    They did the only thing they could do. They sued.

    That was nine months ago and fuck all has progressed.  They should be screaming from every rooftop about this blatant attack on the Constitution, but that might cut into vacation time I guess.

    My wife was in a panic over this.  

    Seems she ordered some dog chew toys from Amazon and then saw the news crawl stating the Amazon was burning and she desperately states she hoped the chew toys shipped out prior to Amazon catching on fire.  

    True story.  

    There’s another thread for this.  You know what you must do.

  3. Been a while since the white devil Soros sent a caravan our way.  I guess the troops are still lined up at the border to protect us from the marauding hordes?

    Oh good, he’s up past midnight on a weekend. 

     

    He used the national emergency to put troops on the border and the House dems did fuck all about that, so why wouldn’t this work as well?

    From the linked article above regarding We Work:

    The founder personally locked up some of the trademarks for himself, and then sold them back to the company?  Very shady since presumably he's involved, at some level, of the decision to purchase the trademarks from himself. Possibly he recused himself from that decision but come on. I guess Gates screwed up not buying the name Microsoft for himself and then leasing it back to his own company.  [roll eyes]

    I also read that if the founder dies, his wife basically has the power to choose the succeeding CEO but apparently there are some restrictions and/or scenarios that impact the decision. Why should a CEO spouse be involved in deciding the company future given the CEO's death? I understand that they might have voting power based on their new found shares but it shouldn't be because they're married to the CEO.

    If founders wants to control their company so badly, why not keep it private. I realize the answer is that they and their investors want to get paid, and the cash flow and less-than-zero profits ain't going to pay them. I don't get why investors should want to get involved with companies that organize that appear to have questionable values. Is the CEO promising to behave more ethically in the future?

    I wish I could short the hell out of this scam.

    The truth is that there is probably someone who is telling him when to tweet this shit and then buying for him when the market tanks. It recovers a few days later and then they sell. Rinse and repeat. Probably making millions. 

    I guess there’s nothing stopping all of us from doing the same. 

     

  7. that is pretty naive.

    from the article:
    ""A new analysis by Americans for Tax Fairness estimates that Charles Koch and David Koch and/or Koch Industries could save between $1 billion and $1.4 billion combined in income taxes each year from the Trump tax law
    The Koch groups spent over $20 million promoting the tax bill that ultimately became law, according to a fact sheet they provided to the Wall Street Journal.
    That’s not a bad return on investment: what’s $20 million when you’re looking at a billion or more in tax breaks?"

    They spent a hell of a lot of money on more than this one tax bill.
