Doing recon listening to state propaganda NPR, and they had a guest on to talk about how RFK Jr. gutting the HHS was bad because "the HHS saved the government money by preventing fraud and abuse in the system with their oversight."

Okay, that might be true. But it begs the question of why is it even possible to have this fraud and abuse in the first place. Maybe we shouldn't be granting money so easily for every request for funding. That's the real problem, not the cuts to bloated institutions.

Sometimes I screw up what post I'm replying to, but I stand by my comments.

Buddy was cleaning out his tech closet and gave me a LightScribe drive and 400 blank DVDs. Guess I'll make a physical backup of my NAS now after I clean it up a bit. A full backup would be almost 1800 DVDs.

@Dan_Ramos the thing they circled said "original packaging" but that label affixed to the plastic isn't original packaging. Now, if the actual packaging has a date on it, and they covered it with the price sticker, that might be a thing.

Not that this isn't poor form by costco anyhow, and probably unlawful under some other provision.

Our current medical system.also incentives rent seeking. I mean why do you think a third of Americans are pre-diabetic while another third are diabetic not to mention half the population being obese. These things are not accidents.

Spent all morning learning network managers initrd hook detected networks are ephemeral and not only do not generate real config data but likely break duplicate interface configuration that is written to disk and hence my DNS changes get ignored.

Kikes want to raise the legal age of marriage between male white gentiles and female white gentiles to reduce the white gentile population growth rate

If you think of a broad category that doesn't fit one of these categories of arguments against the net tax payer vote, post it.

I really want to steel-man this.

Every argument I've read against the net tax payer voter system is boils down to arguments that assume: Utilitarianism is the only valid school of ethics, assuming Egalitarianism is an essential principle of democracy, the convoluted tax codes we have now must always exist, or the franchise is a fundamental right from birth for an individual in a jurisdiction; thus, all actions away from universal suffrage are a form of disenfranchisement, which is inherently bad for unexplained reasons.

Thoughts

The problem with black criminal action is once again accountability. The fact that the people can’t hold the govern accountable for their leadership responsibility is frankly frustrating. The fact that Black Lives Matter was fine, but White Lives Matter isn’t. Dividing the world culturally, now that politics has replaced religion. When people see policies of leaner sentences for blacks for horrendous crimes; law & order loses value and meaning.

It’s about the crime, not race.

The government is not the solution; it’s the problem.
