I’d prefer that the people who did the beating not be allowed to be in office anymore. There’s a lot of people on that list.

When Trump dumped a bunch of money on the economy in 2020, he did contribute to a bunch of inflation, yes.

This is why individual insurance is better. You can switch to a better provider without convincing a large bureaucracy first.

Omg, the Evermore one was so bad because it was so good but actually 4 hours long. I lost one whole day of free time to that video. Lol

Everyone is talking past each other on this issue.

Some people who don’t know anything are arguing that enslaved people literally benefited from slavery, but that’s not what started this discussion.

The information is out there if you wanna find it. The truth is most people don’t care, though. That’s on us.

He can decide, and his middle managers can decide, and you can also decide by choosing to shop from somewhere else.

On the other hand, if everyone in the world had your lifestyle the world would be much more wealthy and could make a lot of positive changes.

I think the answer is yes.

Amazon is very much not a monopoly. There are thousands of online retailers. There are also a lot of delivery services, no idea if there are thousands, but there’s a lot.

Correct, the vast majority of people don’t care.

Got a link to a good project of that type? I’ve been thinking about this recently.

Sort of an extension of the constantly growing period of adolescence. Boomers don’t think Gen X and Millennials will do it right, so they hold onto power.

I wonder if agreeing to pay a bunch of tax money into the system and then hoping and praying the government would pay us back in a fair and well managed way was actually a good idea.

Biden IS too old.

And also Trump is too old. And a crazy person. Lol

I mean, the point of it is to deter you from looking at porn in the first place.

Just like random neighbors doing random checkups on people, or like they know somehow what you’re looking at and are confronting you about it? Those are pretty different.

The incentive is already there, it’s just prohibited because of zoning and building codes many places. All the government has to do to fix this is stop getting in the way.

Some do, some don’t. Some just interpret the phrase differently. Some would say guns are already one of the most regulated products so they’re already “well-regulated.” Also the Supreme Court ruled in Heller that despite it saying “militia” the phrase really means individual people, meaning individual people have the fundamental right to possess firearms, etc. So, I think most of these people are not disregarding it, they’re interpreting it a different way. It’s the SCOTUS official interpretation, so it’s not like it’s a crackpot idea even if it’s ultimately wrong. I know I disagree with SCOTUS on a ton of stuff.

I should add in seriousness, I do think it’s important to recognize that laws don’t magically make things go away. Sometimes things are very hard to eliminate, and sometimes prohibition of something actually makes it worse like with the Drug War. But like you said about murder, we don’t say, “murder bans didn’t actually eliminate murder, therefore we might as well get rid of them.”
