Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs shows what it takes for humans to be happy. A lot of people can't even reach level 1.

Make a list of companies that do this, so you don't waste your time. Also, the quality/functionality of their website can tell you a lot about how seriously they take their business.

Pulling the lever for Trump is like hitting yourself in the balls with a sledgehammer.

This. You can usually spot bots from their low- value click bait. ("should cannibalism be legal?","why does God allow evil to exist?","Trump is a genius", etc).

This is that "liberal news media" that Republicans keep yammering on about.

The one that's owned by six corporations.

The U.S. also has a huge defense industry that has made people ridiculously rich at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. Those billionaires are heavily invested in the defense industry, so it's not in their interests that wars end at all.

This is that "military-industrial complex" that former President Eisenhower warned us about so many years ago. His concern was that the U.S. would become bogged down in an endless series of "forever wars" that do nothing but transfer wealth to the already-wealthy.

Keeping that military industrial complex well-fed is the reason why so many politicians have such a boner for war. Not only to keep their wealthy sponsors happy, but to keep tax money and jobs flowing to their states, which just happen to manufacture war materiel.

And if Elmo does it again, he'll get an even stronger warning.

It must be nice to live a consequence-free life.

If you're growing onions in a field that doesn't have proper drainage, the water/fertilizer can actually build up in the tissue of the onion and surface washing doesn't help.

The E. Coli probably comes from the poop water the onions were soaking in.

"Trickle down economics"

They're literally saying, "we're pissing on you."

Story is confusing. Is the second person with the dying mother the business owner or the second employee who pointed out the bosses assholish behavior?

Maybe Tesla shouldn't be allowed to call their enhanced cruise control "autopilot." Everyone knows how "autopilots" are supposed to work.

Yeah, I suppose it was traumatic, bombing food relief convoys and hospitals. You could have avoided a lot of that PTSD by refusing to follow illegal orders.

Also, get farked, CNN.
