They’ve been getting confused after Elon turned into a giant-ass bigot, so now some of them are considering Tesla.
Their base believes it and it riles people up at Trump rallies. That’s why.
I don’t think Trump knows what that word means.
“Yeah, but Socialism and Communism!!!”
I have conservative family members who deliberately go for the biggest SUV with the lowest gas mileage available just to “stick it to the government.” If the government told them that they couldn’t drive a small car, they’d be out there shopping for a small car. It’s incredibly childish.
Right. A lot of European countries use ARMs a lot more. The only other country where 30-year fixed is the norm is Denmark, as far as I know. But Europe just generally has lower interest rates.
What makes Europe free speech more free than ours?
The gist: While free speech is a constitutional right in both the US and most European countries, free speech is now controlled to a large degree by social media companies in the US.
Here’s a good, short recap of a longer study on the subject from a US scholar: https://news.ku.edu/news/article/2020/01/11/study-analyzes-american-other-free-speech-traditions-suggests-inevitable-clashes
Europe is already down to 3.5 percent.
So what America should be saying is, if NATO wants us to continue supporting them and NATO wants us to continue to be a good participant in this military alliance, why don’t you respect American values and respect free speech?
JD, buddy, what you don’t understand is that Europe’s free speech is far more free than the US.
Americans have a tendency to think they have everything and everyone else has nothing. Until we go somewhere else and discover it’s the other way around.
I work 2x in office, less if I have a somewhat passable reason to not go in. And I can WFH for a few weeks at a time if I need to travel for whatever reason.
For now. Soon it’s going to be: “Well, Amazon is calling people back, maybe we should, too.”
They are retaining staff by paying more than most other companies, but they also have a reputation for running their workers into the ground by overworking them. Many burn out pretty quickly.
Where did I “admit” that? I said maybe, maybe not. Campaigning on the issues will lock judges into their biases. It will never work well.
You can impeach all of them, including Supreme Court justices, within the framework of the law that has been set by elected representatives.
Yes, I disagree. I already stated why.
Maybe, maybe not. But blatantly giving up on neutrality by electing judges based on their political views does not help promote justice.
There’s already a system in place to hold politicians accountable.
I want judges who base their rulings on the law and not their political views. In theory, laws adjust to the popular view over time. Judges should not be part of that adjustment.
Trump is to blame. When someone who half of the country blindly follows starts spewing slanderous venom, his followers will do the same. He’s been doing it for years on other random issues. They follow every time. And he knows it.
So, the judges will have to campaign on the issues? Doesn’t seem like the best idea if you want neutral and unbiased judges.
Sometimes it just feels like Americans are freaking savages. Abolish capital punishment.
