– It’s a sign that the right wing are losing the culture war every time they freak out about a Google Doodle.

– Bicycle Sunday is coming up soon, Seattle (h/t).

– The good news is that they had the good sense not superimpose crosshairs on the picture of the president. Baby steps.

– If I Admit That ‘Hating Men’ Is a Thing, Will You Stop Turning It Into a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy?

    Hey, speaking of Cesar Chavez:

    But beyond the timing of this designation, one issue that repeatedly comes up in regards to César Chávez, who co-founded the iconic United Farm Workers, is his position on immigration, which was less than friendly. As Amanda Paulson of The Christian Science Monitor writes:

    “But Chávez was not a fan of expanding immigration. He believed that undocumented immigrants undercut the pay and negotiating power of unionized workers, and he protested farms’ use of migrant and undocumented workers as “strikebreakers.”

    In some instances, he and the UFW even reported some undocumented immigrants to the Immigration and Naturalization Service for deportation.

    In the 1970s, under Chávez, the UFW set up a “wet line” along the US-Mexico border to stop immigrants from entering the US illegally.

    California is on track to a budget surplus, and it was the voters who voted for the tax increases. Governor Brown has threatened to veto any bill that increases spending that puts it in jeopardy. I think he will do it, he’s made tough cuts before. The last time he was governor, he sold the Governor’s Mansion. He might even have the votes to sustain it, even with the Democratic Supermajority, the Democratic party is rarely in agreement.

    One thing that is a job creator in Los Angeles, is the MTA, as they continue rail expansion. Last year the Expo Line opened it’s first phase, the second phase in 2016, and it looks like they have learned to build a tunnel better in Los Angeles, that they will have the Regional Connector in Downtown by 2020. I would say they are spending billions to bring back the Pacific Electric, but the MTA’ s jurisdiction is only Los Angeles county. They are also getting ready to resume construction on the Purple Line to the sea, if they get passed the Beverly Hills Unified School District(although I was talking about that on a railfan board, and somebody back east said if NYC had to deal with people like that, subway on Manhattan would not have been built.).

    About the Montana bus operator that the FMCSA shut down, I got curious, because it looked like the fleet was in good condition, but you could do anything with a website photo. Inspectors found safety issues with 8 buses in the Rimrock fleet, that is too many, and if it were not for Jefferson Lines, Montana would be without the bulk of it’s intercity bus services. There is never a good time to cut corners on safety and maintenance, but right now, the FMCSA is on a major campaign against unsafe operators.

    37 years ago today, the major railroads of the northeast were nationalized to form Consolidated Railroad Corporation, but after restructuring,was privatized, and later bought out by CSX and Norfolk Southern. It was a necessary step, and with skin in the game, the government was later able to deregulate the industry. Of the three major railroad bankruptcies at the time, this was the only one where this drastic action.

    Even though the U.S. economy is allegedly “recovering” now, capitalism is still doing a lousy job of supporting the American people, except for the one-percenters who always do fine (and do even better during the depressions they create).

    “Workers in seven of the 10 largest occupations typically earn less than $30,000 a year, according to new data published Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. … Some 58% of the jobs created during the recovery have been low-wage positions, according to a 2012 report by the National Employment Law Project. These low-wage jobs had a median hourly wage of $13.83 or less.”

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: Meanwhile, sorry-fuck Republicans bitterly oppose any increase in the $7.25 federal minimum wage, which is less than 70% of the 1968 minimum wage (adjusted for inflation). That doesn’t even pay rent in many cities. Why would anyone except a one-percenter vote Republican? You’re cutting your own throat if you do.

    Take This Job And Shove It Dep’t

    Corporate profits, as a percent of GDP, have soared to record levels (n.b. while businesses pay a record-low share of federal taxes). Much of these profit gains have come at the expense of workers.

    Perhaps not so strangely, employers who have squeezed longer hours and harder work from employees for lower pay and less benefits, have become so accustomed to riding this gravy train they’re blind to the tsunami of discontent building within their workforces.

    “They’ve slogged through years of belt-tightening and downsizing, and endured endless requests to work harder, smarter or just plain longer. Now, experts say signs of life in the job market could start pushing some employees to do what they’ve been dreaming about … for years: quit. Too bad their employers … won’t see it coming.

    “‘Most companies are … not … prepared for all the … pent up turnover that is likely to come when the job market … turns around,’ said David G. Allen, a management professor at the University of Memphis who has studied employee turnover extensively.

    “Experts say employers appear to have grown … complacent about whether their employees will find a … job somewhere else. And even as many bosses have complained about how hard it is to find good workers, few have paid much attention to keeping the ones they have. ‘People are saying … they can’t find the right talent, and yet when they do, they don’t take … good care of it,’ said Sandi Edwards … of the American Management Association ….

    “Paul McDonald … of staffing firm Robert Half International, said … ‘If there are employers around and they haven’t experienced staff leaving them yet, they will shortly,’ he predicted.”

    http://www.cnbc.com/id/100605786

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: Here’s a clue for greedy slavedriver bosses — if you treat your workers like shit, they’ll shit on you in return. Gee, who wudda thunk?! As for me, I’ve already fired every goddamned boss in the world. Capitalism is taking such good care of me, I’ll never have to work again! So, bosses, take your lousy job and shove it! Do it yourself. I don’t have to, and I won’t. I don’t take orders from anyone anymore, and pretty soon, you’ll be taking orders from me! As a shareholder, I own your company, which means I own your ass, too! Suck on it.

    18 – As much as I’d like to see workers in this country do exactly that there’s a downside – inflation..

    Right wingers have been whining for years about inflation from money printing and pump priming. And there’s been some inflation – in commodities and financial assets and scarce things like top-flight university educations.. But not much else.

    In my lifetime I’ve seen inflation become a problem only when workers have the autonomy to jump jobs for higher pay, much higher pay. But that in turns fuels more consumption (of oil especially) and inflation spirals.

    Of course it’s a much different economy than the 70’s. Less of our GDP is in manufacturing, certainly less people are employed by manufacturers.

    The freakout over inflation in the 70’s just gave us Reaganism.. The reaction to renewed inflation can be just as bad even worse. I can only hope we’ve learned something since then.

    @19 “RR’s too fucking stupid to have earned his way into the 1%.”

    You’re right about one thing, Bob, I’m not a 1%-er. I was a public servant (I think you already knew that), and I wasn’t a trust fund baby. No one ever threw special privileges my way, so I had to work for everything, including my position atop the capitalist heap. (There is no higher status under capitalism than that of shareholder. CEOs are merely employees.) I started investing 30 years ago with less than $7500 and now my stocks are worth mid-6-figures. I wrung it out of dolts like you.

    Getting back to public service jobs, you don’t see public servants living in mansions or driving Porsches. You gotta be a greeedy fuck in the private sector to enjoy that stuff. But just because public service doesn’t pay well doesn’t mean those jobs are easy to get.

    A typical Civil Service job attracts maybe 100 applicants for 1 job. They take a test and the top 3 get referred to the agency for interviews. The other 97 go home. It’s kinda like “America Has Talent,” many compete, but only 1 gets the contract.

    Bob wouldn’t know about this, because he never had a public service job. So he’s clueless about how hard it is to get a public service career. Public service isn’t about money, it’s about serving the public good, and you have to be damned smart to get a chance to do that.

    @21 The wingers, as always, are wrong. We won’t get inflation from the Fed’s money-printing. Why? Because that money goes on bank balance sheets and stays there. It’s not entering the economy. That’s why there’s no inflation, and that’s also why bank deposits don’t pay any interest. Banks don’t have to rent money from savers, because they can borrow it from the Fed for free. And they don’t have to lend it to consumers and small businesses to make money, because the Fed borrows it back from them — and pays the banks interest on its own money. Quite a racket. And the crazy thing is Republicans call the president behind these policies a “communist.” (!!!)

    Nearly 500 professors, student and alumni signed a letter (see full text below) expressing concern that Carson, as a 7th Day Adventist, believes in creationist theory that holds that all life on Earth was created by God about 6,000 years ago. It rejects Darwin’s theory of evolution, which is the central principle that animates modern biology, uniting all biological fields under one theoretical tent, and which virtually all modern scientists agree is true.

    Workers of course:

    “The first year we had a lot of protests in the state,” Walker said recently. ..

    “The only question is, ‘Why are we doing so poorly?’” said Jack Norman, former research director of the liberal Institute for Wisconsin’s Future. “The plunge in job growth, compared with other states, coincides exactly with Scott Walker’s time in office. This is no mere coincidence. . . . Act 10 led to large cuts in public workers’ take-home pay, which was a blow to the state’s economy.”

    Current Evolutionary theory is that we shared a common ancestor millions of years back. Humans evolved one way, the other primates evolved differently to fit their ecological niches.

    Scientists believe this common ancestor existed 5 to 8 million years ago. Shortly thereafter, the species diverged into two separate lineages. One of these lineages ultimately evolved into gorillas and chimps, and the other evolved into early human ancestors called hominids.

    Corporations have a huge cash hoard right now.. In the trillions. When the economy picks up, they will have to draw on that to retain workers and hire new workers.. The demand for oil will spike and that will be a significant new cost to boot.

    I don’t think it will be too long before Corps start competing for the funds on bank balance sheets.. That will force longer term interest rates to climb.

    WTF?

    YLB, I barely know where to begin.

    Here’s a start:

    1. Corporations with huge cash hoards are adding to that hoard each quarter.

    2. In many cases don’t have to draw on it to fund expansion. They can either expand based on their ongoing cash flow, which doesn’t have to be added to their hoard if there’s a better use for it, or they can borrow by floating bonds or other instruments, which are purchased by investors.

    3. Similarly, they can add more employees by using cash earnings rather than their banked cash and investments.

    4. The cost of oil means little to how JPM or Wells Fargo conduct business. Or Apple or Microsoft, for that matter. Companies with the largest cash hoards aren’t manufacturers, YLB. You’re throwing everything into your argument and making little sense.

    I elected not to reply to RR because…… well, because RR.

    You, on the other hand, might have the available grey matter to comprehend that what will force long-term interest rates upwards won’t be a need for capital by corporations that already have plenty of it. It will be a realization on the part of people buying bonds and other Treasury instruments from the government that the government is selling new debt to pay off maturing debt as well as to finance silly spending, and that they instead can invest in financial instruments offered by corporations/banks/finanicial entities that pay better rates and have far better abilities to increase payouts when inflation starts creeping in. Right now the government still is considered a safe place to park cash. Give the recovery a couple more years while Obama adds on another $2+ trillion in those years, and the government won’t be looking so good as a comparable source of stability.

    But, please, YLB. Tell us why Apple and Cisco need to tap into their cash hoard so they can grow and hire more. Can’t they just bank a billion or so less each quarter and do it that way? If a major corporation has a AAA rating and the federal government doesn’t, why can’t that corporation sell bonds instead?

    A quick look at why large amounts of cash are hoarded offshore:

    It’s to avoid double-taxation.

    Apple holds $94 billion of its cash offshore, 69% of the gross figure. That money would first be taxed at up to 35% before it could be distributed…

    Microsoft has $68 billion in gross cash and equivalents, of which $61 billion, or 90%, is held offshore and could be subject to taxes if brought back to the U.S.

    Cisco has $45 billion in cash, of which $38 billion, or 84%, is held offshore.

    http://online.wsj.com/article/.....89044.html

    Companies are playing a game of chicken with the government. Government needs the money repatriated but wants to fully tax income that has already been taxed elsewhere. Corporations, meanwhile, want a break from that full fare on money they have already paid tax for having earned.

    Apple doesn’t need the money. Microsoft doesn’t need the money – money makes people do stupid shit like trying to buy Yahoo.

    After furloughing its US workers, Fisker Automotive has hired a law firm for a potential bankruptcy, Reuters reports, citing a person familiar with the process.

    Kirkland & Ellis is advising the California-based maker of the extended-range plug-in Karma for a potential bankruptcy filing, which hasn’t produced a car in about eight months and is losing interest from two prospective China-based buyers. Fisker declined to comment to Reuters.

    It turns out that about half of it was right here in the U.S. But the U.S. Corporations were hiding it in the accounts of their foreign subsidiaries, in various tax avoidance schemes, and to take advantage of the much lower taxes on capital gains here.

She’s going to be really annoyed that you embraced fear and loathing and ignorance, rather than rejecting dogma and embracing the collected wisdom that those of her creation have revealed through the earnest use of the faculties she gave them.

    Wouldn’t it be a curious thing if the two Kaufman County prosecutors and one wife were killed with Fast and Furious weapons Lib da schmucko? Wouldn’t that really suck on Obummer’s watch?

    Since most DUMMOCRAPT senators have admitted the new draft gun legislation would not had any effect in prohibiting Lanza, Loughner, and Holmes from getting weapons Lib da schmucko, why don’t they just say enforce existing laws? Loughner passed an Arizona background check even though his classmates thought he was a real mental danger. A mental case like you!

He’s the husband of Gabrielle Giffords, the congresscritter (DUMB Wabbit word) who was shot in the head. Somehow that fact is lost in that neanderthal cranial orifice on your body.

    Senator Richard Blumenthal, DUMMOCRAPT of Connecticut admitted just as much two days ago; background checks would not have stopped Lanza, Holmes or Loughner as they stand today. How come NY, Chicago and LA don’t enforce federal gun laws already passed? The NRA calls for governments to enforce existing laws. Puddy placed the Reuters article regarding this on the blog last week. Ask unemployed lunatic Pluto boy moron for it since your memory lapses are getting close to the DUMB Wabbit and his memory lapses are LEGION!

    Why does the ACLU jump in and scream bloody murder when legislators want to add mental health checks to gun background checks?

    Also, it sounds like he was criticizing behavior, while you’re just calling people nasty names, people you’ve decided it’s OK to hate

    There you go again schmucko claiming Puddy hates someone when they call them a name. Who sez Puddy hates anyone? It seems that’s your take on life dude. You run to the hateful left wrong sites and make their thoughts your thoughts.

    Unfortunately for you, you are a hypocrite. Seems from your commentary above everyone on the left hates Puddy since they all call Puddy names… except Richard Pope. And since you reject Jesus, your association is another EPIC FAYLE!

    Puddybud,

    “Puddy doesn’t share a common ancestor with apes.”

    Yes you do.* Both your mother and father are apes. As are my mother and father.

    Morphologically, humans are great apes–that is, we are members of the family Hominidae.

    “…therefore which primate did you evolve from:

    Chimpanzee
    Gorilla
    Spider monkey
    Gibbon
    Baboon”

    The answer is “None of the Above.” In just asking this nonsensical question, you demonstrate a profound ignorance of basic biology!

    *Update: If one subscribes to the theory that Puddybud is a role-playing character, then this statement may be correct. Nevertheless, the person playing Puddybud is an ape and descended from apes.
