DeSantia new guard is intentionally selected to be ready to act against liberal cities. He's creating the blue print for modern gestapo.

This just seems like a stupid time to be pressing legislation like this. I don't even disagree with it myself. I just think it's idiotic from a political perspective. The Dems can see the GoP struggling with the fall out of Roe v. Wade, and they still want to step into this fight now?

They were on the phone with bankruptcy lawyers before dawn. That is the ones that didn't just disappear into hiding.

They're called laser printers. Ink is for idiots, especially if you only print once in a while.

Great idea, lets import drugs from a country that doesn't make drugs. Where do they come from then? The plan is to buy the drugs we sold to Canada, back from Canada, in order to save money. Just fucking brilliant I tell ya.

Sure, we're just going to need 50 million or so new affordable houses, and to double the trade costs of all international goods and commodities.

If you think gas is expensive now, wait till they have to move all the shipping and refining.

They're being groomed into a mob. It's mass psyops in preparation for next years election cycle. An agitated mob doesn't happen over night.

No one will like the outcome. Revolution almost never results in a better living standard in the lifetime of those involved.

That's not to say it's the worst course of action, just recognizing the down sides.

Famine, disease, collapse, or war. Those are historically the only ways inequality of anywhere near this level has been rectified.

Every car flooded with salt water is a fire waiting to happen. Either a literal fire, or a fire sale. Salt water does horrible shit to all metals.

Kinda sensationalist when we've known about cold welding for as long as the space program at least. Metals bond in a vacuum because there are no oxygen molecules to bond with their surface, when that surface is abraded. It makes for one of the bigger challenges in space, bearings that don't seize up. Along with the even bigger challenge, an air tight bearing that doesn't seize up, or leak.

Don't worry about it, you're washable. - Dad

I was a germaphobe kid, and my dad was a mechanic. Oil and grease horrified me until for some reason that quote just stuck with me.
