    Not to mention that they also incentivise players to spend real-world money by having their website have a secret club for whales (I think you need to spend either $1K or $5K in order to have the button appear) to spend even more money then they did to even gain access originally.

    Edit: clarity and conciseness: added "originally" to the end of the last sentence.

    I mean, you can vote and still get paid; I don't live in a swing state but I got a whopping $0.17 for my efforts! It's moreso about getting a voting plan together.

    You didn't read the headline correctly then. It says "With their own cash", which means they're buying this stuff for their classrooms with their own money out of their own pay. There's no federal subsidies for these.

    It was a dud; normally when bombs get dropped and don't explode, they're considered to be a potential hazard at any time, but most people think that these duds are so old they can't possibly be able to explode anymore.

    Legally speaking, walmart can ask to see your receipt, but since it's not a membership store, or has it in their Terms and Conditions of purchasing goods there, they can't stop you from just not showing it
