By Lunatic Go To PostIt's so strange to me that the most powerful and the richest country that ever existed refuses to invest in their most valuable asset, their human capital. I honestly just don't get it. In regards to taxing the ultra high net worth (UHNW) individuals it really doesn't even change their life style at all because the options available to those individuals allow them to be outside of these options. The real issue is that UHNW are stateless, they have mobility and the capital to set up complex structures to avoid taxation.Slave economy
The humans aren't supposed to have options

A knife-wielding man in fancy dress started a fire on a Keio Line train in Tokyo on Sunday night, leaving 17 people injured, one seriously, authorities said, as revelers were heading to the city center for Halloween.Dressed as the Joker as well...
Police arrested the 24-year-old man, who identified himself as Kyota Hattori, at the scene on suspicion of attempted murder. A male passenger in his 70s was in critical condition after being stabbed in the chest as the train was moving around 8 p.m.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. President Joe Biden’s domestic agenda suffered a significant setback on Monday when moderate Democratic Senator Joe Manchin announced he would not yet support a $1.75 trillion framework unveiled late last week.Joe Lieberman 2.0
“I won’t support a multi-trillion bill without greater clarity,” Manchin, a holdout who has often served as a critical roadblock to Biden’s agenda, told reporters.
At least none of this will matter when the GOP takes back congress for good next year
It's the pretending that irks me the most
It's the pretending that irks me the most
It will get worse as Dems on shaky ground jockey for votes by leaning even further to the right - giving the GOP even more freedom for shenanigans
so that's cool
so that's cool
Been following this case for years, it’s absolutely insane. Dude is still hiding out - some people think the Chinese government is sheltering him somewhere.
The book about the story called Billion Dollar Whale is a great read and worth checking out.

By DY_nasty Go To Posti'd be shocked if dems win this gov race in virginia
lol there is that

By DY_nasty Go To Posti'd be shocked if dems win this gov race in virginiaMcAullife is a boring candidate that ran a bad campaign and turned independents against him with the "parents shouldn't have a say in what's being taught in schools" line. He basically campaigned against Trump (notably not on the ballot) instead of saying what he could actually do for people.
If he pulls it out, it'll be real narrow. He barely won in 2013 against a worse Republican nominee.
Education is a weird balance. On one hand you really don't want the government to have unchecked, unfettered control of what should be taught and you don't want stupid people having that same power lol

It is one of those weird areas. The press is similar.
Crazy parents get their way though, and half the country will get a patriots education sprinkled with intelligent design
Parents can't be fucking trusted to do right by their own children is the short of it that's why you need shit like sexual education in schools. Fuck parents.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostParents can't be fucking trusted to do right by their own children is the short of it that's why you need shit like sexual education in schools. Fuck parents.The government is super trustworthy tho.
No need to go down that road either, just sayin', parents can't even do basic shit like inform their children of their own bodily functions.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostParents can't be fucking trusted to do right by their own children is the short of it that's why you need shit like sexual education in schools. Fuck parents.Yeah, but if you look over something in said sexual education material and think its not something you want your kid introduced to then it's completely acceptable to at least have a fair dialogue with the teacher.
The most common headache is parents having no interest or investment in their child's own education. The fuck parents thing is a big fucking whiff that's made what should be an easy election into a nail biter all because campaign strategists memed too hard. All that did was piss off the people who were actively involved to begin with 😂 if your kid learned a certain way better than others and you wanted to communicate that, this is not what you want to hear from a candidate.
Especially in VA where these teachers are going through it just trying to get kids back in the building. There's huge hurdles in education due to increased demands and changing demographics. There's a massive need for ESL teachers, the remote learning dud set back many kids who were already struggling, and a lot of these parents want to see more out of their taxes than new computer labs with the same shitty grades and crowded classrooms.
It's one of those things you definitely don't say it out loud like that and you just do your bit on paper to ensure that kids get some basic shit at school, unfortunately food doesn't fall in that category yet cause this country is fucked up.
But that's the problem, it's not the parents who cut budgets and basic life skill classes out the curriculum. I mean sex ed is only an issue because babies having babies ends up costing the government. 🤷🏾♂️
That fuck the parents thing can work if you measure out your audience and read the room in advance. It's got no place in an election. At least when Hillary called people deplorables you could point out and describe exactly who was targeted.
If you want to call out hypocrite parents who leave their kids to be essentially raised by the public school system then do just that - but this is also the VA democrat platform so you'll have to find a way to do it without attacking the same folks you spent the first half of every speech trying to appease

It's interesting because Japan works on the fuck the parents, except for the PTA which actually runs around the school like the inquisition.
The results are parents expecting the school to teach the kids everything. Can't sit still? School fucking up. Can't use chopsticks? School fucking up. Doesn't respect authority? School fucking up...
It's pretty wild.

I can see that. Probably all sorts of cultural differences.

If the majority gets the vaccine (already happened), wouldn't the tracking method just be the lack of said marker? Critical thinking brehs
These are the same people who travel around with much more sophisticated tracking systems in their pockets and gladly post all kinds of private information on social media.
