Are we morally obliged to keep feeding people who can’t feed themselves but continue to reproduce, creating exponentially more people who can’t feed themselves, and if so, is there a limiting principle to this?

[GrumpyGuy @GrumpyGuy149642]

@Trogdor404 @TheLaurenChen Exactly but the point is we should try to be compatible with our biology and not work against it. That is inherently a more healthy and typically happier path.

Tech has a hard on for trying to replace physicians.

Wrong target.

Replace the 19 layers between the physician and the paycheck.

That’s where the bodies are buried.

In Japan, we typically ran the AC at 28°C (82°F) during the day and lowered it to 24°C (75°F) at night while we slept. In the US, I find 76°F very comfortable. I don’t understand people who keep their AC at 72°F or lower. That’s expensive and makes the transition outdoors uncomfortable. Of course, the ideal setting depends on the outside temperature and humidity. Since I work outdoors often, I acclimate to the heat much better by not overusing AC.

@Adam_FaithfulM Christians exhibit all eight traits in the Beatitudes. I used to think Jesus was discussing different types of individuals, but now I’m convinced He was describing the traits that all true believers exhibit (or endeavor to exhibit).

IF A COYOTE CAME TO YOUR HOME, WOULD YOU PUT HIM IN YOUR CHICKEN COOP HOPING HE WOULD INTEGRATE?

DIDN'T THINK SO...
STOP THE INVASION OF ISLAM!

I don’t know about you, but I’m getting a little tired of waiting for our political class, including the president, to wake up. Americans are fed up. Islam, mass immigration, H-1B visa fraud, election fraud, etc. The list is long, and they aren’t doing nearly enough to fix it.

[InfantryDort @infantrydort]

The President is going to have to figure it out on his own just like the rest of us did. This can’t be explained to him just like it couldn’t be explained to us.

One must bash their head against the wall repeatedly with these room temperature IQ, impulse control having barbarians before you finally say “looks like it’s fuck this shit o’clock” and start destroying them without mercy.

He appears to be a benevolent man at his core. And benevolent people take longer to come around to the truth of fellow humans being very bad. Because benevolent people are inherently good.

It takes time for that benevolence to turn into betrayal. But when it does, the fury burns white hot.

He will experience this. It is inevitable. Nobody is immune from the results of dealing with the retardation that is radical Islam.

[GrumpyGuy @GrumpyGuy149642]

We are a sick society, because many who are in positions of authority excuse crime tribally. It goes against everything America stands for.

[InfantryDort @infantrydort]

A society is in trouble when it condemns crimes selectively and excuses them tribally.

The fastest way to destroy trust is to demand collective guilt from one group and collective innocence from another.

Healthy society condemns evil consistently.

A sick one checks demographics first.

Let me die at home. I’d rather buy an Optimus robot to take care of me in my own home than be incarcerated in a nursing home. Plus, do the math. There is no way they can justify rates of $10K a month. They are fleecing the elderly (and robbing the young of an inheritance).

[New World Disorder 1111 @NWDisorder1111]

For those who don't know:

The AVERAGE cost of a nursing home in America has now hit $10,000 per MONTH.

Medicare doesn't pay and unless you're destitute and have not spent a dime over "basic expenses" for the past 5 years, you won't get Medicaid.

This is a crisis.

@NoahJPacifico @AndrewZywiecMD I know of many people who are adamantly opposed to the T in LGBT but claim they’re fine with the LGB. All of it is dysfunctional by nature.

Debt is neither inherently good nor bad. It’s how it’s used. Dave Ramsey offers some practical advice on how to get out of debt, but Ken here has a better take on how debt is often a necessary element in building wealth. It all depends on how the borrowed money is used.

[Ken McElroy @kenmcelroy]

Dave Ramsey says all debt is stupid. Credit cards, student loans, car payments, borrowing against your house. All of it.

He says your income is your number one wealth-building tool, and the second you hand it to someone else, you give up your economic future.

He is half right.

On credit cards, I agree completely. You are paying 28 to 30% on that.

But notice what he never mentions. Cost of capital. That is the whole game, and he skips it.

High-priced student debt, fine. But my own loans were at 3%, and they were the only way I got into college. I paid them back over time. That was a good investment, not a stupid one.

Where he is dead wrong is real estate.

Debt on real estate lets you use other people's money to buy an asset that pays for itself. That is what he misses.

His whole philosophy depends on you earning more income. But with wages growing 3% while inflation runs 3%, you never get ahead.

You run in place like a rat in a wheel, the exact thing he is warning you about. The only way out is to own hard assets that produce cash flow, and you buy those with debt.

Here is the difference between us. He thinks all debt is bad. I think debt is a tool. Good debt and bad debt, high cost and low cost, and that difference is everything.

He once said he would not take a billion dollars at zero interest. A billion dollars, costing him nothing. Put it in Treasuries and that is 30 to 40 million a year for doing nothing. He said he would pass. That is lunacy.

When I borrow on real estate, someone else covers it. Always. The office building you work in and the Starbucks you walk into all carry debt, and the tenants pay it back.

I own a single-family house, my tenant pays off the loan. I do not pay it. I do not need more income. I just need to keep a good tenant in that house. And yes, you get vacancies and turnover and the occasional problem tenant, but that is what management is for. He never had to learn that, because he does not use debt.

And here is the part almost nobody gets. It is your money anyway. The cash sitting in your retirement account or your bank is yours. You are just borrowing it back at a lower rate and finding a tenant to cover it.

That is why I disagree with him on debt. Used right, it is not the enemy. It is the entire engine.

[GrumpyGuy @GrumpyGuy149642]

@infantrydort Who really cares if we are called Islamophobic? Islam’s core tenants are incompatible with western civilization and American ideals.

@skillz17q We need right to repair laws.

[GrumpyGuy @GrumpyGuy149642]

It’s hard to believe, but it’s true. There’s an accessible OBD2 connector under the dash, but it’s limited. Full bidirectional data is blocked by the Security Gateway Module. A bypass harness often requires dash panel removal. We need Right to Repair laws.

[All4Freedom🇺🇲🐸🍿 @skillz17q]

Chrysler & Dodge have lost their damn minds!

I can't even plug a basic OBD2 scanner into my 2018 Ram without installing a bypass harness AND tearing the dash apart.

This anti-owner, anti-DIY garbage is exactly why this is the LAST Ram I'll ever buy. I work on ALL my automobiles myself and refuse to crawl back to the dealership like they want.

Corporate greed locking out real mechanics ends now.

Amazing. God is guiding my hand. Yesterday I posted about WPATH pushing a library of child porn and eunuch sex fantasies - today this news breaks. May these people come to realize that their dark, sexual fantasies & fetishes are not normal, they are evil. And we will not be pressured or intimidated or bullied into condoning any of it. We will fight back, and we will protect all children from them.
