TOSSAWAY_1··on If the Wuhan lab-leak hypothesis is true, expect a political earthquake
Nah that cant be right. I trust the experts that said the thing that I feel is right and most convenient at the time.
TOSSAWAY_1··on China allows couples to have three children
Big of them
TOSSAWAY_1··on Biden Continues to Defend Social Media Registration Requirement
Well at least Biden doesnt support social media censorship /s
TOSSAWAY_1··on Biden to propose $6T budget, increasing spending to highest level since WWII
Not sure I agree with this due to the cause of the dip (willful) and the current inflation we're seeing.

I hope you're right.

TOSSAWAY_1··on Tony Hawk on his skateboarding legacy
Eh i wouldnt support a hard rule.

Likely I'd appeal to moms after I got the cool kids though, social media style.

The solution is to bring in more school marms?
TOSSAWAY_1··on U.S. Backs 15% Global Minimum Tax to Curb Profit Shifting Overseas
Exactly. These countries put forth policy they cannot afford and are out-competed via taxation. Allowing them to express force on smaller countries in an effort to reduce their profits seems mind blowingly aggressive.

I guess its the kind of dumb policy we have to put up with until someone points out that those affected by this are likely 'minorities" in western societies and is therefore racist/bigoted. Its the only way to argue nowadays.

TOSSAWAY_1··on What lies beneath: Evidence from leaked account data on offshore banking use
If the IRS knows how much money I owe why dont they just send me a bill?

So move it to countries not so authoritarian and interested in actually competing. Problem solved.
TOSSAWAY_1··on It’s not a ‘labor shortage,’ it’s a reassessment of work
Are you saying since other people do bad things we shouldnt aim to design systems that put productive people first?

At least in these other, and we agree equally scummy cases, theres some run-off benefit we can assume given the higher levels of profit and/or related risk.

"...get rid of all police because some cops are dangerous and corrupt" because I said I've seen welfare do more harm than good? Geez, makes total sense.

TOSSAWAY_1··on [dead]
To no ones surprise, or at least I hope not.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Things I wish someone told me about getting a promotion
I am right.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Despite social pressure, boys and girls still prefer gender-typical toys
Everyone of sound mind already knew this.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Pentagon confirms USS Omaha transmedium UFO video authentic
The age of evidence is behind us. It's all about expert opinion now, as you can infer from the other comments you've gotten.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Things I wish someone told me about getting a promotion
I'm entirely dismissive of a worldview that is based on inherited guilt and various slants informed by soft sciences with known reproducibility issues.

I make no apologies for it. I will continue to assume everyone lives unique lives.

TOSSAWAY_1··on Things I wish someone told me about getting a promotion
It's just the narrative slant of the era. Going to be super embarrassing as time goes on, just be sure to remember.
TOSSAWAY_1··on It’s not a ‘labor shortage,’ it’s a reassessment of work
Eh we agree on the solution, but only if the problem isn't manufactured via welfare as it currently is.
TOSSAWAY_1··on It’s not a ‘labor shortage,’ it’s a reassessment of work
Obvious that a lot of folks in the tech community did not grow up a poor Appalachian boy.

Welfare is a plague.

I know so many people who did not work because it would cut into their welfare.

I know so many homes that lived lies (separate fake addresses, never marrying) so they could get welfare.

I've seen welfare programs (wic, food stamps) exchanged for cash..

I've seen emergency rooms abused with medical cards (something most yuppies do not even know exists --- most do not seem to know most poor people already get free healthcare).

It's a sad thing. Reality on the privileged persons terms, I guess.

TOSSAWAY_1··on A new book, Amazon Unbound, reveals Jeff Bezos’ envy of SpaceX
Jesus, this post makes me want to vote for Donald Trump.
TOSSAWAY_1··on The FBI seized safe deposit boxes knowing ‘some’ belonged to ‘honest citizens’
You're not wrong.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Bob Dylan lays down what killed rock n roll (2016)
I know the rules and any reader knows I'm commenting on the very obvious slant we're given. It's substantive to acknowledge when something is more era than merit.
TOSSAWAY_1··on It’s not a ‘labor shortage,’ it’s a reassessment of work
Its humans behaving exactly as expected when given the choice against free money and working for money.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Bob Dylan lays down what killed rock n roll (2016)
Haha I guessed racism. Man I'm like 10/10 at guessing the proposed american narratives lately.
TOSSAWAY_1··on The True Story of the Minimum-Wage Fight
Sorry, then make it one hundred.
TOSSAWAY_1··on The True Story of the Minimum-Wage Fight
I support a two hundred dollar an hour minimum wage. It simply just pulls the most people out of poverty in a direct way.
TOSSAWAY_1··on Lumber mania is sweeping North America
Unless of course we've missed the time to raise them :)
