That would have made my day.

Autographs at comic con cost $50. That's just kind of a fact.

At 12am PST
(See that PST? That tells everyone else what timezone we are referring to, and everyone else can calculate out what that means for them. It's not really a complicated science.)

But Han is definitely number 2.

Vader wins though. He's got the best story, he's the chosen one who fulfills the prophecy in the most unexpected way, he is the most feared person in the entire galaxy, he's the most iconic villain in all of movie history, he has a lightsaber... I could go on.

Yeah, I'm not gonna click on that link...

Yes, you are recalling that scene correctly. It was addressed by Robot Chicken here:

However, a plausible explanation is explained here, which I happen to be a fan of:

Donald Trump is Draco Malfoy

I'm confused by some of these comments. Is this not something that everyone does when they eat a candy cane?

The big businesses, yeah sure. But not the 27 million small businesses in this country who would hurt the most by Bernie's ridiculous plans. They would all have to raise their prices in order to pay his absurd taxes and minimum wage. They would be forced to let people go entirely. It's basic business principles. I'm sorry you're too thick to wrap your mind around this. You haven't presented any actual arguments here. You say you don't want government intervention, but you also disagree with my argument about market democracy. Yet this whole post is about Bernie sanders, and you're defending him, so it seems like you actually do what government intervention. You seem extremely uninformed when it comes to economics and business. And since you won't listen to people who are well educated, I won't continue to indulge you. I'm unfollowing this thread.

It's hard to follow your argument because your English is so bad, but you are diagnosing the problem incorrectly at its source. The reason those CEOs and senior officers can do that is because they aren't worried about competition because they have deals made with the government. It's called cronyism. That's where the government gets involved. If you think government intervention isn't the answer, then I guess somewhere in there we agree (again, it's hard for me to follow what exactly you're saying). The system we have isn't capitalism, and no it isn't working. What we have is cronyism, corporatism, and a mild brand of socialism. And it doesn't work at all.

I'm asking about the dollar amount that people bring in per day.

Not sure where this is, but technically it's illegal here in San Francisco, but everybody does it anyway. It's hard to enforce when every car on the road is doing it.

Great argument, there. Sounds like you have the reasoning skills of most Bernie Sanders supporters.

Guest: quick question. Over the last 20 years, as capitalism has spread more and more throughout the world, has the number of people living in poverty increased or diminished or stayed about the same?

But that should be decided in the market, not by some government law. The more power you give to the government, the more freedom they have the power to take away from you. If you don't think juice should cost $3, then don't buy it. If the people as a whole don't think it should cost $3, and they stop buying it, then the juice company will need to lower their prices to stay competitive. It's how the free market works. It's called a democratic market. It keeps businesses in check without giving the government the power to step on everyone. The biggest reason we have inequality today is because the government has gotten so involved in businesses that instead of having to be competitive, businesses only need to suck up to government officials. That's what we need to put an end to. But with Bernie's plan, that will become the ONLY way a company can be successful, thereby destroying all smaller competition and small businesses.

It's true. One of my friends found a quote by the author (I think it was Old Man and the Sea, but it might have been something different. I don't remember. It was like 10 years ago). The quote was the author saying that there is no symbolism and nothing deeper than the surface story. Our english teacher just seemed to glass over and ignore that quote and kept on going as if it didn't matter what the author said about his own story.
