I tried to explain to her that every dollar spent is a dollar not invested in Tesla and Elons an alien building self flying cars

That’s great, where are we going to dinner later?
Jeff Bezos reveals why compromise is one of the worst ways to resolve a disagreement
"An example of a really bad way of coming to agreement is compromise. If I say the ceiling is 11 feet and you say 12 feet, we say let's call it 11 and a half. That's compromise"
"The advantage of compromise is it's low energy. But it doesn't lead to truth"
"Another really bad resolution mechanism is who's more stubborn. Two executives disagree, they have a war of attrition, and whichever one gets exhausted first capitulates. You haven't arrived at truth, and this is very demoralizing"
"Escalation is better than a war of attrition. Escalate to your boss and say, we can't agree, we like each other, we're respectful, but we strongly disagree, we need you to make a decision"
"Exhausting the other person is not truth seeking. Compromise is not truth seeking"
This is who we are up against.
These retards can't understand basic concepts. Her stupid smug face and neck say it all.
Of course more immigration means less housing availability, it's common sense you clown.
The idea that some regions are struggling today primarily because they were colonized doesn’t fully hold up.
Many places that were colonized have gone on to become highly prosperous, suggesting that colonization alone doesn’t determine a country’s long-term outcome
Ethiopia was never colonized.
For much of its history, it was one of the poorest countries on the continent.
Meanwhile, Vietnam was colonized by the French, devastated by decades of war, and is now on its way to serious economic prosperity.
If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor, Ethiopia should be rich and Vietnam should be broke. Neither is true.
Can we please retire this excuse?
