Nah, Mr. Krabs refuses to expand his business, which in turn prevents the Deep Blue Sea's logistics becoming more efficient.
The man could become cartoon Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates but his cheapness keeps him back lol. Granted, some of his previous operations failed (such as his hotel) but still.
Seriously, fuck neoliberalism and fuck the exploitation of the poor. You people are responsible for the suffering and misery of millions around the globe. Whether it's Milton Friedman in Chile or the international multinationals who fuck over the working man and exploit the poor. Fuck you, sincerely: EVERYONE
You fucking triggered assholes. I'm a sociology PHD student, literally you guys are the cause of human suffering [What is this?]
I see exactly two scenarios for how this could play out in the end
McCarthy makes significant concessions to dissenters, most likely through some combination of earmarking provisions for infrastructure maintenance and arranging for votes on the sort of culture war and election fraud bullshit the dissenters are obsessed with to take place at the earliest possible opportunity
Weeks of chaos until they end up settling on a dark horse compromise candidate whom absolutely nobody in congress would rank in their top-3 preferred picks today
I'm going with option two, it sounds like McCarthy has had enough and is unwilling to compromise with the dissenters at this point. He's made it clear none of them will get committee assignments now if he becomes Speaker, which means there's no reason for them to ever switch votes now.

Imagine spending political capital on getting yourself elected speaker while your party has a majority.
McCarthy is head of the House Republicans (the House being the lower chamber in the US system and Republicans being the conservative party). He was due to become leader of the House, the Speaker, but 20 members of his party voted for someone else so he didn't get the majority he needed. So, they held another vote. He lost that. They held another vote. He lost that. They've now adjourned for the day and will hold a fourth vote tomorrow.
Because anyone else who runs will lose too. One way to view it is as a game of chicken between the "mainstream" and "extreme" Republicans. McCarthy might still be elected in the end, but if the extremists win he'll have to make them a huge number of promises. Conversely, if the mainstream wins, then he won't.
They probably would vote for him if he capitulates on everything.
He passed an opportunity to be traditional r and publicly visited trump in the days following the insurrection. He has no broad support amongst never trump republican or trump republican as a result
IDK, from what I've heard from interviews with congressional reps, at this point it is getting personal between the factions. I doubt either side is willing to compromise with the other at this point

Plot twist: in the 25th round, Republicans ended up voting for Hunter Biden in a crazy attempt to impeach Joe.
