Yeah I just found this out and sure enough it works.
Just need to start doing away with fuel subsidies
Yep all those countless hours of travel, gallons of gas, car repairs, transit fares, etc we’ve been covering out of pocket our whole working lives has been a free subsidy to commercial real estate companies.
Honestly if you got over the horror of all the murdering it'd probably be pretty good for the species/society to send everyone to to glue factory around 65. At least all the politicians anyway.
Yeah it was crazy what went wrong in this thing in the space of a few years before we got rid of it... Just off the top of my head:
- Pulled too close to one of those parking dividers and the bumper barely scuffed up onto it. All the plastic attachment clips in the front bumper snapped and the bumper sagged a couple inches from there out. They quoted me something like $500 to replace some plastic clips.
- Fuel injectors sprayed gas onto the engine block causing smoke to come out from under the hood
- Recall on the turn signals
- Fabric in the roof of the car bubbled up and sagged down
- Labels on the center console (radio/climate control/etc) started peeling off
- Lid of the center console broke
- Glove compartment door broke
- Stereo broke
- Cupholders broke
- Driver side door speaker went
There was some other stuff too but it's been a while now. My last car was an Accord that I had for many years and that thing was rock solid. I still miss it but had to sell it when I moved out of the country.
I really liked how the car drove but after owning a 2001 Jetta I'd probably never buy another VW. That car had the worst quality control of any car I've ever seen. It was insane how much stuff broke in that car. I'll stick with Japanese cars if I was in the market for one.
Completely agree and we need to figure out a way to decouple population growth from keeping the economy afloat. It feels like we're approaching the inevitable collapse of the infinite growth pyramid scheme. This isn't rational and was always destined to fail.
Perfect time to send 100s of thousands of men in the prime of their lives to die in some pointless war.
Yeah there's no way these programs are coming anywhere near the cost of having kids. Childcare alone is insanely expensive these days.
It's not really the money, these places just seem like a terrible waste of . And if you're getting the lower calorie healthier option on these menus the food is just totally depressing. Always something like "here's a piece of lemon, some leaves, and a skinless chicken breast." I'm not paying someone to prepare that for me.
