Income inequality in the way it is measured [[by quintiles/quartiles of the population) is largely irrelevant and is discussed only because the average person is not very bright and politicians can...

In this instance, and in many others related to government / policy, there are simply no "solutions," only trade-offs. The legislature exists to determine if the trade-offs of any particular policy...

Gilbert was the runner-up in the bidding for the Milwaukee Brewers in the early 2000s so he has definite past interest in owning a MLB team.

The more I hear Chris talk, the more convinced I am that he is going to turn out to be a real donkey. There is absolutely no accountability in the Red Wings organization anymore. Management operates...

With there being a vast amount of vacant land within a few miles of the arena, I am sure a Pistons practice facility could very easily be built with all the offices and amenities the heart desires.

This is great stuff. I'm assuming it's against the law, but it would be sweet to see the inside of mcs with that thing. I guess you'd also risk losing a drone worth at least a couple thousand dollars...
