It stopped at $400,000 because the state Supreme Court ruled the law unconstitutional and put a stop to the whole operation. He’d have made tens of millions if not more otherwise.

They tried it in florida and 96% of recipients passed…but not before the state spent $400,000 in taxpayer money with the drug testing company…that had the governors wife on its board of directors

I don’t spend enough time on Facebook to bother with any of that shit, I just notice it’s incredibly prevalent whenever I do happen to open it up

Is the obstacle that we’re the only country on earth that already has our own moon rocks to study and they were gathered by human hands?

Just be sure to only feed it fish, because fish are icky and gross, not fuzzy and cute like mammals are.

If it’s anything like what happens in the US they’re dumping “excess” production to keep prices artificially high.

Not when the new person goes straight from being on your payroll to being in office, then back to being on your payroll when they’re done.

I don’t think it’s tiny enough that you could multiply it by 20 and still call it tiny.

Conservatives love this idea, to the point that they don’t even bother thinking about who is going to pay for it. If you did mandatory service for people 18-20 the armed forces would be roughly 20 times larger than it is now in terms of personnel, 10 times larger if it were mandatory for men only. Military spending is nearly 1/4 of the total budget as-is, where is the funding going to come from if you have 10 or 20 times as many people to arm and train?

And what the fuck are you going to have them all do? They’re just gonna bum around and fuck for two years and then go get free degrees on the GI bill, driving up the cost even further.

Truly, the party of fiscal responsibility.

Oh you mean the Benghazi one that was widely released in theaters that conveniently left out the part where the embassy guards said everything was fine and they didn’t need any reinforcements?
