@christopherrufo Yes. But, there are a LOT of communists in Tech. Ironically.

@SamFarringtonNH Tread carefully. AI is a bubble, and could be the largest pump and dump in a generation. When the dump happens, will we be left with a massively overbuilt and vacant infrastructure for an industry that has contracted 80%?

@jyn_urso "Third, what I see here are a bunch of antisocial idiots who are unwilling to do their part"
Ah, I see you have met humans. That is a core, immutable, behavior. Human nature, you might say. (See also: why socialism or anything collective doesn't work.)

@JamesSurowiecki It's not the number that's the problem. It's that there has to be a number at all. It smacks of the third world, the Soviet Union, where problems don't have solutions.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@Don_Lou52 @NYCMayor Ok, but... WHY can the power grid not keep up? That'd be the EcoCommies keeping new generating plants being built.

@SquirrelParty @WifiMoneyPlant When that happened to me I said it depends on your rates, got the price, looked at the rates and said nah cash. The finance guy tried to talk me out of it but I politely kept saying no. If they get pissy you just walk out.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@SquirrelParty @WifiMoneyPlant Always negotiate the price before you even walk in, like via text. Don't tell them you're paying cash until you get the bottom line number locked. They'll assume you're financing. I've done it this way a few times, always felt like I got a fair deal.

@PeterSchiff The people who are willing to listen already know the government is a sewer of criminality. Many of us have been railroaded too. But there aren't enough people willing to listen. I don't know how to fix that, other than let the pain be felt.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@YepISaidIt83 @BigT_Broncos No, you teach grit and toughness in controlled environments. Bullying in schools today is much worse than even in recent past. Parents today are awful and raising feral, animal children. Why would you knowingly send your child to deal with future felons alone?

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@granitellama @thehealthb0t Thanks!

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@granitellama @thehealthb0t How do you find a doctor in Costa Rica that you can trust? Serious question for a, uh, friend...

@RomanjiAlexina @SlumRNA_Dog Abortions performed to save the life of the mother are well under 1% total abortions in the US. Sure, create exceptions for those cases, it's practically self-defense. I'm far more concerned about the other elective 99%. So for 99.7% of abortions, your argument invalid.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@RomanjiAlexina @SlumRNA_Dog Why? Serious question. Why is the woman's life worth more than that of the child? They are both human beings, killing a human being is murder.

Also, if the woman is going to murder a large % of those "9,000~" lives, your argument is self-defeating.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@MorrisonMalaise @ThatTimeYouSaw @SlumRNA_Dog "Cells" that will bring forth consciousness. If you kill the "cells" you kill the consciousness. Also when does consciousness start? Define a week and state why that week. Go ahead.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@RomanjiAlexina @SlumRNA_Dog "Just let the parents murder their kids, it ain't your problem!"

Do you see the problem here?

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@US_of_Z Some parents are awake to this. There are solutions: Earn just enough. Make huge sacrifices. One parent stays home. Homeschool. No screens, books and bikes only. Find others like you. Give the gift of an 80's childhood, it is worth the sacrifice.

SAU meetings in NH go like this:
1) school officials want big money for pet projects;
2) citizens object;
3) officials threaten citizens with exaggerated educational catastrophes if they don't get unlimited money;
4) citizens get scared, vote yes.

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

Town Meeting Saturday is great in NH. It's a great feeling to sit in a room with your fellow townspeople as they vote to steal even more of your money so they can spend it on useless retarded shit. #Community

[Granite Dad @TheGraniteDad]

@ghghhhhjbb67838 @1776Railfan Even if he does, who cares? Getting elected to Congress today is like being elected to the Council of Retards, they do nothing, no one respects them and they have no real power. The state gov is what matters.

@mlbushnell81 @heresyfinancial @grok Anything more complex than a universal flat tax will become corrupted/abused and inevitably devolve into the system we have now. A flat tax is the most fair system possible when applied to reality.
