Wow. That’s a lot of daft nonsense right there. I understand complaints about it being a cash grab but I wasn’t prepared for the “that’s how we’ve always done it”, and “elite athletes don’t need water…or rest…or health protocols…or anything else regular humans might want or need” arguments. 🙄

We ignore inequality, abuses of power, and rampant corruption at our peril. Under Modi, India is embracing authoritarianism, sectarianism, and militarism. The desire for commerce cannot lead to the acceptance of abuse.

This is how Hitler gained & held power. The entire system was built for the wealthy, by the wealthy. To keep them in power & to grow their wealth. The only enemy extreme wealth & capital has ever had is the people. Democratic socialism is the only answer. Eliminate parasitic wealth & people thrive.

Trump will brag that any MOU he signs with Iran will include a line from Iran promising never to builds nukes. Yet that was also in the JCPOA, which said: “Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapon.” Trump tore up the JCPOA & caused a war.

"Socialists have a remarkable lack of interest in how wealth is created.
As far as they know, wealth just exists somehow, and the only interesting question is how to redistribute it."

You don't have to love Elon Musk to recognize what this headline says about us.
A country that spends more time criticizing wealth creation than encouraging it sends a clear message to builders: your success is tolerated, not celebrated.
Canada should be the best place in the world to build ambitious companies. Headlines like this make us look like we're not quite ready for that.Kaz Nejatian O

Be sure to use Al when making your next, I don't know, meal plan, for example. Definitely do not call your friend who loves to cook and ask her for her favorite recipes or tips or ways to save time making meals, because you will end
up talking for longer than you had hoped, hearing, perhaps, about her father's cancer diagnosis or how lonely she's been or even what she's planted in her spring garden and then lost with the early frost.

Federal debt is nothing like credit card debt. You weaken your credibility with statements like this. Also, investing with debt is a simple matter of the difference between the cost of borrowing and the investment return. In one way or another, we all use debt to enable investment.

Speaking of Bari Weiss, she put a target on the back of the poet and professor Refaat Alareer in Gaza and he was assassinated by the IDF less than two months later. He, his brother, his sister, and four of his nephews were killed in a surgical strike.
Refaat in Gaz... * • 10/30/23
If I get killed by Israeli bombs or my family is harmed, I blame Bari Weiss @bariweiss and her likes.
Many maniacal Israeli soldiers already bombing Gaza take these lies and smears seriously and they act upon them.

This is the Achilles heal of the US system of govt: Congress should be driving govt, not just checking it. Parliaments drive the act of governing in Canada, the UK, Australia etc…. In the US, POTUS drives govt, and congress (if they’re doing their job) acts as a check on his power. That’s insane!
