>> The group even talked about—and eventually dismissed—the idea of leaving the market entirely

> That's good enough reason for anyone to get off GCP.

I fail to see how this is even a reason to get off GCP, yet a good one.

8.2 million view total. Tim Pool gets this much each month, and just on his main channel. Does not seem like a huge campaign, compared to a good mainstream political commentary.

“Paper of making up the record”, as they say.

While NYT themselves just shadow-edited the article about HRC calling Tulsi a Russian asset to a Republican asset.

> non-residents can't cut through them.

Non-residents shouldn’t pay taxes to maintain those roads either then.

> Maybe the CIA has an island somewhere?

Where they invite prominent figures and then record them doing nefarious things in order to ‘mind’ control them later? Nah, this is conspiracy theories territory.

Orange man bad, amirite?

The best of the best of the best, Sir! With Honours!

> old Vietnamese couple

They are not old, they are only 55 according to the documents. /s

> In my family we are collecting climate data since 1948

Do you happen to know in what years were the previous temperature records set? Could it be they were set prior to 1948?

> you can't yell fire in a crowded room and not get litigation and charges brought against you.

Of course you can yell 'fire' in a crowded room and not have any charges that stick brought against you. Are you arguing the point it is not allowed to yell to a large audience? Or there is something else here you are not mentioning, like for example whether or not the statement is true is the actual crux of the matter? Of course you can yell 'fire' in a crowded room - if there is a fire!

> Then they figured out how to use Facebook to get themselves a POTUS

One might wonder why didn't Hilliary figure out how to use Facebook. The answer might be, that she did, but just like with the Russia buying their own ads with peanuts money compared to the DNC spend - it didn't really matter. Seeing people parrot the Russia narrative, the same day the Man himself testified that it didn't actually happen, entertains me a bit.

I just did a Google search from China and nothing is coming up. I guess you are right, we should not worry as nothing had happened. information is organized and is universally accessible and useful.

Why aren’t you using old.reddit when you are signed in?

In the US embassy? Never, I would hope.

> like the murder of a US resident

When was the last time the murder of a US resident on foreign soil investigated and/or prosecuted by the US?

You verify it when you select where to give your money. Otherwise they are forcefully taken from you and distributed, and the most you can say about it is filling a ballot every two years.

Do you think welfare state actually distributes funds to whoever needs them? They are giving funds away to everyone who can check x boxes on a form, no one in the government ever verifies if the person actually needs the money, like a charity would do.

There have been stories about Costco exit check not being about theft at all, it’s mostly about checking for possible errors or fraud on the part of the cashier

> How do you implement change?

Someone big and local has to step in, let the the workers leave on time yet kick everyone’s butt on the market. Then everyone will start copying the practices.

“Coup de grace” caught my attention as well. It showed a speaker with a very notable RP pronouncing this phase with a very fake sounding French ‘r’ and no ‘s’ in the end, when the s sound is clearly present in the French and modern English pronunciation. Some might say that he butchered it.

Global Entry gives you TSA Pre for free. If you don’t fly international at all then paying $25 less just for TSA might be a good option.

It took one pilot who knew what he was doing.

> They are [evacuation slides] designed for no other purpose than to empty a plane of its occupants as rapidly as possible.

They are also designed to be flotation devices.

> Why is it okay for rich people to receive free money but not everyday people?

Because consent of the giving person is present in the inheritance case but not in case of the government redistribution?

> Consider, you have a job, an apartment, dignity.

> Without taxation you would have none of these. You would be a surf or servant, or simply dead.

I do not agree with this premise, especially since you have provided no proof that it is based in reality. If you were to guess, what was the income tax in the US in 1900 and were everyone there a surf [sic], servant or dead?

> presumably you are making less money than those who can.

That’s a bit of a stretch, especially considering that I have specifically mentioned the fact that a lot of people don’t seem to care about their financial situation when having children. And then apparently it is “humane” to take other peoples resources by force through government to pay for their expenses. Who need these barbaric consensual charities anyway.

I have yet to see the numbers that support this position.

Because most of those things scale very well for the amount of people that use them. Medical care on the other hand does not scale at all.

I am also wondering why I have to subsidize everyone else's kids while not being able to afford my own, since I have relatively high standards for what a stable financial situation should be before I have them. Charity is voluntary while taxation is not.
