workers off shore.

Patriots all.

And we can't fucking prosecute these mother fuckers?

What the fuck is wrong with this country?

1. I think we've been sold to the highest bidder...
Campaigns cost money, doncha know?

Some European car manufacturer also fired all its employees who used to make the cars, who had a reasonable living doing that.

I forget which one, though. They're going to use temp workers, I believe.

Horrifying.

And wrong.

Recommended.

2. Well, they didn't commit any crimes
Because all the laws against their behavior were repealed.

3. What's really worse is Rolling Stone is the only mainstream
media outlet that is publishing in depth exposes of all the scandals.

5. I don't think that's correct. I believe they did break laws.
While it's true that laws were repealed, they still broke remaining laws that weren't repealed. For example, they had an obligation under the law to disclose information about their crap investments that they did not disclose.

So there's both a problem of repealing laws that shouldn't have been and a problem of not enforcing laws that should've.
