We need to hold road infrastructure to the same consideration as we do transit and rail. If we didn’t give it unlimited funding, then it would already be doing this.
We are wasting trillions and losing so much economic growth by doubling down on a bad investment year after year for decades. Imagine if this money was put into education or healthcare or transit. We’d actually have a net benefit!
I haven’t verified these claims, nor do I have the background knowledge to form an opinion. I don’t care. Seems plausible and I think Irish were within the definition of “black” a century ago.
Is it because you don’t believe in this? Or do you think it is astroturfing with bad intentions similar to the anti women memes plastering social media (where it is some wrong committed by a woman with 100s of bot comments saying all women are bad)? Kinda like repeating long ago marginalizations of white people to stir up a feeling of wronghood among older more conservatives white men?
If not, lose or win you aren’t responsible for any but playing the game.
If someone consensually drinks raw milk and gets sick, that’s on them. If a parent makes their kid drink that and the kid gets sick, that is potentially child abuse.
I think the main concern here is some undereducated or easily buying into conspiracy theories/conservative individuals would feed their kids raw milk.
There are lots of things that are not good you that parents give their children and they are totally legal.
I think debating this or trying to fight against it is a waste of time rather than bigger issues.
This is perhaps more tragic since it’s the fault of bad infrastructure and broken justice system empowering narcissists and criminals
California is much more likely to have better social services and AFAIK it is less violent in poor neighborhoods than southern states
I would much rather be poor in NYC than Georgia
Drop in S3 compatibility with much better performance would be insane
So everyone is pigeonholed into something you want
