I agree with this - I think that professional jurors should have a an Associates degree in criminal justice and/or paralegal. They should get paid a fair wage. They should have to travel so as to not become too cozy with prosecutors/defense lawyers and judges. You could have jurors that are a specialist in different types of crime which would make the lawyers have to work harder since they couldn’t just overwhelm the uneducated (in that area of the law). As you said it would get people that are wanting to participate to be part of it as well

not a concert but a place - CBGB. It would have been really cool to frequent and see a ton of amazing bands get their start.

Reno Police officer R. Jager, described in the filings as a rookie officer, arrived on scene and reviewed Killinger’s documentation. Killinger provided his driver’s license, a UPS payslip, and his vehicle registration. All documents matched his name and appearance.

Despite this, Jager accused Killinger of using fraudulent identification and suggested he had a connection inside the DMV to fabricate documents. In his police report, Jager claimed Killinger had “conflicting identification” and said he “lacked satisfactory evidence” to confirm his identity.

I think this cop has watched too many CBS police dramas. And I think this cop is stupid.

allowing more immigration from the multitude of places on this globe

But then the immigrants will take all the jobs and also not work and take all the money from citizens.

Do you even FOX bro?

The Treasury could have bought up mortgage notes instead, at pennies on the dollar, and started collecting interest on the debt just like the private banks had. Then they could have renegotiated mortgages of underwater homes at lower interest rates, while the private sector lenders filed for bankruptcy. That would have drastically reduced the foreclosure rate and dumped the material cost of the financial crisis on stock and bond holders of these private companies.

I’m curious how this action would have changed the last 20 years of politics? Those in power during that time did a shit job of really explaining why the banks got the money and not the homeowner. I think this really exposed who the federal politicians were representing, and it wasn’t the everyday voters. I think that anger and sense of betrayal that the American people were told to “kick rocks.” while the actual criminals got a bailout of our money still sits in with of most of the population.

That entirely depends on your tolerance level for debt, lots and lots of debt.

or maybe between 0 and 1. that way it would be easier to see if the topic that I’ve decided is super interesting and won’t shut up about is interesting to the to the other person as well. If I start seeing the number dropping quickly, time to change topics or just walk away.

when you hit about 45, your mental age is currentAge-20 years-ish but doing an activity associated with mental age can come with some surprising consequences, mostly unhappy surprises at that. But as you continue to age you start accepting who are and start making less stupid choices that are associated with how you mentally feel.

One of my favorite books and unfortunately lots of the story still is relevant today.

While I don’t think this is a really big thought in the minds of CEO of large corporations but by tying healthcare to work it does keep potential competition from growing in the marketplace. More difficult/impossible to start your own competing produce/service without healthcare.

The Riddick Chronicles. Bad acting, bad CGI, Simple stupid inconsistent plot, one dimensional characters. perfect bad sci-fi.

“VXFLEX! a new full body workout!” Get the body to die for!

couldn’t resist that stupid joke.

This is shit, yet their banning people has always been inconsistent and unpredictable without knowing why. I got banned 3 years ago with absolutely no explanation why - just “your banned”. When I did the auto-appeal I just got a response “sorry, your banned.” Never a word as to why so fuck Reddit.

There’s always the classic

“Alcohol the cause of, and solution to, all life’s problems”

The problem with roundabouts in the States is that a large percentage of drivers were never taught how to navigate a roundabout we were just given them with an implied “you’ll figure it out.”

we are all just sentient cans of baked beans

I have a feeling you would have more fun in Paris than other places
