He’ll just announce new tariffs.


You could sneak onto the island somehow, that shouldn’t be much of a problem.
But integrating with their society? They will out you in literally seconds, the first time you spoke. If they didn’t recognize you as an outsider on sight, they’d recognize from your voice, accent, speech, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, syntax, etc. that you were a phony before you finished your first sentence.


There is no Free Market, that’s just a myth they tell us to allow them to do whatever they want. They don’t really want a true Free Market because it leads to Luigis.


The only problem with his prediction is that as the 10% of human work increases, most of the increased work will also be done by AI, so all humans are doing is getting all the work breaking rocks, as AI handles any interesting stuff that pops up.


Well, that’s a relief. I’d rather have AI making decisions than this putz, and I hate AI.


Valid.


Yeah, MAGA likes to scream about all the problems with their health care in Canada or England, but threaten to take it away, and those countries all go nuts.
It’s unrealistic to expect perfection, but even their imperfect systems are miles ahead of the immoral predatory system we have.


I hear you, that all makes sense, and I’ve been hearing it my entire life. When I was young, Social Security was supposed to end before the 21st Century, and yet, here we are.
I believe they’ve just been softening us up to accept it when they finally figure out some mechanism to kill it, and they can say “Well, we always said it couldn’t last,” and we’ll say, “Yeah, it was good while it lasted.”


He looks pretty dinosaury to me.


Dude, I’m sitting next to you at the meeting.


My Dad had dementia, and he went through that stage, and while he was pretty good most of the time, we couldn’t let him drive the car. Biden looked and acted exactly like that. He was definitely on the path.


Also valid. When the time comes, we’ll have that discussion in earnest. Sociopathic Oligarchs will not be consulted.


Valid. I’m hoping some decent country takes care of business.


Valid perspective, the main point being that it is imperative that we reconfigure our country so that neither society, nor the government serve the needs of the wealthy, the wealthy serve the needs of government and society. The wealthy have no needs, they are wealthy.
They need to learn that they keep their money at the pleasure of the Citizens, and if they step out of line, or even hint at trouble, the Board of Directors goes to prison, and their entire net worth is confiscated. Do that to a few wealthy families, make them destitute, and have to send their kids to {gasp!} public school, and they’ll learn real quick who they work for.


I’ve thought of that, but then we miss out on the opportunity to piss them off every time we raise it, and that’s so much fun.
I love when rich people start screaming that they don’t have enough money, and the poor get all the breaks, and it isn’t fair. Hilarious.


Dude, I’m not asking you to save US from him, I’m asking you to save YOU from him. He’s now inflicting damage on YOUR country, too. I’m sure of that, and I don’t even know where you live, but wherever it is, he’s hurting you somehow.


They need a skin bag to put all that stuff in, and cover it with some pretty scales or feathers or something.
It looks like a refrigerator on wheels, and I’ll bet the ice maker doesn’t work.
