WWII had a compulsory draft where it was already established by then that congress had the power to initiate a draft. It was also hashed out that it was a federal issue and not a s…

Abusive MEN in particular. Especially radical christians where divorce is stigmatized. It's like they take it as a free pass to just be hateful person. Honestly my dad more than an…

I totally agree and don't think I'm idolizing the past. It's just a different world today and the culture has not caught up with reality.

That is probably the one part of the article they really should've made more prominent. Yet they didn't. They hammered it home that videogames and young men not getting married and…

You know, it'd be nice if they'd look at the cultural aspects of gaming as opposed to just assuming all videogames are bad. It's like being in the 1920's criticizing someone spendi…

This is what I do and I 100% agree about lazy people that aren't willing to make a halfway decent website. I'm not that old, but sometimes I just want a website with text. I don't …

First off, please don't take anything I'm saying out of context which is in terms of regular people that make enough to pay their bills. Lower income types struggle with these thin…

How about ban lawns in general? Their entire inception was devised because the bourgeoisie could flaunt the fact that they could afford to have land not be in use for food producti…

So what. Just because you send a retraction doesn't justify it or make the apology any better. That sounds like they allow some people too much freedom as if they ran this business…

Use noscript. It's possibly one of the best add-ons out there now.

I can jump in on this bandwagon a bit. A cop, not on active duty at the time, took a retired German Shepard police dog as a pet. He lived near a college and had his dog running aro…

But like I said about how these wide sweeping reforms, they create instability and also famine. The reason it ended up being good (as your link also shows) was due to land consolid…

I 100% agree about Sam Harris in particular. I really do enjoy listening to his podcast, but anytime I hear him discuss AI I want to shut him off. He's a neuroscientist/philosopher…

Free will is something you have the power to act on, regardless of external influences. Just because the fear of punishment exists doesn't mean that a person cannot opt out. It's t…

I guess I was coming from the philosophy of why it's bad on a liberalism mindset. I totally get why it's good for a governing body to assume control.

I mean we could hash out all hypothetical all day. I'm just saying that the needs of the economy would shift to that where a PhD basically becomes the new High School Diploma. In e…

>accept less pay at the top. For a second there I thought you we're being serious!

>NO taxes till $40k-50k for a family You're talking about quite literally like 80% of the entire tax revenue generated by the government. Income taxes we're devised because an indu…

Aren't there studies that show the suicide rate among married men is drastically lower than unmarried men? I really don't think it has anything to do with income (or at least to a …

God forbid NIMBY has to deal with a better house than theirs a block away...

Does Europe (more or less as whole) have a philosophy that rental properties are a regulated enterprise that is solely to be managed by a established company? I mean I really do li…

Isn't like 90% of the homeless population people with a significant mental illness that they cannot provide for themselves? That's because the normal competent people don't remain …

Chinese emperors have done this type of land reform innumerable times and it has always ended up in famine and disaster/regime change. Land consolidation became a thing (as it inev…

I personally believe a lot of that stuff cannot be further studied unless we are able to divert solutions to other problems in our society first. I'm saying that we need to have th…
