Wait a minute, the Left despises the American working class.
No it doesn't. In fact, you do:
Remember the deplorables slur?
That's only a slur against the working class if you think voting for Trump is the preserve of the working classes. The "left2 couldn't despise the workers that hard if they tried.
Left cares about the workers?
Ah so that's why the Republicans are bith cutting healthcare and safety regulations. Because they love the workers so much.
their business badly. They failed. You left out the last step: Then they blamed it on Trump.
How unfair. The raised prices can't affect anyone because #MAGA. That's a fact. Now stop worring about that and look at the space force. Everybody says space is important and we have the best space---everyone says we have the bese--and you're not going to believe the space we're going to have except the fake news at CNN but I don't watch CNN
Also, the margins on cases should be astronomical, 5 lbs of steel and a few LEDs, an ounce of black paint and a few plastic parts probably take 5-8 dollars in material costs. The only problem in the industree should be that China can make them cheaper which can be solved with the appropriate tariffs.
I would say if you know how to make cases that cheaply you ought to go into business. Yo'd have half the cost and twice the margin of everyone else. It costs much more to produce the case than the raw BoM cost.
You've got to actually manufacture the thing for a start.
You then have to amortise the cost of design and any capital costs over the expected number of units produced.
And that company ain't going to run itself even when the design is done. You need people to do all that stuff and deal with marketing, sales, order fulfilment, supply chain managemant, quality control, regulatory compliance and so on and all the ancilliary things like accounting, personell, and so on and so forth.
I was looking at rodent traps on aliexpress and noticed some stamped "Made in Iowa".
Well, if you need so many rodent traps that it's worth finding that kind of discount then I take my hat off to you, you have one hell of a rodent problem. Best of luck.
You're the one who wants men in women't bathrooms. You've repeatedly refused to give a choerent reason why. The only logical conclusion is you want cover so you can go in. You're not deranged, just really, really creepy.
As a former smoker, I can assure you the problem with cigarette butts has more to do with poor city governance than with the behavior of smokers.
You choosing to make litter in a place with no easy disposal is somehow the city's fault? How about some personal responsibility? How about carrying it home with you or not generating the litter in the first place.
If you find litter in your community and there's not a garbage can on every corner, then you should blame your incompetent city council, not litterbugs.
How about blaming the arseholes like you who are too lazy and selfish to arry litter home with them.
I've seen people standing next to a litter bin with a built in ashtray chuck away the butts. It sounds like you really: it's the conucil's faul for not having a bin riiight next to the person.
Prison rehabilitated me to the point that I would have to be in a really desperate situation to repeat my crime
And now you want to pay it down by "rehabilitating" some burly bearded dudes until they use the ladies toilets, like this dude. I think you're pretty weird, TBH. (btw, no I won't let up until you recant your absurd philosophy)
Anyway the actual point is that regardless of your personal anecdotes, the statistics show that the US is crap at rehabilitation and the reoffending rate is much higher than some other countries.
and its really not the rape factory its portrayed to be in the movies, well most aren't.
Well, that's damning with faint praise!
There are a few, and even in those you're more likely to get murdered than raped.
I've given up trying to keep track of how many times I've seen the Musk haters say "Musk has screwed the pooch this time",
Maybe Tesla is the new Apple. At one point the joke was: "Apple: Going out of business since 1976." because of all the prophecies of doom. Seems t obe pretty similar with Tesla too.
Good job I didn't say that then. If you randomly delete 50% of the words from my sentances then you can make it say that, but that sure isn't what I wrote.
I like how you believe logic based on gross simplifications trumps reality.
England had the death penalty for tons of stuff including in the 18th century mandatory execution for theft of goods worth moor than 12d (12p in metric money) which even then wasn't very much. It didn't deter theft. If it did you wouldn't have had a substantial number of jurors intentionally understating the value stolen to avoid the death penalty.
Or if you prefer you can look at modern day China. Why do they have to keep cranking down on dissent if dissent has incredibly harsh penalties? Because insanely harsh penalties are not a deterrent.
But sure keep arguing for spending more and more on ineffective incarceration.
TPTB over the decades have worked to chip away at our educational systems, our mental health systems, our criminal justice system, and our common shared beliefs using propaganda involving the pushing of identity politics
What utter bullshit: the problem is entirely people like you. The criminal justice system has many deep problems relating to the lack of funding for public defenders, zero reprecussions for criminal actions by prosecuters (see how many convistions for witholding evidence there have been), a system stacke towards the prosecution, and the entire plea bargaining system.
Yet morons like you whitter on about "identity politics" when the foundations of your country are on fire. And while the politicians realise they can get your vote by demonising the other tribe rather than fixing the actual problems nothing will ever get fixed.
Here's an idea, if you want to stop crime then put criminals in prison. That seems to be working for a lot of places.
No it really isn't. You're already putting more criminals in prison than anywhere else on earth. And you don't have the lowest crime rate. More incarceration in "the land of the free" a.k.a. "the most heavily incarcerated country on the planet" is not the solution.
It is not about "saving babies" but about a culture of people behaving irresponsibly and then flushing the consequences down the toilet
Bullshit. It's about using the law enforcing religion by the back dor. This is why I'm not perplexed. Conservative "christians"[*] want to enforce the laws of their spiteful desert god on the world. Oddly they seem less interested in what Jesus had to say most of the time.
[*] It baffles me how anyone conservative can call themselves a Christian. Have they ever actually read the bible? Jesus is protrayed as the most famous radical of all time.
Do you really want to work at a place where people claim they sexually identify as an expansive ornate building, and your employer gives them a microphone?
Well, so says some guy who got pissy after getting fired for being a wanker. And microphone? Sounds like they let them post on forums.
and if you don't like people being a bit strange on forums, then what the hell are you doing on the internet?

Hmm you're right I think! I don't usually hold with diagnosing over the internet, but Trump has given us so muc material it's likely not a bad choice.

No one cares if "assembled in America" jobs are lost.
Except the people who have those jobs.
Fuck 'em.
This is indeed the core of #MAGA.

The city says you should not litter.
It's not the city, it's other people asking if you can not shit everywhere and make the world a nasty place.
Beyond asking nicely, what has the city done to modify human nature?
Fine the shit out of people littering, I hope.
extremely intolerant Antifa members.
Not tolerating people wh advocate genocide? Oh! the humanity!

Short sellers pissed off that the share price went up? let me see if I an find something small enough to hold the sympathy I feel for them.
Saying it is not culture, but religion, is silly

Intersectionality is why prosecuters never prosecute other prosecuters for criminal witholding of evidence?
You're on crack mate.
And fiddling while Rome burns. But hey, them SJWs is gonna get it any day now.
And please, if you don't have any respect for me
It's hard to overstate how much respect I don't have for you.

Google is pushing https everywhere to eliminate anonymous publishing.
What are you talking about?
HTTPS everywhere stops ISPs and governments from casually snooping on everything I do online. And it doesn't prevent anonymous publishing.
No, they really did drop their own rule to not be evil.
It's scummy, anti-American,
A massive, powerful, incredbly rich American company is about the most American thing you can get.
