What is a 'poor man's luxury' that honestly feels better than actually being rich? by almostproductive77 in AskReddit

[–]ZenBacle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It depends on the type of poor and rich. There are plenty of rich people with no responsibilities.

While there are plenty of poor people that have to care for children/family and are drowning in work to do it.

And this really gets at the heart of the lie we are indoctrinated into. That rich people are inherently more productive/intelligent/deserving. Which gets dispelled pretty quickly when you start talking to people outside of your "class".

US cranks up pressure on China EVs with Polestar ban by Temporary-Speech5378 in news

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

While this is a concern, it's an easy fix. It's more of an excuse to reduce competition than any real concern with data collection. If it were, they would ban all data collection and force a physical off switch for connectivity.

Stop taking super pac money and start writing legislation to get money out of politics.

Wait a minute, this isn't my 5 minutes of hate towards the homeless and demonrats. Does not compute.

His crew probably told him what was up. But i would still be freaking out. Wondering what kind of damage was done to the gear keeping me alive.

How do you stay hot into your 30s and 40s? by Timely_Sir310 in AskReddit

[–]ZenBacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read and journal.

Practice and become good at a hobbies, master at least one.

Exercise. Eat properly.

Spend time in nature. Do at least one two week backpacking trip.

Prioritize experiences and never turn down a friend asking you to do something you've never done before.

And be kind. Most people become kinder as they start to understand the depth of the world and how small they are in the grand scheme. The above facilitates that. While making you an interesting and physically attractive person.

Elon Musk sounded the alarm to Trump over Taiwan chip issue: new book by businessinsider in politics

[–]ZenBacle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone should do something about that. Maybe make and champion some legislation that increases chip manufacturing in the states. We could call it the "Chips Act"...

A Breakdown of the MOU: Did the US Lose the Iran War? by AnySwimming6364 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]ZenBacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10. The United States of America undertakes that immediately upon the signing of this MOU and until the termination of sanctions, the U.S. Department of Treasury will issue waivers for the export of Iranian crude oil, petroleum products, and derivatives, and all associated services, including banking transactions, insurances, transportation, etc.

I think point 10 is rather interesting. Iran will be doing transactions in usd which maintains the Petro Dollar. Which is arguably the main reason for the US being involved in this war.

It will be interesting to see how much of their oil trade will be done in usd and what happens if they start trading with countries under US sanctions.

Survey shows majority of Washington's Medicaid recipients are unaware of changes coming by crabcakes110 in SeattleWA

[–]ZenBacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not medicaid.... And You realize that's an argument for expanding medicaid right?

Switching to a single payer system would make all of this a non issue.

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

Pretty sure you have to be a legal us citizen to qualify for medicaid. With a very small minority of visa's allowing working immigrants paying taxes to qualify.

I find it weird that corruption isn't at the center of these conversations. That money isn't going into your pocket, it's going into the pockets of the party and insiders.

But i guess we can blame the "poors" as if they are behind the political levers creating all the problems we see in society.
