To back up this anecdotal evidence: all of my friends with at least a 3.3 in Accounting at UConn ended up at Big4 firms, my friend with a 3.8 in Accounting at ECSU ended up at Blum Shapiro

Think of abortion as protecting private property. If someone's in your garage and you don't want them there, you can shoot them. Now imagine someone's up your ass without you wanting them there. Don't you have a right to remove them?

How is this company allowed to make 1.4 billion in profit? Seriously wtf

And if you can’t join ‘em, eat ‘em

What do you mean by budget plan? I am on a plan where I pay some average amount and then at the end of the year, they adjust my payment, is that what you mean?

I only ask because I was able to switch the Constellation before the rate hike and haven't had any issues.

You might try searching this forum. It is a question that has been asked many times before.

A couple of hints:

1. Where are you? We are a small state, and you say you might travel farther, but where is that? I could recommend some great places in Southington but if you are in Greenwich it doesn't do much good.

2. What kind of food? Lots to choose from.

Ok you can ban those foods by name in schools but not in the public realm. I'm guessing it's unconstitutional but even if not, that's a stack of lawsuits waiting to happen. Also if you're going to ban these there are many you have omitted that deserve consideration. People will notice the selectivity.

How about a tax on trans fats? Or just phase it out completely over time? The subsidized corn industry will never allow banning HFCS, but I like the idea of not subsidizing corn. The reason these foods are overconsumed is because the raw materials are cheap from taxpayer subsidies. Beef and pork - cheap from corn subsidies - also not very good for you I see these didn't make it into your list.

You're also dealing with a public that likes these foods. Politically unpalatable. Wouldn't it be more prudent to educate the public about diet and exercise? Policy making doesn't have to start and end with bans. Gun policy isn't all banning either. I personally don't like the fact that the state is in our homes telling us how we can store guns and ammo, but I also want to live in a place where gun violence is low. Absent, really, but not in the US, unfortunately.

Im assuming you're trying draw a parallel with gun bans but that's a false equivalence. Handguns are made for killing. Not for target practice, hand/eye coordination or recreational. They're made for killing people. People frequent McDonald's to eat. It may be a poor choice from a health standpoint, but they're doing it out of choice. People DO NOT go out in public to get shot by a crazy or get caught in crossfire.

I'm most definitely NOT a libertarian. And I'm saying if we listened to the rail workers (and their concern for their own lives and working conditions) over corporate interest (to maximize profits) then yes, maybe the recent disasters would have been avoided. Maximizing profits at the expense of human life is disgusting.

I didn't say make the same money. I said workers would have control over their labor. They would have more ability to decide what they are willing to work for and the conditions they demand. You know, by organizing and unions and such.

We also wouldn't have bailouts for business and then allow them to buy back stocks and post big bonuses for the c-suite and layoff for the general workers.

So I’m going to start by saying that just because an institution has stood for X amount of time does not mean it is inherently beneficial. I also would like to say that working class people do deserve higher monitory compensation for the work and the capital that they bring in. There is no capital being produced without the worker. The only thing that the employer has “risked” is becoming a park of the working class while the worker is held at borderline poverty to make sure they understand that if they can’t work they will become a part of the homeless population. Now tell me u/Salty-Leg-9037, in what world is it ok to have one man collect the salary and benefits of hundreds of workers simply because he “owns” the company. He risks only becoming a worker if his business fails. Capitalism only works if there is free and abundant competition, which there is none in today’s society. It has become a monopolist market and there are no real competitors, meaning the price on everything is increasing, wages are dropping, the wealth gap is unparalleled and children are starving to death. But I guess its because they don’t work hard enough and pick up extra hours right? Or is it that they didn’t take that financial risk? Give me one good reason why families and veterans and children are starving and freezing to death while capital owners continue to make more and more profits.

A well deserved raise for keeping the lights on and our homes warm, thank you sir! But don't spend it all at once!

Nice work if you can get it. Too me regardless of how much they make, I would not want the top spot at any company. All you do is work under tremendous pressure from every where and then all of us in the public vilify them for making too much. I will take my normal job any day and be able to spend my free time how I want.

You're right, regulations don't work in this case. We need to do away with eversource and make it a state run public entity.

What a fucking joke of a post. So misleading.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

Absolutely. The only issue is figuring out who is less likely to exploit you Musk (Tesla panels) or ES.

Thank goodness

Licensing of the purchase of foods, including a two feature deadly food ban. Features of a deadly food include: trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, sugar, salt, and being cooked with or otherwise incorporating the use oil including but not limited to vegetable.

Foods banned by name: Hostess Twinkies, Funny Bones, Chips, Mcdonald’s Cheeseburger, Oreos Cookies, Taco Bell Beefy Four Layer Burrito, and Popeyes Chicken Sandwich.

Foods made prior to September of 1994 are exempt from the aforementioned deadly food ban and can be transferred and possessed freely unless these food items are listed by name in the above section.

Doctors and nurses are exempt from this ban, supposing they can obtain an exemption letter from their Chief Medical Officer.

That should get rid of cardiovascular disease.

Holy shit. You are powerfully stupid.

no, they're saying under a free market such disasters would have been avoided. that's a common argument libertarians make. i didn't down vote you, mr sensitive, im a free marketer

Interpret how you wish.. That isn't the point I made. She argued that capitalism ruins people's lives. That is incorrect. Especially if you are a beneficiary of that system. So you downvote the comment because you disagreed with it, 😆

I was just about to recommend your top 2. I am in SW CT and will travel the hour it takes to go to each.

>system that's worked for 100s and hundreds of years?

That's not a long time, at all.

And you seem to be confusing the definition of capitalism, and production?

You can have the production of goods without capitalism.

edit: what kind of idiots downvote this? like me providing any single source (considering all the BS news sites out there) means anything when you have the entire internet a click away - WTF
