I know this is a serious issue for Canadians, but I can't help but laugh my ass off at the fact that you literally have an American-Prohibition-Era "Big Dairy" cartel that fucking extorts the little guy through government int

It's a good thing he absolutely insists on being sesquipedalian, because it limits his audience. He seems to fancy himself as Tech Faulkner; I'd rather be Tech Hemingway.

The system isn't a necessary evil, its merely too big to topple by outside forces. The insiders have no incentive to bring the system down because of the myriad benefits to which it provides them. For every one insider who legitimately

In regards to point 1: A safe driver who knows the area well and has an immaculate vehicle should be allowed to set their own rate. You talk about "customers having no idea what a trip will cost" like that isn't a supremely

You can't do anything about it because we don't genetically enhance children. Yet. As of two years ago, we mapped out about 2000 genes that contribute to intelligence. A decade ago, we knew of 100. Another decade or two from now,

Well look, if all this is becoming The Expanse, I'd like to make my way to the Ring Gate to a new world sooner rather than later. I find the idea of exploring strange new worlds far more enticing than getting my 1400 credits, or even w

It's the same old shit, hansor... no one considers a problem to be "their" problem, right up until it becomes their problem.

Yeah that's a good idea. Climb onto your roof, onto a notoriously slippery surface, to "clean" said surface off the roof (how exactly are they to do that...?). That way you can slip on the snow and fall onto not just the snow

Neither of those will happen. People, whether they're billionaires or are making just $80,000 a year, resent having to take care of others, even if those "others" are without a job through literally no fault of their own. Thi

Well there you go, you've identified the problem. We've confused "want" for "need". If you make $100,000 a year, you can't afford a $600,000 home. Too bad, so fucking sad. More people need to be told this,

Well it isn't realistic. For about a year I dated a forensic accountant with a Ph.D. whose job it was to untangle and uncook books. We got on the subject of mortgages. She said you should never buy a home that costs more than double yo

At the moment, its hard to say... I'm loathe to say, "Nothing", but that may actually be the most correct answer. Institutions have completely squandered what little trust the public once had in them. I think we're livin

Because it's a thinly veiled desire for power and prestige? If it weren't, you'd see women lining up to become loggers, because that field is 93% male - possibly more.
