I don’t think so. My point is that ‘the first American woman to win a medal in curling’ just doesn’t get the clicks. But unless she has a rich dad or husband paying the bills, the fact she has a job is quite obvious. I haven’t read the article, but aside from the title, there probably isn’t much in there about her actual work. Maybe i’m too cynical. Great for all the lab techs they get a shout out, i guess.

Wow the first lab tech to win a medal! What’s next? Someone else with a job because they can’t live off being one of the best in their sport? Good for her though, don’t mean any disrespect, being the best in something is quite the achievement.

We have to tax the rich, even if we paid all the debt, we still have to tax the rich. This is required for justice, this is required for people to love their country, this is required to stop poverty, homelessness.
Totally agree
When we have a just society people are going to help their country willingly
It surely helps when people feel proud of supporting their countries healthcare, pensions, education etc but i don’t think it will eliminate the narcisistic greed of the typical billionaire.

So, the govn can pay it right away.
No offense but i think you should learn a bit about more about economics, specifically about how currency works. Long story short, if a currency loses a lot of value in comparison to other currencies, the ‘local’ system collapses. So the very important task of a government (or its central bank really) is to keep it’s relative value high (not too high, but that’s a story for another day. The us gov (or the Federal Reserve in this case) would fail very very hard if they would decide to create 38 trillion usd. It is especially problematic considering the financial problems that it would cause are on top of all the other shit that’s going on.

- Comment on Denominator, go Mercator 4 weeks ago:
but that was just Mercator playing a trick upon me
Nearly every projection that show the entire globe on a 2d canvas will show you a map where the horizontal distance is almost double the vertical distance, so it is very correct that a journey from the top to the bottom is much shorter than from the most left to the most right.
- Comment on Denominator, go Mercator 4 weeks ago:
Crossing the globe north to south is the same distance as east to west, but since it is folded open on 2d maps it looks as if the earth is wider then it is higher. In this projection that means the map is stretched more horizontally than vertically, if i understand correctly.

I recognised this problem years ago and decided to also let them eat bugs in plain sight. Unfortunately my house isn’t big enough to counter evolution on my own, but I feel there is more people out there who also stopped killing spiders because of this.
