No. The stove causes pollution. This is the same as smoking around children. And it’s not addictive. Getting rid of it should be easy.

Americans are not fans of centralized information on the population. It doesn’t help that the corporate equivalent to Voldemort is trying to sell it as a means of “law and order”. Something every American understands is meant to screw with us. Literally every time we give the government a new database they abuse it. The most recent is connecting a medical database to immigration enforcement.

So yeah. If we could stop electing people under the motto, “The Cruelty Is The Point”, then we could have nice things.

It’s not an automatic denial either though. You can N/A those sections if you don’t have the information. They may ask you to fill out an extra form but if you’re an adult they may also just accept it if everything else is okay. What you shouldn’t do is lie on the form. So don’t N/A something where you do have the information.

A country where the people aren’t secure from random acts of violence by their government isn’t a country at all.

What even the what? Are you sure you replied to the right comment?

Living inside the system is not consent to the system. Comparing doctors to cops is ridiculous. Cops entire reason for existence is to defend the system.

Even if that’s true.

Autism

Or

Rabies

What the actual fuck?

Sure, and what do you call a doctor without an employer?

Either rich or unemployed.

If they don’t come from money then they aren’t going to work for themselves until late in their career. Just like good trades people. Having toys doesn’t mean shit if your existence is still predicated on employment.

Yup

Nobody is disputing that.

Then the term definitely doesn’t apply to the “professional” class in the US. You generally aren’t hanging your own shingle until late in your career or if you came from money. Doctors are very much reliant on employers here and most of the West.

If you look at the polling on the universal policies then you’ll see they very much do. It’s hard not to be aware that you would starve if you didn’t have a job.

What happens if the petit-bourgeoisie stop working? No food? Oh shiiiiit.

It’s almost like that’s a term used to discredit members of the working class. Don’t go throwing away allies in the fight to end the rich.

Put the litmus test away. PPP is a real thing and pretending it isn’t is not going to earn you any friends. A two bedroom condo in the US is easily 600,000 USD. The problem isn’t the people trying to get off the rental treadmill it’s the people making prices that high so we need high wages to live. In other words, the elite in the wealthiest countries are fucking everyone over, not just Panamanian farmers.

The far more troubling problem to me is the division of wealth inside the countries. If we tackled that then there would also be a lot more money for the workers at the foreign owned factory in Hungary. You are right that the national income isn’t the problem, but you’re missing that the wealth gap in the wealthiest countries feeds the gap between countries and regions too.

You had me in the first half…

There’s no 30 second rest on my phone. They have 3 tries.

Not us, SCOTUS said it.

CBP; ACLU Maine; ACLU

They have to “develop probable cause” to do more than check your ID but we’ve seen how easy that is over the years. At the end of the day they will make up the probable cause if they need to. But even more importantly this is the authority they’re using to have Border Patrol conduct military style patrols in our cities.

Rights must apply to all persons in the US. Or else the government may assign you to the non rights group at it’s discretion. As an example, you’re a citizen. The government says you are not. You try to go to court to prove it, but oops you don’t have that right. Your family opens a court case, but they either get ruled to not have standing or they get swiftly assigned to the non rights group as well.

Nobody has Rights until Everyone has Rights.

That increasingly means nothing. Remember that judge who was sending kids to reform camps for kickbacks? Part of that scheme was they literally made up charges. If the system says it’s a charge and you need to be punished then that’s what’s going to happen. Juries aren’t even a thing until you get to major felonies anymore so it’s just whatever the judge lets the prosecutor get away with.
