    You do know the quote is in the context of defense spending, which spends tax dollars on guns, warships, and rockets instead of food and shelter? The “world” may produce enough foo…

    How is that a compromise? You either have a massive black bar at the top of the laptop, or a small notch that allows for more screen real estate.

    Not to say you shouldn’t like Muir Glen, but this seems like the most appropriate place in this thread to drop this link: https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/blog/best-canned-tomato…

    1) China, USSR, etc had/have more government involvement in running business but also controlling people’s movement and freedom of expression. That’s a different situation than Ame…

    Can you not use the button on your steering wheel in that scenario?

    The assumes the price of goods outpaces wages raised. NYC minimum wage buys you more McDonalds in NYC compared to Alabama. So the cost of goods in NYC has not risen past the gains …

    I’m going to disagree with all three points. 1. To think that the military does not know what they need shows a very narrow understanding of the people fighting a war. If you ask a…

    Not to mention conscription, which probably helps with both discipline and meeting people not like you.

    Curious what your background is to make those statements. My experience from Red Flag and other exercises is that the 5th gens (22 & 35) have a much better K/D and survivability. W…

    Harmful online speech has not been banned. The outlets where one can express death threats, hate speech, and calls for insurrection have been decreased. Two very different things.

    That’s quite a pedantic interpretation of gathering in a public square at a particular moment in time where doing so is detrimental to the health and economy of a community. In the…

    Are they actually being silenced, as in someone is forcing them to not express their thoughts? Can they not congregate together the old fashioned way and have as much free speech a…

    This also seems like an odd mindset. Can’t you have a good economy without overpopulating an area? A saying I grew up with - The frog does not drink up the pond in which it lives.

    It’s fair to eye roll at ineffective agreements that don’t pan out. Racing to the bottom with tax incentives is not the only way to bring back manufacturing and hasn’t seemed to wo…

    Tariffs don’t really seem to help anyone. Appliances are much more expensive than the last time I bought them in 2015. If we continue to raise tariffs, China will just stop buying …

    A joke I’ve heard is: Why does a SEAL platoon need 14 men when a green beret team only needs 12? The SEALs need to bring their cameraman and producer.

    It kind of depends on your priorities, whether taste, animal-welfare, cost, etc. I think grass-fed tastes better, but I do find it has less marbling. Check out The Omnivore’s Dilem…

    That’s an interesting point, given modern animal farming practices. 97% of cows are going to come from a feedlot, where they’ll be fed grain (corn). The special part of their stoma…

    It probably depends a bit more on how you define “need”. Do factory owners need people in factories when a robot can do the job? Probably not. Does society need people in factories…

    I mean you basically cherry-picked half a sentence and ignored the rest of the argument for morality and taxes having a connection. Also, please don’t confuse “less taxes = immoral…
