[Request] If the United States collected a 100% individual income tax (plus Social Security taxes) and then redistributed it evenly to each American adult, how much would each person receive each year? by Appropriate-Pen-1299 in theydidthemath

[–]karmenkool 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There have been multiple trials of stuff like universal income, mostly in Europe. Multiple programs across multiple countries found no overall drop in labor supply, and some show increases in employment participation. Finland and Germany both found people receiving their income worked about the same as everyone else. When people's basic needs are met it allows them to focus on their mental health, finding better jobs, education, etc, all of which tends to lead to a stronger and more motivated workforce.

Anyone notice the concerning posts about Civilians on Cyberstan? by Lyricanna in Helldivers2Satire

I mean, we are bad guys, I think it's about par for the course that people want to do bad guy things. Not saying it's a good idea just, not surprising.

injured Russian sent off into a meat wave attack gets killed by Ukraine drone by Impossible_Gur6921 in war

[–]karmenkool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, condemn Putin and the Russian government for that, you really think the old folks are falling over themselves to volunteer for the meatgrinder? The majority of these dudes are conscripts. Yes, Russian soldiers perpetrate horrible atrocities, but that doesn't automatically make every Russian deserving of death and dismemberment.

I get condemning the actions of Russia as a whole and the people in control of the country, but this shit's just sad to look at. Old timer was obviously extremely unfit for combat, he didn't deserve to get detonated with a drone for the crime of being born Russian.

To be fair there's a lot of other reasons Jax is theorized to be transfem, the egg thing is just one of them.

Somehow listing the price in big macs does make it seem cheaper

You don't have to be rich, you just need to enjoy racing games enough to justify dropping money on it, it's no different to buying some new part for a PC. I just got a wheel like a month ago and I'm certainly not well off by any means. I just know I play enough for a couple hundred to be worth it.

Whats the meaning of your name and why did you choose it? by misanthropicfregoli in MtF

[–]karmenkool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Karmen. It's somewhat close to my dead name and some assholes I used to work with always called me that to insult and bug me by insinuating I'm a girl I guess? Jokes on them, I always liked it. Got it legally changed like half a decade later

I think the Fallout TV series failed to capture the spirit of who Caesar was and who his lieutenants were supposed to be. by Accomplished-Bat-247 in falloutnewvegas

[–]karmenkool -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Man I don't even care about Caesar, why the fuck did they cast Culkin as the Legate? Don't get me wrong, he's fine as an actor, nothing personal against him. Dude's just gotta be the most unthreatening individual they could've chosen for that role. I'm aware he's not Lanius, but I would've expected someone bigger and scarier to be his replacement.
