Look if they didn't want to be made into basketballs they should have stopped raiding me.

Musk has a history of cutting important safety and regulatory jobs to reduce costs. He runs extremely lean businesses.

Maybe it will be different with a biomedical business but I think people are right to be skeptical.

Sometimes I forget how much of that I filtered

Absolutely I hope we can find a way to fast track their development because they will be essential in mitigating the worst effects of climate change.

Plus good luck getting nuclear power in a capitalist society at the volume we'd need. There is a high upfront cost with it only beginning to pay back that investment in the very long term.

Right because having private companies in control of a means of free speech has always worked out fine

Winning third in your own State, not even second. That's gotta hurt.

No yeah that totally sounds like a healthy way to engage in debate.

It's basically a synonym for simp.

"an overzealous or obsessive fan of a particular person or thing"

I don't think that.

What do YOU think will work?

There's a lot of good and bad.

Bad - Supporting Israel financially, forcing the rail workers back to work from their strike, his environmental policies seem half hearted.

Good - Forgiving large amounts of student loan debt, having his cabinet work with the DEA at reclassifing weed while promoting the idea publically, putting billions into Urban reconstruction to help cities become less dependent on roads and more accessible for the least fortunate.

It's more nuanced than he's great or awful. He's just better. As it often ends up coming to in American politics.

As an aside I long for multi choice voting.

That's completely fair critism is a healthy part of democracy.

alphabetically was probably the default sorting method for an array of data and they didn't bother to fix it, just my guess.

Private industry handling a public utility is never a good idea, see: Texas power grid

internet should be treated like water and power and handled by the city.

On the other side of this, what I find really common is anyone who acknowledges the reality of how the US voting structure works is seen as a Biden Stan

Yeah I will say that while I'm in full support of light rail just like you it is one of the most difficult projects a city can undertake and there are a lot of ways it can overrun on cost and compromise too much to be effective

Absolutely I understand that the broader political definition of libertarian is not what it's been co-opted to be in North America.

Here it is inextricably linked to the most insane rhetoric, used only the brainwash people into voting against their interest.

Sounds like an app for cab based hookups.

Possibly I've seen too much

I really hope they follow it with plans for expansion to the public transit system
