Wat je zegt ben jezelf, met je kop door de helft Lost my Holmgang, was deported from Norway.

That is the reason I never call them liberals.

I have other terms:

1. Racists.

2. Progressives.

3. Thieves.

4. Slavers.

Another way of thinking about is that the word "populist" is applied to leaders one doesn't like. Both Chavez and Trump are assigned the epithet "populist" but Chavez raided businesses and supported big government, where Trump tried to protect business and reduce government. Yet both are "populists" because the center left hates them (for different reasons - presumably, Chavez is hated by the US left for making the ultimate result of left wing policies so readily apparent)

I guess drug use among the daycare staff members was not a victimless crime in this case.

Perhaps the Singapore approach to drugs sale and posession yields better results?

Should NY prosecutors be prosecuted if it was found they had previously let this daycare's staff off drug crimes?

Agree. What's the amount of bail money needed to make sure a millionaire shows up?

A hell of a lot more than $75K.

I always thought the appropriate bail amount is one where forfeiting the money is a worse penalty than getting convicted of the crime, so in a sense, the bail should be set to the level where prosecution is indifferent to whether the accused shows up.

I am against bail, I am for speedy trials.

"on top of already high prices you can't make this shit"

What do you mean?

It is surprising that oil companies would not bid for an oil lease without bank financing, they should be properly capitalized, but perhaps financing a drilling project is a self defense against it getting cancelled when a democrat president takes the stage, assuming the banks own the democrats, and cancelling the project in the middle would result in default.

That was the problem with Arthur C Clarke and also Wilbur Smith, no writer could live up to the quality of their works. The last books bearing their names before they kicked the bucket stunk.

True, and there is some cost involved in carrying excess fuel, but the time of 140 passengers also has some value.

We actually paid for a service.

But I can see that with a range of 3400 nm, totally full tanks for a 850 nautical mile trip is excessive.
