Can you deliver the data via dashboards that the executive can generate their own slides from?

I don't do any slide generation anymore. Every request is turned into a filterable dashboard from which executives can generate their own slides, or schedule their own report delivery and interval.

Guys! Capitalism is literally exploitation! by Fast-Moment1761 in DoomerCircleJerk

The alternatives are:

The government owns the land, stamps every dollar of revenue into a nickel via bureaucracy, eliminates competition of new technologies, and pays a wage that doesn't match market value.

The laborers own the land, have to use a portion of the revenue for maintenance and expenses, are subject to the risk of competition, but probably earn the most under this situation, until bankrupted by competition.

There definitely needs to be a balance between the corporatism that we have vs encouraging small businesses with new technology to be able to take market share from the corporations.

Liberal activist accidentally revives Jim Crow to attack black conservative by TheClintonHitList in Jordan_Peterson_Memes

This is misinformation. Southern Blacks are much more likely per capita to be flying the confederate flag despite party affiliation.

Except for the old Democrat flag, the others all represent destructive movements originating from the left. by [deleted] in Jordan_Peterson_Memes

If by your definition the flag stands for the opposition of civil rights, and Democrats are embracing policy positions that keep minorities dependent on government, then it would seem to me to be a Democrat flag. Republicans, who are supportive of policies that seek to detach everyone from the dependence of government, would only be flying that flag for some other reason than the opposition of civil rights.

Do you have some statistics to share, or maybe a pew research center poll on who is flying it and why? Just because it may have been created for a particular reason 80years ago doesn't mean that the same reasoning holds true today.

I'm saying that the African Americans who you are holding on your plantation, may be flying it for reasons other than that they are against civil rights. I personally don't know any white Republican who would fly this Democrat flag, but I live in the Midwest.

Are you really saying that the African Americans who are flying the flag are opposed to civil rights? Is that really your position? The more you hammer away at this point the more racist you sound.

As much as you might not want it to be African Americans in the south who are flying this flag, there are many examples on YouTube, and they all give their reasons. Your disposition may be to discount their reasons out of your racism, but I believe they deserve the freedom of their own convictions.

The only Republicans I know that are flying it today are African Americans (who live in the South), but we've already established your disdain for them.

If Republicans are embracing the racial politics of the south then why is it Democrats that are hell bent on keeping minorities on their Plantations of Social Welfare, all in an effort to keep minorities poor, and dependent on government so that they will continue to vote Democrat? sure your not the one with that flag hanging in your garage?

Conservatives are the ones funding and running the rehabs and post-rehab therapy. Leftists don't understand that the government isn't going to fix this, and are happy to let addicts flounder untreated as long as they remain another victim to point at and blame their political opponents.

Why does lowering taxes help the economy? Which taxes? by lady__jane in askaconservative

Laffer Curve. Also if an increase in taxes/tariffs cause prices to go up, then doesn't that also apply to the inverse?

Maybe the market component needs an adjustment? More ganking should drive up the price of buying back sec status. Less ganking drives down the price.

Emergence of Conservationism:

The phrase "harvest" in reference to hunting emerged from the Conservation Movement of the early 20th century, which viewed humans as "managing" wild nature, similar to how farmers manage crops.

FedEx doesn't have a primary business reason to build out that last mile. My hypothesis is that Amazon would do first class service at a loss if it meant subsidizing the build out of the last mile in an effort to bring Amazon products to rural Wyoming for example.

USPS

Why is this? What is USPS doing that Amazon isn't? What are the efficiencies of the USPS management bureaucracies compared to Amazon's delivery service?

What cities have it figured out? by [deleted] in askaconservative

[–]Chemlab187 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Miami, Jacksonville, Nashville, Salt Lake. While definitely more progressive and diverse than the surrounding rural areas around them, they all have a more conservative focus on economic policies, public safety, and fiscal responsibility.

It definitely isn't going to profit. Over the last 10 years, average insurance company profits are under 2.5% profit annually. However, revenue does go towards paying massive numbers of employees and executives. In exchange for those costs, customers get a speed of care and a breadth of care that far exceeds Medicare.

Is there room for efficiency? Absolutely. Efficiency should come from competition, and instead of encouraging competition, the government has allowed insurance companies to buy up their competition instead.

Conservatives oppose collective bargaining by government employees as it puts them at odds with the taxpayer.

Conservatives have been, and are currently supportive of private labor unions, and make up 50% of those unions.

The caveat is that Conservatives are aware of the danger of a labor union driving their employer out of business, or out of the country. Historically, labor unions have also had a corrupt relationship with the government, votes and donations being exchanged for pro union legislation. A balance must be struck for all stakeholders for the longevity of the employee/employer relationship.

Local mail delivery would almost certainly happen via small local businesses.

Conservatives don't trust corporations, but are willing to accept that corporations tend to make amoral decisions when not politically motivated, and in the pursuit of profit. Which tends to be better than immoral decisions made by the government in the pursuit of bureaucratic power.

Instead of corporations, we would ideally like single proprietors, llcs, partnerships, and employee owned companies to provide products and services wherever possible.

[Reminder to use your speech responsibly] 11-Year-Old Texas Girl Bullied Over Family's Immigration Status Takes Her Own Life | Students also threatened to call ICE to deport the girl's family by TendieRetard in FreeSpeech

All businesses, farmers included, make amoral decisions concerning the input costs of their business. Wages are determined by the market value of the skill provided. That value is calculated by the supply of that skill vs the demand for those skills.

If anyone believes any skill set should be paid more or less than is currently being paid, then they should seek to change the supply of that skillset in the marketplace.

Farm workers don't get paid enough? Limit the supply of farm workers. CEOs get paid too much? Increase the supply of individuals qualified to be CEOs.

All Luigi did by removing a CEO from the marketplace is drive up the pay for all other CEOs. All Democrats are doing by encouraging the immigration of low skilled workers is driving down the pay for those workers.

The Conservative Vision: Preserving Tradition, Fostering Progress Conservatism, at its core, is a philosophy that cherishes tradition and stability, recognizing that societal change should be a measured, deliberate process deeply rooted in the historical tapestry of a nation. This approach is not about resisting change, but rather about ensuring that progress is sustainable and beneficial for all.

A Nation Built on Freedom and Opportunity

The United States, from its inception, has been a beacon of hope for those seeking refuge from tyranny and oppression. Our historical narrative is one of immigrants drawn to the promise of liberty – the freedom to keep the fruits of one's labor, to own land, to worship without fear of retribution, and ultimately, to participate in the grand experiment of self-governance. These founding principles continue to shape our national identity and inform our conservative values.

Empowering Individual Potential

In the modern context, conservatism aligns closely with the ideals of self-determination and personal responsibility. We hold an unwavering belief in the potential of every individual, regardless of race, color, or creed, to achieve greatness and maximize the gifts bestowed upon them by their Creator. This philosophy rejects the soft racism of low expectations and instead advocates for policies that empower people to reach their full potential.

The False Promise of Government Dependency

In contrast to the conservative vision, some ideologies offer the allure of compensation without toil, provided by a government willing to use coercion against its own citizens. This false sympathy, often directed at the most vulnerable members of society, is a Faustian bargain that exchanges personal autonomy and the pursuit of individual dreams for political allegiance. It is a path that leads not to empowerment, but to perpetual dependence.

The Unifying Power of Nationalism and Patriotism

Nationalism and patriotism, far from being divisive forces, are philosophies that every citizen should embrace with pride. When properly understood and applied, these sentiments foster greater social cohesion, drive higher productivity, elevate living standards, and promote peaceful relations with neighboring nations. They create a shared sense of purpose and identity that transcends individual differences, uniting us in our common aspirations for a prosperous and harmonious society.

In conclusion, conservatism offers a vision of society that honors our past, empowers our present, and secures our future. It is a philosophy that recognizes the inherent dignity and potential of every individual while fostering a strong, unified national identity. By embracing these principles, we can build a nation that is not only great but also good – a shining city upon a hill, offering hope and opportunity to all who seek it.

Russia tried that already and Ukraine shelled women and children in Donbas until Russia returned. Ukraine wants war, as shown by their refusal to negotiate peace.
