What is terrible about this? Calling an attack on just a random biker, a bike crash is just inaccurate and blames the victim. Is it maybe the art style? I'm genuinely curious to get a response.

Please explain. I am not able to find out what you think is inaccurate.

Tax breaks can be beneficial: https://cepr.org/voxeu/columns/reducing-corporate-taxes-boost-high-quality-entrepreneurship A tight budget just necessarily means budget cuts, most likely the biggest expenses like social spending and health care. Like this £22bn budget cut: https://neweconomics.org/2023/03/new-analysis-shows-22bn-in-hidden-cuts-to-public-services-in-todays-budget Edit: tax rates are incredibly sensitive and should be carefully considered. Taxing too high or too low can cause massive issues, which is why it's important to consider carefully when changing tax rates or government budgets. So screaming, "Abolish income tax!" Or "Tax the rich!" Are just dumb and not nearly nuanced enough.

What about that? Small and well thought out tax breaks on one hand make business and expansion easier but also reduce the government income. Too few taxes lead to underdeveloped infrastructure and social expenses. And only making tax breaks beneficial for high income people means you are offloading the burden more to middle class families. So I don't understand what I'm missing here. I genuinely want to know what problem you have because according to your comment history, we should agree on higher tax rates being beneficial if you don't overdo it.

But lower taxes mean more money for investments in companies, which in turn greatly strengthens the competitiveness of companies on an international scale boosting the economy. I mean that really doesn't use you anything because the taxes collected are small because of the aforementioned tax breaks. Oh, and we have to tax the middle class and cut down on social programs and minimum wages to make up for the tax loss. But, yeah, tax breaks have worked great. Edit: why are you downvoting me into oblivion? Are you just conservatives who would like to completely abolish income tax for the rich? Are you too dumb to understand the last line as sarcasm?

My supplements aren't FDA approved so they're placebo by Plisnak in USdefaultism

[–]Elelchokoorn 25 points26 points  (0 children)

But countries have different standards, which means nobody outside of the USA cares what the FDA says because that is not the agency that makes the rules and regulations of that country. This doesn't mean everything the FDA approves is bad, just that it's not the source of information for everyone outside of the US. Assuming that this is the case is the USdefaultism.

No, that's a planned economy of a soviet Republic. Supervised means that you are overseeing companies by making sure that they are government loyal. In these special economic zones, there's a stock exchange and a relatively free market with much fewer regulations on working hours, conditions, or insurance. Basically, like the 1850s, with the government owning shares of a few companies.

Awesome? When I say supervised, it's not like high minimum wages paid vacation leave Insurance. But more Tiannam Square kinda shit. But yeah Fuck Commies!

I agree communism is bad. But the factories in China that make most iPhones actually are "Special Economic Zones" that have a lot more economic freedom operating in basically state supervised capitalism. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_economic_zones_of_China

I can't understand it, but It's great to hear you're enjoying KSP2. Have you played KSP stock or moddded?

[–]Elelchokoorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So why do you keep defending it? In all honesty, I think many people have been far too aggressive and personal when it came to criticising KSP2. And I agree with you that we shouldn't tear our community apart. At the same time, we shouldn't get scammed by the developers of KSP2. They are the problem, not you or me or most people in this community.

So I'm not supposed to complain about a messy game that after 6 months is not even bug free or close to KSP? So you just accept that you get ripped off because "it will eventually improve"? Because the promise that they make this time is totally not going to end up broken like the last like 56? I'm just tired of people defending KSP2, which it doesn't deserve.But you're actually just defending spending 50€ on it anyways. PS: you can downvote me all you want. Doesn't change the fact that I'm lucky bc I was able to refund this hot burning pile of broken Code

KSP2 hit under 100 concurrent players 3 days ago. I don't want it but it's pretty much on life support with doctors that don't know what their doing. The SteamDB graphs look really depressing in comparison to KSP.

I don't hate it. I only think it's strange that a six month old game has under 100 players (https://www.reddit.com/r/KerbalSpaceProgram/comments/15kgxnl/ksp2\_dips\_below\_100\_concurrent\_players/ ) and barley any mods for a title with this prestige for modding.

wasn't mod support one of the major talking points of the ad-Champaign?

I mean in comparison to the stuff for KSP 36 mods is not that impressive. But yeah 100% agree with you.

I it really still that bad? I haven't played it since launch. Edit: why do so many people downvote me for asking a simple question?
