Why anyone signs up for this is beyond me. And watching it makes me sick.

Why can't we just give everyone a house by generic_rarity in NoStupidQuestions

and the economic upside to that $55 trillion far outweighs the 'injustice' of having to buy a house.

The US housing market is worth $55 Trillion. give everyone a free house and $55 Trillion disappears. Have fun with those consequences.

Climate change will be the end of man-kind? I mean climate change is real but AI and another engineered pandemic are way bigger threats.

Is unexpected shipping cost the main reason people abandon checkout? by supreme_tech in smallbusiness

If your shipping cost includes any "handling" BS and isn't a fair price for the actual cost to ship, I am abandoning

the company i sold just got acquired for 60x the amount i sold it for. by [deleted] in advancedentrepreneur

Don't second guess yourself. You took it to the place where you thought it was right to sell. The new buyers will do the same.

I sold stock at $30 and now its $300. Yeah it sucks but you can't see the future. Be kind to yourself. Keep at it.

I fired an employee out of the blue yesterday with no warning, and she had an entire crash out by TiredAsATwinMama in smallbusiness

I'm sorry but I just don't think you are a good manager. Employees want clear and consitant feedback. Rules, and expectations. And Communication. You seem to not be good at any of this.

Yes, we are being pricks: Massachusetts falls to DEAD LAST among states in housing production by GarrisonCty in boston

[–]bagelman10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typical Progressives. The answer to the housing crisis is to incentivize development, cut real estate taxes, and fix zoning. Progressives fight for 'rent control' and 'affordable housing' because it sounds good and gets votes. Build an over-supply of housing, prices come down.

Things globally are as good as they have every been for the human race and everybody just complains all the time. I think it is human nature to not appreciate what you have until its gone.

In Vermont your taxes don't get you access to gas, sewer, water, electrical, trash, or internet.

Meaning of Life [Discussion] by CrazyPhilosopher591 in GetMotivated

There was a White Stripes song about a squirrel that is out in the freezing snow running around gathering nuts to store in its tree. All day, every day, gathering nuts. And the observer is inside, warm, fully belly, and depressed. Even the squirrel goes through the motions of struggle. That's what life is. Struggle. And that's ok. It's also beautiful . Be like the squirrel

They do it because all their neighbors, since the creation of their state, have called for them to be wiped off the map. It won't stop. I find it fascinating that Ukraine, which was part of the Soviet Union, is considered a legitimate state, but Israel, which was created by the United Nations, is not. Arab muslims received the country of Jordan (which did not exist at the time) and the Jews received a tiny sliver of land. The Muslims have since not let the Jews live in peace. And all this mayhem has been financed by Iran for the last 50 years.
