good but I'm 100% on exofficio.

  • You can also find steelcase chairs on eBay for reasonable prices. They have all the adjustments and a wide variety of material options.

  • Same

  • What tactic should they have used to get those big things passed? Shutting down the government is pretty much the only thing they weren't willing to do.

    Again incremental change is the only thing that could get done with the power they were given. They still support major change but they don't have enough power to get it done. Yes it sucks that one party is trying to improve things and they can't get more done. But what else would you have them do with the amount of power they were given?

  • What policies changed when they courted Republicans? Because as far as I can tell nothing changed for that but they did say that even with our policy differences, Republicans advocated voting for Dems. Dems have lgbtq+ and black people and immigrants and unions and many other groups that don't have a single unifying cause. Republicans have Christian white people for the most part.

  • I don't disagree. Different parties have different makeups. Dems are big tent and Repubs are unified single issue voters.

  • Since when did Dems abandon those things? They have repeatedly had them in the platform or at least verbally supported them and have pushed bills in Congress to get them done. The complaint was that they weren't done under Dems control not that Dems didn't support the issues.

    Dems will make compromises to get incremental change. I don't fault them for that. They fight for every inch they can get. That's not a flaw it's a feature. Giving up something that is minor for bigger progress on something else can be worth it. Just like when Pelosi and Schumer gave up minor concessions to Trump for significant protection on the budget fight.

  • I would also suggest Duluth trading. It's been my go to for a long time. Similar in quality to Carhartt but has more material options. Their dry on the fly line of stuff is 90% of what I wear.
