How is a tower at Rutherford hill not already a thing? I thought there used to be a lease at the mall decades ago?

How is this different from previously?

The legislation enjoys support from the business community and building trades, who testified to Parliament that it can take longer to get projects approved than to get them built.

Is there supposed to be something wrong with that? The project and its effects will last far longer than both combined.

Of course not. Pick the one that’s most likely going to get elected. Or if that’s R and you can’t bring yourself to be involved in R politics, primary the D.

The point is that this isn’t something that should be limited to a single party.

Believe it or not, not everyone on Lemmy who’s in the US votes D across the board.

”They'll avoid encounters and conflict with people as much as they can. And so we just need to do our part and respect that."

If only the same could be said about politicians.

In the time it takes for all this to play out, all the farmers could recoup their potential losses and then some by replacing their JD investment with Kubota, who supports independent repair shops.

Of course, with the debt load most farmers carry, that’s easier said than done.

If the federal government set up a replacement program though, and shipped all the JD machinery to Ukraine where hackers know how to modify the software, everyone but JD would win.
