We'll both have great retirements and even good lives prior to retirement because we both have brokerage accounts. I'm doing really well because part of my pay is in stock adn my company's stock is doing well. People getting a $1k bonus and $1/hour pay raise are happy, but the divide will continue to grow between those that have savings/investments and those that live paycheck to paycheck. I guess they can afford to upsize their McDonald's meal now, which is great, but I'll be flying to Europe and taking cruises.
    Gotcha.

Heck, my inlaws are still funding five of their children in some form or fashion, and they are all grown, married, and graduated from college.
    Yeah, I know way too many people who have done or are currently doing the same thing. Sad to watch.

      If anyone here should know an acerbic asshole when they see one, it would be you. So, I will take note.

        I wasn't clear, but in my head prior to actually typing a response it was very clear that i was alluding to the fact that the bonuses and raises are great for the WM employees, unless you were one of the thousands of employees that are getting canned during the recently announced closures.

          • walmart is unique in that it operates in some respects as a company town for its low wage employees. its effects on labor, especially in small ish towns, is going to continue to be interesting.

                        I like where the interviewer asks if the economy in their town has gotten better yet..."well no, not here yet, but...."

                          • Funny to hear Mitch McConnell saying yesterday that he won't allow any immigration/DACA proposals to get a vote in the Senate until he knows what President Trump wants. Uh yeah, forget being any kind of leader yourself. Let's defer to the dude in the WH who changes his mind about everything every five minutes. Then you can be all surprised in November when your party gets swept out of power. Good move.

                              • Hungarian Police Have A Warrant Out For Former Trump Adviser Sebastian Gorka
                                Gorka's warrant on gun charges was in effect the entire time he was in the White House.



                                Former Trump White House staffer Sebastian Gorka has an active warrant out for his arrest in Hungary, according to the Hungarian police's website.

                                Gorka, whose exact role in the White House while serving as a deputy assistant to the president was never entirely clear, apparently is in trouble with the law over a charge of "firearm or ammunition abuse." The warrant, first reported in Hungarian online outlet 444, was issued on Sept. 17, 2016, prior to Trump's election.

                                That means that during the entire seven months Gorka spent in the White House, including when meeting with Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó in Washington last March, an arrest warrant was pending overseas.

                                Details about the reasoning behind the warrant are sparse: The Hungarian police's website only notes the date it was issued, the charge, and that it was filed with the Budaörs police station in Budapest. 444 noted that the charge could have resulted from an incident as far back as 2009. The police station did not immediately respond to BuzzFeed News' request for comment.

                                Gorka declined to comment. "Don't waste your time," he said when reached by phone. "I don't talk to BuzzFeed, thank you." After this story's publication, Gorka noted on Twitter that he moved to the US in 2008 while not denying that the warrant exists.

                                Gorka's affinity for guns is well-known. He told Recoil magazine in November that he packs a pistol — along with a knife and tourniquet — every day. In February 2016, he had a gun confiscated after attempting to bring it through Washington's Reagan National Airport.
