Correct, they can print all the money they want, it’s fake tied to nothing.

TACO will just say some stupid thing to justify it and it will continue. It has been shown that there are no checks and balances that can be or willing to be put in place.

I didn’t read the article but again it’s another reminder that the mainstream news isn’t going to really report in anything.

ICE budget over by a billion, yeah no shit did you think all these cosplayers were already in the payroll and just hanging out at their bases looking at all the gear they have.

I am always amazed at how many people do not understand this. Phone companies right before they started becoming almost “essential”, power companies, water/sanitation companies, healthcare “you know excluding eyes and teeth because they have nothing to do with healthcare” that they’re pushing to privatize, etc etc. So why does anyone think that privatizing Canada Post will be any different, and sure as shit it will be some stupid Tech company that will just have another means to amass your information to sell.

Now don’t get me wrong, there needs to be a change at Canada Post (and the CBC but that’s another topic), but privatization is not the answer, and neither is the current way it’s going. The person who mentioned how Ireland has adapted their postal service makes a valid point and it should be looked at.

Canadians will not be better served by privatization but some greedy asshole billionaire will, unless it gets bought by the employees.

Yes government organizations are rife with inefficiencies but it would be better to attempt to solve those problems.

I do not get a lot of useful mail from Canada Post, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a valuable service for Canadians. There just needs to be less junk mail what a complete waste of resources, and why the hell do companies have the right to force their trash on me. Bet that gets better with privization /s

Came here to say the exact same thing.

It doesn’t matter if it is true or not (not just this topic) but if you repeat the lie enough and gaslight the public it becomes true, and if it doesn’t so what, what are you going to do about it.

NOTHING that is what they are counting on.

Keep up the protests, the No Kings protest was huge even if MSM is downplaying it.

Or “Might as well do EVIL”, what is anybody going to do about it, maybe make some noise but we just pay off TACO and we good.

She gets that from her hero TACO.

Well there has always been socialism in the US but mainly for business with privatize the profit and socialize the losses.

In reality, who would have thought America would be acting the way it is now, they will nationalize anything they want and no one will stop them. It is not the same world as when 4 years ago, the feelings is coming fast.

The SCOTUS is useless as it’s in the back pocket of the Donvict, and it’s America we are talking about, you know they like to replace entire governments, if they don’t want the tech leaving it just will not be allowed.

All the Cheeto in charge has to do is say national security risk or Elons now a terrorist blah blah blah, the most powerful nation on earth will do whatever it feels like to protect itself.

Well if it becomes the 51st state I’ll not need to worry about it as I would have died trying to defend it, even with its shitty problems.

But point taken send him south

Rules for thee and all of that…

Well played!

Uh no they can’t if the US government doesn’t let them.

What are the courts going to stop them from seizing the equipment.

With someone else’s front?

Look I hate AI, but someone has to do that face blending thing between these three chucklefucks…

Well they’re acting like the little shit stain with their big brother standing behind them.

The Zionist’s are running it for the good Israelis.

Just didn’t deport him to Canada, El Salvador would be fine. Or you know launch the middle of the Atlantic would be ok.

Yeah it is normal on cranes (not 100% about Germany), but the single line (whip) is more than suitable for the weight of man baskets, and it is much faster as you’re not going through as many sheaves. Usually you attach the main connector to the hook and the safety line to the cable above the hook, but not connected to the cable like using a shackle to loop over the cable… So if for some reason the hook on the main connector fails you still have the cable above the hook, but if the cable itself fails then that’s it you’re done.

Usually cables are inspected but unfortunately shit can still happen.

Volkswagen was definitely had the loudest outrage but as you mention, anyone making a diesel was doing the same thing.

And to your point about morals, yeah most corporations have no idea what morals are, and some might say that’s their right as a company to just focus on money, damn everyone and everything else, your health, the environment not if it interferes with my corporations profit margin.

Social contract what’s that about.

Imagine if every other business did this. You bought a Ford, well they made a deal with Goodyear and if you put any other tire on we will shut the vehicle down.

Or like the telcos, you paid for the data but didn’t use it all, so you lose it, Shell will be coming to siphon the gas or of your vehicle because you didn’t use it on time.

You will own nothing and be happy, now get back to work.

Didn’t Ford do something similar with the Maverick?

Hope to see this expand in items and companies, especially for items nearing the end of their viable life (well viable for the company profit not the user).

So when is it your dream, once it starts it once it finishes, is it like quantum physics where by just observing an experiment you influence it. So are all the dreams it there and readily available for download and then it becomes your dream. Are nightmares someone else’s dreams and that’s why they’re disturbing?
