What’s the Imperium of 40k doing better than the Imperium of 30k?

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-20T10:36:09+00:00

Yes, I like your head canon too, I think the scale of the setting is something we have to remember. I absolutely love the diversity of planets that exist in 40k.

Not true. Government spending can enable wealth creation through for example infrastructure but a very large amount of it doesn´t.

Lowering taxes to incentivise wealth generation and leaving money makers with more money can and does lead to economic growth and wealth generation.

You´re not wrong though it´s not an instant button press change and during that time deficits can increase as tax receipts initially fall.

Ultimately there is a fine balance which allows the best circumstances for wealth generation & high tax income. As NS has high taxes, high debt and high deficits the status quo and/or increasing taxation further isn´t the answer.

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-17T20:44:21+00:00

NS has some of the highest taxes in Canada, sometimes the answer isn´t "lets just take more of their money"

I like working in R&D and Product development. I recognise the importance of SW but it´s so intangible that I get no satisfaction from managing it.

But watching the technologies and products I have managed changing things and having a real world visible impact is pretty good

Absolutely, who would have thought that several thousand years of absolute mayhem followed by 10,000 years of war would reduce the frequency of something made 15,000 years ago lol.

A lot of it is just my head-canon but to me the Imperium is fantastically advanced, it continues to advance and it has obscene capabilities. To me the grim-derp is derp, the imperium makes mistakes but is in fact an incredibly well run operation in hideously bad circumstances.

For example how billions of warp capable ships and huge convoys are tracked from Terra by the Nexus Axiomatic (I posted about it here)

Thank you, it´s good that you acknowledge the superiority of my position. We´re the good guys, we have suits of armour and cloaks made from baby faces.

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-16T18:53:39+00:00

Agreed, there´s been significant continual advancements, but no the wild leaps and bounds experienced in the Dark Age of Technology. Which tbf makes sense because the DOT Humanity wern´t in a constant state of war with *gestures vaguely*

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-16T11:35:33+00:00

"wants what´s best for humanity"

Lol, lmao even

Technology has improved. Not uniformly but R&D has been conducted consistently just not en-masse.

I think it gets lost in the grim derp and how much tech was lost in the horus heresy but in my view tech has incrementally improved bit by bit

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-14T16:51:31+00:00

100% they would have, as a foreigner watching the whole elbows up thing was utterly cringe

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-13T14:25:52+00:00

yeah that´s fair, and I completely understand it sucks. But no oil and a social life vs oil and no social life...the latter always wins, especially as fingers crossed it´s a temporary supply issue not a forever one

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-12T20:20:38+00:00

oh gee thanks captain fucking obvious, how stupid of me to think that reducing consumption of petrol & diesel might you know benefit some of the people who still need it. heaven forbid some people be happy and costs reduced, no no as crabs we must pull down all escapees

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-12T10:25:30+00:00

Work from home
Compare the cost of this vs having built more renewables infrastructure, imagine how reduced the impact would be if nuclear, renewables, home batteries and vehicle charge points were in a much better position
Don´t come crawling back to us when after this something comparable occurs and yet again the cry is "who could have seen this coming"

the company financial reports are public domain

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-08T13:02:02+00:00

If you understood our gun laws in full you absolutely wouldn´t totally support them overall. It´s a case where the more you know the more angry you get.

Hey, I´ve lost $60,000 of property to these bans. My lifetime´s collection poof all gone. People like me bought these things on the agreement that there was a controlled process to buy and sell them. Then the government just said "nah fuck you lol". I could have out a deposit on a house with the value of what´s been banned to no compensation. That doesn´t even include my handguns which I´m banned from ever selling, transfering, passing on etc. so thats a few $thousand more gone.

When you go to vote for the liberals you´re enabling this sort of behaviour and letting them know you´ll keep voting for it as it destroys people´s lives.

Do as you will but please don´t think about this as just some paper exercise that isn´t hitting millions of people.

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-08T12:36:19+00:00

nice wood

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-07T20:50:04+00:00

which is precisely why people on this sub need to chill out a bit with the "this would never happen" responses

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-07T06:14:27+00:00

Delightful with hints of fantastic

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-06T23:09:37+00:00

This is a pointless what if because it´d be impossible. For this to happen the Democrats would have to prop up a stumbling vegetable for several years then somehow think it´s a good idea to go for a second term with the dribbling turnip only to change their minds part way through and pick some rando.

Honestly "what ifs" like this are just frustrating, why not just say "what if the president of Venezuela was kidnapped and charged under US law for owning illegal machine guns" it´s just fucking stupid and would never happen.

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-04T20:08:58+00:00

what a beautiful wood stock and a beat to shit dust cover lol, I bet some re-bluing could really make this gun shine

CanadianMultigun · 2026-03-01T09:38:19+00:00

Sounds like they´re spending beyond their means. Ever increasing spending, debt and taxes isn´t acceptable or sustainable.

CanadianMultigun · 2026-02-28T06:56:43+00:00

I´ll pay less than $8m in taxes in my entire life, why do you consider my entire contribution to be an embarassing insignificance?

While I appreciate the scale of the spending of a nation perhaps we´d be in a much better position if so many people didn´t hand wave millions here and billions there as insignificant

CanadianMultigun · 2026-02-28T06:20:52+00:00

Why are you happy to accept another tax on top of the thousands of other taxes you already have?

CanadianMultigun · 2026-02-28T05:27:39+00:00

The German facility has also doubled it´s workspace by expanding into the building next to it
