I am old, curious, sentient and somewhat sapient. In case some useful wisdom was accrued in the course of my life, I post thoughts, comments, quips and questions on this crazy electronic bulletin board. Occasional satire or sarcasm not meant to offend but rather to educate.

@matt_vanswol They’re senile and have nothing better to do.

@AjarCreate @Koobzy @gary_eth @Dumfukdetector Our regulatory agencies make things move far too slowly compared to other countries.

How could any of them vote no on this if they were at all concerned about the sovereignty of the people and the states they represent? Who in blue New York would consign the residents of their district to the whims of a conservative judge in a red part of Texas? Likewise for conservatives. It’s tantamount to putting special interests in charge of constitutional checks and balances. National matters are properly addressed in the Supreme Court. Our Constitution doesn’t eleven mention federal district courts because it never intended for the federal government to have so much power in the first place.

It’s a fact of human nature and our innate behavioral predispositions that any collection of people larger than about 150 cannot function as cohesively, efficiently or effectively as a smaller group or tribe.. We live with the shortcomings of too large organizations, areas of too much population density and all of the maladies and pathologies that accrue from that. Either resign ourselves to those unpleasant facts and effects or fundamentally reorganize society and government.

Why haven’t we voted on tariffs in the House of Representatives?

Because Speaker Johnson is using Rules Committee Resolutions, consummated by majority votes of the whole House, to declare that “a day is not a day” in order to AVOID THE U.S. LAW that requires Congress to vote.

@1Nicdar Don’t make a pet out of him because he’s likely to badger you constantly.

The problem is that even without tariffs the US suffers from tariffs. Our regulatory constraints, labor and employment laws, unions etc, All have the effect of taxing productivity in ways that competing countries don’t. There is not a level playing field.

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

Perhaps more people should watch this video about what free markets do, and what tariffs do not.

@Real_Comfyfren It worked once and I’m pretty damn sure it will work again.
