@greg_travis@memeticsisyphus $20k/year in 1989 was the equivalent of 50oz of gold. 50oz of gold today is 200k. That’s the equivalent purchasing power today not 54k
@BitPaine@lakewaramaug@LawrenceLepard My belief is that all US intervention in the Middle East has been a failure that has only fostered hatred towards America. Changing another regime does not undo the bad policies of past decades and will only lead to more resentment and worse outcomes down the road.
@BitPaine@lakewaramaug@LawrenceLepard What assumptions have I made? Israel was only able to carry out offensive strikes due to years of subsidies from US taxpayers. I’m not assuming we will pay for this. We already have. But if you believe it is the US job to police the world should we then turn to N Korea as well?
@BitPaine@lakewaramaug@LawrenceLepard If Israel was able to carry this out on their own I would have no problem with it, unfortunately the bill will inevitably end up at the feet of US taxpayers. If you believe that “American policy” is correct when war is done in Iran should we then begin regime change in N Korea?
@BitPaine@lakewaramaug@LawrenceLepard If you read his book it should be self explanatory why he is against US involvement. War is always inflationary hurting the poor and middle class. And you’re asking for this with a 70 year track record of failure of US involvement in the Middle East
Chris Ballard (Colts GM) on Anthony Richardson:
"When he plays, people defend you a little differently. I think we saw it already, it kind of naturally happens when he's in there, either with his feet or with his arm because of what he's able to do. Look, he's got a lot of work to do and there will be some moments next year where he'll still look like a rookie. It's going to happen. I think his ability to push the ball down the field and create allows for those explosive plays to happen."
