https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/08/02/ann-coulter-says-marijuana-is-making-people-retarded/23062212/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Conservative firebrand Ann Coulter says marijuana is destroying the country. She was speaking at Politicon, a nonpartisan political event over the weekend. Coulter, who has a history of making very controversial — and some might say offensive remarks went off when she was asked whether or not weed should be legal. “You can legalize all the drugs you want when there isn’t a welfare state. No marijuana makes people retarded, especially when they’re young.” he debate started when Coulter’s fellow panelist, Ana Kasparian brought up the racial differences between blacks and whites when it comes to marijuana charges. Coulter pointed to a study that revealed black people are more likely to lie about their weed use than other races. However, she didn’t say who did the study or any information about the study to back up her claim. Meanwhile, Kasparian said no one should be prosecuted for marijuana possession calling it a waste of our resources.)

— No going back: Anthony Scaramucci’s White House job could cost him $7.5 million – Gregory Korte
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/08/03/anthony-scaramuccis-white-house-job-could-cost-him-7-million/531376001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  Anthony Scaramucci took no salary during his short tenure as White House communication director — yet his 10-day career detour could end up costing him more than $7.5 million. That’s because the New York hedge fund founder left the White House before he could obtain a “certificate of divestiture” giving him the special tax treatment available to federal employees who give up assets in order to avoid conflicts of interest. Without that certificate, the sale of Scaramucci’s Skybridge Capital to a Chinese holding company will be taxed at the capital gains rate of 15%. According to Scaramucci’s financial disclosure report, his 43.8% share of the sale is worth at least $50 million; other estimates put that number even higher. The Office of Government Ethics would not comment on whether Scaramucci’s application for that special tax treatment. But granted certificates are a matter of public record, and no such certificate has been granted to Scaramucci. And under OGE regulations, an application must come from a current employee of the executive branch.)

— Facebook makes diversity gains but still struggles in key area – Jessica Guynn  (DIERSEN: To promote diversity is to not hire, to not promote, and to get rid of those who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.  Firestone stores hired me in 1970 because it could not find a qualified minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.  Oldsmobile offered me a job in 1971 because it could not find a qualified minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job.)

MOTLEY FOOL
— 3 Common Retirement Mistakes That Can Put a Crack in Your Nest Egg  Think you have retirement all figured out?

(FRTOM THE ARTICLE: 1. Underestimating health-related expenses  Healthcare is expensive, and you’re more likely to suffer illnesses and injuries as you age. Health problems such as Alzheimer’s and hip fractures from falls are far more common in older adults, and they’re also incredibly expensive to treat. (The average cost to care for a person with Alzheimer’s during the patient’s last five years of life is about $287,000, and the average hospital visit after a fall costs about $30,000.) Medicare will help cover some of the costs of health problems, but that doesn’t mean you won’t have to pay anything out of pocket. You’ll still be responsible for your deductible, coinsurance, and copays, and Medicare doesn’t cover long-term care, eye exams, most dental care, or hearing aids.)
