its not like oh his leg doesnt work well so he cant work at all

my understanding is that person would not get any aid, because he can work

the current system is if you can work, even if you are messed up, no aid. You have to be so messed up you cannot work, to get full aid.

so a binary

i mean my mom has cerebral palsy and got SS but not the full amount someone that was completely unable to work got.

really? Hmm. Never heard of that, I've heard of differences caused by ssi vs ssdi...

You can be deemed incompetent by the state and get a lot, incompetentcy can just be idiocy which is terrible in my opinion. Should just be mental handicaps

That is another thing, mental health is a major issue that just gets band aids on it.

sure, but a lot of that is still not well understood, and is a lot of trial by error.

doesn't mean nothing should be done, ofc.

That's the thing, is it should be worked towards being well understood

NO, we need the perfect solution... Reeee

the brain isnt really fully understood tho so mental issues are harder to deal with

of course then theres the generation coming up that thinks they have every condition in the book and just make it harder to understand what causes each condition and how to treat it

That's the thing, there is not as big a push to get better understanding as their should be

Where should the push be taking place that it isn't?

I mean, is it at the pay/funding level, the science/technology level, etc.

I would say those are included

Even just implementing what is known

Still not sure where you think the push should be happening that it's not. Implementing what is known?

Unicorn Riot called the Portland protests' Patriot Prayer alt-right 🤔

Pretty sure they're just christian right...

But fuck that, anyone you disagree with is alt-right, right?

unicorn riot was streaming from portland

I remember them from Justice4Jamar

I thought anyone who wasn't a socialist was considered alt-right nowadays, including the moderate left and centrists?

Many people don't know how to manage their mental disorders, and people around them don't know how to look for it or manage it either.

So, what do you want to happen? You want people to be more educated or care more?

Yes

for one

How do you plan for that to happen?

Generally awareness campaigns is what is used for that

oh

Have they not had those or are they not working?

There is a mental health awareness month, I don't think it has been as effective as it needs to be.

I guess there needs to be more or better activist and lobbyist groups to be more effective.

Perhaps less negativity associated with treatment.

Sure, you do not want people who have issues to be afraid of getting treatment.

Then there is the issue of funding. And that goes into healthcare argument.

Well the issue with healthcare is that people care more about healthcare insurance than they do healthcare.

I think it's a complicated issue.

It is.

everyone is cover ing this

Guy who assaulted Jeremy causing more people to see him

Is this real? Apparently in Australia a new law was released where you have to give a little speech acknowledging your "white privilege" before treating an aboriginal patient.

https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/australian-nursing-and-midwifery-code-of-conduct-slammed-over-white-privilege/news-story/4d1d71f45af35b8ffdd25fd40804d5a3

Can anyone confirm whether this is actually real?

I would not doubt it... hope it's fake though

saw videos on it but the sheer ludicrousness of it makes me wonder

ya, the agenda driven censorship on the cartel of tech giants is now hard to not see. All the "alternative" tech platforms will likely see an increase.

After seeing how Lauren Southern was treated in Australia, I've lost a lot of respect.

I didn't know Australia was that bad. I thought it was only EU/US

But looks like they're in the white guilty wave

Anyone here worried about how governments dependencies on oil causes the to make major sacrifices?

whats a sacrifice

idk, i guess Iran deal one example

letting imports of oil be used as leverage

one man's sacrifice is another man's opportunity

U.S. relationship with Saudi Arabia

Europe involvement for building a pipeline

Well, we certainly don't owe any country any loyalty when it comes to spending. We'll choose our economic allies as we see fit.

still our need for oil is a weakness

can be used as leverage

Its just like any other object we rely on. No different than our trade agreements with China and other third world exporter that make things cheaper for us here. We can't go back.

what?

can't go back to what?

the whole quality american made stuff, or euro made stuff. its just luxury items at this point. our economy is built on the back of 99c store items shipped from China and India

Thats a weakness too.

I don't think as big of a weakness

However even there

automation can help alleviate that dependence

I happen to think so. We have oil reserves and can import it from other countries though it would be more expensive than the middle east. But if the goods countries seized production or conglomerated against us (which won't really happen, just using it as an example) we'd be hurt more I think.

I guess I was thinking more of that it is easier to reduce dependency on oil than it is other goods.

Its not really the automation but the scale and resources needed

Hey

Eh, they've been saying its easy to curtail oil usage for 20 years or so now. We;ve had all sorts of bubbles and nothings stuck

solar almost got there if it werent for the crash but maybe that's just something to blame it on. maybe it wasn't going anywher

it was certainly expensive.

I like nuclear

Me too

Interesting

this is smart. ban everyone that you dont agree with. cuz liberalism
