The American Democratic party would be considered centrist in most other countries.

Kid should be a full time starter in Rochester this year, not competing to play on the worst team in the league.

Yeah, if you actually follow the article to the piece it is sourced from, Dean Baker argues that wealth inequality makes a minimum wage based on production impossible. Executives earn much more than they produce, but they have no incentive to reduce their own income. As executive pay climbed, to avoid out of control inflation, the government took power away from the workers. Unions were weakened through the Taft-Harley act and Reagan's firing of the air traffic controllers, for example.

We need labor policies that support the workers, and a higher minimum wage is just one small part of those policies.

They still have basic needs. They'll rent an apartment in a complex owned by a rich developer, because they can't afford a house. They'll drive a gas car because they can't afford electric. They'll shop at Wal-Mart and eat at McDonald's because those are the cheapest options. I think there's an argument that lower minimum wage stifles competition and makes it easier for the 1% to maintain control.

I have no doubt she'll easily be able to spin this into a positive. "The GOVERNOR (D) changed the rules to try to force me out of Congress! Are we gonna let him get away with it!?"

They way he wrote it is very confusing, but I think it is the same girl. Imagine her relief when he said, "Oh, my mistake," and walked away (finally!), only to continue to harass her online.

It's too late for a Republican to get on the ballot. It should be too late for Byron to get on the ballot.

My opinion, he’s too involved. He took over a bad team and wanted to turn them into a contender immediately. He let Tim Murray trade away all of our draft picks for underwhelming returns and (pure speculation) Pat Lafontaine told him to be patient and was ignored, so Pat quit.

The Bills are the more profitable business for Terry Pegula, but the Sabres are the team he grew up rooting for.

Tom Brady after getting hit in the knee: "It is the responsibility of my opponent to protect me!"

I don't think it's that they don't care, just that it's really hard to throw a ball where your receiver can catch it, get a first down, and he won't get blasted. The fact that Brady wins without exposing his receivers just sets him on a totally different level.

I think it will be great for Jack to be on a team that's expected to compete for the gold medal, and be in a room where he's not the leader. If he's healthy he can sell himself as well. I think it would be smart of the Sabres to let him get the surgery now and wait until after the Olympics to trade him.

When do we expect the next mini set, first week of October? Odds that will break wild again?

This is becoming classic Blizzard strategy (and digital card game strategy for other companies too):

1. Hype something forever with pre-announcement announcements.

2. When the product is finally revealed, it's not at all what we expected, and it's super expensive.

3. In a few weeks they will release an "apology" that communication wasn't better. They think this is a great new mode and they want everyone to experience it, so they're giving 10 packs + 1 random legendary mercenary to everyone who logs in from October 12th-31st.

At this point it's obvious they've done their market research and determined this is the best way to maximize profit with minimal dev hours.

If Cam buys in and mentors the new guy while encouraging the rest of the team to support the rookie, it could be a great situation.

But yeah, if he still wants to start (which he rightfully should), it could get ugly.

I had this done at immediate care when I didn't have a primary doctor.

Whales will fund the mode if Blizzard can draw in enough F2P players to hype it up. They don't want to just play against other whales.

Have they announced yet what the Warlock changes will be? Referencing this post by Alec: https://twitter.com/GW_Alec/status/1430579587172294657

Well considering he was HUMILIATED at the grocery store when his debit card was declined, I'm guessing he can't get approved for any credit cards with all the shady stuff he's been up to.

Other games usually patch late on IOS because of Apple's approval process. Seems like Riot is probably trying to get patches in early on IOS to avoid this, but they drop too early...

Where the hell do you think all that money comes from? You're paying $150 for a seat in the nosebleeds, $40 for parking, $19 bucks for a beer, AND they're gonna raise your taxes.

You gotta look at it like an agent. VGK don't have any cap space to pay a first round pick. Send him to Buffalo, watch the team suck for 3 years, then say, "Look, you traded Jack Eichel for my son. You must think he's worth a lot, and you need a star."

If he is still injured, either insurance will pay the majority of his contract, or he'll be forced to get the surgery the team doctors recommend. If he refuses the recommended surgery they'll suspend him without pay.

I think Brisson is a guy who obviously knows every GM in the league, he understands the situation and he will work with the Sabres to get a trade that Eichel and the team can be happy with.

Jack's previous agent's strategy seemed to be going to the press and whining that he's still injured, which is a strange way to get traded.

Magic introduced Standard in 1995 and it took them until 2006 to come up with Legacy.

Granted, Blizzard is not inventing the wheel here, so they should recognize the need for more balance in their eternal formats and be able to act quicker.
