That is also my point. Don't worry though, you keep impeaching him until he dissolves congress.

You're response being 'yeah but you can be impeached multiple times' exactly demonstrates the weakness of that action.

Yep that's my point

Didn't you guys try that before?

That goes without saying. You bringing it up what people are down-voting, because of the implication that this somehow justifies the actions of the IDF in Palestine.

0.1% would be generous for how many people should be happy.

Why does any one employee have the ability to unilaterally move this much value? Even in non-malicious circumstances that doesn't seem like a good way of organising a currency?

Why disappointing? I think it looks promising,lalthough the chances of it reaching the heights of S1 are low.

If he ever denies team orders to switch the cars they'll stick someone else in the seat

The plot has already being discussed at length. I want to talk about quidditch.

Quick recap, in quidditch, scoring goals scores 10 or 20 points, catching the snitch scores 150 points, and ends the game. This effectively means that the only way a team can catch the snitch and lose is if they are over 150 points behind.

As a result of this, logically the seaker should not attempt to catch the snitch if the score is this unfavourable, meaning the game is always decided by the seaker, and nothing anyone else is doing remotely matters. Remember also we see the audience is rarely able to see what the seeker is doing from the stands.

Now you may say "what about the world cup in book 4, Krumm catches the snitch and still loses". This can only be attributed to Krumm got mad at his team, or maybe bored, otherwise he should just wait and see if his team can score a goal or two. If the other team's seaker catches the snitch you lose anyway, so why even try until it's going to win you the game? Maybe he was showing off to Hermione.

We also know for certain that this happens very rarely, as the odds given to the twins by Ludo Bagman are very high, leading to a big payout. Therefore quidditch is entirely decided by something that happens well out of sight of the audience, and would be terrible to watch or play.

As an aside, the rules around catching the snitch leading to a draw are never mentioned, but I assume they have some penalty shootout system

The students union exists to put pressure on the university, but at least in the UK it is essentially toothless, as the only thing universities care about is fees being paid, and if you don't pay you are kicked out.

Anything they do at the request of the SU is essentially voluntary on the part of the university.
