The move would not legalize or decriminalize marijuana, but it would ease barriers to research and boost the bottom lines of legal businesses.

A quick death is a mercy he did not deserve.

That’s why I said mostly.

She’s unharmed enough to give that speech in relatively good spirits, and even smiled a little.

It could’ve been much much worse.

But billionaires need bigger yachts. And more mansions. What’re we to do? Can’t sacrifice the billionaires ultra-mega-yachts.

Glad she’s mostly unharmed. Some headlines made it seem much worse.

Paywall?

If he was poor, he’d have got 50 years.

Gee, ya think?

Why are the Republicans blocking release of the Epstein files?

Does it show that our entire system is a sham built on a foundation of organized crime and fraud? Is it deep in all of our highest 3-letter agencies?

Welp, I suppose that would explain the lack of consequences…

I thought he had porn on in the background. Maybe it was both.

Clearly there was no consequences.

I too don’t watch the show.

But I think we’re all curious on how he’s gonna handle it.

Will he double down and mock trump (highly doubt). Will he do some type of apology whether forced or not to keep his job? Somewhere in between?

Not complicated or difficult to understand.

Poor have more children, because poor are generally more uneducated, especially in 3rd world countries. It is the more informed and educated that are having less children. People that are more informed and educated, generally think long term, and don’t just succumb to immediate gratification. Immediate gratification for someone who is poor, the cheapest thing is sex, and unprotected at that.

Not to mention less educated people are more easily indoctrinated into devout religious beliefs. And the abrahamic religions and it’s offshoots all strongly encourage having children.

It’s really not that complicated.

Uh huh.

This shouldn’t be surprising to anyone. Why would anyone want to bring a kid into this clown show hell? Not to mention who can afford it.

I don’t get it either. I would’ve just off’d myself. Why suffer life in a US torture prison, or death row and execution. Who knows what’s going on in his head.

Oh my fucking god. He’s just a stupid fucking podcaster.

Thanks Obama RFK jr.

Well if they scale it properly and make it realistic it’ll be extremely light due to how hollow it would be.

K.

In other news, Republicans blocked release of the Epstein files.

Where’s the Epstein files and why is trump and Republicans covering it up?

Poor innocent bullet. Is there a GoFundMe for the little guy?

Fair enough, my wording was too simplistic. But I stand by what I said, and try to explain it better.

Generally in the US, you have no choice but to own a car. It’s significantly more difficult if you can’t except for a few outliers like NYC (public transport everywhere but much higher cost of living?).

It’s very difficult not to have a phone and internet, and be able to function in society, finding and keeping a job among other things.

It’s extremely difficult to be homeless or live in your car, not to mention very uncomfortable.

Health insurance premiums whether you need healthcare or not.

Most jobs are tied to a 40hr or more workweek. Some of which don’t pay enough necessitating second jobs. Overwork and exhaustion resulting in limited ability to gain skills to escape.

Energy industry: try living without oil, gas, electricity, etc. it’s impossible.

• transportation
• housing
• energy related, electricity
• phone, internet
• healthcare

My argument, is that these are every day extreme necessities, and they account for the vast majority of our expenses. We don’t have a choice to do without any single one of these (without severe hardship or external support). This is how we’re pseudo-enslaved. All of these things represent billions upon trillions of dollars of profit that mostly go to the elite. All of these above, should be completely socialized/nationalized and have the profit motive removed (as necessities).

Free market capitalism is fine for things like PS5s, BMWs, yachts, mansions, breast implants, and gold plated iPhones. People can work to get luxuries. But having basic necessities met (simple smart phone, clean housing, basic transportation, etc.) should be part of a civilized society. It would mean no more billionaires.

This doesn’t mean people should be able to sit around, do nothing, and get free stuff. Everyone should contribute. Some of the most important jobs like teaching kids, construction, nurses, etc. get shit pay, while billionaires play stock market games.

Honestly I think the concept is simple. There’s money to do all this. It’s just currently going to the wrong people.
