The real rich (don’t have to work)

The rich (earn lots of money, have enough assets to coast of needed)

The poor (anyone who already is, or would end up on the street if they stopped working for a couple years.)

I almost guarantee that those 530,000 people with numbers just moved out of province and never bothered to tell the AB government because why would they?

Plenty of them here in BC.

I understand her statement to mean that they should have to suffer in jail for a long time. How is that violent?

Insert first time meme here.

… What?

Did you forget your /s tag

Blame the democrats

Free speech? Nope. Only for republicans

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Kirk is a common enemy of a group of people too, the ones who are cheering.

bin Laden had supporters too.

I’m confused as to why you think those things are incompatible.

We’ve been celebrating the deaths of people for a very long time, including much cheering when bad people die.

Pogs should come back

It means you should move on

Bouncy balls are already reasonably efficient. If you want them to be more dangerous, you just get ones that weigh more.

I already stated what I believe to be moral in this situation, and how I arrived at that conclusion.

That’s only one variation of moral relativism. It is, as most things in ethics are, not black and white.

Busses

Your question didn’t require an answer, since it answered itself.

I literally have multiple copies of Wikipedia offline. Including one on a USB stick.

I don’t think it would ever be possible to delete all records of history short of blowing up the entire planet at which point its quite moot.

“universally appalling” despite it literally having supporters arguing over it for over a thousand years…

Just because your class of idealist youth didn’t like it doesn’t make it universally appalling.

This is a really important take that not enough people understand.

Very few people are asking for universal socialism. Capitalism works fine for some industries, Socialism works great for some industries. The government needs to figure out which ones are which, and implement rules around that.

The big one right now that people are just starting to figure out is that capitalism sucks at real estate. The free market failures there are significant and causing a lot of problems.

IMO land should be strictly owned by the government, and only rented to citizens. This should be the primary source of tax revenue for a country, not income taxes. Use more land, pay more taxes. Use less land, pay less taxes. Land taxes also benefit from being the only thing you can never hide, because you can’t put it under a table or move it offshore.
