Why is it legal to use?

“beryllium is safely used commercially in numerous products”…why is this legal. Did nobody think about fires?

“…total goods consumed has to e down at this point”, is the problem. People just do less; it’s also vicious circle. Once housing and food are paid, very little is left. Manufacturing slides, and everyone wants to be a landlord. Increasing the cost of housing. With people buying fewer things, their is less choice. A couple of big monopolies take over the few remaining industries, and over even less choice, as they make cuts. Without disposable time/income, people join fewer clubs, and have fewer hobbies. Wood working, pottery, all cost a fortune.

Didn’t the math world just give up on journals, and move to open publishing, since the journal system wasn’t working

A 14 year old should be allowed to a 100cc motorcycle (not no highway, not at night). They are not fast, and the only person they could really hurt are themselves. France has a classification of small cars that can’t go very fast, that anyone is allowed to drive, can’t go over 28mph https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35210572 These are helpful in rural areas, for elderly that use them for groceries. I feel that such a car would cover 95% of the population living in suburbs.

Good, these are the real taxes to cut. Instead of the ones on private airplanes.

It’s about how successful your parents were. If your dad is a mechanic, has his own shop, then you might want to consider some form of trade school that also teaches the business side of running a shop. Or becoming a machinist to complement his skills, and still make use of his tools and floor space. If you’re going to be a plumber but end up working for a large corporation, because you don’t have capital to start your own business, things will be tougher. You’ll hours might be bad, the pension they offer might not be good.
Everyone’s situation is different, and the future will be different from now.

Turn them in community centers.

Rework how how education is done, by mixing programming you’d find in a community center and a regular school.

People complain that education is not currently working, here is your chance to re-envision it. Build large spaces with welding/3dpriners/car repair. Have mixed classes not based on age, with adults and teens.

Musk bought Twitter for $50B, in comparison the price tag for repairing any of these schools seems like half a peanut in cost. There is money.

It’s one economic unit.

The rest of the world sees the USA, Mexico and Canada as basically one country, and laugh at this.

The banality of stupidity.

*You consulted no one. You did no research. When peopled pleaded with you to stop, you forged ahead with reckless abandonment. When you plan started to fail, you doubled down. When it was time to clean up the mess you go lazy.

But I thought it would work, I felt it in my gut. It’s not my fault, it’s your fault.*

He also forced some dumb features in the electric car…like the stupid door handles, and lack of buttons.

Bad form. This is a real topic, with real world issues.

4 years might as well be a lifetime in politics.
NDP don’t want an election right now, they don’t have a leader.

PP has no seat, there will be no by-election anytime soon. What happens to the conservatives in the next few weeks, infighting? Trump is a total wildcard, the next month sometime will have to be done with tariffs as basic goods start to dwindle. Not to mention all the wars going on in the world, or have a chance of breaking out (India/Pakistan).

The government is too easy on crime and we grant people bail who are dangerous to release.

The left has dropped the ball on crime. Official lefty party lines on crime, of tolerating criminals, doesn’t resonate with ordinary people.

Gun control is a waste of time and money and isn’t tackling the real issue as nearly all gun crime isn’t committed by legal gun owners.

The right has created a wedge issue, and exploited it with Twitter trolls and paid shills. We’d be better off doing what Australia did, and ban almost everything.

More housing needs to be made (note that both major parties seem to agree on this).

The right sees it as building more housing, and think it is a simple fix. A small proportion of progressive voices see it as a complex issue of finance and trying to remove corporate ownership of residential stock. The subtle arguments have a hard time being heard.

More infrastructure needs to be built to capitalize on our oil and natural resources exports.

I’ve given up mostly, the planet will burn. Our species is too stupid, eventually we’ll go extinct. Climate will degrade, wars will escalate, and sooner or latter someone will push The Button.

The ‘rust belt’ is over 40 years old now. Places like Detroit have started to stabilize.

The high cost of living is everywhere. Capital moves in the blink of an eye, setup a company in a small town and it’ll be bought up and rented out before lunch.

Conservatives made significant inroads, lots of people in Ontario and Atlantic Canada that heard and liked the anti-woke messaging. I don’t know how to bring these people around, and am frightened that there are so many of them. Over 40% of the popular vote.

Of course it will … hahahahaha

Taiwan specializes in microchips, and China having to order chips from them isn’t a big deal … in terms of building/assembling an electric car.

The laws state that regular cars need to meet many regulations, while trucks are exempt from them. So trucks got larger. And without competition from foreign trucks, they got even larger.

Where is the U.S.A going to get the extra gas/petrol? They are an importer of energy themselves. LOL
