Someone who founded PayPal, built a car company and sends rockets into space becoming a trillionaire isn’t weird. Public servants making $174k becoming millionaires is.
Change my mind.
Staring down the actual Declaration of Independence before stepping into the octagon as an underdog to beat the piss out of an undefeated fighter in front of the world is an extraordinary level of legendary
@Mrchambersblog@jonakin81@DrewHLive As a UFC this event could have been held in DC for the aesthetics and celebration of the 250th. But White House lawn was a bad choice, mostly because of little miserable people like yourself. It gives you something else to bitch about. Though, you’d find something anyway
@Microinteracti1@morris_wil41895@JackD_Vol We didn’t do that for someone to throw it back in your face on social media a century later. But if you’ve studied that war, he’s objectively correct. Ours and your military played a huge roll, yes. But, the US industrial complex was the absolute deciding factor.
@emzanotti Aside from the overall state of affairs of the economy. In what way does this cost the taxpayer money? As a UFC fan I’m annoyed with this move simply because current Americans aren’t mentally stable enough to not involve politics into every aspect of their life. Ruins the night
@yemurenthusiasm@felipe_serrano8@FCB_nenn I didn’t think about time zones. Also I understand there is a capacity difference , but Atlanta is in the eastern time zone, they can absolutely handle it, and personally from an aesthetic standpoint Mercedes Benz seems like a clear winner. Though I’m sure capacity is #1 priority
@yemurenthusiasm@felipe_serrano8@FCB_nenn I don’t think MetLife is a bad venue. As a non soccer fan, so there may be a legitimate reason, we have far far cooler stadiums to offer for the final. I have no idea how MetLife got chosen over the other possibilities
@Im_Bot_man@RurbanHermit@trwill1957 Correct. If he tried to capitalize on the money it would literally create a financial crisis. The market would tank, companies would bankrupt, 401ks lost, the 4400 employees of his he made millionaires today would lose all that money.
@HBGGA19@Perpetrator999@LALACMSEA That’s completely understandable man. Cost of living is lower therefore wages are too. I was being overtly a dickhead to that gentleman based on the way he responds to others and his arrogance. I wasn’t intending to belittle the amount of money to anyone but him.
White people are lost when it comes to chud the builder and black people are lost when it comes to karmelo anthony. I can’t believe the things I’m seeing people defend
@RurbanHermit@trwill1957 No. He’s probably not. Our education systems massively failed Americans in economic literacy. Which IMO could be intentional but that’s another conversation. It’s not even his fault really, it’s the education system’s. Most people probably think he actually has access to $1T
