only problem is that once we're standing on the ashes and we're looking to breed with anyone who hasn't whored themselves out, the only ones left will be asian women

2019-04-09 21:53:58 UTC  

it is what i was referencing lol

2019-04-09 21:54:26 UTC  

Don't count on the Asian girls to save you

2019-04-09 21:54:28 UTC  

rag i bet you 1000 dorrah at least one of those girls are underage

2019-04-09 21:54:44 UTC  

Japanese and most of SE Asia have a more relaxed attitude when it comes to sex

2019-04-09 21:56:47 UTC  

also i do not want a retard who is so adamantly anti-gun being president

2019-04-09 21:57:08 UTC  

it's one thing when you vote for someone who at least has the facade of supporting gun rights, and then they betray that notion

2019-04-09 21:57:17 UTC  

it is another when they are already saying what they'll do to diminish your rights

2019-04-09 21:58:10 UTC  

he tweeted he's going to fund the UBI by fining gun companies 1 million dollars every time someone innocent dies from their guns

2019-04-09 21:58:33 UTC  

at least, i saw an image for it. i cannot confirm if its true as i don't use twitter

2019-04-09 21:58:49 UTC  

which is retarded and would actually be a ton of work to do

2019-04-09 21:58:59 UTC  

unless the government just becomes even more tyrannical and issues out fines like free candy

2019-04-09 21:59:08 UTC  

oh boy

2019-04-09 21:59:21 UTC  

sounds a lot like my country

2019-04-09 21:59:22 UTC  

because if they did it in a proper way, it'd be a whole lot of paperwork and take a long time

2019-04-09 21:59:40 UTC  

except the money goes to the politicians pockets instead of the country

2019-04-09 22:00:09 UTC  

also that would set up a very ugly precedent, where individual responsibility is diminished further and entities take on that burden

2019-04-09 22:00:35 UTC  

it'd lead to more regulation not just in the gun industry but the whole economy

2019-04-09 22:01:10 UTC  

at best, yang is a foolish idealist who has no footing in reality

2019-04-09 22:01:16 UTC  

at worst he is doing this all with malicious intent

2019-04-09 22:01:54 UTC  

i am a bit of an idealist, but i also try to stay grounded because it is easy to just be lost in the world of the ideal

2019-04-09 22:01:58 UTC  

that's right. by fining the companies, you're effectively saying that the guns are at fault and not the gun user

2019-04-09 22:02:39 UTC  

yes

2019-04-09 22:02:48 UTC  

and that will be applied to other products, because why wouldn't it?

2019-04-09 22:03:09 UTC  

it is one thing when it is a civil lawsuit against a company

2019-04-09 22:03:16 UTC  

it is another when it is the government itself dishing out these fines

2019-04-09 22:04:00 UTC  

it also elevates the role of government to judge

2019-04-09 22:53:22 UTC  

Too many people think “automation” will just appear over night. So their solution is government money to support unemployment.

2019-04-09 23:00:35 UTC  

Or laws to slow down technology.

2019-04-09 23:05:58 UTC  

Automated trucking, like what was mentioned in the video, is something we know is desired. It’s currently a long way off though. With that in mind, the trucking industry should be looking into compensating for that shift when it happens.

2019-04-09 23:06:27 UTC  

Obviously the first wave of self driving trucks will be incredibly expensive and out of reach for most businesses.

2019-04-09 23:18:05 UTC  

Shit most tech we have now was once incredibly expensive

2019-04-09 23:18:11 UTC  

I think the best policy is for the government to allow/encourage businesses to progress everywhere so that when that “sudden” change happens, millions of people aren’t out of work.

2019-04-09 23:18:17 UTC  

Yeah that’s true.

2019-04-09 23:18:31 UTC  

Adjusted for inflation a black and white 13 inch TV costs more than a 70 inch 4K smart TV

2019-04-09 23:21:31 UTC  

Phones did the same thing.

2019-04-09 23:37:44 UTC  

@Andrules A fully automated industry will put a lot of people out of work. Sure, new jobs will come out of that, but the goal is to have a society where people don't need to work as hard. 1k a month helps get people on their feet. I know it sounds unrealistic, and Yang is definitely ahead of his time.

2019-04-09 23:38:06 UTC  

But this isn't something that is 'unrealistic' in the future.

2019-04-09 23:38:25 UTC  

I mean, people thought electricity was sorcery once. People thought Y2k and shit.

2019-04-09 23:40:57 UTC  

I don't think anyone thought electricity was magic. It's a relatively recent discovery.

2019-04-09 23:41:39 UTC  

Y2K bug made sense, because no computer had ever seen a millennial change
