To the point at least. The impression I always got was that it was meant to imply you’d have money by then and not want to pay taxes.
Also zeppo@sh.itjust.works. Not a lot of Zeppos out here.

The people who told me that were 100% boomers. There’s that idiotic saying “if you’re not liberal* when you’re 20, you have no heart. If you’re not conservative when you’re 40 you have no brains” ok boomer.
Note this is using the US meaning of liberal, not to mean “capitalist”.
I assumed this was V8. Well… nothing to report here.
interesting how it has the tilt shift look.
Ikea does have those semi-private feeling little nooks… I’ve thought about taking a nap in one before. I can only imagine the temptation Vince feels seeing that fresh upholstery.
What’s unclear about “I will fucking murder them.”?
Republicans also have a major habit of voting against things that would help their constituents, then taking credit after it passes anyway. It’s really puzzling what the fuck is wrong with these people.
Visiting Japan and he eats McDonald’s…. what a fucking heathen. He is known for liking well done steaks with ketchup too, though.
That’s understood, and what is your practical solution for that? Sweeping political and economic revolution is unlikely to come to the US anytime soon. In the meantime, we have one party that denies that climate change exists at all and one party that acknowledges it is real. Also, this is the usual “I’m so leftist” thing where you spent several paragraphs criticizing the Democratic party without saying a single thing about the horror of Republicans.
Oh. I thought it was supposed to be about how hard it would be to do stuff while carrying around spoons in your hands all day.
Before the musk acquisition I had something like 8,000 people blocked… mostly the inane shit like “Patriot Christian Dog Mom” or incredible douchebags like “dc_draino”.
I just can’t really parse this considering that Republicans want to do things like eliminate the entire EPA and tried 60 times just in the past several years to cancel health care for people like me. Dems would get a hell of a lot more done if Republicans didn’t reflexively block anything at all they try to do.
The only person who can stop WW3 and also “save the country”, which according to him is a smoking husk.
He really is a remarkably stupid person.
still love how someone referred to him as “that Skeletor looking motherfucker”
I mean, we’ve been saying this to people of this viewpoint on Lemmy all year and so far, not one I’ve seen has ever said “oh, you have a point”.
Seems like an overly generous interpretation. They want to change this because insurance companies never wanted it, since they don’t want to have to actually pay money out for people who are sick.
It’s worth noting too that while the article says one idea is of course “todays healthy could be tomorrow’s sick”, a more persuasive point may be that todays sick could be tomorrow’s healthy. Or, even imagine, preventative care. Personally I was self employed in my 20s and 30s and thought it was okay to have no health insurance because I was young and healthy. Self employment is about the worst situation for US health insurance. Turns out I wasn’t healthy. The progression of what was going on with me ended up destroying my productivity. From a societal, financial view, being shut out of medical care was a net loss for everyone - if I’d had access to a relatively small and cheap amount of preventative care, I would have ended up contributing far more in economic activity and taxes over my lifetime, versus now where I consume more in healthcare than I would have otherwise as well.
It’s a greentext. The default is to assume it’s BS.
Hell yeah I love posting stuff like this on Lemmy in support of communism!
The problem in flint wasn’t that the water source was polluted, but rather that it was more acidic than the previous water supply. That wreaked havoc on the aging lead pipes in the community.
