By stroking his guns, probably.

Dude is obviously white.

Did you even read the article I linked to? Or make any effort at all to get informed? And yes, we're going to have to build a whole lot of more storage. And grid capacity. And grid management. And load management. All of which are drastically easier, safer and cheaper than building a lot of nuclear plants. Even if it was feasible to do so which it very patently isn't. Nuclear power doesn't scale, as Hinkley Point, Olkiluotto etc. have proven beyond a shadow of doubt.

Donnieboy isn't going to live forever, you know? In fact, he seems to be declining rapidly lately. So even if there's no election there will be a vacancy for Supreme Leader at some point.

I suppose you're talking about base load? That tired old myth has been debunked so many times, yet it gets rolled out every single time these discussions come up. Maybe come up with some new "argument"? Oh right, you don't have any.

No it can't. Have you looked at any current project? They're all wildly over budget. And none of those calculations even consider decommissioning or nuclear waste storage. Both are endless money pits that are usually paid for by the public. You cannot even put a price tag on nuclear storage because it's never been done before and it needs to be operated beyond the horizon of any reasonable accounting practice. We're effectively saddling future generations with our crap.

They have always known exactly what they were doing and they never had any intention to do anything differently.

Fantastic. Let's sink more money into white elephants rather than investing in stuff that's actually economical.

Yeah, I'm sure that's exactly how it'll go.

Ending the war on drugs will not solve every problem. But at least things will stop getting worse. And it'll make it far easier to tackle all the other problems.

Much as I like Bernie, swapping out one geriatric dude for another one isn't really the way to go. And AOC will never be accepted by the Dem establishment.

And is that other candidate in the room with us now? I mean seriously, who would it be?

System works as designed

All these negative effects are consequences of the war on drugs, not the drugs themselves. If society treats drug addicts as patients instead of as criminals, things get better. This has worked every time it's been tried. The only reason it isn't done in a larger scale is people who benefit from the war on drugs preventing it.

And it's high time all this was fixed. Just because some dudes 250 years ago thought a system of government was good, doesn't mean it's still adequate today.

Maybe we could start a Gofundme or something.

"Total crackpot party nominates total crackpots." More news at ten.

The system is set up deliberately to prevent doing what the voters want.

Hypothetically. None of those are anywhere near to actually being built.

But then the managers would have got fewer bonuses. How can you be so heartless?
