Actually, slaves. We are held back by those in power, ignored, taught to hate those different than ourselves, paid just enough to survive and abused. We know this and we’re too scared to do anything about it because any fight we give needs us all, or we risk those in power taking away those few things or placing us in prison.
I have Levis 501 classics, from 1993 that I wear often. I’m tired of fashion dictating what i’m supposed to wear. Though, i do like me some dress chinos, BUT NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE COOL…. Damn comfy.
I’d prefer a 70% tax on billionaires, but I’d settle for 50% for anything above 5million. Take Elon for example, the guy makes an estimated $50,000USD per minute. Yes folks, the guy makes more per minute than the average American does in a year.
prove to me that billionaires should exist. Tax them accordingly.
In what area of the USA do you live where the average american knows what a meter is. You’ll get some nonsense like “about 3 feet”, maybe.
Yep. Though until California can pull pure water from salt water, Utah will stop water from coming in. Though in Colorado, we’ll just block it off before it gets there as we battle out our own red vs blue. Fuckem.
I’m lucky enough to have a yard, but my dog knows when it’s past time to go for her walk and she’ll stare at me until I move. Morning walks right now mean I get up earlier, so she can have more sniff time.
When I travel with my pups, I use treats. She poops, gets treats. By the 3rd day, she’s heading straight to the same spot to poop real fast so she gets a treat. Give that a go.
And these corp landlords can choose to not rent any longer, let the property remain empty for the legal length of time and then start renting again at the new and more profitable higher rate.
I don’t know the laws in California, but isn’t there just a surplus of houses empty for this very reason? If you look at the numbers, they could be sitting on these houses and get low interest loans on the value, which earns higher invested interest elsewhere. Anyone squatting can get away with it because the company will just do the legal route and get more money from these people (even if it’s debt that just hangs over their heads for a while). The rich just keep getting richer…
Oh, I agree. That site is trash and used in total sarcasm jest.

I’m sure I’m breaking a rule here, but every time I see his stock angry pouty face photo, I think of Ben stiller.
Ahh yes, but i was just reading on moneywise that the recession is getting worse and we’re all going to die (I might have exaggerated that part on my own). Stock market will crash, housing will bubble. I guess it’ll be horrible for those rich million and billionaires who don’t already have 25 different ways to make money. Maybe there’s a recession in billionaire land? I mean, Elon might not get his 56billion salary and will walk away… yes, thats it, recession for billionaires.
So… democrats have resegregated schools, is a bad thing to conservatives and they are upset? I thought that was part project 25. Maybe they’re upset Biden did it first. I can see it now, Trump wins and resegregation occurs, and they blame Biden.
“Ahh , the plan is so evil, it might just work.” - trump, probably
Ugh, whatever, this timeline no longer makes any sense and at what point do these lies become reality?
Yeah, sorry it was meant to be implied but not said. He committed a crime, strong punishment and lifetime tracking is fine.
Upskirts, peepingtoms, spy cameras, rape… it’s about non-consent and if I remember one of my college classes chapters, a sense of power over others. It’s a mental illness and needs treatment, but here in Murica, we just put people in jail.
Yeah, I think I’m talking about the purposeful legal jargon used to deceive or be arguable vague and 20 pages long for no reason but to hide that fact. I’m all about precision, but it needs to be something an average person would comprehend if we were to adopt this method.
Not an original idea by far, but I was chatting it up with a few friends recently about this and we thought a civic duty term made far more sense (think jury duty). So much needs to be fixed in the process, like the bill riders addons (a horrible scourge to our political system) and lobbyist (scum). But imagine you were picked (randomly) to serve for 3 year stints, with those getting picked for a 2nd and maybe even 3rd term, serving as some Senior politician. Clearly it needs much more thought, but far better potential because you have to participate and accountable.
Before you knock it down, think about the intelligence required here. Boebert is an absolute moron. Bills before the system need to be something the average person can understand (legal verbiage is such a pointless waste and almost unnecessary). You would need to participate in collaboration with others, understand how to be honest and forthcoming with your goals.
We can’t hold Politicians accountable (not the system today) and this could be an answer.
If you watch these commercials, they play to your inner voice who is always asking “shit, is that weird thing on my body… cancer!?!?!?”. So now you’re off to the doc to describe the same symptoms you think you’ve had based on the TV ads warning you to see your doctor. Doc runs some tests and then they’re prescribing preventitall, the latest drug that cures it all.
There are people out there that just want to be sick, or close enough. My Ex was that way in a sense, it gave her attention. A cold was A MAJOR LIFE EVENT… and the fact I didn’t give her 150% of my attention was so annoying. She was dying of course, always dying. Sigh, I don’t miss her.
I traveled a lot, and I mean A LOT in late 90s to 2010s. And wow does it scare me how often the ads here in the usa are preying on the minds of people who are (or worse, want to be) sick. Only worse, is your doctor is being paid for putting you on it too. Italy, France, UK, all places I frequented and none of them have had adverts that I’ve ever seen for prescription medications.
Mmm, squishy
This district is known for its republican voting. There’s a chance the challenger could win, but we would need a very strong turnout in a Trump crazy district.
