Yes, note how the immigration diverges from the domestic population growth in the late 60s, the same time house price growth diverges from wage growth. >What are you talking about …

Housing and pay diverged because we opened the border in the middle of the last century: supply for labor went way up along with demand for housing and other essential services. Co…

The US is dead; she was dealt a mortal blow in the late 60s and succumbed to her injuries around 2004. What's left is the slow decay that will take many decades. That people contin…

Don't forget that traditional banks consume lots of energy as well. Their armies of employees and tellers are required to drive an hour or so every day, they maintain tons of physi…

Western media has burned a lot of credibility in the West as well.

I said no hassle, that was a lot of hassle last time I tried it.

Last time I sent money to someone internationally Etherium really was pretty convenient. The Coinbase fees were a little high but otherwise it was near instantaneous, I already had…

On rethinking my statement I've realized I should encourage the Californians to stay in California and not spread communism to the rest of the country. So yeah, you can't escape th…

Housing in SF is crazy expensive, commuting takes ages (and we've shown it's a complete waste) and a lot of people probably don't even want to live in California. Forget snacks, th…

S/MIME could work well but the CA Cert situation doesn't allow it for normal people.

The same is true in the US but reality doesn't matter.

If you think Britain is a force for good than taking power away from it would be bad yes.

They're capable and are therefore oppressive.

>Churchill’s comment that in wartime “truth is so precious that it must be surrounded by a bodyguard of lies”. 1) We're not currently at war 2) Don't forget that the man you're quo…

Recently we were forced to watch an "ethics" video that essentially told everyone "picking White men for your team is wrong, don't do that." I guess now that Whites are becoming mi…

"The Ukraine" is an area. It's the land between Russia and the rest of Europe (it literally translates to "borderland.") The country of Ukraine was named after it. Furthermore: The…

Countries have borders, we invest a lot of money in our children and people and would like a return on that investment. In order for that to be possible we have to reject the peopl…
