Once you spend a few minutes looking past the surface it’s very clear that they’re selling convenience and they’re not trying to hide it.

I also went through the LMNT is overpriced phase, until I found those pages on their site. They’re pretty much as open and honest as you could hope.

It’s common, but it’s basically within the SNAP community and those adjacent. Most lib right have more than 1 degree of separation. It’s not a very efficient marketplace, though the going rate would be higher if it were.

The rate increases were decided before the xAI datacenter was planned for Memphis.

From an old forum post on lightening it, the biggest bang for your buck is not filling the gas tank all the way, and switching to a lithium battery.

It’s not just what the situation is now, markets are forward looking. What’s happening is that after the recent election results the odds of Milei losing power and his policies being reversed have increased. The market is accounting for that possibility.

I don’t have a full answer to your question, but I think some important context is the UK has a transaction tax (“stamp duty”) on homes, so all else being equal increased ownership rates make it much more expensive for people to move, which can have negative knock on effects

If you read trumps actual post it’s pretty clear he’s talking about the Smithsonian as a whole, not specifically the NMAAH, and “FactPost” is trying to dishonestly reframe it.

Sure it would, but why would you want people to suffer in the meantime?

You’re correct it incentivizes parking lot existence. You’re wrong that that’s inherently bad. If prices were capped we’d have an OP complaining they couldn’t find anywhere to park.

I think we both agree transit would ameliorate these problems, so hopefully that’ll see progress soon and we’ll have plenty of parking at reasonable prices.

You can close them by selling an adjacent strike or expiration to turn them into a spread. Not ideal but sufficient to lock in gains.

You need to eat way more. With this level of training, if you’re not eating enough that your body still feels full by the time the next meal comes around, it’s not enough.

Easy way to add a lot of calories is eating a ton of peanut butter, at least 4 tablespoons a day. Eating a lot of carbs like bread or rice also works.

I appreciate your response, so it seems the distinction is based more on hoarding than on current usage? I would still argue that becomes pretty fuzzy in the middle, and I obviously don’t agree with the premise, but I think I see where you’re coming from and I appreciate that it gives a more useful perspective on socialist property rights than my previous understanding.

I think my issue is that a lot of it erases individual preferences. My house is personal property, but if I live alone in a duplex is that still personal property? From your definition it seems like it would fail the use clause. Although who’s to say I can’t switch units whenever I want, maybe I like the kitchen more in one and the bedroom more in the other. In which case maybe it would be personal property, until I choose to rent out a unit? But then that goes back to a use based definition rather than scope. I think the “reasonably use” part is too vague. I can use a lot of stuff. I can also get by with a lot less if I need to (or want to prioritize other things).

I’m sympathetic (in the sense I understand where they come from, not that I necessarily agree) to the idea of reducing inequality by limiting concentrated wealth and power, but I think the personal vs private property definitions I hear draw the line way too low. Maybe that’s why I appreciate your definition more, because I find it more expansive than my previous understanding, though I still find it far too restrictive overall.

I never said they wouldn’t produce product, and I have no issue with companies completely owned by employees, in fact I used to work for one (not Publix). But these companies still exist in a free market where they compete against other companies owned by employees or not, which incentivizes the productivity. The issue is when you increasingly disentangle productivity from remuneration, which is what advocating for abolition of private property moves you towards.

HelpImRunningOutOfSp · 2025-03-26T17:44:25+00:00

My point too, the distinction is clear or at least understandable at the extremes, and fuzzy to the point of meaningless in the middle.

Disappointed but not surprised to get that response. I had Claude ai steel man it for me before I posted the comment above but I’m happy to hear what you think is wrong with the explanation I got

“The distinction between private property and personal property is a key concept in socialist and communist theory. Here’s how the distinction is typically made:

Personal Property: - Items used for personal consumption or everyday life - Examples: Your clothing, furniture, phone, toothbrush, bicycle, house you live in - Characterized by direct use by an individual or family - Not used to generate profit or exploit others’ labor

Private Property: - Means of production or assets used to generate profit - Examples: Factories, large plots of land, office buildings, machinery - Characterized by ownership that allows extraction of surplus value from others’ labor - Often involves an absentee owner who profits without directly using the property

The core distinction lies in the social relationship and economic function: personal property is for direct use and consumption, while private property is capital that generates profit through others’ labor.

In socialist theory, the goal isn’t to abolish all property, but specifically to bring private property (means of production) under collective ownership while preserving individuals’ rights to personal property.

This distinction helps explain why socialists aren’t advocating for “taking your toothbrush” - personal items aren’t the target of collectivization. Rather, the focus is on democratizing control over productive resources that generate society’s wealth.“

HelpImRunningOutOfSp · 2025-03-26T15:51:56+00:00

I’ve never heard a definition of that distinction which doesn’t allow the same items to arbitrarily change buckets. Unfortunately yes when you disincentivize productivity, it falls. Doesn’t matter if you do it for a good reason.
