FAA’s close ties to Boeing questioned after 2 deadly crashes
For more than six decades, the Federal Aviation Administration has relied on employees of airplane manufacturers to do government-required safety inspections as planes are being designed or assembled.But critics say the system, dubbed the “designee program,” is too cozy as company employees do work for an agency charged with keeping the skies safe while being paid by an industry that the FAA is regulating.

OP/ED

Of Course College Admissions Rigged for the Rich. The Whole Economic System Is
The children of working stiffs learned a brutal lesson this week as federal prosecutors criminally charged rich people with buying admission to elite universities for their less-than-stellar children.The lesson is that no matter how hard you work, no matter how smart or talented you are, a dumb, lazy rich kid is going to beat you.It’s crucial that everyone who is not a wealthy movie star, hedge fund executive, or corporate CEO—that is, 99 percent of all Americans—sees this college admissions scandal for what it really is: a microcosm of the larger, corrupt system that works against working people, squashing their chances for advancement.This system is the reason that rich people and corporations got massive tax breaks last year while the 99 percent got paltry ones. It is the reason the federal minimum wage and the overtime threshold are stuck at poverty levels. It is the reason labor unions have dwindled over the past four decades.

In Salinas, Puerto Rico, Vulnerable Americans Are Still Trapped in the Ruins Left by Hurricane Maria
Nearly a year and a half after Hurricane Maria, about three-fourths of the houses in the Sierra Brava neighborhood of Salinas, Puerto Rico stand battered and empty.Some families left because their homes were rendered uninhabitable and they had no money to fix them. Others left because they lost their jobs. In responding to Maria, federal agencies had hired some local people, but just for a few months; meanwhile, many other jobs disappeared and have not come back.Sierra Brava lies low along the south side of PR Route 3 in the shadow of Salinas City Hall. Go for a walk through its now largely silent streets, and one residence in particular will catch your eye. On a corner along Calle Abraham Peña, the neighborhood’s four-block-long main avenue, stands a small grey house trimmed in bright blue and topped by a blue plastic tarp. It is in even worse shape than some of the abandoned houses. But Wilma Miranda Ramos still calls it home.

New York's Hudson Yards is an ultra-capitalist Forbidden City
We love it here because we love you here,” read the enormous ad covering the side of a red double-decker New York City tour bus, touting H&M’s new Hudson Yards location. The slogan is a lie. Hudson Yards does not love you. We do not love Hudson Yards. And we especially do not love it here, in a city that is desperately trying to maintain the illusion that we are all something more than props in a metropolis-sized variety show put on for the benefit of bored hedge fund employees.Hudson Yards, the biggest private real estate development in US history, may be slightly less offensive to the memory of Jane Jacobs than a freeway running through Greenwich Village, but not by much. As urban planning visions go, it is a familiar one: an ultracapitalist equivalent of the Forbidden City, a Chichen Itza with a better mall and slightly better-concealed human sacrifice. The development has been dubbed a “billionaire’s fantasy city”, but it is something more sinister than that. It is a billionaire’s reality city. The other 8.6 million of us are just character actors in this drama starring the most unbearable people you can imagine.

So most of the positions in Nepal are vacant now? The communists are literally the ruling party in Nepal

Capitalism is all about gaslighting your victims as the real abusers.

Nepal has like 15 communist parties.

Dude livestreamed it on facebook and showed his mug to the camera lmao

He should at least catch knee to the mouth.

They fused and it's only some Juche guys ruling over an self governing city with a middle class farmer thing my dad was a part of and some stray Maoists left.

Fucking nobody is going to be that upset about losing their visas and the attempt to directly attack the ICC is blatant and not going to go over well with anyone.

Jfc, can we stop it with this Harry Potter shit.

Someone should write a follow-up where Hermoinie is the ineffective president of a magical weimar republic who comes to the realization that Voldemort was just the system taken to its logical conclusions.
She'd then be toppled by insurrectionaries who would destroy the magistry of magic and make magic available to all, even muggles, thus ending all labour, sickness and suffering forever.

Yeah.

That'd be a good book

Let em fuck Goblin, Veela and Magical Being since Wizard Genes are shit.

Annoyed every mainstream media outlet is hellbent on hunting down that massacre video, the more exposure it gets among the general public the better. Imagine major news publications showing it, Zig Forumstards would get hunted down en masse afterwards
As things are now though you can only find it on shady websites where it only serves as masturbation fuel for lunatics.

Why are there only so few PPH on this board? Are you scared of Zig Forums now?
