Why would there be unrest in all 50 states, Pete? Is there something on the calendar?

For what the public knew previously or what could become public?

Sure thing. Make election day a federal holiday and allow for mail in ballots.

And people voted for him because he’s “tough”.

This “presidency” is reading like a comic book storyline. Maybe I should re-watch Camptain America: Winter Soldier.

If he did his campaign promises of ending the wars in Ukraine and Gaza with his first week, he might’ve had a shot.

But no, he decides to divide and antagonize.

Remember when this all started and Russia’s messaging was about how it was gonna be about 2 weeks top to complete it’s special operation.

Just another aspect of inflation.

How else are they going to make space for new condos? /s

Isn’t it weird how the US can find $20 billion for Argentina and does have the money distribute aid in countries the aid was already at?

I agree.

Should a government be forcing this? I don’t think so. Especially if that requires providing personal information to the internet to enforce compliance.

Mark it in your calendars. One fiscal year from the end of this quarter. I’ll consider Disney+ as a streaming option.

Please send out instructions for others.

Not solely a right tactic. You also see this with product studies sponsored by big corporations.

If only the US Federal departments were set up to stop operations when budgets run out. But alas, the US government loves debt.

This is why we all need to talk with our friends, families, and even co-workers to get out and vote. Most voter turnout rates I’ve seen are 60-70%. There has too be more sane people outside of the cult.

Automation and AI have the potential to put lots of people into unemployment in the next 20 years. For the sake of preventing that unemployment, it’d be good if people had fewer kids. Yet for some reason, governments struggle really hard to comprehend that simple connection.

Because they assume all people will be consumers of goods. So if they have more people, there will be more consumers to buy things.

Now the assumption falls apart in any rigor since automation means that less people are needed for labor and would have money to buy gods. But that requires a government that thinks beyond the limited lifetimes of those running the government.

I would also include the death of the “third place”. Because even if you work enough to survive, where do you spend your time outside of the home with other people in your community without spending money? Even worse options if you want kids allowed.

One of the only places I know of is the library. But I’d be very surprised by an 8-10 year old boy spending their time at the library.

What did he expect to happen?

That’s like complaining about someone punching back after you sucker-punched them.

Well, it is a “sin” to emphasize with others.
