I'm new to this platform and can't tell if I already replied to this or not.

I totally understand and agree with your point. In case I already replied to this I'll just give my short answer.

If I could snap my finger and magically make a perfect capitalist system (or socialist for that matter) no corruption or greed. Starting absolutely fresh and right with the perfect principles in place for the system... And also all of us people started fresh, well rested, well fed, thinking clearly...

I think people would still buy the cheapest chocolate and ignore the slaves, they'd still shop at Walmart, and I'd still book the cheap airline ticket and complain I have no leg room, and a handful of super rich elites would quickly regain literally all the power.

You absolutely nailed it on the head with everything thing you said, that's exactly why I don't call out system true capitalism. I also agree the lives we are forced to live prevent us from having time to sort this stuff out.

I just don't think we'd be less lazy (myself included) even if we did have the time and energy. I feel the same problem in both systems.

1)good idea

2. revaluation

3. get lazy

4. back to essentially where we started.

Infrastructure doesn't necessarily mean roads. Although I haven't heard of anyone using this money to make public transportation better I have heard stories of cities using this money to improve pedestrian and bike infrastructure.

That's not reasonable to assume. Let me prove it?

Are you Food Safety Certified from a credited organization? No?

Then obviously your cooking must be poisonous.

I however am food safety certified. I cannot cook at all. Suck at cooking. I do know proper temps, and how to store food. I still cannot cook.

Having a license only PROVES you know the rules. Having one doesn't mean your GOOD at thing or even that you will FOLLOW the rules. It just proves you KNOW the rules.

Likewise not having a license doesn't mean you DONT know the rules or WONT follow the rules. It only means you haven't proven to a licensing body that you do.

I don't have a medical license, but I know you shouldn't take opioids every day of your life or you'll get addicted to them. Clearly many doctors did not know that or did not care.

Edit: hell one more fun one.

When I was in school we had a state issued standardized test called the TAAS test. I got a perfect score every single year. Got every single question in the entire test, every category, correct. 100 percent.

However I was failing most of my classes. Did I know the material or did I not? One certificate said I exceptional and perfect, the other certificate says I was far below my peers.

Which one was right?

I don't own a bike. I walk and drive.

I know! I told the Team lead id be in at 2. That's when I was scheduled and that's when I'm coming in. It's not my fault Becky got septic gonorrhea again. I'm going to sell my drones, and then I'll be there at my SCHEDULED time. Don't give me any of that "team player" bullshit either. All that "team playin" you managers have been doing is why everyone keeps getting septic gonorrhoea. So maybe focus more on your z-pack and get off of my back. How bout that.

If you need a drone tho I got you 10 a piece. Price break at 20. Brand new. Predator anti-personal. Can't resell them to Ukraine tho. I'm not pro Russia I just got beef with Zelensky. Owe him some money, don't want him to know I'm out here hustlin. Hit me up.

Edit: if you do want a drone maybe rub some of those z-pack anti bios on the bills tho. Don't need any of the Becky shit. I just got back with my baby momma you know and all she asked is "no more girls, no more drones, no more polyhedron with a surface areas greater than 30^2 centimeters on the larger faces " so we got keep this real down low, you feel me. You know how hard it was to get my kid back bro, so I got to keep this super light, no joke.

It's one of many easy things we could've done but didn't do. If you want a complete answer you can Google it. I said I don't have the time to list it all here but the information is easily available.

Pointing out I can disagree with someone's ideas and still recognize when they are being very reasonable.

capitalists that are less so.

Ah the ol' "you're stupid" rebuttal. Works every time. Automatic win in every debate lol

I'm a capitalist. The person you are responding to sounded very reasonable.

"the US doesn't like"

That's very true. The us does not like north Korea. That isn't saying north Korea is good. It's just saying there are motives at play to make north Korea look as bad as possible.

If I said Jeffrey Epstein was a cannibal, you can say "no he wasn't" without thinking he was a good person.

As long as you don't ask any questions... I got you. Meet me beside the dumpster at wendys. I prefer to be paid directly in drugs but cash app is fine to.

One day he will rule, I hope he lets us live.

Sure wink and oddly enough spark plug cleaner smells a lot like perfume wink

I got you bro.

I love that part of the internet.

Kinda like "guy code"

"Was said he was with you last night"

"Yep, all night. Cleaned the spark plugs in my car and drained the blinker fluid. Couldn't have done it without him "

But instead it's "parent code"

"Yeah fortnight is closed. They close it so everyone can get a good night's sleep and be ready for the morning!"

I was going to tell a personal story about telling my son McDonald's was closed when I was broke or in a hurry but it reminded me of another cute store.

My son broke his arm in a McDonald's once. Hyper extended his elbow. Got a couple pins.

Anyway a year or so later they completely remodeled that McDonald's.

We drove by the demolished building during the remodel and my son shouted "that's what you get for breaking my arm! Who's broken now!"

Adorable vengeance served adorably cold.
