Doing something because it’s the “most economical” is why we have a climate catastrophe on our hands. Plus solar can’t actually provide steady power on it’s own and never will be able to. Exotic nation wide energy storage solutions do not exists at our current level of technology. Instead solar/wind has to be offset by natural gas power plants.

Indeed and they have to be. However an overly cautious evacuation order isn’t really a big deal. It should be improved, and learned upon, but lots of government needs improvement.

If you want privacy and you drive a car, I got bad news for you. Public Transit is privacy.

Emanuel is a veteran Washington insider, having served three Democratic presidents. He holds a reputation as a high-energy political operative who often uses colorful and profane language.

Sounds like the perfect man for the job of ensuring that nothing changes for the better within the DNC.

Withdrawing from NATO, I could see Trump entertaining that (wouldn’t actually happen).

Fire a bunch of the top leadership? For sure. That would both be something Trump could “order the military to do,” as well as something he might do, and it would also harm the US military’s capability to wage war.

Zero out Pentagon funding? Not possible for trump to do alone, but depending on the congressional make up, it could be done and would severely limit the ability of the US Military to wage war. They could even do it without affecting enlisted personnel enrollment. The Pentagon has their own funding 100% separate from military spending.

Could also deny all future discretionary spending for the military/pentagon.

Disband 20% of it’s career leadership.

Zero out pentagon funding.

Withdraw from NATO.

The more cynical among us might view this as a racket. . . Despite his electoral face-plant, he became an influencer touring the country for the Harris campaign. The Texas Democratic Party is replete with “organizers” such as these, who seem always to fail upward.

Oh word?

Replace Jewish with Israeli, or Zionist, and you are 100% accurate about what is happening.

Nah, much like democrats use minorities for their kayfabe social issues, republicans use “family values” or “religion,” the donors, the unelected de-facto party leaders never cared about those things.

The democrats eagerness to support genocide is obvious. Though unfortunately for them, support for genocide isn’t a key differentiator when it comes to winning elections.

It was all Hillary people. Why the DNC keeps hiring hillary and her people? Well Hillary owns the DNC. It’s a private corporation that has private share-holders and their product is ballot access for the Democratic party.

If you want to run as a democrat for almost any office in the entire country you have to go through the DNC.

On the plus side maybe we will start hearing about the horrors at the US Border that magically stopped in november 2020.

We knew that 6 years ago when they continuously floated Harris as the next big thing. She even used the classic hillary policy about “Student loan forgiveness for entrepreneurs who operate a business in a disadvantaged neighborhood for 3 years.”

Harris was Hillary’s next in line before the 2016 election had started.

This isn’t correct political reasoning. Primary voters ARE NOT general voters. As an aside, the primary is just a fiction the major parties use to give their candidates legitmacy. The outcome of a primary doesn’t matter what-so-ever and the candidate could get zero votes from people like me or you and still legally be on the ballot. For example, Harris.

Correct. But in Oregon if you got 400k people to vote for someone else besides Biden in 2020, then your votes would have counted enough to shift the state. If you got ~1.2million people to support the PSL or something, you could have ensured that Oregon could have gone to a non-genocide party in 2020.

These are the presidential candidates on the Oregon Ballot.

Kamala Harris / Tim Walz (D)
Donald Trump / J.D. Vance (R)
Randall Terry (no running mate) (Constitution Party)
Chase Oliver / Mike ter Maat (L)
Jill Stein / Butch Ware (Pacific Green Party)
Cornel West (no running mate) (Progressive Party)
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. / Nicole Shanahan (We the People)

I don’t agree with Cornel West on everything, but I’m pretty sure he is anti-genocide, same as Jill Stein.

Additionally while federal electoralism is a waste of time, building socialism can be supported at the local level, so certainly do that.

Here in Chicago I’m voting for my teachers union supported school board members, preventing capitalism from further ruining public schooling.

It’s done intentionally. If you want a wired mouse, you can buy one of thousands of wired mice and use those. If you want a wireless mouse, it doesn’t need to and shouldn’t be plugged in while you are using it.

Death to Israel. However Iran is as big a threat to Israel as the average US citizen. They should probably work on reforming their government from a strongman theocracy to something closer to china. Having a “spiritual leader” is alone worthy ridicule, and revoking of international recognition.

I agree. But it’s also not a given that the US despite it’s huge amount of resources, people, historical investment, and fiat currency can only produce 12 missiles a year and that is the hard limit without impossible investment.

Just in time manufacturing addresses warehousing issues, it does not have any affect on maximum capacity. If a machine can produce 1000/widgets an hour, but I can run it for 10minutes a day to produce 167 widgets to meet my line on the demand curve while saving on warehouse costs, then that is what I’m going to do. Additionally I’ll restructure my workers so that instead of needing 100 workers for 8hrs to produce 8000 widgets a day, I’ll simply hire 16 workers ( or more likely 2 workers plus 10 part-time workers) to produce 167 widgets in a day. I don’t spend any time or effort creating a machine that can only run for 10minutes a day and produce only 167 widgets.

The capacity of my widget machine is still 8000/day.

e: Or more likely, I’ll be creating 167 widgets for raytheon at 3x profit, I’ll be creating 20 widgets for north korea at 4x profit, and 4000 widgets for the NCCCP as that is part of their 20 year plan.
