trailing9,

They are not arguing that everything is convenient.

A valid feeling as long as they make little.

Do you know PPP? You make little if you cannot resolve your psychological problems while they can rise a family.

If they earn more than their neighbors and can send their children to good schools, everybody wins.

A valid problem.

If it is that dire then the reality is that if you don’t call, the children will die. But it’s not awkward because you will never know if you don’t use the service.

The third world only earns more if we buy services back.

If you feel bad that the family starves you can still pay more. But people understand PPP. Your life will be worse than theirs. You paid for chips while they had a real meal.

trailing9,

Thanks for the references.

trailing9,

will always snap back to two major parties

So make at least one of them a party with reasonable policies

It is if you care about the actual tangible effects

Of course people care. That’s the lock-in.

trailing9,

But you have a new party with better politics. Otherwise you argue that Democrats and Republicans already represent exactly the will of the population.

trailing9,

To me this means that something has to change so that it is enough.

trailing9,

Yes, create the voting base.

If democrats move right, they take votes from Republicans and make it easier for third party to win.

trailing9,

No you shut up. Stop missing unconditional love and self-acceptance!

trailing9,

Right, they are a monopoly until there is competition. That’s OK. You tax them higher until it becomes profitable for a competitor. That’s not ‘out of business’, just high enough.

But you can also accept the monopoly if the offer is transparent and good enough.

The colluding is a problem. It is the problem. It’s unavoidable. In every system there is corruption. This cannot be solved but has to be dealt with case by case.

trailing9,

The 4:1 upvote relation between music and silence, that’s insightful.

trailing9,

How can the left not link immigration with the reserve army of labor?

The right thinks that limiting immigration removes the surplus. The left knows that there will always be a surplus but they attack the right on refusing immigration instead of first explaining the reason for the surplus.

trailing9,

Can we use Lemmy to figure out what should be done, push for that change, and bring plastic straws back?
