"Last year, M&M’s unveiled a new look for the red, green, brown, orange, blue and yellow M&M. The intention was to give candies a “fresh, modern take.” Among the changes? The Green M&M’s go-go boots were swapped out with “cool, laid-back sneakers to reflect her effortless confidence. People had opinions on the change, igniting a series of memes and even controversy. (The brand also introduced a purple M&M in September.)"
“In the last year, we’ve made some changes to our beloved spokescandies. We weren’t sure if anyone would notice. And we definitely didn’t think it would break the internet. But now we get it — even a candy’s shoes can be polarizing. Which was the last thing M&M’S wanted since we’re all about bringing people together.”
Sheesh. The new Republican party are a bunch of Donnie/Debbie downers. They need to be exiled.

Seriously.
Is this really a thing? It's funny/notfunny but it really gets right to the heart of the matter. Republicans have turned into the laziest, most entitled governing body in the history of the United States. These guys will resort to anything to get out of doing their job or any kind of work, for that matter. They are the single biggest group of slackers in American History.
So this is what they're doing instead of studying Russian History, and the way they're fixing to sell out to Putin shows they're clearly unfamiliar with that; worldwide markets, trading trends and standards, current logistical standards and trends, and the real life balance between labor and industry required for our economic system to operate? They've become so fixated on fixing the game, that they're lost track of the fact that the only purpose of a free state is to maintain a level playing field. The government isn't a player, it's the referee.
I could go on with real specific examples from the campaign trail, but I wouldn't want to bore you.
This sort of stuff just really pisses me off though. They'll bitch about anything to get out of work.
