Covid gave the whole world a chance to try something different. The only changes I’m aware of from that were regressions.

Are you saying that future people will study us for what NOT to do?

Nation Builder was my thought.

Save Ukraine!

Why did you use a picture from 2019? That’s, like, 2 or 3 strokes ago, and a reversal of dementia?

“Hard questions.” Bull shit. The “question” is to make great profit selling to the most populous country with proper safe guards. Or to make astronomical profits by selling a knowingly tainted product that kills people.

In the US, isn’t that what the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) electrical designation is? A separate entity that certifies?

I think it is separate from the government.

Unlike Energy Star, which is part of the US government’s EPA, and thus it was, or was threatened with, reduced in capacity by Trump.

fl_numerator = 1

fl_denominator = 3

And division is a “stretch goal” once we get funding.

You’re changing the subject.

Wait, you’re taking something Trump said as the truth?

Taxes do not pay for the USPS. The USPS is fully funded by itself.

Oh darn!

Hershey’s has had many reasons to be boycotted over the decades. I’m not aware of any of those reasons being corrected by the company.

I am completely against what Israel is doing to Palestine and against the colonization and genocide being done.

This instance of Hershey’s doing business in Israel is a very weak reason to boycott. There are many other obvious reasons to boycott Hershey’s.

This is true.

This is the basis for taxing high sugar convenience food. It was done for cigarettes, and today, consumers overwhelmingly see it as a good program. (Of course tobacco companies lobbied hard against it)

Should there be a line on which products governments deincentivise? High sugar convenience foods have their purpose, but does it outweigh increasing obesity? Should we instead subsidize healthy foods? Or both together?

Racist Americans are getting their appetite whet seeing brown people getting hurt, and are on the edge of their seat waiting to see Black people get hurt.

Yay. Keep it going. More states and higher income.

Or, you know, the ultra, ultra rich could pay more taxes. That’s the trade off.

The big, well reported protests were the result of decades, nay centuries, of protests.

Sit-in protests were common.

Rosa Parks was, by far, not the first Black person to be arrested for keeping her seat.

Hundreds of thousands of workers died or were hurt in preventable dangerous workplaces and labor protests.

It is hard and costly to go against the government.

Racists are so bad they won’t even allow Black people to volunteer to defend the America.

Racists are so bad and afraid of brown people that white America racists are removing child labor laws to prefer to have their own white children working in fast food instead of in school learning just so that they don’t see a brown adult.

First the racists said that Black people were born for physical labor. Then the racists said that Black people were not good enough to do physical labor to defend the country. Racist people are horrible.
