Who cares? He was inoeached before already and it literally did NOTHING
Wake me up when this bullshit is actually over, all this "oohh, THIS will end him for sure!" every week is tiring
I don't mind people bringing valid criticisms to capitalism, it has a lot of problems, but it bugs me that, instead of giving even semi realistic ideas, they come with "communism is flawless!" or "the anarchists way is perfect, nothing could go wrong!"
When you then point out that all communist examples in practice resulted in terrorized citizens, famines and what not, you only get "no true Scotsman!" arguments.
I do agree as well with you that current political rules (well mostly in the US) are shit. Politicians should never need to fund raise at all and should be chosen for their merits, not their skills in "saying something populist in 5 words or less"
capitalism is not a system that allows wealth to be distributed from the rich to the poor
That's like saying that a car does not allow food to be digested.
Capitalism can and should be used as a driver for economic wealth whilst being controlled and capped by law.
You are poor? You pay no taxes. Anybody else pays in brackets and when your net worth reaches 10 million? Anything above it gets taxed 100%. Same for companies, limit them to 500-1000 employees maximum, net worths maximum 100 million or a billion or something like that.
This makes it that nobody gets too rich, nobody gets too powerful and the government gets a huge amount of tax wealth which it can use for a giant social system that gives free healthcare, education, housing, you name it. You could then egen umdo universal income and it requires no communism, no forcing people, no taking away of rights.
Nah
People get influenced all the time to change their opinions and attitudes
I think that the pronouns thing from a few years back did a lot of damage and pushed a lot of people to more right wing ideas. It's stupid, of course, it's an annoyance at best, but it has helpt right wing talking heads to have easy material to lure unsuspecting viewers in
I've used it for quite a few legitimate payments. Its fast, easy, not cheap.
But yeah, it does allow for a lot of criminal transactions, as a side effect
Sir, this is a lemmy
Sorry for not being more helpful, I do almost everything on the command line..
I think it's called muon, or these days discovery, maybe.. there you should be able to configure auto updates
I think you're missing the point where rockets blowing up is a bit of a tradition nat SpaceX, much MUCH more so than at, say, NASA 60 years ago.
NASA definitely wasn't cheering every time one of their shitty rockets blew up as they actually knew what they were doing
No, the other way around.
If governments start regulating how businesses have to behave, that's when you get nicer things
Okay, a few things to unpack here.
Yeah, you need service roads. In the Netherlands they have the city center streets completely blocked off from traffic, only bicycles and pedestrians are allowed.
Once a day, usually 7-9 am, a hydrolic pole will lower at the entrances, allowing small supply trucks in to supply the stores. These trucks will have two hours to get their business done and leave. If the poles go up before they're out, no worries, they can be lowered on demand for special circumstances or will just auto lower from the inside, not the outside.
Also only small delivery trucks are allowed. I'm in Vancouver and I'm amazed how they sometimes use trailer trucks in the fucking city center. What is wrong with you? You don't need enormous trucks, literally.
In the Netherlands, all centers gave tile roads and it isn't a problem because we use smaller trucks there.
The result is predictable. The city centers are amazing, everyone loves them, and ita always crowded like hell because these are human spaces, not car spaces
Car spaces are awful, dangerous and nobody wants to be there. Make human spaces!
I was on YouTube all the time until recently when I switched to peer tube, still to watch YouTube
I've never seen this shit before
Seriously, something in WWII broke German minds. Yes, Nazis were horrible but you went from one stupid extreme to another stupid extreme and both ended up with genocides
Germany, please, can you try to go to some middle ground somewhere?
