Gvbament Shutdn'

We have 51x presidents in this country. That's kinda why nothing ever gets done.


BENEFITS of our system: It is more resilient to the "Worst ideas" like mass solar/electric vehicles/wind buildout, Which are just fossil-fuel-derivative technologies, etc.


CONS to our system: Extremely expensive, inefficient,  Infrastructure maintenance costs insurmountable because every party/state involved wants a cut.


What the shutdown will do.

Immediate effect, lower demand, as millions of workers and adjacent workers go unpaid or laid off.

Deepen recession on everything outside of the AI-tech-bubble.

It just about cruelty and diddling.

[tp4tissue]

Well, yes, but the cruelty part, 

Throughout democrat's reigns, they themselves codified most of the problems which led to the scummy insurance coporations being run.


So, they were never, and ARE never going to fix that, they're in on the take. 

MAYBE,, and Tp4 says MAYBE,  AOC has a genuine desire to give people medicine, we know BERNIE certainly does, he's the only real Jesus character out there.

But the REST of the demopoops are identical to their re****ican'ts counterparts.   

[Computer-Lab in Basement]

the REST of the demopoops are identical to their re****ican'ts counterparts.   

I wouldn't go THAT far, but I would agree that they are part of the problem.

We need a new party, run by LOGIC instead of MONEY

[tp4tissue]

That's one of those "ideals" we put on paper, but it fails in practice, because there are no singular constructs of power absent #numerical accounting of some form.


You take the numbers away, they'll move to gifts, or land, or prostitutes.


It makes no difference,  the Ponzi scheme isn't really a scheme, it's the DEFAULT of human-affairs.



Don't get too hung up on how the game is played,  this is PROBABLY the only way it Can-Be-Played,  millions of years of evolution,  you're not going to hit people over the head with  Words on a Page and change that   SOON-Enough for it to make a difference.


What we need to agree on isn't discontent over Rigged economies.

What we need to agree on is the END OF ANIMAL AGRICULTURE.   It is the singular MOST DESTRUCTIVE act perpetrated by MANKIND on our Bio-Sphere.

We feed 21 calories to a Cow, to produce 1 calorie.  THIS doesn't even account for Fossil Energy inputs in farming.

Animal agriculture uses the MOST non-ice-Dry-landmass on the planet earth (43% of it, IPCC data), the Opportunity cost is Natural Forests and Soil which sequester CARBON to the tune of 3x the total emitted by the Industrial Revolution till now.


IF THAT  DEFICIT is not fixed, the EXTINCTION HAMMER WILL FALL...



Politics is what it is,   TP4 just wants mankind TO LIVE.


Humans won't eat a vegetable to save their own life, let-along each other's, this species experiment is probably over.

Johnson went on to praise Russ Vought, saying that "He gets to decide now what services are essential, what programs and policies should be continued, and which would not be a priority for taxpayers."
