Gotta love Obama, Biden, and HRC. They care soooo much for the working class. If you work overtime you should earn overtime! Snort.
from WSJ today:
"Vice President Joe Biden all but conceded this point this week by suggesting that workers would benefit if their hours are scaled back since they would have more time with family."
"The National Federation of Independent Business notes that the Labor Department’s analysis even forecasts that the average pay rate of a newly covered salaried worker will decline by about 5.3% in 2017."

Wow. Looked at the Atlantic article about the upcoming remake of Ghostbusters and then looked at the comments.
Seems everyone is upset about people supposedly not liking the sex flip on the characters but the comments led me to believe it's not that.
I had to agree that a remake of Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, or the Breakfast Club are a no go in my mind. Just can not go there. A remake of the original Star Trek or Bo's 10? Nope.
I'm reminded of a quote from Henry de Montherlant:
Stupidity does not consist in being without ideas. Such stupidity would be the sweet, blissful stupidity of animals, molluscs and the
gods. Human Stupidity consists in having lots of ideas, but stupid ones.
Besides, I thought we were supposed to believe accusers? anything else was to support a rape culture. Am I mistaken?

This is another reason people hate feminism/ist
Why can the only reason you dont like the new Ghostbusters be that you're a sexist?
Why cant it be the fact that Hemsworth is a mimbo when Annie Potts, while not having that much screen time wasnt hired as eye candy.
Why cant it be that the blond Egon replacement has a fetish for making her gadgets pseudo sex toys, or the Ray replacement is a soft spoken wall flower?
Maybe it the confusion of claiming its a reboot when the trailer makes it look like a sequel and people are wondering why they have to reinvent 35 year old 80's technology.
Maybe its the plasma knuckles? What the point in needlessly beating a ghost?
Could be a number of things, but no, lets all pretend sexism can be the only reason.

Of course, CBS intends to show another Star Trek next year online. I suspect it'll die of political correctness. Too easy to offend the tender today.
