Oh my sweet summer child… You think they’re going to give up power at this point? That is not what fascists do.

There’s only one solution to fascists, and it can happen naturally after 50+ years, or the 1940’s method.

Few groups hate “illegals” more than immigrants. They did it the “hard way” so it shouldn’t be easy for anyone else.

There should be a progressive tax on anyone that owns a home but doesn’t live there. First home is nominal tax. Second home is double that. Third is quadruple. That’d fix housing and rent prices overnight.

And before anyone asks, yes same with apartment complexes. If the owner is forced to live in the complex, there’s an excellent incentive to keep it clean and maintained. And I’m specifically talking people, if a corporation owns a complex the top shareholder needs to be living there.

Other countries don’t have 30 year fixed like we do so there are systems to deal with this. Usually there’s no set repayment timeline, but rate is fixed for some period. Then it goes variable, or you negotiate a new fixed rate for another 5 or 10 years or whatever. The amount you contribute after interest is up to you and determines your payoff time.

Only if you believe their words, which you absolutely should not. A for profit prison management company got paid for 100 days detention when they would have gotten 0 if they let this guy leave.

Everything working out as planned.

I don’t know about other states, but in upstate New York a village is a legal entity that is a defined area within a town. A town is a subdivision of a county.

In other states, I think they don’t fully subdivide counties. So every person in one of those states either lives in an unincorporated part of a county, or a town/city. Those who live unincorporated are only governed by the county, while those in towns/cities are governed by both town and county.

So in New York there are no unincorporated parts of counties. Everyone lives in a town, which is part of a county. Some people may also live in villages, which are areas in towns.

Edit: for example, the village of Seneca Falls is in the town of Seneca Falls, which is in the county of Romulus.

Most of that’s false though. He couldn’t build a good smart team, Wozniak could. He was very good at screwing others out of ownership in the company they helped build though. He was also very good at one thing, envisioning a computer in every home, and a computer in every pocket. That was his one true talent.

But he was not “smart”. He died to cancer detected early enough to heal with modern medicine, but chose quack treatments instead. There really isn’t any such thing as general intelligence. Everyone’s got very specialized knowledge in some topic, and are idiots in everything else.

The rich got richer (top of K) the poor got poorer (bottom of K).

Inflation isn’t high anymore. Price increases are back to normal.

Layoffs in the past year or two have nothing to do with the economy, most companies doing the layoffs are making more profit than ever, except maybe Boeing but that’s clearly not economy related. They just want more money. Had nothing to do with the economy.

Americans are not a hive mind. The ones who mourn his loss are not the ones in power happily sending aid to Israel. Just like not every Palestinian participated in Oct 7.

They had to reject it because any religion with a creation myth specifically says how the god created people. To accept an alternative story would reject the notion of the book as truth.

The religious are not looking for answers, they already have all the answers by definition of their holy book or whatever. They’re looking for confirmation bias and reject anything that goes against that.

You can take them out now if you want to go!
