Thanks for the laugh.

Why doesn’t he just go “a vote for me is a vote for Kamala” like a good octogenarian instead of trying to fool everyone into thinking he will last another 4 years…

What you describe is just another example of poor urban planning + untapped market of public transport.

It’s why big business donates to both parties. Even democrats can be fooled by the corporate propaganda and they all got fundraising targets to meet if they want to keep their seat.

Shit legislation with lack of price-negotiation through collective bargaining, is the main issue, costs land at the individual enduser in the end. They could’ve likely gotten half the money and save the twins but instead they’ll get none with that pricetag calculated from putting a number to the value of a human life - that makes most insurers pull out the fineprint and drop coverage overnight…

With the naming schemes going on for GOP legislation, that would only tell you that they do everything to hide the actual effects under some nice boilerplate names just to help sell it to their constituents, like if people they elect would never lie to them.

While you have a point you might consider what little free time young people have is largely spent on social media full of dark patterns and negative feedback loops and/or gaming stuffed with gambling. One does not detract from the other problems you outline. “Phone bad” holds true as long as these big corporations insist on regulating themselves when all they do is feed people propaganda to keep anything from changing.

It’s because they all basically grew out of Heinlein’s hero soldier ideas.

Given the size of Barry I think it’s safe to assume he detests it.

Isn’t this why you have the VP running mates? You vote for them just as much.

They fund their political campaigns via taxes and put limits on spending and campaign seasons, just buy european-made instead if you’re a fan.

Every 4 years is really a choice between conquest or making the economy go brrr.

Scared into submission while getting squeezed out of every cent.

We should be asking why the machine only has two buttons, starting from a low bar and only going lower.

A result of FPTP-voting and the way campaigns are financed. What you get is exactly what the old roman aristocrats intended, when they designed this system over 2 millenia ago to maintain influence: keeping money where the power is and vice versa.

Probably just a fool thinking free fusion energy was just around the corner

Oil barrons merely see global warming as yet another catastrophe to take advantage of for power and profit, they will have their companies pump oil til there’s not a single drop left to pump anywhere, using every excuse they can find to keep pumping and polluting while evading taxes and regulation as much as possible. They are evil scum and belong in jail for their lies and behavior.

Indeed, get a vaporizer!
