or is the company having to pay the fine?

The answer to that is no, she stated the penalty would be 1% of profits, so the companies will just figure out a way to make $0 profit so 1% fine on $0 doesn’t hurt them. (Just pay dividends /distributions and executive bonuses til the profits gone.)

When the .gov makes a regulatory rule/ tax code change, a major corporation has a $100million dollar salaried accounting staff whose job it is to figure out the code and exploit the holes in the policy as written to work around these minor setbacks.

Like back after the too big to fail bank bailouts, the .gov limited interchange/ transaction fees banks could charge on debit card transactions, as a token ‘see were cracking down on them’ gesture, and in turn banks across the board changed the terms of their accounts / almost eliminated/ added lots of hoops to jump through for ‘free checking’ accounts that there were more monthly fees to have the account open, passing that .gov driven expense on to the consumer so that their net bottom line never changed.

So,
Isn't the (D) party ALL about "renewable energy"? And how important it is to conserve energy? They SURE seem to be wasting a SHITLOAD of energy at the DNC right now, that hasn't even fucking started.

Companies already pay massive taxes on Profits… you think they would tank their stock prices over 1%

If you pay out big dividends, the shareholders are indifferent. Additionally If the fine is 1% per identified incidence of wage disparity that could be big amounts worth manipulating the accounting for.

In any event the point being, some dipshit politician who’s never been a productive member of society Cant out maneuver and outwit private industries ability to dissect legislation and work around it in the gray areas/ technicalities of the language of the bill.

We are now shocked that democrats lie about pretty much everything? :confused:





You ever meet a person who thinks they are way smarter than anybody in the room and when the talk they try and use really big words in their sentences to make them appear smarter in their minds but to everyone else they are neither pronouncing the words correctly or even coming close to using them in the correct context.... That is Harris to a fucking T.

And I swear all the word salad supposed words of wisdom she repeats over and over in interviews are what that stupid kunt thinks are "history making quotes that I'll be remembered for forever" type stuff when in reality it's fucking dumb and makes zero sense to anyone but her.

Legend in her own mind.....

But she doesn't use big words though. :laughing:
 
It’s unbelievable to think this skank went from being the worst liked VP ever, to be leading in polls and the MSN and DNC savior for the country. It really shows how much influence they have… it’s fucking sad that this pairing is what people believe is good for the USA. Not a Trump fan, but this whole thing is fucking nauseating and to think
between both parties, this is the best we can come up with.
My question is are people so stupid to think she is actually capable of playing the role?

See, **** did it again. She threw that last line of nonsensical "wisdom" in there and then looks around the room to see the (lack of) response on the people's faces to the word salad she spewed. She is such a fake it's not even funny.... :shaking:

The real tell is that they don’t define equal work. It is assumed that because you have the same job title you do the same work. Which maybe in an office setting is more likely to be true but anywhere else is a crock.
If you can hang with the other roofers hauling and nailing shingles, great, should be equal pay. If you constantly need help hauling squares up the ladder, you get paid for what you can do, not what Jose is doing.

She's just pandering and trying to mimic a southern black person. It's absolutely insulting.

I find it fascinating that it’s even a term used by our politicians.

“It has been observed by an honorable gentleman, that a pure democracy, if it were practicable, would be the most perfect government. Experience has proved, that no position in politics is more false than this. The ancient democracies, in which the people themselves deliberated, never possessed one feature of good government. Their very character was tyranny; their figure deformity.”

Alexander Hamilton, Speech to Congress, June 21, 1788

“The republican is the only form of government which is not eternally at open or secret war with the rights of mankind.”

Thomas Jefferson, Letter to William Hunter, 1790

And to show how far we’ve come from what was meant.

“A wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government.”

Thomas Jefferson, First Inaugural Address, March 4, 1801

Repeat a lie often enough it becomes truth. Establishment politicians never mean anything other than status quo when they talk about "Democracy". All this grandstanding in recent years about "our Democracy" and how it's under attack, at risk, whatever isn't anything other than them being terrified of losing power because generally people are more informed than they used to be and their methods of controlling information are nowhere near as effective as they used to be.

Used to be you could only hear about shit from a mainstream source such as radio or radio or tv. Now you can get an idea of what's going on from millions of different independent sources they could never hope to control unless they gained complete control over the internet. For every person listening to the nightly news you've got thousands reading twitter, listening to podcasts, or any number of other independent sources. Hell, broadly speaking, Irate is a better source of information than mainstream news anymore.
