Greetings Webtaculators! Hope everyone remembered to change their clocks. At this point, change it however you feel like. I won’t blame you. Not knowing how to do things seems to be acceptable now. As if I needed another reminder of how not doing your job is ok, I just saw this shitty commercial for the upteenth time. On to the news.
STORY OF THE WEEK (4 min. read)
What: Corrupt President Impeached!
Why: Because in South Korea, being a political liability with dubious ties to shady businesses will lead to a new election. Here, it just leads to further denials of knowing anything. Good Job America!
ECONOMIC THING OF THE WEEK (6 min. read)
What: Bye Bye Federal Government
Why: Because I guess the most recent unemployment numbers were too good, even if Trump is certain that all the ones before this one are phony. Might as well slash the numbers of largest American employer to make up for it. Or just fuck up our healthcare system. Why not both?
LAW THING OF THE WEEK (3 min. read)
