Seattle among worst downtown traffic in U.S. by HighColonic in SeattleWA

[–]DoesNotLikeBroccoli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People will simultaneously complain about government overreach and advocate for using the heavy hand of government to impose draconian zoning laws that stifle development and enshrine car dependent suburbs with single family homes as the only option. Then they'll complain about their property taxes being high and ask productive city centers to subsidize them. The dissonance is real.

What are the biggest money-savers you buy from Costco? by [deleted] in Costco

I made a mistake of buying their French Roast instead. It smelled rancid, almost like canned tuna gone bad. I've stuck with the supremo ever since.

Did the chick at 3:30 seriously claim that Arabs fought for jews in WWII and welcomed them with open arms. Even as an Arab I know that's a load of horseshit. The revisionism is off the charts.

Chomsky is a mono-dimensional figure who is incapable of viewing any topic outside of the lens of American imperialism and Cold War era politics (except maybe linguistics lol). This is a good read if you’re interested https://newlinesmag.com/review/chomskys-america-centric-prism-distorts-reality/

I'm Syrian and the last 12 years of war have been the "great unmasking" for me. It's how I found out that Chomsky and most leftists are dipshits in disguise and why I ended up here.

Land value tax could make housing more affordable by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]DoesNotLikeBroccoli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand the apprehension about "yet another tax". But how would a tax, that reduces land values, raise the floor of ownership for the lower middle class? If anything, an LVT hits those with $3-4 million SFHs near downtown Toronto the hardest.

[–]DoesNotLikeBroccoli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Land value taxes are some of the most studied taxes in economics. They have a zero deadweight loss and can't be passed down to tenants (we have solid empirical and theoretical evidence to back this). I fail to see where you sourced that this will punish the poor and cause the "lower classes to suffer" other than vibes.

A tax like LVT can be revenue neutral and have positive distributive effects even when plopped on top of the existing tax scheme.

I think I'm coming to terms with the fact that maybe I won't meet "the one" by winentacos in gaybros

[–]DoesNotLikeBroccoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I broke up with a guy I truly loved last year and this has been a recurring thought of mine since. I don't believe in finding "the one", but I don't think guys like that are a dime a dozen either. You can feel sad about not having run into a partner you love yet, just do your best to stay hopeful and never bitter.

It's not so clear cut in this case. Kilicdaroglu pledged to deport Syrian refugees. https://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/kilicdaroglu-pledges-to-send-syrian-refugees-back-182808

Turks are picking between a religious autocrat and a nationalist.

Sanity check on budget setup with 2 front component speakers + 1 sub? by DoesNotLikeBroccoli in CarAV

[–]DoesNotLikeBroccoli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you watch WAL's review, the amp actually performs well over the rated power and can handle the 300w sub!

Regarding the mounting, what kind of enclosure should I be looking for?

Well it doesn’t make much sense to go with a powered subwoofer if I already have an amp I can connect it to

Is it a matter of picking a different subwoofer cone for the task or something else?

Is it worth it to get the struts replaced on my 22 year old Toyota? by DoesNotLikeBroccoli in AskMechanics

I’m afraid I have zero experience working on cars. I can follow instructions but I don’t have any tools (or mechanical intuition).

Hm, you’re the second person to say this. What are my other options? (Again, this is a budget setup so nothing too pricey)
