Musk’s SpaceX Could Secure Billions in New Contracts Under Trump (Gift Article) Elon Musk’s role in the White House allows him to cancel contracts and influence policy, potentially benefiting his companies. Supporters say he has the best technology.

Elon Musk might be cutting government spending, but not on his own projects — billions in extra federal money is likely headed toward SpaceX, thanks to policy changes that will make the world’s richest man even richer. A NYT investigation examines the Trump-era shift toward SpaceX

Merry Christmas.

Trickle-down economics is a cruel hoax designed to enrich the wealthy and corporations while draining money for the middle class and the poor.

Pass it on to a conservative family member near you.

Federal judge blocks Kroger’s $25 billion mega-merger with Albertsons | CNN Business A federal judge in Oregon blocked Kroger’s proposed $25 billion tie-up with Albertsons, ruling that the largest merger in US supermarket history would limit competition and harm consumers.

A federal judge just blocked Kroger's $24.6B acquisition of Albertsons.

Four corporations control 70% of retail grocery sales in America. Kroger and Albertsons are two of those corporations.

Less competition means more opportunity to price gouge.

This deal was a rotten egg.

Some people might. I sure didn’t have a usb-c wall plug so that extra $20 was infuriating because Apple knew what they were doing.

The standardization is great. But Apple is sending out usb-c to usb-c cables with new phones. This is the cable only excluding the wall plug. They have sent a usb wall plug with every other phone iteration, but now that it’s usb-c they did not include it with the phone. It is an additional purchase.

I remember when you could just buy a computer program like Microsoft Word or Photoshop and just have it on your computer forever without having to pay monthly or yearly. What a time that was
