I wonder about what all the industries that die with the boomers is going to be. Stamp collecting, HAM radio, Harleys, and so on. What's the full list gonna end up being?
Ridiculous mechanical watches that you buy "for the next generation".

Some people in the office where talking about Trump and friends recent thing about tightening up food stamps restrictions even further.. I overheard someone say "I think its great! It'll make em get a job and pay for their own poo poo!"

:(

Having been a benefactor of SNAP one time in my life, it bothers me to hear people say poo poo like that. Why do so many have that mentality?
What pisses me off the most here is the kindergarten understanding of the job market as this nebulous force dispensing work for anybody willing to do whatever. Having never grown out of expecting to get paid for chores, boomers would love to live in the Soviet Union

But nope. It was a catastrophe (somehow) and they could never let it happen again, so they moved the money to a restricted education only fund that barely keeps up with inflation.

is there any reason at all that Xi can't just literally do nothing and wait Trump out as things get worse and worse for actual Americans, knowing that our government is incapable of helping non-rich people in any way and wouldn't be willing to do so even if it was?

Also a total monster who explained that his plan was to set up a horror movie plot where he made his house look well-stocked and abandoned to draw people in, and that he'd pop out of trap doors to murder them in their sleep and take their stuff.

Landowners seem to have a shared fetish of setting up traps for the have-nots :thunk:

the two questions that i've found will leave a free-market libertarian sputtering and speechless:
1. If the government can pay police to protect us from crime, why shouldn't the government pay doctors to protect us from disease?
2. What is the mechanism that makes free markets efficient?
Some of the Euro libertarians would just honestly say "evolution/survival of the fittest" to both questions (can't have conscious actors interfering with free trade and resource ownership - disease is fine, it makes humanity stronger; markets become efficient through repeated culling of people too weak to run businesses), the fact they're still getting some votes means there are people who will still cling to their views even if you expose their base, abhorrent core :smith:

They're deliberately trying to invoke a specific mental image, but these are still just landowners using underpaid immigrant labor to do the actual farming; guess who gets hosed first in the event of a "bankruptcy"

yeah that really really really broke their minds

I’d just say “knelling is a sign of respect ???” but it would get no where lol

like kneeling is literally respectful hahah
Maybe that's the actual problem they have? Like encountering people who don't drink or smoke and projecting feelings of superiority onto them. For your entire life standing up was enough, now someone's hacked the system, found a way to be even more respectful. If you don't chase them out, you're now the unpatriotic one!

lmao of course it's just dark skin bad

tbf most Democrats still believe their party is guided by some invisible master plan to gradually work towards a Swedish-style social democracy even having lived through the past 30 years so it's not just the reactionary mind that reacts to new information by retreating into a comforting fantasy world
