Washington Post: Oh No! Republicans Who Control The House Due to a Majority of the Nation Voting For Them Are Excercising the Power the Citizens Want Them to Have!
And can you believe it?! They're using the power the majority of voters gave them to do what the majority of voters want them to do, which is defunding the left's drunken-sailor spending on woke totalitarianism!
Since last year's elections, Republican lawmakers increasingly have seized on the power of the federal purse, coupling their crusade for austerity with a fierce push to advance a conservative social agenda. At the height of the annual appropriations process -- as members of Congress race to fund the government and avert a shutdown -- the GOP's far-right flank has scrubbed spending bills to eliminate money that would protect LGBTQ rights, ensure gender equality and promote racial justice.Cry moar, groomer scum.

We'll see if that actually happens, though. You know FJB will just order the Treasury department to spin up the printers into overdrive so that all those groups get their funding. Oh, and The Big Guy gets 10%. Or else.

Religion doesn't even need to play a part in it, they're just cashing in on decades of "don't trust Jesus People" brainwashing.
The idea that "don't be a perv all the time, and don't mess with children" is controversial is the most Critical of Critical Theories ever vomited out by the neo-nomenklatura.

Yesterday was National Hot Dog Day.
Sadly, this momentous occasion appeared to go unmarked here at the AoSHQ.
Fortunately, perennial Horde favorite Mitt "Delecto" Romney (R-UT) was there for us.
“Well, as you all know, today is National Hot Dog Day, and perhaps you also know that hot dog is my favorite meat. I love hot dogs.
I love them in buns. I love them outside of buns. I love them with baked beans. I just like hot dogs. It’s the best, you know, best meat there is, without question.
So to all of you like me who are celebrating National Hot Dog Day, congratulations to you, and may there be many, many more hot dogs served in our wonderful land.”

I didn't get here in time to comment on the post about the pedo writing for Bloomberg, but I would like to get my two cents in here.
We on the Right tend to think that the truth will set us free. That once we reveal the true vileness of the Left, that people will reject them.
That's a load of horseshit. Once pedophilia is normalized, most people will accept it.
So what needs to happen now is for governors to give pardons for people who kill pedophiles. Preferably those like Noah Berlatsky or Scott Weiner who support it as well.
Note that the pardon would only be for murdering the.pedophiles. Kill a pedophile while you are robbing a bank, you are still going to prison for bank robbery.
Ron DeSantis might even be able to help his stalling campaign. Greg Abbott would probably follow suit. And we could probably make the pardons popular enough that Democrat governors would be on the defensive for not giving them.

The Davis-Bacon Act:
The Depression-era Davis-Bacon Act requires companies contracting with the federal government to pay "prevailing wages" -- meaning union-scale -- to their workers. Meant to protect unionized contractors from lower-cost competitors, the Act's ulterior motive was to discriminate against contractors using non-union workers -- frequently minorities. Ending this competition-stifling measure would save taxpayers nearly $9 billion over five years.

Remember the dude from the Kinks spying on his sister making out?
'My sister should have come in at midnight
And my mum would always sit up and wait
It always ended up in a big row
When my sister used to get home late
Out of my window I can see them in the moonlight
Two silhouettes saying goodnight by the garden gate'

121 The interesting thing with Lena Dunham is...she looked pretty normal a decade ago, around age 26.

But once the feminism really took over her brain, and staying thin(ish) got harder and harder, it's a lot easy to let everything go and say men are the ones who have to accept you no matter how you look. Lol...I remember her boyfriend stringing her along during the Obama administration, saying he didn't want to propose to her while gays couldn't marry.

127 Since we're over 100 comments, I'd like Warai-otoko to explain something so my pedestrian brain can understand.
Son = God
Father = God
By the transitive property and the Trinity, that means
Son = Father
Now, given that the Son and the Father are the same being, how can the Father know something the Son does not? How does a non-pedestrian understanding of the Trinity resolve this conundrum?
Posted by: bonhomme at July 20, 2023 07:11 PM (0N1h0)
_________
2 things:
1. The Incarnate Son (Jesus) has knowledge limited by the very fact of his incarnation.
2. "Son = God
Father = God
By the transitive property and the Trinity, that means
Son = Father"
Isn't right. The meaning is not transitive. And was never meant to be.

I have several general contractor friends and they absolutely hate prevailing wage. Every taxpayer should also.
I'm sure they also bitch, constantly, about how they can't hire great craftsmen at the price they prefer, rather than the price the general market demands. My old man always makes the same bitch, in reverse, because Ford won't sell him the truck he wants at the price he prefers.
Here's the ugly truth about public projects. There is a shit pot of graft and waste involved. Usually around 1/3 to 1/2 more than a comparable commercial project. But get this - it's not because of that evil Union guy driving nails or fitting pipes. And it's not entirely because of bribes either, although bribes are involved.
There is a cost - a huge compliance cost - in doing any municipal project. Extra inspectors. Extra regulators. Just more extra.

"transitive property of trinity", Trinity is not in the Bible ... seems it would be if real.
Very simple, JC was the only begotten son of God, first fruits from among the dead. Jesus obeyed his Father's will, not his own will ("if there be any other way, let this cup pass from me, nevertheless, not my will but thing be done").
Jesus was first fruits, Christians are the other fruits, Christians are brother with JC, joint heirs. It's not that hard, except churches made us receit that Orwellian Nicean Creed every week. they knew to get us as children

Very simple, JC was the only begotten son of God, first fruits from among the dead. Jesus obeyed his Father's will, not his own will ("if there be any other way, let this cup pass from me, nevertheless, not my will but thing be done").
Jesus was first fruits, Christians are the other fruits, Christians are brother with JC, joint heirs. It's not that hard, except churches made us receit that Orwellian Nicean Creed every week. they knew to get us as children

Sooo, it's not my "pedestrian understanding" that's the problem. It's just something you either accept or you don't, yes?
Posted by: bonhomme at July 20, 2023 07:14 PM (0N1h0)
The "pedestrian understanding" is what makes you drop a turd on someone's faith and act like you're clever for it.
It is, though, ultimately, something you either accept or don't. There are a million ways of arguing one way or another, and two millenia worth of assholes have used it as an excuse to kill each other. But you'll never "prove" the Trinity any more than you'll prove your own existence.
If Calvary was an atonement of Adam's sin, then all of adequate worth that could be sacrificed is The Lord Himself. If He is Immortal and Eternal, that can't be done. So if you were going to come up with a state of affairs where God could give Himself as a sacrifice, something like this Three-but-Still-One-but-Also-Three deal is probably what the solution would have to look like. And it's native to expect it to make sense within the framework and logic of this goofy four-ball energy field we got shoved into.

So in the Trinity, God the Son only refers to Jesus on Earth? That doesn't sound right.
> Isn't right. The meaning is not transitive. And was never meant to be.
Is God the Son a subset of God the Father?
Are they the same being?
If the Son is not a subset, and is exactly equal to the Father, my original question remains.

I worked for a company that was marketing its workflow product to local governments to change the building permit process from 180 days to 1.
Sounds great. But the problem is that the reason why it takes 180 days is that there are more opportunities for graft that way. If I have a way to speed yours up over others I have some leverage. If everyone gets a one day permit I have lost my power.

Yup.

'The Davis-Bacon prevailing wage is the combination of the basic hourly wage rate and any fringe benefits listed for a specific classification of workers in the applicable Davis-Bacon wage determination.'

Anybody here that thinks the cost of your school, or bridge, goes down a penny ? Nurse, you've never worked the process. The cost is baked into the cake. Economic reality vs. high school econ theory.
Now - tell me how you ensure the integrity of said school or bridge. You can't, either way. No inspection process exists to do so - even though you'll hear no end to the bitching regarding the inspections.
Given all that. Do you want your nail drives or fitters of pipe making more, or less ?

I did come out a bit hot. I apologize.
I have been more than a bit put out by people here claiming my belief in Jesus Christ's divinity and sacrifice and attempting to follow Jesus' example don't make me Christian and the fact I don't believe the Son and the Father are exactly the same being means I'm something completely unworthy of the name of Christ.
Even so, the Bible contradicts the Triune God theory in several passages and I get annoyed when people claim it's the only possible Biblical interpretation.

196 > 1. The Incarnate Son (Jesus) has knowledge limited by the very fact of his incarnation.
So in the Trinity, God the Son only refers to Jesus on Earth? That doesn't sound right.
> Isn't right. The meaning is not transitive. And was never meant to be.
Is God the Son a subset of God the Father?
Are they the same being?
If the Son is not a subset, and is exactly equal to the Father, my original question remains.

Now, given that the Son and the Father are the same being, how can the Father know something the Son does not?
My understanding is that the Triune God (one entity) exists in three distinct Persons (all equally God).
If you are serious about this question - a study of the Trinity should help answer your question.
We are told that Jesus grew in wisdom, which indicates that when He became man, He chose to understand and grow as a man.

Now, given that the Son and the Father are the same being, how can the Father know something the Son does not? How does a non-pedestrian understanding of the Trinity resolve this conundrum?
I believe that it is foolish to try to rationalize that Christ would never know being that He is eternal and omniscient. Being outside time, He sees the end from the beginning.
The temporalness of the situation would be that the office appointed to Him by the Father also made knowing that time to not belong to Him. He did not say that it is not in His power, but He had not been sent by the Father with this commission, so long as he dwelled among mortals. Jesus' gig was to be Mediator until He discharged His office that information was not given to Him. It was after the resurrection where He expressedly declared that power (Matthew 28:1

You really can't enforce it now though.

Sorry about your building falling apart in a decade, too bad. It is repairable under the same Davis Bacon rules.
That is what perverse incentives look like.

None. Self-employed technician. Self-reformed former project manager and engineer. I chose to make less money to make a more honest living.
It still boggles my mind, Union or not, that more bridges do not fall, schools catch on fire, or roofs leak. Because Union or Non-Union, it's the wild west when it comes to any construction project.
So again, given all that, do you want the guy actually pouring the concrete to make more or less ? I assure you, the cost at the end is going to be the same either way. Savvy firms - which are all of them - know the budget ahead of time and bid right up to the line. As they should.

I think both sides were wrong because they were using their own understanding and not soliciting Divine Revelation. God has certainly told us over and over and over again in the Bible that He reveals His secrets to Prophets. Attempting to write doctrine without Revelation is something I would personally be terrified to do, because I believe God disapproves of such things.

At least your shit came on time. I'm still waiting on the HVAC unit that was supposed to come last week. At least I'll be out of town next week. Maybe it will come while I'm gone, and not dealing with the heat in this building

For me, anyway, Davis-Bacon meant I got paid three extra dollars for putting up fences inside an air terminal, but I got six extra for putting up fences outside an air terminal. And so on.
Yet, I'll bet, you didn't insist on giving those extra three bucks back - because it wasn't the capitalistic way.
This is the problem with being a wage-earner. We can all talk theory. But at the end of the day, do you want modern construction to reach peak efficiency regarding labor wages ? As in, shall we all go back to a "better time" ? Like, say, dawn of the Industrial Revolution ?
I sure as shit don't. But I get why Nurse wants cheaper roofers. I've heard company owners bitch about needing cheaper technicians my entire life.
I just didn't listen so much as to care.

So again, given all that, do you want the guy actually pouring the concrete to make more or less ? I assure you, the cost at the end is going to be the same either way. Savvy firms - which are all of them - know the budget ahead of time and bid right up to the line. As they should.

I have bid and won government contracts to make machines for the government from NASA to DOD. They don't work the way Davis-Beacon does. No, you make sure you comply with all of the specifications in your bid or take exception (which might lose the bid but rarely) and they pick the lower priced option. Then if you fail to deliver to specification you are on the hook for fixing it. But I guess construction projects are different because.... well Because!

It makes no difference. In 2008 I was working to resolve wage claims by contract labor that realized they were getting stiffed on a construction project. They finished the work but over time and what they got as a flat payment was not sufficient even for minimum wage. They were Mexicans who had their own tools and one of the guys could read blueprints. When sorted out, the prime contractor had hired a subcontractor, who was so busy he hired a subcontractor, who was busy so he hired a sub contractor got the gaggle of minimum talent Mexicans as 1099 employees.
Granted when we got through to the Prime he solved it in a day and I bet those asschewings were impressive.
Reputation is the only thing that works in this industry, everything else is subject to fraud, negligence and corner cutting. As a IC in this field you know this.

-----
Hell, no I didn't. I had mouths to feed.
But that doesn't make it a smart law. As you pointed out, my boss had to quote those city jobs at a third higher, because of all the insane regulations and wage distortions. His daughter basically had a full-time job, figuring which dudes were on city jobs, inside or outside, what season of the year, etc.
It really was a ripoff for him. At some point, a lot of guys just stop taking the city jobs. He really couldn't, because he was running a different scam involving the city, and couldn't say no.
But that's how it works. Scammers get the city biz. And I still like this guy. No gripes about how he treated me. But he was running a game.

Have you asked Him yourself?
Zero snark, i mean really think about a thing, then pray silently for as long as you like, and just listen?
Sure have.
I strongly believe God the Son and God the Father are distinct beings as to the flesh and one in the same in purpose, direction, opinion, etc. One in spirit, so to speak.
The usual fast retort to this is to claim that makes me a polytheist. I don't agree. I worship God. I pray to God in Jesus' name. Jesus prayed to God that the Apostles be made one the way Son and Father are one. I don't believe He was asking God to make the Apostles "consubstantial" with each other. I believe He was asking for them to be spiritually one as Son and Father are.

The most complicated machine you can make, for DoD - and I worked at a small firm for a while that did just that for Naval Ordinance - is absolutely 100% different than a public occupancy project. A completely different animal.

So, everybody here wants cheaper construction workers.
-------
I actually don't. I prefer to work with English speakers if I'm paying for some job. Which I usually don't. I don't fuck around with heavy plumbing jobs, but most other stuff, I try to do on my own.
The problem with Davis-Bacon is a customer/contractor problem. As a taxpayer, that contractor could offer me (in all likelihood) a 25% discount on that qualified, English speaking worker, if I just didn't have the city skimming from us both.

And therein lies at least part of the problem. A public job is not going to be efficient, by definition. Because the customers are pretty close to infinite. It's not a one to one negotiation.
I'm not arguing that Davis-Bacon is great. I'm arguing that the problem is Public Projects. Public Projects won't suddenly get efficient just from eliminating Davis-Bacon.
But labor will be cheaper. And that's a constant cry from certain Rock Ribbed Republicans. The same folks, like Nurse, that just can't figure out why more working class folks won't pull the R lever on election day. It's a real mystery, for sure.
