Did you know that most of China's debt is held domestically?

I mean so does the United States thanks to the 13th amendment but we don't have anywhere near the same infrastructure to show for it

Overproduction of commodities is certainly a problem for capitalists. But the workers get to enjoy a lower cost of living. Like I would much prefer we built ghost cities (Chengdu was derided as a ghost city at one point) than have a decades long housing crisis with no signs of improving unless we deport millions of people.

Call it butt sex and then we can also claim this was the gay agenda we kept hearing about.

So I guess you'd say we should change nothing and ignore the wildly eroding support and the poll numbers showing the democratic party has just 28% favorability?

My brother in Christ, you're not talking to a liberal here.

He has jumped onto the "abundance" strategy with his plan to address the housing crisis: cut out "special interests" like unions and environmentalists from power. If your project is affordable housing then your union rate is no longer accepted. So yes, his policy direction is about making the bargaining table smaller by kicking out some of the middle class.

Not industrial run off but human waste. So that way we can have a closed loop for bioaccumulation, which there is no demand for.

Listen to yourself. You're saying the Democrats are our only hope yet they also don't listen.

Democrats do listen, but only to those with power. Before anything can change for the better we need power for ourselves.

Obamacare was always a rhetorical device to prove how unserious the GOP is at governing.

There's a nonzero chance the CEO was a client of Epstein and the same goes for members in the board.

I think in order to be a good psychiatrist you need to understand what your patient is "babbling" about. But you also need to be able to challenge their understanding and conclusions about the world so they engage with the problem in a healthy manner. Like if the guy is worried how AI is making the internet and world more dead then maybe don't go to the AI to be understood.
