@GWHayduke97 @StefFeldman I feel in that scenario all the knowledge work that is currently done in the USA would just be done in data centers abroad that we can’t tax or regulate.

@BBKogan They flattened the curve!

[Tim Sheehy @TimSheehyMT]

First they killed our timber mills, then our mines, then our factories - now data centers. Every good-paying, middle-class employment powerhouse has been systematically murdered by globalist and communist lobbying in America sending those jobs, that industry, and all of its economic impact overseas.

Every politician calling for the end of data centers is also calling for the destruction of the future jobs they create and the end of Netflix, X, YouTube, Instagram, Spotify, Google, Amazon, and every app you actually use. They all run on data centers.

@alz_zyd_ But you are also paying parents of kids who would have been born anyway! So you have to weigh the net benefits of additional kids against the cost of these wasted payments.

[Lobe-Finned Wish @triponthetrail]

@DJBranham I agree but doing so is literally the worst-polling economic policy I can think of!

@theviscountJS @cafreiman Are you sure it wasn’t $16.50?

[Lobe-Finned Wish @triponthetrail]

@theviscountJS @cafreiman Yeah all the tire salesman I know make $200-400k, it’s a great gig!

@troypallotto @esaagar Did you read the article? Young people would pay a mortgage, which would decrease by $22 for every $1 in additional property tax. The mortgage is much much higher because so few homes are on the market, creating a shortage.

@troypallotto @esaagar They have jobs. Same way they already pay for social security and Medicare.

@JMooreP3 @esaagar Pull up the ladder behind you! Fuck you, I got mine.

[Lobe-Finned Wish @triponthetrail]

@SlippySlipnuts @esaagar What’s crazy is people unable to afford to buy a home and start a family, schools closing, police and fire departments defunded, roads and bridges crumbling all because boomers want to watch cable in a big empty house. Selling the future for nothing.

Human history is, essentially, a very long story of violent male coalitions killing other male coalitions, and taking their women, then enforcing righteous dominance.

In Guatemala, for example, the army and paramiliaries killed over 200,000 people (mostly Maya), and forced women into sexual slavery.

But what's remarkable about this particular case is that, with UN support, the poorest, most disadvantaged women took male military elites to court, and secured accountability.

Those of us who live in societies where states, lawyers and feminist activists have built up criminal justice systems that punish male violence and create credible deterrence are - in the great sweep of history - statistical anomalies, and very fortunate.

@berkie1 @kronbergua Looks exactly like Somerville/Medford

[Dion @2024dion]

Pretty unbelievable. The story of the American city is of wrenching change in the urban core every few decades, surrounding by a ring of built-to-completion-and-never-changed suburbia.
