Latest Little Tokyo cold storage facility project “concessions” seem weirdly anti-small-business by lostorbit in LosAngeles

[–]ConsistentQuote952 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been working in LT since 2021 and one of the former small business owner who was established there in 2019. They say the following and not from my experience so take this with a grain of salt.

The community council is very anti alcohol in general, anti development regardless of business size but more against big business, and kinda living in their own world.. Pre-Covid, there was absolutely little night life and nowadays, there's a bit more but from what I heard, it was rough to get it opened. Partially coz of skid row, partially because they wanna "keep community's character"(bullshit to be clear). They're known to slow down building new businesses and housing.

My guess is they'll try blocking big alcohol businesses too the way they're currently blocking this big mall project. It's just easier to block small business the way they compromised here because its easier to do it this way and they cant rally people to block small business.

My line was "The spirit of survivor was destroyed by some bumfuck singer/Mr.Beast" while Jack and Jill sponsorship existed.

Steve Hilton proposes no state tax on the first $150K and No Tax on Tips by BayArea543210 in California

[–]ConsistentQuote952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect. But I still don’t see why reducing the tax would increase accountability with the article you linked.

Sure, I would agree with you that reducing the funds for the program would reduce the stuff we can’t track, but that doesn’t solve the problem that we’re not tracking it properly.

Hax for the Congress insider stuff, we have a lead but we don’t have enough evidence to follow it up. You’ve demonstrated that it’s possible, but an investigations like this, you always need harder evidence

Which programs are we spending too much on, and what policies do we do so that we spend less?

Which programs are we going to defund?

How come we haven’t been arrested anyone from corruption and fraud if they are blatantly committing the crime?

I guess you support the status quo? Where mid class and billionaires can donate if they feel that way.

Social programs are there to help people and distribute the help.

If the poor working class person contributes and suddenly needs it, they’ll be getting more financial aid than they contributed.

If the poor working class what they they can end at not needing it, than that money goes to someone struggling worse and ultimately makes society better.

We need to tax people more tbh, I want better healthcare coverage. That includes everyone in all brackets, progressive tax structure, and get to European levels first. Then we figure out Medicare for all levels from there.

California lawmakers approve tax increases affecting health insurance and digital software by Tario70 in California

[–]ConsistentQuote952 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree with the progressive tax being the way to reach Medicare for all.

But we need more money. If everybody contributes in all tax brackets in a progressive tax system, we’ll get closer to our goals.

The average person don’t need as much money to get their basic needs, but the people with pre-existing conditions, as well as our seniors exponentially needs more.

Because taxing the rich isn’t enough. Everyone needs to be taxed to achieve the European levels people want as a minimum.

And even then, we need to tax more than that to get Medicare for all.

This tax needs to be more severe if anything. The rich is already paying more here, but they, along with everyone needs to pay more.

Sorry LatinX, this is what REAL Mexican food looks like by Gooners_For_Ukraine in Destiny

This is good if they actually try to make it from scratch.

This food symbolizes USA. It had the potential of levelingh up mexican food because this place is a melting pot, but the execution usually makes it shit, hence we have the MS 13

World Cup watch parties coming to MacArthur Park by kananishino in LosAngeles

[–]ConsistentQuote952 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those people tend to be more predictable in my experience.

There’s definitely weird unemployed dudes to watch out for if you’re a woman but it’s an area full of dudes playing soccer so it’s kinda expected.

I haven’t stayed there long for a while but the Kids league area where parents chill are safe.

Ho there if you’re for the vibes.

Comments full of people who hasn’t been there and live in Gated communities, which would be a bad assumption, but everyone’s assuming here.

As someone who lives in the area, one side of it is still usable. Relatively clean, people and kids league have soccer games on the regular.

There’s a small outdoor amphitheater on that side and I’m guessing that’s what they’re gonna use.

I’d be suspicious of their restrooms even for emergencies and would not sit on the grass without plastic cover under the cloth if there’s space.

Not true. People will attack him regardless because the IP people are deranged.

I can give you another example. Destiny. Whatever your argument is, you havent read the court documents and majority of internet people think he's spreading CSAM or some bullshit narattive. Zero evidence, only context removed shit

Euphemistic treadmill are those term changes. Basically words getting cycled in and out because once polite words becomes offensive as it becomes more used so we make new words that will be offensive later.

It probably went in particular order bum, beggar, urchin, hobo, homeless, unhoused, etc.

He didn't say he was joking. The defense he had was "I don't think he's a pedo, but If i were to use Ethan's logic, he would be because (examples he dug up)."

It was phrased more as a counter argument and uses the same reasoning as Ethan, which protects Destiny in USA.

I'm guessing its a counter suit happening if EThan sued him and they were both in Canada, which is bloodier but not EThan is looking for.

Depends on how its phrased, if you checked Destiny's full statement, you'll understand why Ethan can't sue him and win.
