I watched a lady who studies dictators on a Wired video recently and she said about 30% of the population believes in dictatorship as an effective way to govern. She explained it as people who are generally dictatorial in their life. My way or the highway type people. Tyrannical microcontrollers. Helicopter parents, etc. These people seem pretty common in my experience so it made sense. And considering about 30% of the population voted for Trump and 30% voted for Harris and the rest didn't vote it makes even more sense.
Democrats are complicit in this too. They refuse to engage with viable alternatives so they allow this to happen so that when the country is in crisis they can step in and offer nothing but level heads. Until people get upset again then they step back into the shadows to allow Republicans to do their fearmongering.
The first part is purely conjecture of their intent. It is irrelevant and unknowable. The facts are they leaked this to a reporter. They should be held accountable based on the facts, not their intent.
That is exorbitant for most people for a basic doctor's visit. Federal minimum wage is $7.25/hr. Takes an entire work week for a minimum wage worker to afford a doctor's visit.
As other's have explained to you, that is just a visit. It covers nothing else. No medication, no tests, no referrals. Just to talk to the Nurse Practitioner for 15 minutes. You will not be talking to the doctor.
I hope you realize what he is talking about every single American deals with and I think you missed the part where he is fortunate and this is literally the best case scenario (outside of being rich enough to not give af.)
You can make sure your doctor is in network, but if someone bills you for other services like an anaesthetists, radiologist or labwork, they may not be and you could get a surprise bill for thousands of dollars.
I believe I've heard that PEX actually breaks down and starts leeching chemicals into the water faster than PVC. It's also a cheaper material. Most of the houses I'm familiar with are still installing PVC.
That would seem to be the explanation on the face of it. Piping is made from heavier duty plastic. But I've heard that PVC can start leaking some nasty chemicals over the decades. Is that better or worse than microplastics?
It already happened. I vaguely remember something my boss would tell me about him being gay or something like that. Idk it was some completely made up horseshit.
I'd be more interested in altering the material conditions that lead to low birth rates than relying on churning through the global population. We're already doing immigration like you said and have been. It still sucks to live in these conditions.
Not really relevant. I mean technically there are countries with child slavery so I guess if you want to entirely miss the point on purpose you could go with one of those.
They are literally not even resisting. Israel has been bombing humans in a barrel for 18 months.
