Umberto Eco’s third tenet of fascism: The cult of action for action’s sake.

“Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation.”

Hence the desire for SteamOS.

Motivation on this one was supposedly anti-population increase and anti-IVF. Doesn’t sound like your typical right-wing terrorist.

No, we knew it was fascism then too.

This has got to be in a chintzy tourist town.

It’s SPY with volume. Very standard chart for probably the biggest ETF tracking the S&P.

Hey, it doesn’t need to be right this instant. It could instead be projected revenue next quarter.

All of those are overhead-riddled runarounds that could be avoided entirely by the state simply allocating the tax dollars it’s already collected in a different manner, which ought to be well within its capability to do.

Are you saying that problems could be fixed simply by better allocating existing taxes? That’s what it sounds like. Tax revenue collected from gasoline sales is bound to drop as less and less ICE vehicles are used. Something will have to compensate for that drop.

My eyes started hurting and my phone got very hot.

Doesn’t want to jeopardize her payday after her term ends.

Services can still cost money. Utilities, such as water, cost money but if the government is running them they do not need to produce profit.

Republicans framing the postal service as a failed business venture is purposeful.

What are they planning on doing with that many eggs? I wonder if it’s a customer or maybe a competitor.

The Postal Service is a service.

Expecting Republicans to do the ethical thing while requiring them to oppose their party is foolish. They are party over country.

The landlord’s what?

Only enough people need to stay to make it a viable alternative for many. And even if it’s just the first step in migration away from Twitter/Meta then that’s still at least a step taken.

These rich people, having billions at their command, are set for like twenty lifetimes over.

I get your point and hate to be overly pedantic but even a billionaire with “only” one billion dollars, using the most conservative investment strategy would literally have enough money for 200 people to earn $200,000/year forever.
