is it even legal to be this stupid? it shouldn't be. folks this mentally impaired need to be kept in a safe place where they can't harm themselves or others...
the "crooked politicians" are crooked because they take money from oil and gas companies.Any windfall tax legislation to punish the gas companies is the wrong way to do things. They already got the money. It's just more money grab for the crooked politicians. How about policies to keep energy affordable. Seems someone showed US how to do that.
So you want to nationalize it and eliminate all competition? The government is the last one that you want to depend on your your energy. They are proving that right now.the "crooked politicians" are crooked because they take money from oil and gas companies.
very much yes, punish these companies and people. hell, just nationalize the energy industry. fuck these crooks. energy will never be affordable so long as there is a monopoly on who controls the energy. its no different than any other industry in this country. 3-4 companies control entire industries.
i'm not the one voting for criminals.“The elections are rigged. Let’s nationalize the oil companies.”
Can you see the problem?
No. You did nothing. Nothing at all.i'm not the one voting for criminals.
And it's not like they're taking away the real sausage. It's another menu item for their Encyclopedia Diabeeticus of a menu.
Practicing proper etiquette means not discussing politics in public places.I had an interesting run in with Cancel Culture last week.
I saw "Mike", a former gold miner who described his technique, doing Mercury extractions in an apartment building, creating mercury fumes in an enclosed space where he was working ... a story he told me a few years ago.
Anyway, saw Mike at the library, and I know he generally likes to Bash Democrats.
So I made a comment about how Covid19 was interesting because it was so Bi-partisan.
1 year of Trump managed Covid19, 1 year of Biden managed Covid19.
DING DING DING ! This brought the librarian running. "No politics discussion in the library".
And I thought the main guideline in a library was keeping your voice down to a whisper.
In rural America, I feel like I'm surrounded by the stupidest people on Earth.
But maybe the people around me feel the same way.
i agree with you, no argument here...It's a matter of perspective though isn't it? You drop a Harvard intellectual into the amazon, into one of those tribes that's had very limited contact with moderns society, they're going to think he's pretty fucking stupid for not knowing how to survive in the jungle. Thinking you're smarter than someone else because they're different doesn't make you better than them, it makes you an asshole and it's divisive.
Not talking to aoh or phatty, just making a generalized statement based on the last couple posts.
