Yes. but those people that lose their jobs wouldn't have to stress about either paying for or using healthcare - This freedom can give many people the opportunity to do something they love (or like to do). Maybe that is starting a new business or creating a new product? Or they could go work in a different industry that they find more fulfilling where previous they couldn't because of the lack of health benefits.
I think in the long run the people that lose their job grinding away in a huge faceless health insurance job might actually be a good thing for them?
A true "Patriot" would follow the trail of the filter. Where did the raw materials come from for the filter? where was it manufactured? how was it shipped to the store? Who put it on the shelf? If a dirty librul ever touched it then it can't be certified as "non-woke"
I think the way you need to do it is The Onion style of journalism, with a wink and a nod. BUT when your crazy ass right wing theories get shared as "FACTS" on other social media sites you don't dispute it. I kinda think that is how most right wing YouTubers do it.
I’m a little biased but I do look down on men that lack any handyman skills
That is a lot biased to the point that you can't even see that other men's lives may have put them in a position of not learning those things or even wanting to learn those things. It's great that you know how to do those things but just because someone has a penis doesn't mean they have to learn how to be handy. That doesn't make them any less of a man, just different from you.
I didn't voluntarily leave reddit I got banned for some random comment (I honestly don't know what it was) and the appeals process was bullshit. So I found Lemmy. Haven't been back to reddit since don't miss it.
That is true it is a big part of society and how to get along, and you would think that because this is one of the foundations of this society it would be a bigger part of someone's education. This shouldn't be something people should have to figure out on their own in order to feed themselves and their family
One semester of Schmooze 101 could go along way in helping an awkward yet brilliant scientist get the funding they need.
My objective when I look through a comment thread, especially in a topic I don't know much about, I'm looking for the well reasoned posts. I admit I'm a human (confirmed via captchas) and love to have my opinions validated, but I also like to read a different take on a situation or issue. And because I am not in a situation where I don't feel like I have to defend my opinion I'm more open to seeing a different perspective.
So thank you for taking the time to write those out - and to others that do that thank you as well.
It's good to know that this administration is doing something to help directly or indirectly. And if there is a constant in the world of American politics its Democrats don't have a clue how to sell their agenda or legislative wins to the public.
But it doesn't have to be that way. There has to be smart people that would want to work with this reelection campaign that can craft sound bites and advertising that promotes what they have done. And do it in a way that isn't scary to the donor base.
What bothers me is that in his state of the union address he spent time talking about junk fees with Ticketmaster et. al. (which is a problem) yet never really touched on the bigger problem of housing costs. Nor is there any real push by his administration or the Democrats to address this issue any time soon. Like you I don't know if this is intentional or ignorance due to his advisors.
It's a frustrating place to be because I know that Trump gives even less of a shit about the "poors" and would make things even worse. So a large part of this country's population will sit in the status quo for a minimum of 4 more years hoping that the next round of elections will bring in something new and progressive.
It's the plan of defunding many public services so they can't work efficiently then point to that inefficiency as proof that government is bad. Then they promote the "extremely efficient" private sector as the savior to all the bad government problems. And it just happens that these representatives own businesses that can supply all these goods and services at a modest profit of course.
Damn at just 5 ft most of southern Louisiana is completely submerged. And these are probably not the wealthiest people so where do they go? Do they live in FEMA trailers further in land? Do we as a country have a contingency plan for this ? I doubt it but I hope I'm wrong.
I mean there probably are enough homes to help these people but that may cut into Blackrock's rental profit so that's out of the question....
The more I look at this map the more overwhelmed I get at the number of people that will be displaced at just 5 ft.
