When the option is generational medical debt...

Because we don't have the time or energy to play the game ourselves...

Shh, they're trying to catch up

Also quite useful for places short on water, or daylight, or clement weather, or low-value ecosystems, or where transportation is unfeasible due to accessibility, environmental conditions, market access.

Also quite good to alleviate food deserts, securing strategic supply chains, and supporting urbanisation for greenification, food supply, lowering transport and food security (with growing food also having positive mental and psychosocial effects).

Is this US specific?

Oh, so that's why! Here I thought y'all were shufflin

Eggselln't

There are standards for such ratings, and several countries have mandated minimums, which lead to longer and healthier lives.

Because countering Russia has been the US' primary offer in all deals and bargaining for the last 50 years

I'm guessing because a lot of them aren't clearly marked "Russian state war chest part 12", but rather things like "Gazprom reserve fund" or "Oligarchs discretionary fund" which would muddy the border between state and private assets.

State assets might be fine to seize to cover state costs, but the legality of seizing the others' might by grayer.

When the options are between having the choice or not, voting Republican is clearly being complicit.

The other side isn't forcing abortions, it's giving the possibility.

Check out the Nordics, that's how they do it over there.

Correct, but they would often benefit from having collective bargaining against the board of directors or other owners.

And organising themselves as a union would also show them that unions aren't evil and shift focus from exploitation to cooperation. Besides, many unions would have much use of being able to speak for the whole industry in matters of legislation, either as lobby or expert.

Actually, the executives should probably also unionise, it will help normalise negotiations and spread best practices that lead to a better work environment for all.

Oh, we need both for sure, and renewables as well.

That's assuming a lot of ifs resolve our way, and without power needs increasing. It's more sustainable than coal/gas/oil for sure, but with current energy development needs it's barely long term (IIRC about 60-140 years)

Also, on centuries timescale, we will need to find more fissiles in space. And according to our current understanding of the universe, they should be quite rare, especially compared to hydrogen.

Basically, figuring out fusion power would solve our needs for the first level on the Kardashev scale, and has the potential to be portable fuel for the rest of the lifespan of the universe.

Looks so cool!

Progress is always incremental, except in hindsight
