it is not a help to anyone to have more disable maga. there are plenty already.

I mean cali is about double NY but add in a few other blue states like illinois, washington, new jersey, massachusetts, and colorado and you will have more than doubled cali. and even though other blue states may not be as big any additions help make for a more robust pool. The big problem is people going to red states while young and healthy and then going to blue states if they get ill.

Yeah its like just having a nice little relaxing smoke of crack. I mean its not blue peter.

Its worldwide and it all comes down to wealth disparity. Just look at the disparity in even the top ten or 100 lists of wealthiest people and corporations. Musk is like double the person below him most of the time. That is why he can fuck things every which way and stay on top. The numbers are insane. Over a hundred people for people and market caps in trillions for corps while regular folks are trying to get by and thousandaires.

Yeah work study was scarce but honestly folks I know who got it got paid wereas in the new millenium feels like a lot of that became unpaid. Late nineties was the time I wish I took more advantage of. Fast food is a good example though. In high school it was the job no one wanted but everyone could get. minimum wage to start but if you showed up regularly, ontime and sober you generally got at least a quarter an hour more and then regular nickle raises. min wage was 4 bucks though so its not as slight as it sounds. You go to a place and ask for an application then fill it out and it was 100% getting a job in the 80's with fast food. Its actually from millenial friends that I learned that was not a thing for them. I was working in the late nineties based on my skills of knowing how to navigate windows and search the internet and they hired folks who could not really do that.

I was hoping it was exactly like human skin and they could even maybe figure out what all the various types of human skin are like for more comprehensive testing.

"Directive 2010/63/EU laid down restrictions on animal testing for the testing of cosmetics and their ingredients throughout the EU. Therefore, there is an intense search for alternatives to test the absorption and toxicity of nanoparticles from cosmetics such as sun creams. A team of researchers from Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) and the Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) in India is working on the development of skin imitations that mimic the native three-layer tissue structure and biomechanics of human skin. Such imitations can be produced using 3D printing and consist of hydrogel formulations that are printed together with living cells. The first skin models are now ready for nanoparticle testing."

Im suuuuppppeeerrr skeptical about fortune as a source but I can't read that as I don't have a subscription. I have seen the economy and I would not have wanted to start later. If anything my do over thing would have been to not to go to school so much and start earning sooner.

definately not better for millenials or gen Z. At least I would not trade forward but I would totally trade backward on my birthdate. Inheritance is great if your rich enough but for the average person it might be a slight help like downpayment on a house but is not going to help you get through day to day. If anything its a sucking away of any middle class generational wealth they managed to obtain. For many there is no inheritance option or what little there is cannot cover costs. Completely agree on co-ops and B corps.

I get the joke but the ole just in case because. internet. I meant I don't vote of more moderate democrats in the primary to get a more acceptable person on the ballot for november. I mean unless I like the more moderate one better, but not just so they can win come the general election.

im definately more hippie than punk but I did like casual and courteous slam dancing.

not to me. Sure there are some great folks but the population is large and there are equally great folks out there. We need being a politician for a bit to be an accessible thing. We definitely need guardrails for quid pro quo but if guaranteed lifetime political is the solution its not a solution. Our system should work if everyone is one termer. Heck I would like every election to have a recall ballot were the electorate can vote to recall any position they vote for. If it cresta 50% of the electorate then the position goes up for election at the next election.

economies were more cyclical then though and there we were at the height of social safety nets. In addition there was progress in societal things (civil liberties) and efficiency gains were reflected in pay. I mean what we have today is just nuts. The 2008 drop pretty much went down to the 2000 one as far as low point and outside of the market it has not been good at all except ironically for a blip around covid. 25 years is justs a nuts timespan. The great depression and ww2 were just a few years. During that time even just after the housing crash the prices were not as affordable as they were back then and honestly housing is such a major part of everyones life that it just dwarfs any other economic thing in a persons life with maybe health insurance being a competitor. I mean times were tough and yeah in some cases the mom had to pick up a job but it is nothing like the everyday reality of the last quarter decade.
