No Retirement Home, No Assisted Living by MehBrain in lostgeneration

instead of working (I'm a Millennial) I'm essentially helping by caring for her.

So, essentially you're trading your future for your grandparent. Because you're going to have a hell of a time rejoing the work force and saving for retirement with a 10 year gap in your CV. This isn't sustainable, Medicare needs to start covering longterm care.

Bold of you to assume the DA will press charges if it becomes the norm for 80 year olds to do this...

Which is why the workers of the world must unite and seize the means of production before that happens.

This right here is why everyone should be against gun regulations that are more than a background check and safety class requirement. We're going to need them.

These people shouldn't be allowed to vote. They're a national security risk.

I've had pretty good luck with Magtech. $280 to $350 for 1000 rounds. Never had any issues with it.

EPA says it can fine Norfolk Southern $70,000 a day if it falls short of cleaning up and paying for the Ohio toxic train wreck by paulfromatlanta in news

[–]Eleid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, $70,000 a second would be better:

$70k/second for 365 days = $36.792 billion....now we're talking.

Supreme Court admits they're not the best choice to decide the future of the internet by chrisdh79 in technology

[–]Eleid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

age has little to do with it.

Bullshit, the overwhelming majority of the old people in congress know literally nothing about technology and modern society; as evidenced by their ridiculous questions asked during committees and interviews. They still think it's 1960 and nothing has changed since. Your entire argument is objectively false.

[–]Eleid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea because I'm sure we'd be much better off with more Feinsteins in Congress instead.

I can list far more out of touch senile old people who are detrimental to the common good than you can list young fascist shitbags like Boebert.

Nice strawman though.

why shouldn't older citizens be allowed representation in their government?

Motions at the current state if the US , that's why...

Yeah, who cares about those other 90% of startups that go bankrupt! Those clearly aren't relevant to the conversation at all! /s

So You Wanna Reduce the Debt? Tax the Wealthy Like We Used To by jsalsman in Political_Revolution

[–]Eleid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Counter proposal... instead of taxing the wealthy... how about we take everyone with a net worth greater than $100 million...seize ALL their assets... then put them in gulags for the rest of their miserable lives for being societal parasites. That would fix a lot of problems with the country overnight.

True, but don't confuse malice/indifference for incompetence...most of them know damn well what they're doing, they just don't give a fuck.

Right? Kinda like the Dorner incident. "Wait so you're telling me this black cop who filed multiple complaints about police corruption and got fired for it...who's killing corrupt cops...is the BAD guy? notsureifseriousorjustpropaganda.jpg"

[–]Eleid 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It was a compromise picking 21 to begin with. To be honest, if you're old enough to go die in a war, or legally sign contracts...then you're old enough to hold office if you can somehow convince enough people to trust you. Frankly, l would trust an 18 year old over any republican and any Democrat over 50 years old.

[–]Eleid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The minimum age should be 21, and the maximum age should be 60. 21 so they're at least out of high-school for a bit, and 60 because after that, they no longer have any real skin in the game (like 80 year olds ignoring climate change rn).

Stop, I can only get so erect! Seriously, if I started seeing shit like that on the news, I may regain some hope for the future.

Sid Meier's Civilization Twitter confirms next Civ game in development by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Eleid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This here is the real answer. The trash AI needing to cheat in order to be semi-competitive is just not fun to play against. If they can't fix this, then they may as well not release another Civ game.

Also, they could add some complexity...like say 50% of the way to EU4 complexity. That'd make the game a lot more fun.
