With luck, he'll be out Sunday and Mich St will be able to go in and steal a win @purdue.

There can be no compromise other than toward free market principles.
the messiah has been taught by alinsky the art of the negotiation in "social change." Ask for more than you can get, then work your way back. This gives you progress toward your ultimate goal. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Soon, you have what you want. That's how it must be done in a republic, because revolutions create backlash and a reduced ability to affect change.

« on: February 25, 2010, 08:18:34 AM »QuoteThe Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Pretty sure that makes any form of income taxation part of the constitution, even if it was added later. But that is why the founders made it possible to ammend the constitution, so that the government could change with the times and adjust to different needs.
It's not like the extra amount taxed on the highest incomes is going to break the bank of anyone in that tax bracket. But really, I'm glad you like rich people and want to help them out so much.
Tell you what, I want you to go down the street and turn in your resume to the local welfare queen next time you're looking for a job. See how far that gets you.
How is treating the rich as an unpopular minority any more correct than any other group?
Its not that we love the rich, its because we are looking for "fairness" and equal treatment by the government. As a bonus, it would be good for the economy.

Thought I might start when I saw Beas on, but no, still don't really care. Check the boxscore to see how he's doing and that's about it.

Cuse is not far behind purdue in votes, so they may fall back to 4. Of course cuse also plays Nova Saturday. Could really use Duke losing @Vigina or @MD. I think beating ku would allow us to pass them, anyway, though.

Will likely end the regular season in 7th. If postseason counts, he could make a serious drive to C-Mart yet this season depending on how deep we go in both tourneys.

« on: February 23, 2010, 09:18:52 PM »I still don't understand Beck's position. Learn from the Past? WTF? Today is nothing like the 20's/30's.
I guess you're supposed to learn from the past after the depression, not before. I mean, jfc, this isn't that hard….congress made/forced/allowed (however you want to phrase it) banks to lend money (over the course of two administrations) and then eased or allowed for banks to structure themselves and their transactions in ways that allowed them to maintain their risk based capital even though they were taking on more risk, so wtf did they expect banks to do? not make money? So the banks go out and give crap loads of money out...those loans are then securitized and packaged in the market allowing access to basically the entire market....so effectively, you've packaged your risky assests under the guise of highly rated securities.....so then when growth doesn't meet the level of risk taken, the sh*t hits the fan....and guess what? since everyone now bought into those sh*tty assets in various ways, they've now got to meet their own obligations, whether it be credit swaps or whether it be capital ratios...so they then have to sell their assets...all the while people are defaulting on their loans, causing those "non risky" securitized assets to fail and the companies that hold those assets to write them down...affecting their own books...causing people to lose their job...creating a nice little cycle of sh*t......so is that the lesson?
You forgot the part about the government forcing banks to give loans to people that shouldn't get loans/can't afford them. The lesson we should have all learned in the past is that there are some things gov't should keep their noses out of. This basic lesson has been retaught throughout the past 100 years in this country and people just don't learn.

Kansas State Football / Re: LT released!
« on: February 22, 2010, 10:47:34 PM »crazy how short runs are in the NFL....take it in.
LT has been a dominant back for much longer than 90+% of NFL careers. Except for this year, had been a top 4 fantasy pick since 2002. Look at guys like lj, any broncos RB from several years ago, pretty much any of them and they're only top tier for 2, 3, maybe 4 years.
