Topic of the day: Two 2020 presidential candidates have voiced support of reparations. Thoughts?
Stupid. We shouldn't pay for what our ancestors did.
Exactly. Much more concise than my answer.

Either bad luck is kidding or simply a dolt. Either way I am very close to blocking him. His posts kill more brain cells than alcohol and pot combined. And $2bn in revenues is not a small business. WTF!?
It’s not 2b in revenue. It’s 2b in sales. Big difference.

Actual revenue last year was around 175m. Not sure what our payroll and overhead chunks out of that but the partner with the most equity took home just under $14m last year.
What? What was the top line? Sales/Revenue and what was the net income? $175mil is still not small. Lmao
The product we sell cost our customers $2b last year.

The revenue we made from those sales totaled $175m.

I think we’re technically still a small business.
I see so then $175mil is your top line and no you’re not a small business by any standard once you eclipse $75mil.
Sure ok. You’re the one that said I worked for a small business.
Your posts illustrate that you're out of touch with reality so I thought you were a disgruntled small business employee. You make like a mil a year, what the heck are you complaining about?
I’m not disgruntled at all. I love my company. I don’t make a million a year.

Honest question to - bad_luck, tang, taint, bob, wylie, the chuckster... No hidden agenda at all with this one. I am simply curious.

For those that believe in Climate Change theory, how do you take account of the impact with the massive increase in human population? Industrialization (Agricultural Revolution) is what has allowed for the population to explode. The simple fact that we are breeding like rabbits would be causing severe environmental pressure on its own.
Missed this.

I don’t think I understand the question though.
Not to get back into it but what I was driving at is this. How is the distinction made within Climate Change theory between the impact from unnecessary/decadent??? man-made pollution and human population pressure on the environment? Even if 8 billion people are the greenest folk in the universe, 8 billion will be producing more, than at any other time in recorded history, pollution, water usage, soil exhaustion, etc. than the 1 billion that were on the planet as recently as 1804, if for nothing else, out of sheer numbers. I don't know how else to describe it.
I don’t think there is a distinction. The idea isn’t that we need to somehow separate the “necessary damage” from the “unnecessary damage.” It’s that we need to take whatever steps we can to limit all damage.

That explains it. You see the partners taking home millions and you make less. So those darn rich partners should pay more.

Now I see it.

LOL. I don’t want to get into too much detail, but I’m technically a partner too. I just don’t have a big enough equity share to make a million a year.

Right. So they should pay more. I get it now and you're more or less a bookkeeper not a revenue generator. I finally understand your crazy thought process. Not on the weird trans rights but at least on the economy and such.

My ancestors weren't even in the US at the time. I don't get it. This is just a way to garner votes.
Except only 25% of the nation supports it, so I guess its a way to lose votes?

That's too bad. My statement was intentionally vague to give the respondent latitude but I was hoping for more.

How do we address the damaging effects of over-population on the environment? Why, by taking steps to limit the damage of population growth on the environment, of course! OK, thats for that, lol.

I'll just let it go...

send 19 Billion to the gas chamber!

or you could just try and limit the damage to the environment by populations

BIDEN/BETO 20
YESSIR
Two white men...

I wonder if the Democrats would consider a fusion of the center and left. Biden/Warren? At least the identity politics wing of the party gets a nod.
Ladies and Gentlemen...
