I could imagine some sort of manipulation, but for the specific video of the the specific words came out of the mouth those people, can you please explain to me how the video fabricated the whole thing?

xname2on Massachusetts to tax ride-hailing apps, give the money to taxis

Are uber drivers "working people"? Are some uber users "working people"?

xname2on Massachusetts to tax ride-hailing apps, give the money to taxis

uber is not a taxi company

xname2on Massachusetts to tax ride-hailing apps, give the money to taxis

It should be totally opposite:

1) uber drivers are in lower income than taxis drivers

2) uber economy is new and innovative, while taxi is old and dying

xname2on Study says standardized testing is overwhelming nation’s public schools

One test per major course per school year, how the hell could this be "overwhelming"?

xname2on Baptism by Fire: A New York Firefighter Confronts His First Test (2014)

I really hate this kind of writing. After five paragraphs, I still don't know where it is going. What a waste of my time.

xname2on Universal basic income?: A mapped community argument

In a Universal basic income system, will the government give extra money (or provide extra free service) to people who need more money?

xname2on The 158 Families Funding the 2016 Presidential Election

This is bullsht. How about teachers' unions, the worst poison in U.S. education, contribute millions and millions of dollars to the democrats every year.

Sure, it's not a "family". But teachers' unions collect money from public teachers, who get paid by tax payers. How can they contribute to political party?

When will leftists start to talk about this?

"from Western labs"

xname2on Closing a door

I don't get it.

If you don't like it, just leave, work with another team. It IS that simple.

BUT, don't simply say "xx turns women away", because not every woman is the same.

Can you elaborate what's wrong with this report? Btw, I can't find this news on leftist media, so I submitted the link from examiner.

xname2on Evernote is in deep trouble

It saves webpage / clip as a picture. Really not what I want.

xname2on Evernote is in deep trouble

All I need is a good web clipper like evernote's Clearly, so that I can directly save cleaned webpage to a .doc file in a Dropbox folder. Still can't find one.

Also, why dropbox does not create a simple note taking app, just save notes to a dropbox folder?
