That is a frightening metric....
That is a frightening metric....
I am not able to vote for that position. My knowledge of the individuals looking for the job is scant at best. The machine analogy is apt as it weighs too many variables, has way too many moving parts and only accepts insiders.
Doesnt capitalism rely on the rubes and suckers for it to work?
I agree but the party needs to have the balls to recognize them and embrace them warts and all. The party machine is also broken.
No she's not stupid she's just another snake in the pit. The rep top down party you kiss ass as much possible for advantage. where in the dem party, well, you tell white lies until your elected and then chase money to get re-elected. I am a dem but this system is broken .
When they start complaining about swimming in the shit they created will they have enough character to recognize their contribution?
Is this really a price control? Capping interest on cards sounds more like evening out access. Collusion is a rule in setting prices in most large service markets not the exception. Collusion is perhaps little much but the guys on top have actuaries and accountants that know when we fart.
The reality of homelessness is not one of funding it is about political will to address the underlying problems. The politicians interests are not about the people but about the corporate profit of their corporate citizens... can you say Citizens United?
"He does not share power" Gandalf to Saruman quote.
I guess it is fiduciary responsibilty vs public good.
I love the post where a canadian says living next to the US is like living in an upstairs apartment above a meth lab the meth lab being the US.
You just firing for effect here? Many of those h1b recipients were educated here at an american college some went to MIT. jusayin
Large class sizes, textbooks by corporations, low teacher salaries AND the raiding of the educational system's funding for the last 40 years might have some impact as well.
No, Learning without passion is a recipe for stupid. oops You mispelled passion...
Are you sure about that? Attitude and work ethic are mostly taught in school with a portion being instilled by good parents.
Elon pay attention to that childs recognition of the human condition and your example.
But remember even in the face of such resignation there are good people.
If jacking up tuition is their response they have the wrong idea about their mission... Truth is there is something terribly wrong with our civilizations definitions of success. I dont have any answers only questions..
Hey lets hack X so we know what they are gonna do.... oh thats right we already know they are gonna do, they are gonna break stuff and we will have to pay to fix it...
Yepper! Dont want to give protection to those who need it as it might cost money.... WTF profit over people... Caveat vendi anyone?
What is your take on free college for all?
Feed them Leviathan.... or feed them to the Leviathan.
Whats your take on free college? Smart informed people make good decisions and if the present is any indication of general smarts perhaps we should put back all the money they took out of the ed budget...
What is GMST?
This really communicates the impact of human activity on the global system..
Merry Merry to all!
You should get points for that!
Wanda Maximov
Too many years we have been either lied to or promised the impossible rage and frustration are to impact our decisions.
Prolem with revolutions is too much stuff gets broken.
it should start with United Fruit.
lol@ it has always and will forever be the russians.
Well Trump would have had to deal with not having a fox news cheerleader squad. I expect his jan 6th bs would have been called out.
My pop, rip, said Reagan could sell a telephone book to folks without phones.
The wolves help keep the elks niche clear of other ruminants? Or more likely the elk and wolves are starting to work together?
Some of that evidence points to people who more powerful than the laws of evidence so the beatings will continue as will human trafficing.... Remember these laws are only supposed to look like they can help.
The Luigi meme.... lol!
Well that is a bit relativist I bet there are yahoos just like him in your nick of the woods...
Yep he does as have most of our elected officials. Are you not a us citizen? Remember just cause you dont know the law it still applies to you.
So true! A gathering of 3 or more intelligent compassionate people will be labeled a violent mob.
You cant get to heaven through a closed door?
One of the really rough things about democracy is there are usually alot of warts and sometimes wannabe despots... Unless he changes the constitution he will be gone in 4 years and if he changes the constitution well that will be that.
I call BS on that we did it to ourselves. When our elections began to be choices of lessor evils and dogwhistles. Trump rode the wave of our collective rage and frustration to the whitehouse.
Lol! Elon is that Alfred? Bruce Wayne's butler?
Gonna be a ride.
Is this the new normal? One systemic shock afer another?
Now now... Our president the despot.... Truth is our government has failed and Trump rode the wave of our blind incoherent frustration. This is a product of a defunded educational system and 50 years of unkept promises.
Ask chatgpt4 about that it can give you cliff notes on the state of the maths.
Remember he carrys out orders not set policys that will be DT's job.
You understand this is our president Batman is slapping around.
Start calling Elon "Trumps Brain" might sour our melonheaded felonious fearless leader to the point he boots him back to boca chica where he can get back to focusing on starship and making us multiplanetary.
The French Devolution oops revolution is worse case.

We just use our freezer until we prepare it for the 4th of july picnic.
I think the dem party should stay the heck away from trying to use Luigi Mangione's act of rage as a dog whistle for gun control he could have used an effen hammer. It ignores the systemic problem that created him and confuses its reality.
I would say that the profit before people practices of the boards of directors in corporate america will lead to Piketty's people powered pitchforks perhaps giving them pause. Who is going to enact real reform when the system is captured. I enjoyed your conversation w/john stewart.

How could I miss Nive.
Just ran across this. "Pyrrhic defeat theory /ˈpɪrɪk/ is the idea that those with the power to change a system, benefit from the way it currently works." I always thought pyrrhic went with victory where the victor rules a nation of ashes. mmm
I dont hate Trump I hate all the people that refuse to call him out on his BS... yes republicans I am talking to you.
augh! :) I guess we have to start local and call bullsh1t whenever we see it and hope at the end of his term everyone is ready for his departure.
Sometimes pain is the only way to teach... Ignorance is innocense this time it is malignant innocense and the pain will be felt by all.
Those people are flat out bunkers!
If they cant see the underlying anger Mangione's actions resonate with then all bets are off and the beatings will continue the prices will continue to increase and what is covered by med ins prviders will be further reduced...
I wonder if after trump"s term is over can we finally get to sentencing him?... That is if he doesnt try to become king....
This guy is tragedy incarnate. Blessed with a good family and education smart enough to see the world clearly but cursed with so much chronic pain it drove him so crazy he killed someone. Now as for CEO who got killed his crime was being the face of american health care system.
You know what really sux about their idea of success is they have no cause to question practices that have made them so wealthy... there will be consequences and all of us will have to carry that load.
He is right and if this administration grabs ahold of the AI industry it will have enough control to end the future.
I need more of this please.. please can I have some more?
Fairly high likelihood that this is from the chinese. Musk is a shit sometimes but show me someone who isnt.
Do you have a citation for this claim?
How did the call get to the police? Next time you have your claim denied just ask them where you should go to die so you wont be a burden to their shareholders.... PROFIT HAS BECOME MORE IMPORTANT THAN PEOPLE...
sigh......... yup
The pitchforks are coming!
I guess our collective dislike of this guy wasnt strong enough to overcome our ignorance... Sometimes one must get burned to recognize the danger of the stove.... in this case the fat headed felon in charge.
Check this out. Jon Stewart and B Sanders talk about the issue.. m.youtube.com/watch?v=B4vt...
Your framing it wrong this is about health care in america which all americans including law enforcement can agree sux when you really need it and an assasination of a CEO of the largest health insurance provider in america.
marion zimmer bradley's Darkover series.
An excellent discussion about why the election went the way it went. I know they are libs but their conversation speaks volumes.. m.youtube.com/watch?v=B4vt...
