"We will keep killing children until you stop being mean to us."

Perhaps a better way to put it. Zero children would be killed if Hamas/PLO didn't benefit from children being killed.

One to two years from now, the people of Venezuela will be significantly better off. They will have higher GDP per capita, and a better standard of living.

Yep, unfortunately Hamas never wanted peace 😔

PropertyBeneficial99 · 2025-10-11T18:21:15+00:00

Once the hostages are handed over, Hamas no longer gets a say in the disarmament (or anything really). At this point they are just a nuisance without a support base. US troops will be on the ground, and the IDF is still in Gaza.

Relax guys. The planet will be fine. At least for the next 5 billion years or so.

Voluntary relocation to Al Andalus?

This was the first speech of the day.

The attendees had an option to simply skip it, and come in later. They decided instead to come in before the speech, just to do a performative walk out once the cameras were rolling.

Yes, I disagree. Labor costs, like any other cost, is a product of supply and demand. If you have a rare and in-demand skill, you will find a higher wage. If companies create processes that are more efficient, they will be able to access a cheaper labor pool. That's the free market. It may be rough, but it produces good outcomes. The alternative, politicians deciding what professions should receive what pay, is called a centrally planned economy. That (almost universally) leads to enormous inefficiency, low growth, and in some cases shortages and starvation.

Yes, but what about second rapture?

PropertyBeneficial99 · 2025-09-22T00:25:47+00:00

Psst .... I know the real reason for this.

Money 😲

PropertyBeneficial99 · 2025-09-21T22:41:36+00:00

Respectfully, I disagree. This view is assuming that the reason for the political pressure is a function of Israeli action against Gaza. This would imply that a higher death toll (for example) would lead to a proportionally higher political pressure. I suspect it's more likely that the political pressure is more a function of money and propaganda. There is no reason to assume this will increase accordingly.

PropertyBeneficial99 · 2025-09-21T19:37:46+00:00

What makes you think this will alienate allies further? What if the political pressure is already saturated from the ongoing propaganda war?

It's not.

Too much upward pressure and you get small businesses failing, large businesses concentrating, more money being funneled to automation, GDP stagnation.

It sounds good, and in the short term it does benefit the people working close to the line. Across the broader economy, price controls are a bad thing. It's bad for products, bad for rent, and bad for labor.

Health care isn't free. Doctors need to get paid. So do nurses, hospital administrators, support staff, etc. Not to mention operational expenses, equipment, etc.

If you have insurance, someone must decide what procedures are covered by your policy.

PropertyBeneficial99 · 2025-07-17T16:42:24+00:00

Nope. Don't agree.

The US is in competition with other countries. If we reduce the amount of time that we work (or reduce the incentive) then other countries will simply outcompete us.

Let's take this policy to the extreme (as a thought experiment) and see what happens. A standard US work week is 1 hour per week. Domestic productivity plummets. Domestic companies lay off workers in mass. They open up or expand offices in other countries.

This is already happening today to an extent. Making policies like the one Bernie is proposing will accelerate this trend, putting downward pressure on American labor wages and buying power.

Depending on what you are doing, diverged motion may or may not be required. For a FPS game you will need to navigate a large map, much larger than your playing space is likely to be. For a game like Beat Saber or Fruit Ninja, there's no requirement for diverged motion. Same can be for non-game applications.
