I certainly don't want to decide for your family how to live their lives, but five parties just so scraping by doing the payments on a hunting lodge seems miserable for everyone involved. Wouldn't it be possible to rent one instead / buy one in a cheaper area / rent out the lodge when not in use?
I also wouldn't consider a lodge in the middle of nowhere a residential building that should fall under those taxes when kept empty to drive up the rent.
Because the population decline is mostly a western societal phenomenon induced by the late stage capitalism we are suffering from, and our planet dying from our carelessness. Other countries, especially poorer ones, are still happily making babies. So "population decline" effectively means the decline of western populations, and I can see how people (including me) might have an issue with that.
If all populations would shrink proportionally the same it would be a lot less contentious.
... Thats about it. Bazzite comes with everything you need to play games without much hassle pre installed. All the drivers, software to run windows games, various utilities such as key remapping, steam, and if desired you can even get emulators pre installed to play console games.
It also works with next to zero cli knowledge required which is great for anyone who may be coming from windows and is intimidated by that Linux facet. You can just slap it on a machine and generally things just work and you can start playing.
Ah yes of course, the system must be financed somehow in the end. Still infinitely better than the american system which works worse for the average citizen and costs a lot more.
If I'm sick I just go to their practice during consultation hours. Without an appointment I have to wait a little, but rarely more than an hour. Then I get called in, the doctor takes a couple minutes to listen to me describing my symptoms, possibly does some minor checking, then writes me a prescription for whatever treatment I will need or a transfer slip to a specialized doctor.
For emergencies I can just go to the hospital. Oh, all of this costs me nothing at all, maybe a couple euros co pay for medications.
Maybe you watched the movies and remember that scene where saruman doodles around with a sort of flaming crystal ball. Thats the thing. A two way spy/communications device specifically used by the bad guys.
Essentially they named their project after the totalitarian spy device of the worst guy and his corrupted (by that very device) sidekick in lotr**. Apparently that is aspirational to these people
**yes, i know sauron is not the actual bbeg but for the sake of someone who knows the movies at best i skipped last that.
