I guess you don’t care that much about actually saving lives.

I could just as well say “the right believes an all powerful market run by flawed and selfish people is the answer to all problems!” ... but I’m not a mindless partisan hack like you.

We’re also mammals. That doesn’t mean our brains are comparable to an armadillo’s, you dipshit.

I love when conservatives come ever so close to the point and still manage to miss it.

We are all short-sighted monkeys, quite literally:

I’ve made the point countless times:

Spaceduckong force is considerably cheaper than free everything for everyone.

How ya been buddy?

No one needs to drink, run fast, ski, or anything really. No one needs to eat fast food. No one needs to insult each other on the internet.

Why did prohibition fail?

Maybe you’re familiar with the outsized resources we’ve dedicated to fighting terrorism in the past 18 years, despite it being dwarfed in body count by road rage and domestic violence.

I mean, no one needs a backyard pool.

Part of the incentive is to create a better life for your children. You want this. I want this. You don’t want to throw your hypothetical kids into the common pool when you have the ability to give them an advantage.

Prosecuting people for suicide is insane and nonsensical, and almost never actually happens. It can occasionally be used to force them into mental health treatment, but what can you really do to someone who wants to end their life? They’re already trying to punish themselves to the maximum extent our government can…

Guns are regulated. As is booze. As are backyard pools. As are cars.

Almost no one dies in mass shootings. You’re better off banning backyard pools and booze.

Americans do care about freedom more than safety, which is why we openly violate the laws that piss us off and annoy us.

Drinking alcohol has literally no utility. It’s “fuck you up juice.” The world would be better if no one drank. And yet still, we choose to do this and choose to allow it.

Amazon effectively paid $0 in federal taxes last year.

I don’t think that’s how most Americans experience their economic choices. It’s more that...SHIT GOTTA GO.
