Interesting and well said.

It may sound harsh, but I am (almost) of the opinion that whatever the total number of "aid" agencies that exist in the world is. It is almost exactly the measure of how many too many aid agencies are in the world.

We are seeing via the USA discoveries about "aid" and how quickly and deeply they corrupt. The moment they are a business model their purpose is overtaken.

Have we ever seen an aid agency wind up because they solved the/a problem?

@LauraLoomer ... the kill switches will be well hidden...

Otherwise... not in a sane world!

PS, I cannot comprehend that declaration from the inside, nor even fully from the outside, but I think it will ultimately mark a monumental change point in history.

It seems you folks in Israel are the last ones standing who understand Islam and the threat it poses to every living being!

To be fair, there are individuals here and there, but even Trump appears to be pulled into the weeds right now.

Our generation may come to see the last words of Genesis 12:3 in a new light.

@Theblackfemini3 It's like they've got their heads so far in the echo chamber, they actually believe the sh.t they say!

Yes, I'm biased, but excess (of anything, even religion) is the problem..

I have not watched any of TC for a long while. I made it 12mins in and got reminded again of why I don't watch him!

All I learned before I would have vomited is that if you layer two or three falsities together, and they confirm each other, it can be declared as FACT!!

ps... It is a theme I am qualified to comment on:)

[Chris @cb25chris]

And then there's the parasitic red tapeworm shit...

This question to Grok was based on a real life conversation just two days ago:

"Grok, I talked with a builder in NSW the other day. He is planning to build a small house on a regional block of land. He is yet to dig a shovel of dirt up, but has spent $10k confronting regulations and red tape already. He has ended up engaging a "professional" to handle the submissions and red tape. Can this be for real in NSW? Apparently Councils have these "portals" that are nearly impossible, let alone the shit one is meant comply with."

And, yep. It is entirely true, and every facet of his build will have been affected by cascading layers of the same parasite!!

[Chris @cb25chris]

@avavidan True:)

Islam as a whole, of which they are part, may be a different picture - we are yet to see their global invasion slow.

[Chris @cb25chris]

So true.

The tax is an extortion!

When the income from a tax exceeds by BILLIONS the cost of medical care for smokers, it is not a tax.

It is extortion, AND theft from people who's desire to smoke is being taken advantage of by Government.

Even worse, when the predictable black market evolves, they double down with legislation and law enforcement to bully their way through their stupidity.

It is not clear who THE criminals really are.

Or perhaps it is...!

[Chris @cb25chris]

@LuanaGoriss Firmly No 1 now.

I was guilty of No2. The outcome of being born into Christianity. Raised in Christianity, and by osmosis pretty much No2.

Life is a journey of learning, and it is humbling to discover one was wrong about sooo many things! :(

[Chris @cb25chris]

Agreed!

To Morph Musk's
"Physics is Reality,
Everything else is advisory..."

The MOU is advisory,
Face to Face is Reality

I suspect it will quickly be a slap in the face.

It should not surprise to anybody, but probably will because there appears to be an element of brain rot involved!

[Chris @cb25chris]

If you are still using the word "extorted", after I have explained why I think some tax is needed, you have perhaps missed my point.

As you imply, the System is part of the problem, but one could hardly call it extortion if it is used as I described.

So, I'll leave it at that:)

[Chris @cb25chris]

It's not something I've crunched numbers on, but my gut feeling would be that up to 10% could be justifiable. (no/t gst)

If our Gov/via ATO only used our taxes for
-keeping us and our country safe,
-towns roads etc functional, and safe
- and with functional services ...

Then stopped wasting money as if our money was a trough for their snouts, and a global welfare system -

We would probably have a balanced budget on less than 10% of our wage!!

[Chris @cb25chris]

TSF.. If you want to live in a social grouping of any sort, paying your share (tax of some kind) for shared services is a given.

What do you want to do - live cost free:

Find or fight for some land/space/food/shelter etc... hunt? Grow stuff? Harvest stuff? Kill stuff?

You'd be an unwelcome barbarian with no social connections - give it a shot... Nobody will appreciate your company!

BUT, yes, the taxes our Gov's rip off us are WAY beyond what a fair social contract requires and amount to THEFT.

However, I for one am happy to pay my bit for the socially shared structures of a beneficial social contract:)

[Chris @cb25chris]

yossi, "...Russia started a war against Ukraine for no reason."

Russia "started" a war in response to the encroachment of NATO via Ukraine. YOU, of all people (in Israel?) should understand what hostile neighbors mean!!

No reason, THAT is what people say about Israel when they don't understand the context and hostility of your. neighbors!

And, yes, of course Israel has no ambitions to take over other countries. Where did I say that?

The only reference I made to land was that, in my opinion Israel is entitled to more of their historical land:)
