I wonder how Paul Ryan and other Republicans feel about Walmart's "free lunch"

We frequently hear conservative Republicans whining about poor kids that get free lunches in school and families that get by with the help of food stamps.  However, they almost never talk about corporate welfare programs that help make the Walton family among the richest in the history of the world.

Read Walmart's own filings with the SEC and you'll find that the company acknowledges that a big portion of its profitability comes from the fact they they do it by underpaying employees and letting them rely on public assistance.  This is why I refuse to shop at +Walmart. I'd rather support companies like +Costco that pay employees a living wage and benefits but still manage to make a lot of money. ?

Critics cite irony of annual report filing: ‘This is a company that everywhere it goes it creates poverty’ (By Lauren &helip;

I tried out Microsoft Office Mobile on my phone and my conclusion is simple – Why bother?

After installing, I tried to open up a couple of work documents and the first thing I found was that Office cannot edit .doc files, only .docx. Even with a docx file, you can't much more than basic text editing.  There is no support at all for tracked changes, an important feature for anyone doing collaborative work.  

For the same free price as MS Office Mobile, you can also get Quickoffice or Documents to Go, both of which support multiple file formats

Docs to go also supports tracked changes. Don't waste your time installing this.?

The +Cadillac ELR "Poolside" ad a few weeks ago was pretentious and annoying, this new ad for the +Ford Motor Company C-MAX Energi is not!?

Ford’s Takedown Of The Cadillac ‘Poolside’ Ad Is Perfect
Why do we work so hard? So we can watch our boss parade around his pool in shorts ranting about why France doesn’t go to the moon? Some of us have actual stuff to do, says Ford, in this clever sendup of the infamous Cadillac ELR ad.

The why is far more important than the how at any age 

This entry was posted in GPCP Uncategorized on by (updated 3379 days ago)
As you get deeper into any subject, the why inevitably becomes more complex and its important to develop solid foundation of understanding why things work the way they do. 

With that knowledge of the why, you can always derive the how, but the opposite can be much harder.  

Conservatives always seem to like to fall back on the bible for excuses although they rarely live up to the most important lessons.  One of the wisest things written in there is "give someone a fish and they eat for a day, teach them to fish and they eat for a lifetime"

Teaching the why is the equivalent of teach someone to fish. Sadly, those with all the power and wealth, don't want the masses to understand the why, lest they realize they are being oppressed and rise up to usurp the powerful.

Reshared post from +Melina M

Here's a comment I spotted on an article posted on +TheBlaze just now. Do you think this person is trolling or genuinely thinks that understanding why something works the way it does is harmful to children's mental state? And what is your opinion?

"These school prison camps should be teaching kids how to get math answers, not why the answer is what it is. No wonder kids get rebellious when kids are told to question everything. “Do it this way because I say so” should be enough for children. No wonder this country is falling apart."?
