This isn’t really true. First of all, it’s a laughable to call Skyler the “conscience of the show.” Second, she exists to diametrically oppose the premise, fans are allowed to not like that.

Dude, you tried to throw a strawman argument at the world with a level of self-righteousness that I can only describe as “law enforcement mental health check-worthy.” You got cooked accordingly, now you’re name calling for no reason. It’s okay, you can stop now.

No, she’s going to be lean and fit… as if she’s living in a hunter gatherer society. Here she is in the first game. People are a little annoyed about the chubby-cheeked body positivity of the second game. It’s like she spent a year eating chips and sweets on a college campus.

It’s worse than that.
Phil Knight WENT TO OREGON. He is a great example of an alumnus, who owes a significant amount of his success to his school, coming back to reinvest in it.
Washington is just begging a random billionaire, with no connection to the school, for a handout.

Or we could raise taxes on the wealthy and lower them on the middle class. One of these options doesn’t crash the economy and lets us keep the status of “developed country” that we keep inappropriately taking for granted.

Except that Redbox actually has a streaming media presence and was not horribly positioned to make the transition to digital rentals. I imagine there’s some additional mismanagement and maybe hedgefund fuckery afoot as well. $1b debt feels like some overleveraged nonsense.

Sounds like the ships need federal overseers and the people making money from fishing are required to pay them… kind of like when you pay the DMV for YOUR license. Also, I promise the fee was within the bounds set by the authorizing statute. So what is the actual problem?

Then I would assume you support higher taxes on the rich. Because getting rid of the income cap on the payroll tax actually keeps the program solvent past the 60 year window of concern… If you have any interest in actually crunching the numbers.

someone is advocating for policies you disagree with to be implemented where you live. In that instance, they say “why don’t you go live in [country X] where they have that policy and see what it’s like.” This is just psychotically wishing people dead for disagreeing with you.
