    News Chuck Liddell Arrested for Domestic Violence (UPDATE: With Official Statement)

    So you don't count prisoners rape as rape??? Is your correctional system so fucked you see being raped in jail as unworthy of being included in statistics. Honestly if you hold that view your wrong in the head

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    Sadly this is very true and goes back to my point about child labour and workplace safety. In the uk we have a shop called primark which sells really cheap clothes, and I mean CHEAP, it's one of the most famous brands in the country and their stores are packed. A few years ago a factory that...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    I'm going to say because you are, as you say, one nation under god. Forcing wage disparity on a state by state basis ensures that the market is artificially suppressed in poorer states and people living there are at a disadvantage from the off. If people can be paid the same everywhere you may...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    I feel like these arguments were made when child labour laws and safety regulations were put in place....government interference/free market/business will die etc. But would anybody in their right mind actually suggest these things were bad and we should repeal these laws and let the market...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    You will see that I said reduce profit if possible, if it's not then no worries. I get your concerns I have worked in restaurants and know that more fail than succeed and that is in spite of paying terrible wages in general (not saying that applies to you). It does seem though that what you...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    Just to be clear, I do see validity to your points as per the current climate and do not discredit them, I also dont contradict you to discredit your views. I just feel there is a growing groundswell of people being left behind who will embrace anything they see as better,. This has...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    It seems that many people would rather look down on the less fortunate than help them....not sure there's much more to it. We can argue about pulling yourself up by the bootstrap etc (a phrase that was designed as a n idiocy and mockery of the people who have adopted it as a mantra) or just...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    Fair enough, in the here and now I can see how that makes sense but if you pay the same to people doing the same job everywhere in your country maybe wealth can spread out a bit. If the person in the rust belt is getting the same wage as the person in the bay area, assuming you upped their wage...

    $70 for two fights

    70 dollars is not nothing, I'm not sure if that's supposed to be some kind of flex? If we are being realistic that's 6 months of Netflix, value wise theres no comparison. When you charge that much you are alienating the grass roots fans who actually have to think about where their money goes...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    Why would you reduce hours? Out of principal?Do you currently have people working more hours than you need them to? If you pass on the price to the consumer or, depending of course on the size of your business, make a bit less profit, that money will circulate in your local economy and a good...

    Economy Minimum wage debate: States make their own increases (Post #340)

    I see where you are coming from but why should a 17 year old in Nebraska be paid less than a 30 year old in Brooklyn to do the exact same work? If that 17 year old can make that much money bagging groceries it might give him a chance to go to college and come out without massive debt, maybe it...

    News Dana to reveal Khabib's decision on Abc Today

    If he is coming back it's a one off with gsp, if he's not them McGregor v poirier is for the vacant title, either way they get an announcement. Just wonder if the gsp fight will be for the title or at a catch weight...if so McGregor poirier will still be for the vacant title. From the UFC's...

    Ido talking about not training with vegans

    I was being sarcastic, citing miley cyrus as a source for life and dietary advice is moronic...though maybe makes sense if your a teenage girl.

    Ido talking about not training with vegans

    To be fair to him Miley Cyrus was having issues with brain fog....I've yet to see as strong an arguement made in favour of veganism lol

    Ido talking about not training with vegans

    I have no idea why you are continuing to entertain this guys childish arguments about how you should be castrating lions to prevent massacres in the wild and donating to african children. You have the patience of a saint to continue giving thought out, rational, polite answers! It's really...

    Weird Tyson theory

    I dont think for a second he will fight mma , I just think all the footage of him training with mma guys is promotional work for a ufc tie in.

    Weird Tyson theory

    I know this may seem weird but I didnt really think anything of it before until I was watching jre the other day When mike Tyson recently posted the pad video I didnt really think much of the fact it was with Rafael cordero but why would he be training with an mma coach? I know this is out...
