  • And everyone is wondering why more people don't want to have children.

  • A billionaire is the equivalent of a person sitting in a cafeteria who bought every piece of food in the restaurant kitchen and doesn't want to share any of it with the thousand people sitting around him even though he'll never be able to eat all the food they bought.

    Owning and controlling so much wealth that you'll never be able to enjoy everything you have in a lifetime isn't a success or a sign of intelligence .... it's a mental illness. Especially when all that wealth and control could mean the life or death of thousands or millions of people everywhere.

  • Dick Cheney saving the trees .... by planting them in your face

  • Knuckle hair it is

  • Next week Obama will be escalating his concerns by slapping the podium while talking.

  • I think you have typo in you headline

    Danielle Smith and Postmedia ARE on Team Trump

    both of them are actively financed and supported by US interests .... Smith has plenty of US business interests and Postmedia is American owned

  • Anyone?

  • Someone did unplug it a few decades ago ........ no one has bothered to plug it in again .... I think they set fire to the plug to make sure no one plugs it in again ... ever

  • Any military option automatically removes any economic benefits that could have been possible in peace time. As soon as any conflict appears, everyone will spend more money on fighting, defending that in saving or creating profit. No matter who may "win", everyone will lose and it would take decades to recover from it.

  • So you're saying I should live at the equator

  • Every time stuff like this happens .... it doesn't change how people feel about Turnip

    Every time stuff like this happens ... I think about how stupid the American people are. They have a clown for a leader, running the country like a circus for sale and they put up with it every time.

  • Aye

  • ... and all it cost was one life

    Meanwhile, the health industry is doing their best to protect what's there while costing the lives of thousands even millions of people to an early death or a terrible life of misery.

  • This is like asking tobacco farmers what their thoughts are on smoking.

  • That's the problem .... if you are damned if you stay and damned if you leave .... everyone starts weighing the options of either situation

    The choices for staying become ... stay and beholden to federal government that ties your hands, manipulates your economy and uses you for their benefit while never allowing you to do what your people want for themselves

    or ... secede and fight a political, economic and possibly even a military conflict to decide your own future

    either options is terrible in the long run (if things continue as they are) but staying means things stay indefinitely terrible while seceding gives a higher chance of political autonomy.

  • This is like saying the local drug dealer is now selling drugs in broad daylight at the local school parking lot

    They always sold drugs, they just did in secretly in the past .... now no one cares or has the power to stop them, so they'll doing it out in the open now.

    The US has been an undemocratic hell hole for decades ... they used to hide under a well marketed mask of democracy ... now no one cares or has the power to stop their run away government which is doing whatever they want apologetically

  • This is like saying a gambler at a casino lost $10,000

    That's a lot of money to you and me

    That means nothing to a rich man with millions.

    Sure they lost billions .... but they still have billions more.

    They want the US to fracture and break because they'll be able to buy the remnants for nothing to start their own kingdoms.

  • If the union doesn't provide any benefits and only costs money and prevents your state from functioning as well as it could and the union only makes solutions harder to solve ...... why stay in the union?

    States stay together because of mutual benefit, not because of a document or promises.

    And you could force a state to stay in a union by force but the cost of doing that far outweighs the benefits of a peaceful union.

  • The funniest things I've seen since the last Naked Gun movie with Leslie Neilson was everyday American politics.

  • lol ..... Comrade Player 3 joins the game and organizes all the pawns and colours them red.

  • Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    It's no longer easy to play April Fool's jokes on Americans because their reality is so chaotic that it's no longer easy to tell what is real, funny, fake or sad.

    One of the terrible things about having a close friend or relative die is that it is a subtle reminder that you've moved up in the line towards the end.
