The laws state that regular cars need to meet many regulations, while trucks are exempt from them. So trucks got larger. And without competition from foreign trucks, they got even larger.

Where is the U.S.A going to get the extra gas/petrol? They are an importer of energy themselves. LOL

Out species is too stupid to survive. 9 juries somehow got convinced that an oil company was out millions of dollars, LOL.

Fuck off. He is a senior Alzheimer patient.

I’m sure Ontario, Alberta, British Colombia … will all be happy to lose their provincial legislatures for one State House. No local representation. All provincial systems of trade destroyed.

This is idiotic talk.

Break everything, fix nothing.

Good. We need to depopulate by 50%. The earth can’t have 8 billion people. There are less than 30,000 polar bears in the whole world.

Trump is putting a tariff on Canada and Mexico to pay for his up coming tax cuts. He’s not smart enough to see that this won’t work and will cause a disaster.

Trump just killed the N. American auto industry. You can’t remake all the supply chain lines overnight. Some parts cross the border multiple times, meaning way more than a 25% tariff in the end. Asian car companies are going to take over.

After Trump’s presidency the USA will have to open up its constitution for a rewrite.

This is how stores have historically looked https://c7.alamy.com/comp/2M98MR3/general-store-early-1900s-corner-store-old-fashioned-grocery-store-2M98MR3.jpg Things behind counters and clerks helping people.

Stores decided to have fewer employees, and used publicly paid police for security. Socialism for the rich. Now we have police that take 30% of almost all city budgets/public budgets.
Stores should hire more clerks. Public police should not bother investigating anything left out of a counter.

Stores should lock everything behind cabinets to prevent shop lifting. Police should never investigate any shoplifting if a store does not lock up merchandise. Stores should have enough staff to hand you things from behind a counter.

Walmart has download police to municipalities, it costs tax payers billions a year. Socialism for the rich. We need fewer police.

Historically stores have looked like this https://search.library.wisc.edu/digital/ARHMCUO6N7MRYV8S everything locked up, a clerk serving people. Police grew, as stores decided to not lock up stuff. They didn’t lock up stuff because they could cut back on staff and rely on public police.

The Trump White House if going to be selling fake boner pills isn’t it.

Why does anybody go to Starbucks? They’ve been union busters for years.

You can’t pessimistic enough, we are going through a major extinction time period in the history of earth. Say bye to the majority of species we know, any mammal larger than a rat, most birds, most trees, most fish, anything that needs cold weather.

Throw a giant kitch party!

Buy it and use it. It’s fun kitch, don’t let it collect dust. If it breaks, no worries, lots of it around.

Tastes change. As Millennials get older, have kids, buy large houses, they’ll want to fill them. All it’ll take is a couple of social media influences to bring back such kitch. I can’t believe that redneck beards have been in vogue for so long, but they came back from the slimy grave of the 70s.

Trump is fine with concentration camps. Who is going to staff them? If he forces the National Guard to do it, the people in the National Guard arn’t going to be too happy, it’s not fun work.

Interesting that Point Break (1991) and The Matrix (1999) book ended the decade. Point Break focuses on white 20 something kids that dropped out and started surfing, the The Matrix focuses on a 30ish white guy going through an existential crisis. At the beginning of the 90s there was still some hope, that a person could find a small counter-culture and create if not a wealthy life, of something satisfying. By 1999 all hope was gone.

I looked it up, Six Degrees of Separation was inspired from a real incident in the early 1980s. I was wondering why it felt like something from a decade earlier.
