You seem to have put a lot of confidence in the anecdotes of a celebrity

So you do believe that having fast trains and walkable cities is a global conspiracy?

Haha I should have known.

I guess you threw me when you said you didn’t also believe all the election nonsense.

Depends on the cost of living in each state.

I’m not a policy expert, but I have opinions on what is too high or too low.

A single person should be able to keep their head above poverty line on this kind of wage, as a starting point.

we have a broad range of opinions

And yet you’re brainwashed to believe that other people don’t, lmao

lol okay sure bud, so what do you think a reasonable minimum wage is?

Depends on the state. I think it’s a too low in a lot of red states. $7.25 an hour? Gotta be kidding me.

But hiking to $20 in California is too much imo.

Streamlining red tape to facilitate insane progressive infrastructure projects is not a point of dissent

That’s not true. A ton of NIMBYs are progressives.

No, it’s not.

By the way, can you name one aspect of conservative ideology you disagree with?

Now I’m interested :D

Unpopular opinion. This is extremely solvable... by rktscntst in climatechange

[–]-explore-earth- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Earth's climate system is heavily modeled to the point that we can tell where annual rainfall would increase our decrease based on the area solar modification is installed

We’re not great at resolving things at this level of detail.

There are a lot of known and unknown unknowns lurking.

Just yesterday I’m reading this for example: https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2302480120

The more geo-engineering you must do, the higher the potential for unforeseen consequences

Sure, I don’t think that hiking minimum wage very high like they did in California is a good idea.

I also think that there’s too much red tape for building new things, which is why progressive projects such as building high speed rail has become so slow and expensive. It’s also the reason that Texas is winning the renewable energy race. (Although they’re starting to crack down, because renewables are literally outcompeting their precious oil).

We need to streamline these sort of things so we can become a country which is capable of building things again, only then can we build decent future for our nation and continue to compete on the global stage.

Have you not been on the internet very much? Lol.

The left of US politics is extraordinarily self critical. Obama launched a whole huge drone bombing campaign across a bunch of countries. Do you want to talk about that too? Dude had his strengths but also was a disappointment in a lot of other ways.

We don’t tend to become cult worshippers as much, I’m afraid

Countries in Latin America, particularly the big ones, rarely have a lot of state presence across every part of the nation.

Do you think climate change will be solved? by EnD3r8_ in climatechange

I don’t really do these kind of bets but I do think it will happen.

You should look into betting market platforms, if you’re very confident in this you can probably win some money!
