That is because right now he is

Just another day in America

Did she really wanted to sweep it away?

Because her method was akin to trying to put out a fire by tossing a bucket of gasoline on it.

I feel like she either is too bmsumb to realise what she did or she might be trying to toss Donnie under a bus. It’s just too stupid a “mistake” to make to revive the Epstein files with such a huge event

Nope

It’s all car lobbies, corrupt politicians, people doing everything possible to get rid of trains for people, get rid of bicycles in cities, everything needs to be designed for cars first, then whatever, turning every US (And Canadian and Mexican) city in a car park.

Hell, jaywalking as a concept was invented by car manufacturers because cars were killing so many people. Instead of doing something about the cars, we now just blame it on this invention from cars manufacturers.

Anything to push cars

Take a look at the Netherlands. It’s been working on less car for decades. It’s enormously densely populated and we simply don’t have the space for ginormous car parks and clogged road arteries. Back in the 1960’s they stopped the carification of cities and pushed for bicycle use and public transportation. Cars can get to most places still, but everything is principally designed for pedestrians, then cyclists, then cars. Most city centers block even bicycles, allowing people to walk only

The result? Moving about in the Netherlands is super easy, and the cities are amazing and safe. There are bicycle freeways, the cities are much quieter, the air is cleaner.

Other European cities finally followed suit in the past decade, with great results

Canada is trying a little bit of this in Vancouver, with mixed results because a lot of the designs they’re trying are designs everyone knew were bad and dangerous since back in the 1980s, but good on them for at least trying.

I know, you were talking about trains, and keep talking about bicycles, but it’s relevant. The two go together and should be implemented together.

Short distance, < 1 kilometers, people can and should walk. < 10 kilometers, bicycles. More than that, you use trains in between cities and busses for the less urban routes and inside the cities.

This is how it should be. People cycling are healthier. It generates less CO2, it pollutes less. Similarly, trains are way WAY more energy efficient and way less polluting than all those cars.

It’s just the politicians who keep being paid and lobbied to make sure car manufacturers can fill their pockets. Electric cars won’t change most of this, they only sort of solve the CO2 problem

This strait dictates world economy? Of course trump wants to install a toll booth there with the money going straight to him and his cronies

All that after a war with Iran, of course

Deluded dipshit

Schumer is a fucking Republican asset, and Democrats are fine with that

US politics is beyond corrupt, has been since… Forever?

Because peeing spreads around microscopic pee particles that go many places. Same for flushing after pooping squirts poop particles around.

IIRC, that luteral crap can spread around 2 meters of a toilet

Any language learned as an adult will be extremely difficult to speak well, to the point of sounding native

NEW REVOLUTIONARY BATTERY TECHNOLOGY #46284956947

Uh huh, seen these on a weekly basis for at least 30 years now. Wake me up when you have one in a car

Take it from a developer who has built larger systems for over 30 years: If you want to write a piece of software to automate some process, first you need to understand what that process does, and why. If you don’t know either, you should not be building software to automate that. If you don’t understand that concept, please don’t write software at all

Any software…

Good point, just that the security council never gets anything done that has any practical effect whatsoever. \

Did you miss the “Slowly string up gays with a crane” memo from Iran?

Did you miss the “Public executions” memo from Iran?

Did you miss the “Torture prisons” memo from Iran? Seriously, look up “Evin Confess” on spotify, the singer actually spent some “fun vacation” in that place because they didn’t like his music much

Seriously, the Iranian government is a fucked up government that needs to go. Same for Saudi Arabia, by the way, same shit, different name. These are repressive and violent regimes. Whatever fucked up thing the US and Israel are doing has nothing to do with that, doesn’t change anything about that. And yes, the Israeli government too is evil and fucked up and too has to go because they just seem unable to stop genociding because they like it too much.

What is up with you idiots trying to protect these horrible creatures? Why?

The “original message” was also only about control, like every other religion out there

Nah, just 10M wealth caps…

Management is free to give you a 100M bonus! If your current worth is 1M, 91M of that bonus will go to taxes and you receive 9M and after that, all goes to taxes.

If you have shares, and the value of those shares goes up? You’ll have to pay the taxes over that, sell some shares, and pay money to taxes. And yeah, companies would simply need boat loads of small shareholders.

And no, 100M is already way too much. If you need investment for bigger things, maybe think independent, government funded investment companies that could be a thing?

Person wealth cap at 10M

Company wealth cap at 1B

Company employee cap at 1000

it shouldn’t even be legal for corporations to own other corporations.

100% agree

And again, you can enforce this by relying on the little people that the executives don’t even recognize as human. Does a CEO formally have $10 million to their name, but they have exclusive use of a $100 million mansion provided by their company? Fine, let the janitor rat him out, and in turn the janitor will end up owning that mansion.

These are some forms of possible cheats, yes, but again ask the question: does it make sense? Why would anyone permit the CEO of the company where they are a shareholder to live in a 100 million dollar mansion if it won’t get you anything? That CEO won’t get you anything more than 10M. The only way it would work is that those at the top of that company would get luxury things from the company while the company itself doesn’t have the resources to survive because the limited resources went to the CEO.

In any case, this was just a single rule, feel free to add a few more :)

Person wealth cap at 10M

Company wealth cap at 1B

Company employee cap at 1000

Uh huh, but it doesn’t work like that. Somebody has to own that lambo at some point, be it a person or company. You could have 100 people pool together half their resources and have half a billion dollar company that rents out lambos but at that point, what is the point of it all?

If in that universe, with wealth caps, somebody wants to show off with a Lamborghini, go ahead, its dumb. You’re sinking boat loads of money into showing off to other people that you’re just as rich as they are.

Either way, that doesn’t matter. Nobody can cross the 10M line, nobody is stupid rich, governments get huge incomes, to me it sounds like a great change

Wait, what are you talking about here? I feel like we’re both on the same side of the argument?

Look, they’re both fucking evil and both have to go. Trump because he is a murdering self serving pedophile, and the Iranian government because they are a theocratic dictatorship that tortures and murders their population for control.

Oh yeah, I’m sure if we wait until the inevitable heat death of the universe that the Iranian regime will have fallen as well!

I’m sorry, but that is rather an… empty statement.
