And what if it doesn't sell for half off? Government enforced price controls are disastrous. What's next? Government forcing consumers to buy the clothing at 50% off? Newsflash: forcing people is bad, and governments often don't know better than you on a variety of issues especially about how to best spend your hard earned money.

Comment EU leader are totally obsessed with CO2 emissions (Score 0) 111

EU leaders are doing everything they can to prevent the planet from getting greener faster. They have such disdain for that other necessary plant foot that isn't hydrating. They also spread climate alarmism FUD, and then exploit people's ignorance in order to manipulate them into giving up some of their precious freedom and to happily pay carbon taxes, thereby empowering the very state that oppresses them.

Comment How was academic achievement measured? (Score 4, Informative) 48

Electing an "equity focused board member" probably means changing (dumbing down) curriculum and/or grading scales in order to achieve equal outcomes. In other words, by inflating grades without achieving any improvement in actual learning of useful information. This happened in my children's school district when a DEI hire was put in as Superintendent. He then hired even more DEIs to replace far more compentent retirees. The result was that over 10 years there was a drastic decline in academic achievement as measured by national standardized tests. I would be curious to see how IQ correlates rather than test scores or GPA that are vulnerable to grade inflation and equal outcome based policies that are pursued by bleeding heart ideologues.

Ummm. The problem is you won't know you will see two men French kiss until they actually do, and by then its already too late. Your only choice is to stop looking AFTER you've already seen them start kissing. Most straight men do find homosexual acts between men gross. Anytime I see it in a film or a show I stop watching it permanently.

The approach in the case you mentioned is for the DOJ to break up the duopoly/monopoly so that free market competition can work its magic. The incorrect approach is to essentially socialize the market by having the government provide the service or subsidize the service or fix prices.
