You should have never had them in the first place. Hire fairly. Avoid [bigoted] bias in your hiring. That you had to advertise you did that meant you were not doing it in the first place. Meaning you were not treating equally and fairly.

There wasn’t much graffiti or vandalism before the 70s. I mean yeah, there was _some_ but not like it exploded from the ‘70s onwards. There were many things at play, deindustrialization began, immigration changed, youth and media depiction

This is true, but given 60 years it now has become part of the culture there. Maybe if you go out to the poorer places with SEA laborers, you can find betelnut chewers --but those are imported manual labor immigrants and not natives --thou

True, but one difference, is they allowed the culture and population to mature as they transformed from a fishing village to international port and commerce center. And, while they do bring in foreigners, they tend to be domestic maids or m

So you think voters were aware of how USAID moneys were being spent? Causing instability overseas, paying Reuters, Catholic charities, BBC, NYT, Politico, etc., for disinformation, people smuggling, etc. It's ridiculous. I'm gla

They're not being dismantled. Funding is being paused while they are audited --and the audits are showing very concerning waste, potential fraud and are being reorganized under a different department. This is a good thing. They shoul

So time to retrench and look inwardly instead of projecting power? Maybe instead of meddling in international affairs via cover NGOs, let those people work out their own problems like we did in our early republic. We don't have to be

The issue is their phrasing or presentation is that it was not direct. It was somewhat evasive. Why couldn’t they give a straight answer and tamp down the conspiracy theories at once?
