Re: Team Trump v/s Everyone

I agree that it's probably unlikely that they'll go after other folks like they did with Trump - let's face it, they had never gone after someone like this before anyway. With that said, Trump probably is a criminal for many other things, but in this case, everyone entered into these agreements wit...

Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread

Of course inflation is always present. But the "good" inflation is the one that's relatively low (2-3%) and steady over a long period of time. Then it's predictable and reliable and consumers and businesses expect it. When you open the floodgates of government spending just because you wa...

Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread

I don't see the comparison with FDR being a good one. With FDR there was a real, systematic failure of the economy prior to him taking office. And in reality, nothing he did really fixed any of that and we needed a world war to basically reset the table and the economy. Sure some of his things were...

Re: What's a SCOTUS to do?

If this thing isn't 9-0 I would be a little surprised. And even if it's not 9-0, I doubt there are actually dissents, more like concurring opinions, maybe even multiple ones. Even all 3 liberal justices were signaling significant skepticism with Colorado's position on this.

Of course, because there isn't one. Doesn't change the fact that it's still a pretty long chain, going back to at least the 1880's, if not earlier.
Which brings us full circle to my comment that there isn't a solution
We were in agreement with that - I posted that just prior to yours.
