She’s looking pretty haggard. Figuring out how to pay back $20 million with below average intelligence and no job skills is no joke.BiggDick wrote: ↑Thu Nov 28, 2024 1:17 pm "virtuous/kind ultra rich person" is an oxymoron.
and, yeah, sure, there's evil poor people too. But evilness is not an inherent feature of being poor.
saying some rich people are not evil is like saying some fat people are not gluttonous.
The only way you can get less fat is by addressing the gluttony.
now, come on you guys, it's Thanksgiving. Let's just try to enjoy the holiday. It would simply be inappropriate to chug mulled wine and rant politics around the dinner table.
...jk LOL that's like exactly what Thanksgiving is for!
As soon as the fam gets a round of mulled wine in em imma get up on my soapbox and spew the Qusdahl propaganda so hard my drunk auntie across the table will be looking at me like this:

No, you aren’t.
You constantly use a giant highlighter to point out what a miserable person you are.
Your inevitable response is expected.

No, it's not an oxymoron - to me - but I understand how and why it is to others when thinking about evil rich people.
Call me what you will but I consider myself to be extremely fortunate to have been surrounded by "virtuous/kind ultra rich people" in my life. The evil ones, not so much. Yeah - fuck 'em.
To me, "evilness is not an inherent feature" of being rich. But it can be.
Gutterism 201.
Maybe the best way to put it is, there's a very strong correlation between rich people and evil.
The more wealth one hoards, the more evil one becomes - or just shows oneself as having been all along.

tho I am as critical of Kamala as anyone, even I think that take is a bit much.
if you REALLY wanna be outraged - don't blame her. Blame the echo chamber of self-serving grifters and corporate clowns who made her happen.

Blame whoever you like, but she has the distinction of replacing Michael Dukakis as the worst Dim candidate of my lifetime. Yay?

Sure, that's true with some/many/most "rich people" but it's absolutely 100% false with others.BiggDick wrote: ↑Fri Nov 29, 2024 5:40 pmthanks...I enjoy the gutterisms lol.RainbowsandUnicorns wrote: ↑Thu Nov 28, 2024 1:36 pm

yea, don't' disagree.
But pretty sure he still counts as among that echo chamber.
now, whether he's more of a self-serving grifter and/or a corporate clown specifically, I dunno.

A Delaware judge has again rejected Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk’s multi-billion dollar pay package for a second time, leaving the company uncertain as to how to adequately compensate their CEO for a 1,500% share price gain over the last 5 years. Musk’s attorneys attempted to reverse McCormick’s original decision after shareholders approved the figure this past June.
Judge Kathaleen McCormick declined to restore Musk’s $56B compensation and ordered the company to pay $345M in fees to the plaintiffs’ attorneys. In her decision, McCormick said the approval process lacked transparency, and that the Tesla (TSLA) board was “beholden” to Musk.
“Even if a stockholder vote could have a ratifying effect, it could not do so here,” McCormick said in her decision.
Nevertheless, the board argued that any new package would be more expensive as it would include 303M Tesla stock options awarded at a much higher price.
Tesla (TSLA) shares dipped 1.3% in after-hours trading following the news.
