  • But you live in a world where there are few union jobs, and the middle class has all but evaporated. We can’t afford to buy things because we don’t make enough money, so companies stopped making products for us. Brands no longer compete to create the best value for the customer, but to make the most short-term profit they can.

    While unions may not be the best solution, it is clear the working class having a voice is a feature, not a bug.


  • Australia already showed us that it isn’t even that hard. And it was incredibly effective. It’s just that the largest gun manufacturers can spend over 100% of their profits on paying politicians and talking heads to keep things this way.

    Australia is a great parallel for your arguments. The same “we had to concur the wilderness” history and all. I believe they have not had a mass shooting since 2008 when they passed their gun control.


  • The secret to really creamy eggs is to use 2 teaspoons of cream of tartar on the pan before you begin the creation of the eggs. The best way that I’ve found to apply the cream of tartar is with a coal spatula. You can rub the cream of tartar into the pan with the spatula in the cabinet under the sink to reduce the chance of the sunlight or gama rays interfering with the adhesion process. After that, your pan should be good for at least 60-70 years of making eggs! Unfortunately, if you make anything else in the pan, it will ruin the “seasoning” I believe it is called, and you’ll need to do it again. But believe me, the eggs are well worth the effort! Especially helpful when making a chicken based egg as they tend to have the lowest protein levels.



  • I had an argument with someone online recently where I advocated for removal of national boarders and they came back with, “what about bad people” to which I responded, who are the bad people? And if I consider you a bad person would you be alright being kicked out of your country and not allowed to return. We spoke for about 3 hours and my whole argument was that if he considered rapists (they said rapists and murderers were bad people) fit to be prevented from entering his country would they willingly leave if their wife accused them of rape.

    They just couldn’t allow themselves to follow through with the thought, it simply stopped with, “I’m a good person” and even when asked if they received consent before sexual acts they said,“no, but I’m not a rapist, I’m a good person”

    They love laws like this, because in their minds, they could 100% NEVER be applied to them.












  • Assuming you put the money in a basic ass savings account at bank of America (average us savings account gives .46%apy) thar is a gain of 4.6 MILLION a year. So you would need to out spend that just to start losing money. High interest accounts can be up around ten times that at 5% so 50 million a year would need to be spent to lose money.

    Stock market averages 10% yearly returns not including dividends. So a cool 100 million a year in play money.
