    Kinda crazy story...no clue how this minor detail isn't being talked about. The CEO of Mylan is Heather Bresch, who happens to be the daughter of WV Democratic Senator Joe Manchin (wonder who helps sponsor some of the govt requirements for the Epipen use...). She also managed to up her own salary something like 900% while cranking up the price.

    Maybe if you're a faggot.

    Maybe if you are a faggot ????. Another 8th grade level intellect on display. Care to offer an interesting insightful rebuttal. I bet thats to much to ask .
    Where the fuck do you think you are, Texan?

    Hahaha, oh good lord this is getting good. Lets see. I am setting at my desk running test on a MySql database 34 miles north of Austin Texas. And where are you ? Has 8th grade started in Washington state yet? Still out for summer break ?.

    I use what my clients ask me to use. If I can help them and know the product I dont care. Most of my stuff is Linux based and it ships with MySql but you can get other sql dbms.

    SQL Server is for companies with money that don't know what they are doing and so some MSFT consultant points them at SQL Server.

    That's not irony. That was a strategic move. Just like royal families marrying for more titles, land, blah blah blah.

    Cronyism at it's best, yet few see the irony in Chelsea Clinton marrying a NY hedge fund manager.
    Charity begins at home!

    It still dominates sales at large organizations over SQL Server.

    Most experienced SQL folks still view SQL Server as MSFT's cute toy. It is popular in the PNW since a lot of startups that had former MSFT folks used it (such as Expedia) but many shops won't even let it in their door (such as some of the very large Telecoms) because it is just not solid enough to handle billions of transactions a day.

    You could join them (they aren't really separate tables) using subqueries like this to return their respective rows as separate virtual tables:

    SELECT *
    FROM
    ( SELECT * FROM HardcoreHusky.Members WHERE Name = 'PurpleJ' ) as P
    FULL OUTER JOIN
    ( SELECT * FROM HardcoreHusky.Members WHERE Name = 'Splooge' ) as S

    But unless they share a common key or attribute on which to join, you will just get a cartesian product -- AND NOBODY wants a cartesian product of PurpleJ or Splooge, so it would be best to use a union to just show their rows as follows:

    INSERT INTO HardcoreHusky.Junk

    SELECT * FROM HardcoreHusky.Members WHERE Name = 'PurpleJ'
    UNION ALL
    SELECT * FROM HardcoreHusky.Members WHERE Name = 'Splooge'

    Leave off the INSERT clause if you actually want to see the rows instead of putting them where they belong.

    Can we get back to taking about how government regulations and corruption fucks up the market which allows these things to happen all while dumbshits blame "capitalism"?

    Sure.

    When was the last time the US had pure capitalism? Without any gov't regulation at all?

    HaHa, sorry, that was a trick question. The answer is never. We've had gov't regulation of some sort since the very beginning, started even before we were founded when the King of England granted huge tracts of land (half a state in some cases) to his cronies that became land barons in the US... and gov't regulation has been protecting the property rights of those cronies and their descendants ever since. Shall we do away with the gov't regulating property rights?

    My guess is, you are in favor of the gov't regulation that you like, but you are against the gov't regulation that you don't like.

    AmIRight?
