Look again at why these people no longer have work available to them.
If advancements in technology mean that a machine can do the job more efficiently than a human, then the value of that labour still exists, we just need to legislate a redistribution of it now that human employment is no longer doing it directly.
Once we update our tax codes to ensure that the wealth of automation is shared equitably, the question then becomes “what do you want to do with your free time?”
Anyone got a video of the rest of this set? Searching for it just brings up page after page of genocide apologists getting upset over the warmup.
Counter-proposal: All law enforcement measures and punishments must be assessed and approved by an independent board of psychologists.
We’re not talking about fraud, tax evasion, or burglary where people sit down and plan a crime, making a cost-benefit analysis, and saying “you know what, good idea, but the cross product of likelihood that we get caught and penalty if we do is too high, I’m gonna sit this one out”.
How about you take the extra 180K per person that you’re proposing we flush down the prison system, and direct it into better mental health services, and improved welfare systems, which will actually reduce the instances of such spur-of-the-moment crimes.
I would solve this problem in the opposite way. Install some much lower barriers(eg 2.5m) which make it painfully apparent that you aren’t going to get anything other than a car under it.
A truck driver isn’t going to keep driving if the barrier is clearly at face height.
If attacking a sovereign country is legal, that means your legal system is broken, not that the attack is justified.
You honestly believe that there is a peacefull path left at this point? The system is rigged by design, and you are not going to restore democracy in the courtroom.
Quit playing Martin and start playing Malcolm. Pick up a gun and kill your fascist leaders before they kill all of us.
How exactly does a country getting attacked by two others “make peace”? They were fucking at peace until you attacked them!
Now would be the time for you Americans to get your sacred guns out and eliminate your tyrannical goverment. Please act quickly before the fascist cunts get us all killed.
Fuck this noise.
Outsourcing to private providers should be a short-term stopgap to allow for the necessary investment in public infrastructure. Why would any sensible person commit to a scheme where we utilise a more expensive service as a long term solution?
This whole post is kind of confuaing me because you like everyone else here seems to be the complete opposite to me. If i eat spicy things, it is absolutely fine as far as my gut is concerned, no worries at all. Where is gets me is when I take a shit the next morning, and it comes out twice as spicy as it went in.
This is the same Israel which is currently bombing Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran?
It’s like portraying a person who is actively gunning down civilians with a handgun as "unlikely to kill anyone with a rifle’.
The argument that these guys always make is that “its hard on small businesses”, and they’re not exactly wrong there. If I have to be able to pay two weeks wages to each employee with no productivity in return, that’s a gamble which requires me to inflate my pricing enough to cover the worst odds, or risk running out of operating cash if everyone comes down sick in the same window.
What they seem to overlook every time though, is that rather than cutting entitlements which are in the bigger picture beneficial to both parties, a much simpler solution would be to roll up sick leave into ACC and increase that levy proportionately.
Everyone employer pays the same known rate, and can be more confident in their cashflow, while every employee is guaranteed the leave they need to recover, regardless of how long they have been employed.
Unless I’m missing something, you can do this fairly simply already. I have a post-install script I run on all of my machines which sets up all network shares and runs ‘apt install whole bunch of packages’ to get things into a ready-to-roll state.
If they do no push back, then they are just kicking the can down the road, at great expense to themselves. This is exactly the sort of pushback needed to get bambu to walk back their push towards a walled garden.
With the amount of pain i was in, i didn’t care. Death was 100% on the table as a viable alternative.
I’ve been in this position before. Sent home from hospital twice to “take some paracetamol”. Third time I went in they pumped my stomach because of how much paracetamol I had taken, and finally gave me some actual painkillers.
When you are in debilitating pain, side-effects are not something that you particularly care about.
Get a regular extension cord, find the mid-point, and feed it through the rollerdrum or duct-tape it on. Roll the cord onto the drum such that both ends are being rolled in the same direction. When finished, you will have a male and female connector readily available from the end of the drum, and uncoiling it will give you an equal length of both sides.
Does this mean you can stand on the south side of hadrians wall and wave your titties at the Scots without legal repercussions?
“Metal” is a bit of a stretch. I’d always put them in the “Christian hard rock” genre myself
