REALLY IMPORTANT: “But Norway says it isn’t hoping to simply replace combustion engines with electric counterparts 1:1 but motivate people to get out of their private vehicles & walk, cycle, & take public transport” @ElectrekCo

This is what it looks like when a train goes at 600 km/h in 🇯🇵.
At this speed the train could easily compete with flights in Europe:
Paris - Berlin 1½ hr
Madrid - Barcelona 1 hr
Vienna - Prague ½hr
Copenhagen - Hamburg ½hr

“This is Jesse, he is a drifter who lives near the bridge in my area. He owns nothing but a bike, a bird and a bag of about 10 items!

Yesterday, while I was riding my bike down around the beach – which is about 3 miles from my house – I got a flat tire. I had no choice but to turn around and wheel my bike the long walk home.

A few people rode past and didn’t really pay me any attention and I didn’t expect them too, but as I started walking, headphones in my ears, I noticed the homeless guy from under the bridge saying something to me.

At first I thought he was going to ask me for something so I popped my headphones out and asked him what he wanted? He then replied “I don’t want anything- but I’ve got a new tube in my bag and you can have it if ya want!”

Shocked at first I said no thanks but he insisted. So I walked over to his little clearing where he had his things and his pet bird sat in a busted cage.

He opened up his empty bag and gave me the tube (which was one of the very few things he had) helped me change the tire, even pumped it up! I asked him how I could pay him back and he said to me “don’t worry about it, this is what it’s all about!”

The enormity of his situation and the fact that he went out of his way to help me was so humbling, I mean this guy was willing to give me his stuff and didn’t want anything in return. To you and I, a bike tube would probably not mean much but to a guy with so little this item must hold enormous value!

I could go on and on about how selfless this guy was to give me, a total stranger, clearly in a much better position than him some of his possessions, while people like us are so selfishly attached to all our useless crap.

Anyway I just wanted to show you a pic of Jesse with his new Versace lenses, some fresh Sneakers, a full belly and a cold beer… Felt good to do something for him. I also went up to our local fast food chain and got him a couple weeks worth of food and some seed for his bird…

Man he was ecstatic even had tears in his eyes and couldn’t thank me enough, but amidst me sitting there proud of my good deed, and him singing me praises, I suddenly felt pretty bad because the truth is if he didn’t go out of his way to help me, I wouldn’t of done anything for him.

I ride past this guy all the time and never even think twice!

Really knocked me off my high horse!

Even tho we sit around with all our materialistic needs and pass judgment, this dude has something that none of us can buy!
I guess what I’m trying to say is thanks for the lesson in humanity champ!”

Even though the United States has an economy 7x larger than France, Amtrak runs 300 trains daily compared to TGV that runs 14,000. That’s 47x more train service.

Polls show most workers in the United States don’t feel they will ever retire

In China the average retirement age is 54

People think the United States is more free from China but how free are you if you don’t have the freedom to retire?

The average rent in China is $400-$500, around 70% lower than ours. Are you really free if you can’t afford to live in most of the country?

The United States also locks up 1/4 of the world prison population despite having over 3x less people than China

Meanwhile so many people think the United States is the lane of the free compared to China. This is why I say the United States is the most propagandized country in the world

So the Maui wildfires are now right up in the ranks of the deadliest fires in US history. Guess what the cause is?

Come on.... Just take a guess!!

THAT'S RIGHT!!!

"Scientists predict that the conditions that lead to massive, deadly wildfires like those in Maui will become more common as climate change worsens"

NOW... With that said, listen to THIS👇🏽local tell what he saw. His name is Fish and he's a local in Lahaina which was the worst hit.

👉🏽Police blocked people from evacuating Lahaina?😡

Locals are saying this appeared intentional and authorities acted in ways that did not make any sense to anyone that witnessed it. Also, there are reports of people found dead in their cars. After you watch this you will see why that's important.

I'd say take anything the MSM says with a grain of salt and wait and see what ACTUALLY caused this. Usually takes a month or 2 after the official BULLSHIT is reported before they sneak the real cause in when nobody is looking.

Locals are saying this is a "land grab" and NOT a natural disaster.

Worth looking into...

Of course, the vultures are out in full force!

Wealthy real estate LEACHES are harassing the landowners who have lost everything in the wildfire in Maui.

I hope they are treated by the media and/or courts in the coming weeks/months with *exactly* the same amount of dignity, respect, and kindness that they show service industry workers when they go out 😇

The Have-Nots vs the Have-Yachts.

Teachers can write off only $300 of school supplies for their classrooms on their taxes.

CEOs can write off the full cost of their yachts.

This is what it looks like when billionaires pay millionaires to write laws to benefit billionaires.
