So a bit more info on this ... if you look up the average of the demographic that tries to game a system it usually sits somewhere between 2-5%. Unfortunately the powers that be have decided that even tho 95-98% of people follow the rules, everyone has to be vetted (and often denied) so the 'bad' ones can be filtered out.

Untold b/trillions are spent doing this, far surpassing what it would cost to just have basic vetting where people in need would be able to access funds/services within 30 days.

Edit to add -- This is ONLY good for individuals. All corporate entities should be held to a minimum wait of 6 months to be completely vetted.

Yup. There is little difference in Canada (except for universal healthcare, which is decimated across the board rn).

That does not mean they work under military rules. They are under UN control, and the UN is a peacekeeping force. It is not a nation state military force.

The UN isn't a military organization. It is a peacekeeping org and as such is not bound by the same operational rules as an army would be.

Honestly, if they were that far ahead they wouldn't be going nuts with the voter removal bullshit.

The orange asshole is scared he may not win, so is hedging his bets by having Black, Brown, unhoused and poor people removed (this list is who often doesn't have so-called 'proper ID').

Because it's their own life at stake and they should always have the choice.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Israel.

Please stay on topic.

But him knowing that and continuing to fight until his last breath is fucking amazing.

I'm pretty sure I couldn't do the same.

I wonder if this is a warning shot over the IS militants' bow to warn them off attacking Israel?

I always appreciate it when people screenshot tables with no attribution. 🙄

Dr of what? Sealioning?

Iirc the FAA faced budget cuts so let Boeing police themselves, which is dumb at best.

But whoever decided that the FAA (and every other American regulatory agency) should have their budget cut is at fault here.

Opposition Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, whose party is ahead in national polls by a wide margin, does not support the legislation.

Canada needs to be reminded of this come next election.

I get that there are verifiable threats here, but giving that piece of shit military vehicles and air transport -- which he would point to as his 'right' as President-elect -- would almost kill any chance of him losing the election.

America is FUBAR'd. :/

Abortion is healthcare for women tho.

Pretty shitty actually, especially when politicians don't think we have the maturity and competency to manage our own heath care.

How do you feel about Competency and Maturity?

Tbf listeria doesn't develop in the farming portion of the food chain. It come from bits of meat starting to rot in the machines used to grind the meat up. Companies cutting back on cleaning staff and mandated machine cleaning procedures (ie: tearing the machine down at set intervals) is where the problem starts.
