TIL about RainX.
It's a water repellent coating you spray on the exterior of your car and it forces water to bead and roll off the car and you barely need your wipers.
I also found out it's anti-fog as well.
IT's dirt cheap and available at walmart. (But don't get the 2 in 1 get a glass cleaner separately.)
on pathogens that could cause massive economic damage was extensively conducted in these biolabs
report essentially shows that the endgame was to cause long-term damage to the Russian economy (particularly its massive agricultural potential).
In turn, this was supposed to cause instability in the country, possibly even a famine that could destabilize the Russian government
Who wants the next pandemic and why?
Property tax is theft
Rent is paying for someone else's property tax
Vagrancy laws force people to pay rent or property tax or make deals with someone else who pays the property tax or rent to prevent imprisonment for sleeping
Vagrancy laws force people to pay property tax or rent exclusively with money because property tax is taken by the government esclusively in government issued money
This forces everyone to be slaves to the corporate government employment complex for money

You're conflating tangible with intangible goods.
A more realistic example is:
You spend months writing a book.
It releases and it sells like hotcakes.
Ripoff Mcgee sees your book and uses AI to say the SAME shit with the same references and sells it.
Ripoff Mcgee can spend WAY more than you on marketing since he spend ZERO time writing/researching.
Because of this he gets invited on national TV and people think of him when it comes to YOUR ideas.
@shortstories @basedbagel @[email protected] Also, don't forget removing minimum wage, or probably even adding a maximum wage. A great part of the final cost goes into paying wages.
Unless you automate, which will require massive R&D costs that the consumer will need to end up paying anyway, although for the several first years only. This however, may require strong IP protection so that the investor can get a return, otherwise there will be no R&D investment.
Being broke can stress you out to the point of mental illness.
Me 5 years ago: *tire goes flat*
OMG am I going to have to skip a meal or not get gas to pay for my tire? Why me, why now?!
I'll call 5 places and see who has the best price.
Present me: *tire goes flat*
Ah well, that sucks. I'm gonna put on my spare and go to the closest tire shop.
It's kind of a pain but hey, what can you do? what's important is I'm safe.
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys freedom + peace of mind.
Jew logic
If you wave a chicken over your head and then murder it then anything else unethical you do after that become ethical
