All
well we get 20% call ins every day. so no americans these days don't want to work a physical job. they want to get high and veg out .

@markcalhoun8219 my doctor joined MDVip . so now i need to pay $2100 per year to be his patient. they did do an executive level physical at the cleveland clinic so maybe it's worth it. but i can also get a same day appointment and get a hold of him on the weekend.

@Chain987 democracy requires intelligent population,. when the population is a bunch of corrupt rubes then it doesn't work so well.

russians are setting up a factory to build shahed drones in belarus only a short distance from ukraine border. this is an easy target for ukraine. maybe it's a provocation so ukraine attacks belarus and then lukashenko has to join the war by sending troops.
1
so putin starts a war that may threaten russia and his excuse is that the war threatens russia . great circular reasoning
1
yes banned by jimmy carter a nuclear engineer of all things . duh. why don't we just copy what the french do as they reprocess spent fuel into new fuel. even have them design it for us . but noooooo we have to be different and reinvent the wheel so some high priced contractors can grease some politicians hands.

so do the dutch vote for a local politician who is part of a party or does the ballot simply have the parties on the ballot? in canada you vote for a person. and if they get the most votes in that riding( district) they become the rep for that area. then the party with the most reps will become the government and the leader of that party becomes prime minister.

yes russia is a failure
1
except TRADERS who are always out to make big bucks would instantly double the price of crude in the world. it's all about what they think will happen.
1
@strigoiu13 that " eventually" will be almost instant
1
you are lying . you would not last 1 day in the fields and how long would you work construction before you injure your back because most americans are out of shape bad. comp claims would skyrocket. and even if you did do construction are you going to work fast and hard and bust your ass. not a chance
1
i say we need more legal immigration it's about 1 million / year . i think it should be at least 1% so 3.3 million/ year

@bush_wookie_9606 no not even close . according to 2021 census in russia there are 82,000 people who identify as jewish in russia. in ukraine it is hard to get stats exactly but up to 400,000 people in ukraine are eligible to move to israel. kiyv alone has 110,000 jewish persons. yet a 2020 european study say 40,000 in ukraine which is obviously wrong. so russia is down the line like 6th or seventh. from 2010 to 2021 russia lost half their jewish population due to emigration.
1
well let's not forget why we went in to Iraq the second time . our intelligence said sadam had WMD's . nope so intelligence skews to what those in charge want to hear. putin wanted to hear it would be easy.
1
national security of russia was never in jeopardy. putin couldn't stand have a democratic successful country next door controlling the black sea coast.
1
i thought alaska oil gets shipped to california?
1
except for canadian candu reactors that run on raw uranium . no enrichment required. and canada also has some very rich uranium as well
1
yup super hard to find maintenance people for our factory. we also need a tool and diemaker/ machinist. got 1 resume on indeed in 3 weeks . great candidate but doesn't respond so likely already working.
1
for the savers, will the banks pay higher interest ? will CD rates go up?
1
there was very heavy fog and they were flying over mountains without gps or glonas . so the simple explanation is they flew into terrain . basically flew into the mountain
1
one day you are in snow the next in vegetation all in colorado. is this now or are these recorded weeks apart.
1
false
1
and i just saw some democrats celebrating that a huge LNG export terminal project in the usa is now stalled for some bogus environmental reason. so the same people that want to stop russian gas to europe don't want to allow us to export because of " climate change"
1
what massive subsidies do they give electric car makers? the us has subsidized electric car makers 35 billion so far since tesla and gm were getting their subsidies. i have seen 3 billion in china but i don't know if that is all.
1
@hg2. aluminum foil hat?
1
because rogue nations defy sanctions and trade with the sanctioned countries plus electronics are available worldwide.
1
@henryt4695 and he connived ukraine into giving up it's nukes for a promise we would have their back. i would bet bush would not have been that stupid.
1
seems as usual the office guy thinks his thing is the most difficult. both are needed . the manufacturing is supremely difficult to pull off with acceptable ( profitable ) yields. you can design all over the world but the manufacturing can only be done in a single location.and there is also an art to it that is not easy to duplicate. we will see if tsmc can pull it off in the us at their new plant.
1
they opened 1 lane for car traffic , no trucks already.
1
@HD46409 ask jake bro about the land icbm's . he manned one of the land stations for like 6 years i think.
1
so delay the election then right?
1
@richdobbs6595 correct
1
foe those hawking thorium there is no thorium reactor yet. there are some serious problems with it that are not yet solved. it sound great untill you get into the fine details. the chinese are working on thorium reactors btw.
1
there is video of RFK and trump colluding for trump. they are on the phone and trump says we can win this thing
1
trump wants cart blanche for the resources which he can't get with the current relationships. he is always about wealth not security.
1
do you mean 100 or 100,000 ?
1
@ronarnett4811 bullshit , bot
1
@ronarnett4811 fake russian propaganda lie , lie lie
1
@deanlawson6880 but columbia or brazil told venezuela to back off
1
i am against exporting natural gas because that will increase prices in the us. we use a lot of natural gas where i work.
1
yesit paid your salary that is the proper use of ppp. it saved the govt money. all that $600 top up to unemployment was obscene. it was way more than at least 60% of recipients would make while working. it was based on NY city wages.
1
interesting how in both china and russia they have gone back to an emperor/ czar ruling the whole country.
1
trump wants cart blanche for the resources which he can't get with the current relationships. he is always about wealth not security.
1
move to cheaper towns in the northeast or anywhere.
1
@jaydpee7 yes and he always says nuke you ler instead of nuke lee air . i consider the first a slur
1
as am i . are we going to invade canada ? greenland ? panama ?
1
nuclear along with fuel reprocessing is a good long term option. also thorium. the chinese are building a commercial thorium reactor not just experimental. they have abundant thorium. if they are successful with it then that proves thorium is workable. the waste is much less hazardous . Candu reactors from canada can burn thorium already as well as natural un - enriched uranium.
1
many young people who are in tech come to canada in the hope of emigrating to the us later. there the wages are higher and opportunities are much greater.
1
ukraine has said that if russia attcks their energy grid that they will attack russian oil and gas pipelines and other facilities. they now have drones that can fly 1000 km so this is not an empty threat. so far ukraine has not attacked these so that the price of oil stays down. but if usa stops support to ukraine they have no reason to not do that. so magaheads better consider that oil may jump a whole lot if ukraine disrupts russian oil.
1
@kosta2177 trump would go the other way. he will remove all sanctions on russia to get oil to drop in price.
