   You realize that most protests that block roads are on roads that they're not permitted to be on, right?

   A majority of the country has wanted legal weed for ~12 years now, so I wouldn't put too much stock in the American government representing the actual desires and interests of the population.

   Does this account for how much those companies offload to contractors / staffing agencies?

   Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how those both hold up in the courts. The LTC tax is along these lines as well (while also being fairly regressive because literally everyone with any meaningful income is going to opt out of it).

   I actually hadn't heard of it before this thread, myself, so ++ on everyone getting to learn something here. :)

   I mean the biggest driver of this is not anything to do with Seattle specifically, but instead the State's constitutional prohibition on an income tax, which forces cities and counties to use more regressive tax methods.

   I get where you're coming from, but I think it's reasonable to realize frustration that the person you were originally responding to may have had with OP stating unequivocally that 'Cannabinoid system' is quackery withou

    So many people in the comments are making the exact same willfully ignorant argument that creationists make about evolution ("see, it's just a theory!") about the term of art "scientific consensus".

    This isn't slightly tangential, it's a ridiculous assertion. Fossil fuel transportation is, for most people, the sole accessible mechanism of transportation. Because someone believes in human-driven climate change, they shouldn&#x

    Yeah, the author of that opinion piece is a fossil fuel shill. He even openly admits in the article: "Even if 97% of climate scientists agreed with this, and even if they were right, it in no way, shape, or form would imply that we sho

    The conspiracy theory is that she actually worked for the CIA, I'm very much not claiming that. I don't think it's even remotely conspiratorial to think that she was known to them.

    Community organizer that went to a school that literally brags about having former CIA agents as staff on its faculty? Yeah, I think AOC was on their radar.

    The means of distribution (or as you call it, the means of logistics) is part of the means of production, yeah. The mechanism by which products of labor are moved throughout the world is just as much a part of the means of production as any
