Murgos posted:I'm confused. Are there neighborhoods where people don't live? Well, the fundamental conceit of their argument is that the presence of smaller, more affordable housing devalues their own, despite their own home being presumably much larger and nicer, with a bigger property. It's more than slightly insane if you think about it. You have to believe that the very presence of A Poor is an imposition on you, at that point, which is clearly sociopathic nonsense.

A house is an Investment so it's bad when values go down, because you are devaluing your equity. It is also bad when values go up, because property taxes go up. It's important that nothing ever change.

I guess, to be devil's advocate, the presence of more affordable housing in a desirable place does reduce the premium people are willing to pay to live in that desirable place, but... who cares? Do you have a place to live which you can afford, and do you like living there? Good. Done; you've won, quit your bitching.

The person making the argument did not assert that the community where the people were living or where the new low income housing would be built was 'desirable,' just that it exists and therefore people can't live there.

For one shining moment, the US put aside it's objectification of the sexy assets of property. Unfortunately that was only in a non-binding letter to our king, after which we upped our obsession by 60%.

Last page, but is there some link to the actual bills? Illinois surprised me and I can’t find anything on an anti-trans bill in this state. ACLU currently has 0 anti-LGBTQ legislation proposed. If Illinois has a bill proposed, it’s probably one guy and it’s going absolutely nowhere.

Popper slammed on his brakes and, seconds later, started shooting. The shooter initiated the situation by driving like a complete rear end in a top hat, then escalated it intentionally by break-checking the tailgating car. Dude pulled out his gun in anticipation of the other car passing him. How the gently caress was he not convicted?

Plus if someone is severely alcohol dependant, a couple of days in hospital without booze can be very dangerous for them. And you can't always tell who goes home and has a case of beer every night just by looking at them.

Drug interactions and chance of Alcohol delirium are the biggest reasons. Tobacco too, but that's more about post-op recovery. Quitting (or pausing) smoking/vaping for a surgery and recovery improves your chances of wounds healing properly. Less wound infections and other problems. (Also we have nicotine patches for the worst tobacco junkies, that can't/won't stop)

You don't really know a 100% of the time if someone needs to be cut open or not, so one might ask these questions. Which you claimed the Finnish health care system does not do, and which has now been directly contradicted by a worker in the self-same system.
