    ... newest automaker prancing at the LGBTQ parade? You're not going to believe this:

    Ferrari's Commitment To 'Diversity And Inclusivity' Called Out For Supreme Hypocrisy | ZeroHedge

    Yup. Like Jaguar? Ferraris are now gay guy cars. If you can believe that? If you're a straight white-boy, without an LGBTQ social credential. Sorry, pal. Can't buy a Ferrari.

    You'll have to buy yours, second-hand. From a gay guy -

    Not a homophobe - so I'm fresh out of rats at the moment.

    Gays must be moving up in the world.
    I'm old enough to remember when people were using 'gay' as a pejorative to describe Priuses.

    Now if you can only get them out of the garage.........

    We do not have "universal civic duty" (mandatory) voting in our nation as they do in some of the more authoritarian nations - nor do we require a majority for most federal elections.
    A plurality will usually suffice - unless it does not.
    We do require a majority and not a plurality to elect our chief executive - but we also do not elect that person by popular vote.

    Don't feel bad if you don't understand it.
    Most of our citizens were horribly underserved by our primary education system - and most of them do not get it either.
    OH?
    I don't know.
    If you're talking about our latest Presidential election I might advise you to adjust the focus on your spyglass.

    'One' of our candidates had 1.5 giga-bucks to play with and wound up millions in the hole after a failed attempt trying to beat the most unpopular person on the planet since the mid 1940's - who had substantially less money to play with.

    As it turns out - you actually have to be a decent candidate.
    One of our BEST state governors had boocoodles of bucks in the Presidential primary, and he lost because he is a superb executive but he didn't scale up in the big race.
    The other party decided to forego the primary and.....well......you know what they say about democracies! ;)

    Money is a 'thing' but it isn't THE thing.

    I'm guessing they are going for the demographic with the most disposable income. No wife and kids to trade you in for a younger model and take the house and anything of value. No concerns about putting money away for the future or their kids future, live for today. A flash mansion with all the latest interior decor, pool, garden and staff to maintain it, not their thing, dress flashy and an accessory vehicle to match, that's where the money goes .....

    I simply say that Jaguar went 100% with this. If top poster imagines a competition with Ferrari, those boys have yet to shoot back.
