The OCP building was in Dallas Texas though, the City Hall. Not a skyscraper: just the bottom was real.

My daughter has friends who live practically at the edge of it, and nobody wants to be anywhere near a mock battle zone.

Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

I talked to my daughter last night, it turns out that she knew the boy who was shot, "Tort" (short for "the little turtle"). She didn't know him well, had only met him a couple of times, but one of her friends knew him somewhat better. She said that he was mid-20s, gay, and a total pacifist who regularly told people "No violence! We can't be like them!"

A group of them were camped out in "the Forest" (as they called that area), and he was shot in his sleeping bag inside his tent, from the outside. The police said that they had heard a shot, but there were no guns found in the area.

It's a difficult road for pacificists, but Ghandiji did it, boycott industries (homespun).

equivalently, if young people today stopped eating/using animal products, that would erode a huge chain of capital going towards today's worst climate/ political influencers.
