@Cokedupoptions The lotto is just another mechanism to transfer wealth to the state, whether that be tax revenue to the Feds or revenue generation for states and schools. It is just another tax that happens to make one lucky person rich.
@anthony22fk @DeAngelisCorey This ruling means a parent can send their kid to ANY type of private school using the tax dollars withheld for the education of their child. This isn’t a Christian vs secular issue. The tax we pay for our child’s edu is our money and education choice is a parent’s right.
@jordanbpeterson The amount of people who conflate this with free speech or fascism is astonishing. Free speech is not speech without consequence. Musk runs a business and his employees are publicizing a request to the COO for a coup. Firing them is the expected course a business would take.
@ScottAdamsSays One of your best tweets. I can hear the narrator in a movie about this moment during the collapse of civil society. “Addiction had hollowed them out and triggered a cognitive dissonance that tore them apart, all the while congratulating themselves on their free will and reason.”
@anders_aslund Imagine being a citizen in the Donbas over the years. First your own government bombed you. Now Russia bombs you. The one constant is the presence of paramilitary forces using you as human shields.
@RALee85 Do you foresee any part of the western response (ie CIA) being destabilization in Syria or creating other theaters of conflict that Russia feels compelled to respond to, and therefore stretch them further?
@ScottAdamsSays Confounding that leftist “liberals” are actually the conservatives who censor and force conformity. And those being labeled and silenced as “conservatives” are actually the liberals who fight for freedom and open debate.
@ScottAdamsSays Is god playing a cruel joke through the very existence of humans, their opinions and purposeless lives? The only things we have evolved to be good at is destroying our planet and blaming each other.
@ramez The plan lacks investment in gen 4 nuclear and favors inefficient, mining/resource intensive methods like solar. Humans need to live within the resources available to us. Right now there are mountains full of nuclear waste that gen 4 reactors can burn to create green energy.
