    Isn't it presidential to test women as objects? Is Hillary really going to go after Trump on this? Really?

    Not that I disagree with your overall point, but where are you getting that statistic? Do you really know how well schools are dealing with it? Or failing to deal with it?

    Alabama can't even see 98% from where things stand.

    Every one of your attacks/assumptions about Trump come across as your own twisted sexual fantasies.

    If Freud were around to read Starman's posts, he'd think, "Holy fuck, this guy."

    Local schools have been struggling with this issue. It's cropped up in numerous places with inconsistent policies from district to district. They were also asking for guidance in light of both the national discussion that's going on - thanks to the lunacy of North Carolina's leadership - and the Fourth Circuit's recent decision in G.G. v. Gloucester County School Board.

    That Times article is really weak sauce.

    Calling it like I see it.

    He likes beautiful women. So ?

    He puts women in positions of power. And ?

    He prefers women maintain a healthy weight. So he's like TigerVols ?

    My problem with him is that he's a simpleton with no grasp of policy-- economic, governmental or otherwise.

    He wouldn't hire him to do this job.

    It was the same investment with the same financial institution. Nice try, though.

    Why does the same investment outpace inflation when the market determined interest rates and then grossly underpace inflation during a time when rates are being artificially kept low?

    Rates aren't artificially low. The Fed sets rates based on a dual mandate and used basically the same exact criteria to set those rates from '91 through '96 as it does now. Please go read about it as I don't have time to explain it to you.

    Whether or not interest rates are optimal is an open question, but there shouldn't be any doubt that the rates themselves set artificially.

    Yes, rates are set by human beings based on a huge set of criteria with two objectives.
