Soldiers are required to have a high school diploma.

1. If your analogy was the case, nothing would be worth money.
2. Actually, this guy thought he would lose money. But once the minimum wage went up, businesses started paying their workers more, and the workers could finally afford an occasional night out. They went to this guy’s restaurant, and he made more money and opened another five, all with new workers.Bottom line is, a $15 minimum wage works for everyone.
A $15 dollar minimum wage drives up the economy.
Poor people need more money, and when they get it, they’re not saving it for a yacht. It goes back into circulation, and more money gets spent. The money goes right back to the employer from many people, and they can afford to pay their workers.
Seattle has a $14 minimum wage. Some guy had a restaurant. When they passed a bill for the $15 minimum wage, he thought he would lose money. Turns out he opened another five.
When you share the wealth, it’s good for everyone.
@coffeeaddict, He wasn’t married. His father was also Barack Obama.
The Fighting Sefardi is correct, if you change around Laurel and Yanny. It’s Yanny, period!
On April 22, Trump tweeted:
“Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd of Fake News NBC just stated that we have given up so much in our negotiations with North Korea, and they have given up nothing. Wow, we haven’t given up anything & they have agreed to denuclearization (so great for World), site closure, & no more testing!”.“Sleepy eyes” is an anti-Semitic term. Chuck Todd is Jewish. Such an oheiv yisrael…
Hurricane Harvey never happened, it just was a screen prop to film a movie about climate change.
People seem to have misunderstood what I wrote earlier. If a kosher restaurant is willing to pay for Muslim supervision, I don’t see any reason that they shouldn’t advertise that they are halal, as well as kosher. I’m not so familiar with the laws of halal, but assuming no part of halal contradicts kosher, they can very well serve both Jewish and Muslim clients.
Did anyone read what I wrote before (https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/climate-change/#post-1503761)? What was written after it doesn’t stand if you consider it.
Joseph, let me give you an analogy.
Suppose you go to a doctor, and he tells you that you need to fix your diet. You decide to seek a second opinion, so you go to another doctor. He tells you the same thing. You go to doctor after doctor, until the 98th doctor tells you, “These doctors are in the pockets of the health food companies, no need to change your diet, just eat what you want!”
Who will you trust?It’s not stealing. But it’s not the most honest thing to do.
How did this thread get reawakened from 2010?
When Hashem took Adam through the world, he showed him everything, and then told him to take good care of it, not to destroy it. This shows that humans have the capability to destroy something, and should do their best to preserve the environment. (As heard from R’ Mordechai Becher)
Hence, the natural selection should be B.There’s nothing wrong with suggesting it. There’s something wrong with telling him to date her.
Necause it wasn’t a left-wing shooting. This woman was a left-wing person. But she did not have a political motive.
She shot up the place because they removed some of her videos, and put age restrictions on them. This had nothing to do with politics.So drink chalav stam.
If it’s to big to fail, it’s too big to exist. Amazon is too big to fail. If it fails, the economy comes down with it. It needs to be downsized.
What I meant is that if a kosher restaurant meets the laws of halal, there is no reason they shouldn’t advertise for it and make more money through Muslim customers.
OK, so a Muslim won’t trust them. But as long as teh restaurant keeps the halal rules, there is no reason it shouldn’t advertise as halal and have Muslim clientele.
Amazon has gotten too big. If it went under, 566,000 employees would lose their job. It would very likely lead to an economic recession.
Why not?
I agree with Midwest2. Had I been living in the 1950s, I would probably be mixed between the two parties.
As Eisenhower once said, “Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment, insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things. Their number is negligible, and they are stupid.”
Seeing what’s going on in Washington these days, it seems his prediction is coming true.
Health, do you realize how little sense you make?
Health:
First of all, the House Intelligence committee is run by Repugs.
Second of all, there are new bombshells coming weekly.
And third of all, if they didn’t interview 100+ witnesses that they were supposed to, how can you say it’s a fair investigation?!They generally don’t name things after people who are still alive.
Joseph, in English, that’s a majority. She got more votes than any other candidate.
RebYidd23, many people voted for a third party candidate. I remember Election Night, when Evan McMullin had a chance of winning Illinois. Stein got 1.2 million votes, and Johnson got about 3 million. So no, she won the popular vote.@RebYidd23, they did. There’s a reason that she won the popular vote by 3 million.
@AviK, I know. But you also wrote that Lincoln died. That gives the implication that their popularity had something to do with their death. The uninformed would assume that FDR was killed.
I’m not a fan of Clinton. But she doesn’t fall so often, and if it happened two times on one staircase, either she was tired, ill, or the problem was the staircase.
@Milhouse, just because Faux News doesn’t report it doesn’t mean it’s false. And it’s not like it’s even being done undercover. I will gladly explain each one in detail, if you’re interested.
Tillerson calls Trump a moron, and is not fired. Tillerson says something against Russia, and is fired. Putin is clearly pulling the strings.
Joseph, why are you so anxious to live in a dictatorship? I’ll gladly pay for your one way ticket to Russia.
AviK, FDR died naturally, not killed.
And there’s no shortage of what to impeach over. The Constitution says “high crimes and misdeameanors”. Congress can decide what a misdemeanor is, which means that they can be impeached for blowing their nose on the wrong side of the street.
Anyway, there’s no shortage. From refusing to implement Russian sanctions, to signing executive orders against religious liberty, to accepting money from foreign governments by making foreign dignitaries stay in Trump Hotel rather than Blair House, to “very fine people”, to the comments against Haiti, to obstruction of justice, to Flynn’s violation of the Logan Act, to firing Comey once he was about to potentially be exposed,to refusing to divest from his businesses, to undermining freedom of the press, and much more which is too much to list right now.@Health, the neo-Nazis came first. The entire rally was organized by Richard Spencer (if you don’t know who that is, there’s nothing to talk about).
And you misunderstood what me and my fellow commenters were saying. Not everyone at that rally were neo-Nazis. But someone who demonstrates with them, while s/he might not be a neo-Nazi, is not a fine person at all.
And @MTAB is absolutely right. It’s increasingly common to have anti-Semites supporting the state of Israel. Richard Spencer, for example, openly supports Israel. There are two reasons that that can happen:
1. Many of these white supremacists believe that Jews should be in their own land, quarantined away from the world.
2. It says in the Bible that the redeemer will come once all the Jews live in the land of Israel.So no, it’s actually not so uncommon to find an anti-Semitic supporter of Israel.
Where do I even start?
He was the first President since Eisenhower without any major scandals, a path to healthcare, bringing the economy back up from the Great Recession of 2008, creating DACA, bringing respect to this country, adding consumer protection regulations, making a deal with Iran, brought an end to al-Qaeda, killing bin-Laden & Qadaffi, joined the Paris agreement, removed what was qualified as prison torture by the Geneva conventions, normalized relations with Cuba, created the Clean Power Plan, established net neutrality, passed the Fair Sentencing Act, passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, passed the Every Child Succeeds Act, gave healthy school lunches, expanded wilderness & watershed protection, cut veteran homelessness in half, reduced the threat from nuclear weapons, expanded overtime pay, crake down on many for-profit colleges, raised the GDP, cut the deficit, expanded the definition of hate crimes, reduced discrimation of former prisoners from potential employers, won major victories against housing & mortgage discrimination, expanded CHIP, improved food safety, & rebuilt the Gulf Coast after Katrina.
That’s what you call a failure?!
@Health, I finally got around to reading the article. The author, in most of it, was merely stating his own opinion. The problem is that if you look at most public polls, the majority do want the statues removed.
And you didn’t answer my question. As many of my fellow commenters wrote, not neccesarily was everyone there a neo-Nazi. If someone sees what’s happening by a neo-Nazi rally, and stays to protest with them, they’re not a fine person.
And I’m not saying that the local and state governments bear no responsibilty. He is right that it didn’t have to be the way it was.
I can tell that you’re merely grasping for straws by going off topic. Just answer the question:
ARE NEO-NAZIS VERY FINE PEOPLE?!
@Healthh, just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it a defamatory conspiracy. It’s all clearly on video.
@iacisrmma, @Health, I’m not a Communist. I’m a democratic (not Democratic) socialist.
And by the way, “illegal” is not a noun. People use it to dehumanize, because once you dehumanize, you can do whatever you want to them.
Air.
If you used your brains, you would vote for Sanders.
