She helped Germany de-provision their nuclear energy via emotion driven policy, so they could inevitably deploy coal to avoid deindustrialization.

A 2tb SSD can now be bought for 100$ at least.

So non-native Canadians and the Americans should give up all their land back to the indigenous and move back to Europe?

Well your country may have been on stolen land, what if you had a group of people near you that wanted to take the land back by force; are you willing to give up your own house?

The whole question is absurd, you’re not going to, and you’re also not going to let them continue attacking you, because your desire to save your family from rape and murder is greater than your empathy.

These Gazans are going to get eliminated, nobody wants to help them, just ask Kuwait and Lebanon. Israels tolerance for terrorism was the only reason they were still alive to begin with, and the murder spree has broken that tolerance.

Imagine if you were an Israeli citizen and there were religious fanatics coming into your towns and murdering and kidnapping everyone, what would be your response and expectation of your government?

I just needed to make the joke, because part of me is still a child.

Polygamy is back on the menu boys!

Democrats arent even in favor of universal healthcare, in other countries I think they’d be conservatives.

Well its good to bring so much attention to him so others can see and lose some brain cells themselves.

I think it was supposed to foster cooperation, just as the equalization payments were. Yet Alberta or BC still cant export energy to Europe. Quebec is a dead weight on Canada’s productivity, and are like a spoiled child, the only role they play is in swinging the election one way or another.

Who is this Joe Rogan, I should look at some of his videos I guess, thanks for bringing him to my attention.

Europe broke their own procurement laws in order to choose Microsoft for the cloud, its good that tariffs were enough for them to finally follow their own laws.

We don’t have open borders, so we already do disallow entry. We just used to match it to capacity, which is what I’m saying is logical to do.

So cram them into substandard housing because they deserve less rights than animals?

You’re not offering a tangible answer here, the argument is situational similarity, not ontological equivalence.

If you had a zoo would you continue bringing in animals if they had no space left to live comfortably?

Likely you would call that inhumane, you wouldnt say they were being intolerant of the new animals if they did not.

we got in this morass because the neoliberal state and its accompanying economy financialized every damn thing

The problem is monetary policy, not deregulation. Deregulation of zoning and housing policy would actually prevent monetary policy from creating such a large housing bubble.

Our Bank of Canada targets a 2% inflation, which means prices need to continuously rise as technology actively reduces goods prices, and we then exclude investments and housing appreciation entirely, and we do hedonic adjustments to discount goods inflation. Then there’s likely an element of shrinkflation, as company find tricks to cheapen products or degrade services, which lead to no inflation in the CPI but higher profits and then lower prices.

So the money supply needs to grow via low interest rates, in order to provide a windfall to boomers to encourage them sell their real estate holdings, to create new bank loans, to increase the money supply, which turns into aggregate demand, in order to create inflation in the CPI.

But we can’t build enough houses due to reverse neo-liberalism, so housing acts as liquidity sponges for cheap debt, and people hold them as investments in perpetuity since they think prices are always going to go up. Also as interest rates fall inflation falls, as interest expense is included in the CPI while housing appreciation is not, its a feedback loop due to its poorly constructed nature. The Bank of Canada now also buys half of all mortgage bonds to attempt to reverse this, so they’re actually printing money in order to cause deflation funnily enough, again due to the absurd way the CPI is constructed.

I got a 8bitdo 2c and its got bluetooth/2.4ghz and hall effect joystick for less than 30$.

Give tax credits to companies that help serve content via something like Peertube. They can use their spare capacity.

Use it for CBC as well.

Doomberg, the most popular energy market substack poster, has a theory that Trump wanted Carney to win in order to push an east to west pipeline during an Alberta sovereignty crisis. It actually seems to be going all as they predicted, including Trudeau stepping down and Carney then winning the election.

Its a fun theory anyways.

The NDP started as a merger of labor party, saying they are a hero after a decade of abandoning labor seems silly to me. Thats how it ties together.

The NDP who brought us universal healthcare actually fully funded everything via taxes, the current incarnation of the NDP didnt fund a single program they created, meaning it is funded with future austerity with interest and inflation.
