| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Do you figure AmEx has a plan to make Apple customers profitable for the bank? | Apr 02 01:22 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | is there another deal? | Apr 02 01:22 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | something in the news? | Apr 02 01:22 |
| IsambardPrince | There's a competition for this apparently. | Apr 02 01:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Chase and AmEx are in the lead. | Apr 02 01:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Visa offered Apple $100 million to demand that the next bank use Visa as the payment network. | Apr 02 01:23 |
| IsambardPrince | This is insane. | Apr 02 01:23 |
| IsambardPrince | If AmEx gets the contract, Visa won't be the payment network. | Apr 02 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Because AmEx is their own payment network. | Apr 02 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | I think Visa is trying to help JP Morgan Chase get the Apple Card. | Apr 02 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | Visa has nothing to lose if Chase gets burned on this. | Apr 02 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | They get the network fees whether the customers default on the card or not. And Chase would take the losses. | Apr 02 01:25 |
| IsambardPrince | So essentially they're offering Apple a cut of the network fee to handle the volume of payments. | Apr 02 01:29 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | with Apple(r) logo | Apr 02 01:30 |

| IsambardPrince | $30-40 million to him is small potatoes.

| IsambardPrince | The only reason he's interested in using Trump as a meat puppet is the Constitution says Musk couldn't be the president, but he's figured out a way on paper, where Trump is the president, but Musk is the one running everything. | Apr 02 01:59 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | (which happens, they don't like you) | Apr 02 03:02 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], It's not legal to sell ammo to people who don't have a valid FOID. | Apr 02 03:03 |
| IsambardPrince | You have to get on the computer and check the state police website and enter the type of ammunition they buy and their FOID number. | Apr 02 03:03 |
| IsambardPrince | It will tell you if it's approved or not. | Apr 02 03:03 |
| IsambardPrince | It's also illegal to be in possession of ammunition without a FOID. | Apr 02 03:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | they don't care | Apr 02 03:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | illegal things are doing in spite of laws | Apr 02 03:04 |
| IsambardPrince | You can go to jail for up to a year if you would have been eligible for a FOID and just didn't get one, or 3-5 years if you were not eligible. | Apr 02 03:04 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | we'll soon have a big new series | Apr 02 03:07 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Needless to say, dumb people do things that make it obvious they'll get caught. | Apr 02 03:07 |
| IsambardPrince | Like....don't pay your insurance so they cancel your plate. | Apr 02 03:07 |
| IsambardPrince | Then you get pulled over with guns and drugs on top of the seat. | Apr 02 03:07 |
| IsambardPrince | Where was the root of the problem? | Apr 02 03:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Well, little things lead to big things. | Apr 02 03:08 |
| IsambardPrince | If you pay your insurance, come to a complete stop at the stop sign, go the speed limit, make sure all your equipment is working properly and there's nothing hanging off the car, renew your plates, renew your license. Throw the illegal drugs and guns under the seat or in the trunk. | Apr 02 03:09 |
| IsambardPrince | 99% reduction in the odds of getting caught. Maybe more. | Apr 02 03:09 |
| IsambardPrince | The people who get caught with guns and drugs, or anything like that really, they're the dumbest ones. | Apr 02 03:09 |
| IsambardPrince | They walk around or drive aggressively, calling attention to themselves. | Apr 02 03:10 |
| IsambardPrince | You should really be carrying a smaller gun with you if you conceal and carry. | Apr 02 03:11 |
| IsambardPrince | If you need more than 6-7 shots it may be the other guy that wins, you know. | Apr 02 03:11 |

| IsambardPrince | Maybe Elon Musk couldn't buy the election there. | Apr 02 03:21 |
| IsambardPrince | Maybe his toxicity even cost the Republicans another court seat. | Apr 02 03:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | This toxicity is a selling point in some circles | Apr 02 03:24 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | it's also a matter of orientation | Apr 02 03:26 |
| IsambardPrince | The results so far suggest that he got trounced. | Apr 02 03:26 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | to some people musk doing hail hitler is not a turnoff | Apr 02 03:26 |
| IsambardPrince | With a 2 seat majority, the Democrats can throw out the Congressional gerrymander. | Apr 02 03:26 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and in some SF circles saying s* and f* and saying you want to stab or punch some people is "haha, so funny!" | Apr 02 03:26 |
| IsambardPrince | Musk wanted the Republicans in the majority so that they could uphold that when it reaches the court. | Apr 02 03:26 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], This is big because throwing it out in time for next year's midterms could cost the Republicans two seats in the House. | Apr 02 03:27 |
| IsambardPrince | Musk was on stage and he said he wanted the voters to put in the Republican so they could control the majority from the Wisconsin House Delegation. | Apr 02 03:28 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Musk also has cases involving Wisconsin and Tesla. | Apr 02 03:29 |
| IsambardPrince | So he wanted a judge he bought and paid for to decide that too obviously. | Apr 02 03:29 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], This has the potential to remake Wisconsin. | Apr 02 04:10 |
| IsambardPrince | Robyn Voss has only been able to hold onto his majority in the legislature due to dirty tricks and mapmaking. | Apr 02 04:11 |
| IsambardPrince | The guy is a major league dickhead. | Apr 02 04:11 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | so maybe cheeto will hire him | Apr 02 04:11 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | like dejoy and acosta | Apr 02 04:11 |
| IsambardPrince | I'm happy that the election went the way it did today. | Apr 02 04:11 |
| IsambardPrince | We'll probably also see them throw out "Right to Work" or at least implement fair maps so the voters can decide the future of that. | Apr 02 04:12 |
| IsambardPrince | "Right to Work" is deceptively named. | Apr 02 04:12 |
| IsambardPrince | It's a law that's designed to dismantle labor unions, it creates no right to have a job. | Apr 02 04:12 |
| IsambardPrince | I voted to pass a Constitutional amendment in Illinois (it did pass) that bans RTW forever. | Apr 02 04:13 |
| IsambardPrince | And in Michigan, the Democrats managed to repeal it. | Apr 02 04:13 |
| IsambardPrince | The first State in 60 years that has. | Apr 02 04:13 |
| IsambardPrince | We need to push back on RTW State by State and if possible enact amendments that prevent it from ever returning. | Apr 02 04:14 |
| IsambardPrince | The less workers in this country that are subject to it, the better. Then labor unions will start making a comeback. | Apr 02 04:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <IsambardPrince> "Right to Work" is deceptively named. | Apr 02 04:17 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Things are going to get a lot more lopsided in this country. | Apr 02 06:03 |
| IsambardPrince | You know, with the federal grants being cut and the SALT tax cap potentially being raised a lot to compensate. | Apr 02 06:04 |
| IsambardPrince | SALT deduction only really matters much if you live in a State with high taxes of its own. | Apr 02 06:04 |
| IsambardPrince | Otherwise it's never going to be worth it. | Apr 02 06:04 |
| IsambardPrince | But the nature of about half the States is, they'll never raise taxes for any reason because they don't care how well anyone there lives. | Apr 02 06:05 |
| IsambardPrince | So while all the States could raise taxes and tell you "Well, deduct the amount you paid us on your federal return.", many won't. | Apr 02 06:06 |
| IsambardPrince | I think that what Illinois needs to do is promote itself as a less expensive alternative to California. You know, I think Governor Pritzker has been doing a decent job of that. We've gotten some new investments from IBM and Google. | Apr 02 06:07 |
| IsambardPrince | I think one thing California has that's a serious problem is all these voter initiatives. | Apr 02 06:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Where there's like 100 of them on every election and people just vote without being educated or considering the issue. | Apr 02 06:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Then they pass laws that make everything from property tax to home insurance, just every aspect of life worse somehow because it seemed like a good idea at the time, then you can never get rid of it. | Apr 02 06:09 |
| IsambardPrince | Like the senior property tax freeze. | Apr 02 06:09 |
| IsambardPrince | A bunch of Boomers are laughing because their property tax can't go up, even if they're rich. | Apr 02 06:09 |
| IsambardPrince | Nobody looked at the budgetary impact of these things. | Apr 02 06:10 |
| IsambardPrince | Nobody considered if it was fair. | Apr 02 06:11 |
| IsambardPrince | Nobody considered what it would do to the economy, or the market for housing. | Apr 02 06:11 |

| IsambardPrince | The Republicans are losing their grip on the State. | Apr 02 08:32 |
| IsambardPrince | Last year, the state supreme court threw out an extreme gerrymander of the state legislative maps, and the Republicans lost their super-majorities. | Apr 02 08:33 |
| IsambardPrince | This year, the Democrats picked up another supreme court seat, and the school superintendent. | Apr 02 08:33 |
| IsambardPrince | So they control all the statewide offices and the Supreme Court, and brought the Republicans down to a simple majority in the legislature. | Apr 02 08:33 |
| IsambardPrince | Probably next on the menu is throw out the state's law (not fully in effect) that bans abortion, then someone will ask them to through out the House maps. | Apr 02 08:34 |
| IsambardPrince | If they do, they'll have to pass new maps or end up with court-ordered maps for the midterms. | Apr 02 08:34 |
| IsambardPrince | It's gerrymandered so badly that no matter how the maps are written, the Democrats will pick up at least one seat in Congress. | Apr 02 08:34 |

| IsambardPrince | I got an ad in my gmail that they want field officers at all their locations in the country including Chicago. | Apr 02 21:46 |
