El gobierno alemĂĄn dice que aunque te mueras de calor no pongas el aire acondicionado porque contamina.
Por contextualizar, un yate contamina mĂĄs en UN DĂA que una persona con el aire acondicionado puesto durante toda su vida.
El cambio climĂĄtico es lucha de clases.
Essentially every argument against rent control.
-It reduces new builds
-it prevents mobility
- it increases prices over time
Can be solved by having a public builder building social housing alongside the rent control.
Stop looking at every problem from a free market POV
so it obviously canât be this easy, but why donât the guys who want their wives to have sex with them just give their wife a really good full body massage? i think like 80% of women would be reasonably receptive to sex after this.
So many young people in the west are depressed about climate change because they arenât being told that China is creating more new renewable energy than the rest of the world combined.
We have to learn how to cooperate if we want to save the planet.
We need to bring back intellectual elitism. Sorry, but a virologist will always know more about vaccines than a yoga mommy blogger with a ChatGPT Plus subscription.
In regards to the housing situation being discussed in BC. I keep seeing this false dichotomy of either we have to buy these condos from private developers, or let the market bottom out.
Thereâs a third option.
BUILD PUBLIC HOUSING!
And create publicly held rental stock.
yâall have no respect for the ppl who make your life easier. the person making your morning coffee deserves a livable wage. the person stocking the groceries you buy deserves a livable wage. the person cleaning the restrooms in the office you work at deserves a livable wage.
Gotta love how communists across the world independently keep deciding to depict Marx and Engels as lovers. The power of old man yaoi transcends time and space.
Liberals have violated workersâ Charter right to strike, refused to take action on unpaid work in the airline sector & are scheming behind closed doors to weaken unionsâ collective bargaining position. Meanwhile, unemployment is high and workers are struggling to make ends meet.
It was billed Build Canada Strong - not Bailout Developer Donors.
It appears free market principles only work one way: private profits, public losses.
This condo bailout wonât create a single new unit of affordable housing.
Itâs time to create real non-market housing
We should create a law in Canada that states if your a developer, and letâs say you develop a condo complex,
You have 5 years from point of completion to sell those condos or the government gets to turn them into social housing.
Much better than being a buyer of last resort
Hereâs just one of the unprecedented measures the Liberals pushed through at the end of this session:
Cabinet ministers will now be allowed to authorize the use of banned pesticides in the name of ânational economic security.â
Even if theyâve been deemed unsafe for human health.
Debate was shut down, and scientists, public health and environmental experts were not allowed to testify before the bill was passed.
Another gift to powerful corporations at the expense of Canadians.
Legislation by lobbyists.

Not only will this have serious negative health impacts (buying organic isnât just a fad anymore)
Itâs also going to result in Canadian grown food products being banned in other countries.
Probably resulting in more over reliance in trade with the USA.
Brilliant all around.
An attack by Trump + Netanyahu that violates international law on a fabricated pretext, killed innocent civilians & children, destroyed world heritage sites, spiked prices for consumers and sparked attacks on innocent neighbouring countries, is absolutely not âworth itâ.
