Its been tried in the US, but a lot of voters have been bitching about it and those that introduce it or support it tend to get ousted later because of people being stupid and not understanding.. and buy into lies about what it actually means..

It does.. but the problem is “invisible” so the average voter doesn’t see it.. and then swallows the explanations of the various political parties which seek to demonize the homeless and use them as scapegoats for whatever issue they are currently engaged in (drugs, children, poverty, immigration, wearing a tan suit,…

Yes they can be impeached, but as he’s their supporter, what is the likely hood of 75% (the percentage needed) voting to oust him?... Hint: VERY VERY small.

Remember, the republican party doesn’t care about ethics or the appearance of ethics. They ONLY care about power (they can’t win based on policies so they win…

The problem with US law (and its government in general) is it depends on the ethics of the people in government... While the system itself is designed to prevent a single person or a tiny minority from being a tyrant, its NOT designed to protect itself against internal rot because it assumes the people going INTO…

You do realize that electric stoves have come a LONG way since the early days.. (Which were crap, I fully admit... my family had GEN1 and GEN2 electric stoves which put myself off them for a while) But the latest versions are FAR more precise and are consistant.. The biggest issue with electric stoves (and this is…

Actually if you read ALL the papers and documents opened for the case.. (I did because I was truly bored).. They were both terrible and toxic people harassed and sabotaged each other at various points in their “relationship” and shouldn’t be on the same planet together let alone married..

He just had a better lawyer..

I mean you can’t get much lower than jones.. I hear he’s renting the sub basment in Satan’s home... I think he would get kicked out, but even Hell has rent control.

Actually almond milk is fine for the environment.. but growing almonds in a climate not suited to growing them (ie: California which is a DESERT state that has been made livable due to our terraforming efforts) IS bad.. (and not so much bad as costly).

So lets not pick on almond milk.. its been around for CENTURYs…

Nowhere did I say this is “usual politics”.. I agree with everything you said.. but it still ties in with voters and voter education and apathy in not seeing a “win” because most people ONLY look at the results and not the details around that result.

You realize the #1 complaint I here all the time from people…

For the Dems, its less about having a spine and more about 1: Not being part of the same scandal.. and 2: Having the numbers to actually be able to DO something.. kicking up a dust on something that can’t go anyway (people don’t care about the details like if you have the numbers to do anything, all they care about is…

Actually its not publically insulting them..

The bill isn’t mandating that YOU MUST do something. the bill is only mandating that the vehicle is capable of it.. if you plug it in and have the infrastructure to do it, and enable it.. then sure..

I have no problem on mandating it.. personally speaking even without blackouts, its a good idea because you essentially…

But that’s exactly what they do.. for most paperwork they submit, they do leverage it as a “tangible asset”.. but as its not a “real asset” it doesn’t count for their tax burden. Its a classic shell game many play.

And the part I don’t really understand is Democracy (which the US isn’t) isn’t that far from Socialism (which it isn’t as well).. In fact, most of the best run (and a few of the worst run) countries are Socialist countries..The people IN the government is what makes it bad, not the structure of government..

I think…

Some people enjoy work.. (assuming they like what they do).. and without something to do, they fall into depression and eventual death.  Not everyone kicks back and relaxes in the same manner.

Mostly correct, the notable exception being in this case when there is a government push (in the form of mandates/law changes and often grants/assistance to get the ball rolling).. But the other reason is simply competition... When the laws do change or public interest shifts and new companies arise to fulfill the new…

Standard “republican” playbook here... its always “Do as I say, not as I do”.

Yes, but if the mission parameters wasn’t so much to catch as much observational data about the planets AND extra-stellar data... but rather to leave the heliosphere as quickly as possible to detect and verify the data collected by the same probe going in almost the same direction, it might work, unless the concern is…

To be fair, in the realm of hollywood (and especially in the current era), a LOT of talent companies and projects are VERY VERY quick to drop anyone that they feel MIGHT have a negative impact on them, so its less “leaving money on the table”.. its more about “getting out BEFORE their wallet is stolen”. The…

Given WW and Aquaman are not slated to be in this one.. its the Kryptonians that are the villians...

And remember, they are doing a modified Flashpoint just to reset the board if you will to undo the Synderverse.. (essentially how Flashpoint introduced the “New 52" universe in the comics) So no need to bring in more…
