Lets see, things I want to get accomplished in this lifetime:
- Run for politics
- Create a independent news media org that can't be bought out
- Create a unionised, global logistics company
- Sponsor a (mostly) creator race team at the 24 Heures du Mans
Seeing where all these data centers are being built/proposed is like they definitely chose those locations on purpose. I don't know why else it would be next to the NASHVILLE ZOO
In the United States, 1 generation (maybe 2) has had the benefits of: Plentiful Public and Private sector jobs, Unions, Pensions, and Education.
Compare to the outgoing generations, all that is basically non-existent
🚨 The LARGEST "hyperscale" data center in the world is being proposed in Box Elder County, Utah.
It's approx. 40,000 acres/62 square miles, backed by Canadian millionaire Kevin O’Leary.
Fast-tracked by Utah’s Military Installation Development Authority, backed by Gov. Spencer Cox, with the public locked out of the decision process.
Utah, say hello to a 50% increase in CO₂ emissions, polluted water, and 24/7 noise and light pollution.
Seeing how everyone is being like “the democrats made spirit airlines fail.” The US economy isn’t a laissez-faire economy. The airline industry is essentially the most sensitive industry since it requires disposable income and low oil prices. Anti trust exits to prevent monopoly
The way the “middle class” in the US, or at least how I was told what it was, is basically just white collar jobs. More I think about it the way working class was described was kind of derogatory. Kind of makes sense why the attitude toward working class is the way it is.
Here’s a 5.9M condo in Manhattan. It’ll be bought by someone Mamdani/Hochul claim isn’t paying their “fair share”. They’ll pay a $132,000 mansion tax at closing. And then pay $5200 a month in property taxes. Mamdani and Hochul will now add another tax to this bill.
Thing I’ve noticed about conservatives and conservative media is that they find a way to complain about anything. Down to the smallest details. “I’m mad because my McDonald’s order is missing pickles” or something
Americans have been so brainwashed, especially republicans, that tyranny is when government provides for its citizens and its not tyranny to take away constitutional rights as long as its not the second amendment. Everything else is fair game
Shit. I was looking at the Call of Duty games and the fact that Black Ops is still regular price is insane. I want to see what COD game I missed out on since 4, when I last played an entry
What’s wild is that most are 1-3 generations separated from the post colonial independence. There are about 4-5 generations since the end of the transatlantic slave trade and we are about 1-2 generations from the civil rights movement.
Numbers might be underestimated
Also in context, Amazon pays a lower effective tax rate than I do. I think my tax rate is around 9% just because I make slightly too much money after deductions
Middle-class Americans can expect to pay $900 more in taxes under Trump’s OBBB, and many red states will see over a $1000 increase.
The top 1% can expect $117 billion in tax cuts this year, one part of their $1 trillion reduction over the 10 years.
While major corporations dodge taxes this season, the bottom 95% is shafted with tax hikes brought on by tariffs.
If you love capitalism so much without owning capital then:
-Shouldn’t complain when prices go up
-Should embrace layoffs and low pay
-Be happy when a big warehouse opens up in your neighborhood
-Embrace monopolies and market consolidation
This is the way of capitalism
just a FYI NASA does more than just go into space. Apart from space research they also experiment with different wing designs and aircraft designs that could possibly work in the future. Like Blended Wing Body designs, forward swing sweeps and so forth
#BREAKING 🚨: Donald Trump has proposed a 47% cut to NASA science funding, alongside the 23% cut to the agency's overall budget
This would be the largest single-year budget cut in NASA's history
“Don’t learn that in college learn STEM.” *learns stem and finds out there’s only a handful of jobs*
“Why’d you go to college learns a trade.” *when the amount of money you can make goes down all the tradesman loses their mind*
Congress hasn't formally declared war since 1942. So by your logic, every single military action since then has been an "illegal order", including the ones ordered by Obama and Biden.
