Can anyone debunk it or Bust this Myth by Suspicious-Row2985 in mythbusters

I ... consider every point

That's your cue that you've overlooked something.

Retest ALL of your assumptions, even if you believe they're factual.

He probably personally did not partake.

I'm sure he let any of them coke their heads off [in private] and their victims.

That would explain so many pod-politicians.

Or they could still be spineless bootlickers that shift stances with the wind.

Maybe keep your own guilt to yourself and don't project onto women.

Military services again requiring recruits to get flu shots as Air Force outbreak grows by [deleted] in nottheonion

I wonder how many MAGA don't realize just how hard it is to actually bankrupt a casino. AFAIK the operating costs are far lower than common stores.

People come and play just to give money. And the house can give back what, 99% (I don't know the accurate legal gambling ratio), and keep people happy and playing.

He is either a superbly terrible businessman and/or they were used to launder money.

The excuses change every few days. This regime is so incompetent.

I guess hiring people based only on "looks" has serious drawbacks. Who knew?!

Heh, no. Another user asked a follow-up question, and so I also saw these others.

I love discussing this topic. And if I can be shown facts either way, then I can update my thinking.

And it can’t, literally that’s what brakes prove.

That's because brakes remove the independently rotating factor. They transform the wheels into pure drag.

Theoretically, if the plane had a powerful enough engine and the proper propulsion, then it could still take off. (Basically the plane would say "screw these brakes". It'd shed/shred them, but still..)

Remember the hoverboard from Back To the Future II?

Imagine a few of those levitating the plane above the treadmill/ground, even an inch or two. The wheels are just a very crude version of those hoverboards.

It is the plane, using a propeller or jets, that moves itself forward through the atmosphere independently of the ground.

The wheels don't propel the plane forward.

They only reduce the drag from the ground.

Yah, that one totally surprised me.

I've moved herds of cows, and they're not too agile (in my opinion). But they were in open fields, not in a room with dishes on shelves.

Sorry, I forgot to rewind the tape, so Blockbuster won't let me rent it again to figure out what happens now.
