@Barney_H_Y In the u.s when there is bad snow the trains stop. It's not because the u.s is poor it's the same reason investment vs gain. Whereas in Canada trains don't stop as it's worth the investment given the frequency of harsh winter.
@Barney_H_Y Your reason that it's poorer is true. But it's not the reason we don't have aircon. The correct reason is for the amount of investment it isn't worth it for the few days when necessary.
@TheHost_ Yes your right to be pissed off. Other people's parents have made wiser choices than yours. But don't think that there is no effect for your parents. Homeowners are more likely to have kids and have more kids. My parents now have 5 grandkids in part due to their decisions.
@TheHost_ I don't need to ask my mum and dad for £50 as they have ensured I have a strong financial footing and yet. They haven't given me a penny. As a parent myself I would say that it is your parents responsibility to ensure your kids are set up such that they never need to ask for £50.
@BasilTheGreat No asylum system. For political reasons only granted by the PM only, no financial support from government by default to remove financial incentive from poor people.
@johnofgauntlet@_nlaofficial@ClimbingCoachX Yeah spot on. Like x is interesting because of the free speech stuff. But it doesn't half have a load of rage baiters and people just ripping on each other just because they can.
@_nlaofficial@ClimbingCoachX China is trying to rectify what? That the country enjoys basketball? Seems a bit odd. What do the Chinese authorities want to correct it too?
@AlexMP_1@kmj2190 You've hit the nail on the head there the top 10% in the u.s live like kings. I'm a median earner in the UK. I own a 3 bed house with garden at 33, I get out every weekend for hobbies etc. I have 2 cars, somehow I doubt my life is possible in the u.s.
@TonyWard867811 I'm 33 and I've worked since 17. I hate the welfare state too. But the fault of this laziness is the government allowing it in the first place. It's convenient to blame lazy people but, I guarantee those lazy people would be working if not for the system that exists.
@mjeslfc No worries and if you need your son to be taken to the gents that's absolutely fine we're happy to help. But please don't try to get in the mens yourself or take that boy into the women's.
@ListerLawrence@rorysutherland Regardless of power train vehicles have a range of say 0 - 10% emergency fuel. But with ice cars the range is probably a base of 400 miles so the emergency fuel lasts much longer. I'm sure I heard of a car that managed like 100 miles past empty.
