But FL is the location of MOST of the Trans-Atlantic Cables that connect the internet/banks around the world. It's already BEEN a major Financial Hub.
TX is NOT a lot better, if you ask me, LOL.
Also, where they put these things is usually the BIG NAP (Network Access Point, for the internet). Where they have 911 offices, and tons of backup power.
But mostly because, we are Officially: The Free State of Florida!
Thanks to Governor of my lifetime, Mr. Ron DeSantis! - 77Posted by mccannon01 3 days, 8 hours ago to Moving The NYSE To Some Other CityI heard that. My thought are why would they build such a major financial hub in a hurricane zone?
- 78Is it possible to nationalize an entity like the NYSE?
- 79Posted by CaptainKirk 3 days, 8 hours ago to Pocahontas Is Retarded memesThat first one. The follow-up question should be:
So, you are okay with Capital Punishment if they register to vote. And if they actually vote, Everyone involved in that chain, from whomever gave them a license, up to the Supervisor of Elections faces capital punishment as well? - 80Posted by CaptainKirk 3 days, 8 hours ago to The Left Is Using Kids As A Trojan Horse For Total Online SurveillanceIt's for the kids.
If it saves Just One Life!
Whenever you hear these things. RUN. Or Fight.
It's to brainwash or manipulate the kids.
It's to get the kids accustomed to NOT having a 4th amendment right.
So, when they take it away... the population shill shrug.
Same thing they did to the church, Marriage, the nuclear family.
Not to mention punishment in school.
I'm just popping the popcorn. - 81Posted by CaptainKirk 3 days, 8 hours ago to Moving The NYSE To Some Other CityHe, of course, lives like a wealthy capitalist.
LOL - 82Posted by CaptainKirk 3 days, 8 hours ago to Moving The NYSE To Some Other CityMiami is finally becoming the financial hub (this time with "Legit" firms, not just Drug Money, LOL)
- 83The problem with all this is that liberals make the mistake of thinking we are as stupid as they are.
And with Thune,. they apparently are correct! - 84I saw a post either on Facebook or Instagram (which means it may or may not be true) that stated flat out that a good bit of the Financial District is moving to Plano, TX. (I checked, and that's mainly true.)
Plano is a rapidly-growing suburb of DFW, for those of you who don't know. I lived there for 14 years before we moved to Tulsa, and we moved out at the time Toyota was building their headquarters there. We did well on the sale of our house. The buyers literally did not enter the house (they used a RE agent) until after the sale closed. If we'd waited another six months, we'd have done even better.
All that to say: Texas treats businesses much better than NY ever did or will. - 85IN EARILIER DAYS WHEWN I LEARED TO TYPE ON A MANUAL I TYPED 95 WPM..THIS CRAZY KEYBOARD WON'T LET ME EVEN TYPE WITHOUT Watching it. nb

- 89Posted by Dobrien 3 days, 11 hours ago to If you want to see somebody lie to Congress tomorrow...Continue…. On a Saturday afternoon we were sitting at the end of a forty foot board room table with floor to ceiling windows 70 stories up overlooking A much safer and beautiful downtown MInneapolis.
They wanted Lauren to be the front and center victim in a lawsuit against the Pharma giant Baxter. The had her go see an infectious disease specialist for treatment and he wanted her to start on 6 million units of interferon per week for 6 months , oh yea , and it was experimental for children .
I said we would think about it.
Then the lawyers wanted another blood sample sent to the CDC to be tested again. Another long wait and no results so I called Fauci again this time he remembered me and said it should be completed soon and he would get the results to the MD. At that time I then asked him what the hell was he thinQing putting Hep C infected people in the donor pool. See I can’t keep my trap shut . He was actually shocked that I knew he had been part of that decision. But the fact was by that time I knew more about Hep C and the prognosis , the progression and the treatments than almost anyone. On the planet.
He recovered his composure and told me that they thought it was” the best science at the time”.
Sound familiar? Anyway , soon the result of the test came back and it was negative. We were told she was the first person to have become disease free from that incurable disease. The lawyers dropped her like a hot potato. As a stock broker I was following the news on Baxter closely and I saw another Texas firm had a Class action suit against Baxter. I contacted them , I was given a long list of tasks to complete to participate and the deadline was fast approaching. I got everything together and in time. I verified it with the Atty gal in Texas that the mail beat the deadline. Now she just had to be approved by the judge? Anyway a full 2 weeks after the deadline had passed we got a letter from the hospital that this class action suit might be something we should look into because Lauren had after all been treated wirth Gammagard. My wife and I have never ever trusted any Doctors at face value without me doing the research on what they say or recommend. We have zero trust in big Pharma.
And the whole healthcare system can just plain FuQ off. We are our own advocates in that cesspool that has some wonderful people but they are few and far between. - 90Posted by Dobrien 3 days, 11 hours ago to If you want to see somebody lie to Congress tomorrow...When my daughter Lauren was 8 1/2 years old Jan 1993 . Wasn’t feeling well with a sore throat ,she was diagnosed with Strep Throat. They prescribed a new drug for her condition. Within 2 days of having the medicine her condition deteriorated to the point of me having to carry her in to the ER. She was diagnosed with an acute case of autoimmune hemolytic anemia AHIA. That was a side effect supposedly 1 in 100,000 of the strep drug. Essentially her white blood cells were eating her red blood cells. Her Hemoglobin in blood carries oxygen from the respiratory organs (e.g. lungs or gills) to the rest of the body (i.e. tissues). There it releases the oxygen to permit aerobic respiration to provide energy to power functions of an organism in the process called metabolism. A healthy individual human has 12 to 20 grams of hemoglobin in every 100 mL of blood. My Daughters count was 4 grams. The Doctors immediately gave her a blood transfusion
And the specialist MD diagnosed her and prescribed GammaGard for A week 2 days in the hospital and then 5 days at home. This medication is made from human blood From hundreds of donors. With out the strep medicine(poison) and the infusion of hemoglobin
She seemed to recover. But was being watched carefully. About a month later , I see a small article in the paper that says 7 people contracted hepatitis C from Gammagard and that’s about it. I ask the MD about it and he new nothing about it.
He then said she didn’t have GammaGuard, I disagreed and he asked the nurse and she confirmed the I was right. He then said he would look into it. The response was 3 experts from the CDC infectious disease , The National Institute of health , The National liver foundation had agreed and made a change allowing infected Hepatitis C people to donate blood for Gammagard. The reason(science) was they said that they thought that the recipient of the diseased peoples blood would have anti-bodies and in essence Vaccinate people from Hep C. Well they passed the disease
On at least. The next step was to send my little girls blood sample to Atlanta and the CDC infectious disease lab to have the new but now infamous PCR test. in 93 the results were expected in about 9 mos. Life went on but we had to limit our daughters activity to not have her pass it on to other children and siblings. Sad and scary days for her. Anyway after nine months and no results , I called The CDC and was put through to none other than Fauci. I explained the reason for the call and he put me on hold . Soon he came back on the line and said he had two blood samples from St. Paul with the initials LO and my daughters birthdate. He said no instructions came with the blood in his gravely voice and I told him why it was sent. I gave him the Md’s name and the hospital. He assured me a result would be sent in 6 weeks. After 6 weeks we were told the result was positive. Shortly after that we were invited to the prestigious law firm Robbins, Kaplin Miller and Ciresi. They had won the huge case in Bhopal India against Union Carbide
In 1989, UCC paid $470 million (equivalent to $907 million in 2021) to settle litigation stemming from the disaster 9000+ permanently injured and estimate that 8,000 died within two weeks, and another 8,000 or more have since died from gas-related diseases. Plus the had won a billion dollar suit against the tobacco co.s. - 91Posted by mccannon01 3 days, 13 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONThumbs up on all that, JakeOrilley! Enjoyed camping year around as an assistant scout master for a couple of years. Winter camping on the back side of Bristol mountain (opposite Bristol ski resort NY) in January with the troop was a hoot. Also tent camped in the Adirondacks, but in the heat of summer. Wonderful experiences.

there. He say Fauci is NUTS. NB - 93Posted by 73SHARK 3 days, 23 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER LEFTOVERSI'll bet it's one of these with a flat membrane type keyboard like laptops or a Mac. I detest the keyboard that doesn't have movable keys that you can actually touch and causes something to happen mechanically. Of course I learned to type on a mechanical typewriter which was more difficult than a standard computer keyboard with movable keys.

- 95Posted by JakeOrilley 4 days, 1 hour ago to IN THE MEME TYME SUNDAY PAPER EDITIONYeah - I used to tramp around NY, around the Elmira area, and upstate - went camping in the Adirondacks in the winter in a tent - loved it at the time!
But would not do that now on a bet - Waaaay too old for that kind of nonsense.....but did love it at the time.
Hate that due to the politics/costs/restrictions that sooo many young will not have that opportunity... it was a great time to clear my head, and realize that I could do whatever I wanted to do if I REALLY wanted to, and if I messed up - would be dead. Had to plan, had to realize limitations, knew what I had on my back was all that was available.
The wilds of the State of New York provided me many of life lessons. I did not follow all of them, and forgot a few of them over the years....
But I do not believe that if many of the things that were taught me there had not been taught me I would not have done as well as I had. - 96EXCUSE MY SPELLING...NEW KEYBOARD AND I hate it.nb
- 97i AGREE WITH YOU COMPLETELY. THE APTS I LIC=VE IN ARE 58 YEARS POLD. THEY WERE BUILT BY AN EXCELLENT BUILDER. BUT HAVING OWNERS WHO LIVE 200 MILES AWAY AND A MANAGER WHOWAS LAZY, THEY HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF DAMAGE. OWNERSHIP HAS CHANGED TWIICE SINCE I MOVED BACK IN AND EACH NEW OWNER HAS HIS/HER OWN GOALS. THE MOST RECENT ON IS CONCENTRANING ON THE OUTSID AND DOING NOTHING ABOUT THE INSIDE AND THE RENT HAS JUMPED UP 45%,
- 98Posted by freedomforall 4 days, 2 hours ago to Moving The NYSE To Some Other CityWherever it goes it has to control local government so the stealing for profit can continue unabated.
NYC's entire economy has been dependent on the banking/WS cartel for a century.
Leaving would drive a final nail into the socialist coffin. - 99Posted by $ Abaco 4 days, 4 hours ago to Trump CDC Director Nominee Touts ‘Safe and Effective’ mRNA Tech, Vows to ‘Never Betray the Science’After all my years in the medical industry, in engineering, and raising a vaccine-injured child…I am sure that vaccines in the US have created brain damage, cancer, pediatric asthma and diabetes, and autism. Because of this I’ll leave before ever being forced to comply.
