even if it’s true there will be people to take advantage of it. the sf bay created its own toxic political environment and they’re paying the price.
It’s always a game of cat and mouse. Legalizing small time bribery where it can be done out in the open would probably be far more effective then advocating for things like increased workplace surveillance.
Thinking commerce can happen without corruption or kickbacks is just naive.
Being up front and honest about what you want, including what you don’t want, is an incredible force multiplier.
Some people can’t handle it and that’s ok with me. It just means we likely won’t work together effectively. I view it as a matter of maturity, we’re all adults here.
I don’t pander and I make that clear up front. Almost everyone respects and responds positively.
I work full time and my wife uses the time the kids are at school to manage activities, the home, etc.
Home school would be explored if we had a live in nanny and perhaps someone to help design a curriculum.

I have severe cardiovascular problems and cannot get the vaccine. I’m judged and called an antivaxxer all the time. It’s not us vs them, we’re all in it together.
Being open and honest is always the best path. Especially when you disagree.

There is a price for everything, including human lives. Lose a limb? Eye? There’s a price for it all, even a oil spill.
Whether it’s enough is an entirely different conversation.
The post you replied to is spot on.
