This is what they seem to never understand:
They fixed the price of bread for years. Before getting caught, if people had asked them, “are you fixing the price of bread?”, they would have said No, and probably have acted insulted that they were even asked.
So now, if we ask them if they’re fixing any other prices, they’ll say No, and act insulted.
After last time, why should we believe anything they say at any point?
One of the busiest highways in the world, to get one of the longest tunnels in the world underneath it?
This will cost a hundred billion at least, and it won’t solve congestion.

I remember in the 80’s when this Ad was everywhere, on billboards and bus benches and magazines and newspapers. Pretty sure it won some awards.
The TV commercial version was the same woman smiling, just a slow zoom in towards her smiling face, but there was this quiet static in the background with eerie footsteps coming closer for about 15 seconds before the audio dropped to total silence for a few seconds, then a narrator (James Earl Jones-style) said the motto, and the woman said the bit about the free fries, followed by another 5 seconds of silence while she kept smiling; but the smile was cracking, fading, her face muscles unable or unwilling to hold the pose until they suddenly dropped into a look of terror right as the commercial ended.

saying competition and fear are incentives to improve service
Fear? Seriously? A public health care service that’s been under-funded by design will “improve service” out of fear? These politicians have no morals.
Women are not filtered to be able and I am a very much and have been in touch and I am a very nice dream home tonight at least
Indeed. Workers exist in order to work. Why would workers want to strike, when instead they could be working? Good thing the government is stepping in to keep them in their place. /s
Mmm, the neon green lines really sell the putrification.
I’ll place your Lemmy Cesium award in a safe place, where it will not be exposed to water
Oh snap, super my bad then
No, I’m just shit-posting, my bad
Those two kids look like they’re related. They may also be neighborhood troublemakers, from the look of that baseball bat the one is holding.
Also, that’s a weird looking bush in the background, pretty sure that’s either AI or UI
On the top, a bright, clear sunny day, a few picturesque clouds in the sky.
At the bottom, a river, once clean, where corporate logos such as Google and Microsoft sit, partially submerged, stains spreading into the waters around them.
In the middle, a bridge: well constructed across and overtop the river, across which various Fediverse logos are crossing
I dunno, I’m not a graphic designer
Sounds oddly familiar… But I can’t place it, so the free market dictates that this must be a good idea.
