Additionally, the forum gets a "bounty" for various offers at Amazon.com. For instance, if you sign up for a 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, the forum will earn $3.

      they would have made their million, and called it quits. There is no way the would have continued to work almost for free for the federal government and ever employed as many people as they did or changed the world.

      Thing about it is not only have they provided a good or service that has changed the world and benefited everyone, they also employed millions of Americans collectively. Both of those things together do more for society then donating 25 billion dollars in a one time charity donation.

      • Generally they weren't taxed at that rate in the past, the effective tax rate was much, much lower.

            • Trump had a (relatively) decent 2018 but his disapproval numbers are rapidly approaching the worst of his Presidency (His lowest point was December 2017 when he hit around 57% disapproval). What's more, it's easy to trace the start of his recent decline to the shutdown.

              FiveThirtyEight is tracking Donald Trump’s approval ratings throughout his presidency.

                  • W wanted to privatize Social Security. She boxed him in by refusing to entertain any legislation that threatened to change SS in any way and he was forced to abandon his legislative promises on SS.

                    People laugh at W for being stupid. We need to rethink the definition of stupid presidents and the ones that are senselessly uncaring about the people they govern.
                    Nobody was laughing, that would have been a disaster (for real). Worst President in my lifetime

                        • OK free markets but no alcohol on Sundays and must purchase Israeli imports and this thing and that thing. Everybody is all about freedom -- for themselves, at least.

                            • Some like to present bullshit numbers whilst demanding the opposite from others in political discourse. Some of us even like to cheat their way to prominence in sport, and fantasize about their moral equivalence to those that do not stoop to such levels.

                              The system hasn't been exactly perfect. But it has produced Wingsfan and Wiz, on the other hand.
