Have you ever had to try to fire a black person from a job?

It is a very dubious task. You have to document everything extraordinarily well and go well beyond normal reasons for termination.

I'm black and I've been fired so it must not be that hard. All I did was have poor sales for 3 quarters.

If you were white you'd have been gone after 2 if not 1 quarter.

You're saying you had poor sales for 9 months, IOW 3 quarters.

Each company is different, but I don't know many people that get more than 2 or 3 months of shitty sales unless they have years of high sales before that to back it up.

Poor sales for 3 quarters, you were working on charity for a while my friend.

So does everyone, it's called interest.

Paying social security is giving the government money on your income which will be paid back to you with interest over your later years in life.

 

[NoDrama]

So does everyone, it's called interest.

Currently that interest is Negative for 90% of Americans. Chesus doesn't get the fact that when you put that dollar into SS, that dollar would buy you a gallon of gas or 3 loafs of bread, when you go to collect that money the $3 you get back out for each $1 you put in looks like an amazing deal, except now the same bread cost $3 a loaf and gas is $4 a gallon. All you really did was lose money.

You could have made plenty of money when interest rates were normalized in the past, but now with rates under 4% and inflation on many things exceeding that rate, its a losing proposition for most Americans.

Only about 20% of us have more than $25,000 put away in any form of retirement, in other words, 80% of Americans will rely on the other 20%'s retirement funds to also fund their own retirement.

If interest rates were allowed to rise, the interest alone on the debt we already have will consume more than all the taxes taken in yearly, resulting in nothing more than a default on debt and the biggest crash ever will happen overnight. If we keep interest rates low, we can get the populace to fund the governments largesse for quite a while longer, keep borrowing from the future until there is no future and the system crashes, but over a much longer period of time, from whence recovery will also take a number of decades too. All of the TBTF banks will eventually fail no matter what, when confidence in the dollar wavers as it has been for last 20 years it becomes like a snowball rolling down a hill. Gaining momentum and growing ever larger as it crushes everything in its path while gaining strength from that process until in the end nothing is left standing. This is our future and like all bankruptcy, there are two ways it happens, gradually then suddenly.

A day of reckoning will come when the choice to either shred the US Constitution and start over under Sheep(tyranny)skin or to elect someone under the premise that all the spending has to stop and to accept the inevitable short term suffering just like we did during WW2 with rationing and victory gardens.

The idea that an entire economy can be managed correctly by tampering with interest rates and creating more or less of the supply of bits of paper and digital equivalents is not proper reasoning. Systems such as those are gamed by those in the power structures of the world. A system that cannot be so easily manipulated by fiat is in order.

This amount surpasses the more than $215,000 raised in support of the Michael Brown Memorial Fund. According to the page, which was set up by Brown family lawyer Benjamin Crump, "the funds will assist his family with costs that they will acquire as they seek justice on Michael's behalf."

Set up by the lawyer to pay himself!!!!

Well, I was there for 6 years so I earned the benefit of the doubt.

Wait a second, at the absolute worst 85% of black people were gainfully employed but you say we're lazy?

Sounds like someone has a huge boner for Mr. Cheesus.

KKK raising money for Ferguson police officer

So what asshole? Al Sharpton is on the Brown family's side. And he's more racist than the KKK.

 

[Johnwhipshisboehner]

Nothing left to say, so attack Mr. Sharpton? That is especially confusing. Someone in your family must be black. Why do you insist on turning this into something racial. You are sort of the worst type of person.

i'm gonna light some candles and whip my boehner real hard!

How ironic coming from a holocaust denier.

And you're a fucking asshole who has no real perspective on life.

Lighten up a bit man (or woman, or both, or neither, whatever you are).

 

[UncleBuck]

And you're a fucking asshole who has no real perspective on life.

yes, let's talk perspective.

the KKK lynched over 4000 blacks.

since al sharpton, in your racist opinion, is worse than the KKK, can you show me the 4001+ people that al sharpton has lynched?

 

[H.M. Murdoch]

Buck, I was joking with a fellow asshole...

I despise the KKK. The KKK killed countless blacks for no good reason...I know.

But Al Sharpton is no friend of the black man, IMHO. He stirs up, instead of bringing peace. He's out for himself. And only himself.

 

[H.M. Murdoch]

And more to the point Buck. More to the REAL point.

As an older white man (51 years old) who grew up in 1960's Alabama, who remembers the march on Selma, and the fire hoses against blacks in the streets of Birmingham, and "White Only" water fountains in Sears stores, and the busing of blacks to "white" schools, and countless injustices toward blacks, some by my own mother and father...

I know racism existed and exists...but am I to blame for the shit?

Hell no. And I won't put up with being blamed for it either. Not by you, nor Al, nor Jesse, nor B. Hussein O.

 

[H.M. Murdoch]

And the fucking whites and fucking blacks had better SOON learn to accept and compliment one another, and band together for the good ol' USA...because our real enemies aren't one another...

Our real enemies are illegal immigrants, and the Muslim countries who hate us.

 

[UncleBuck]

yep, he's racist alright.
