Navy sucks balls whether it’s 9 minutes or 9 months. The 9th minute is actually way worse than the 9th month

Be good at something else if you don’t want to sit on a ship

I used to sit on a ship and now I’m good at something else

Is this for random guy going to the store or is this basically a subsidy/ebt card kind of program. If it’s the latter then I don’t see why they wouldn’t have to show I’d.

They should not need either and it would be just as secure as without. Everyone will only get groceries for themselves, and not under another name that will not be using the grocery store, and not come back for seconds or thirds

This is a fact, and you are a January 6 terrorist if you insinuate otherwise

U.S. intelligence community assessed with "high confidence" that China did not attempt to influence the election's outcome, with Beijing deciding neither a Biden nor a Trump victory was "advantageous enough for China to risk getting caught meddling."

Also this same “intelligence community” that told us that it came from a bat.

Maybe a population shouldn’t be x if it can only support y.

If the US subsidizes the entire food supply and housing / healthcare in Liberia what would the population reach? Did we kill all of those hypothetically people by not doing this? If so we are murderers if we don’t spend every last dime on Liberia, not just pay for their diesel.

If you're going to make these bold claims, not sure how it's “tough” to ask you to prove your claims.

The issue isn’t proof, it’s you being honest and agreeing.

No ID is less secure and ripe for fraud, ballot harvesting is ripe for fraud. You know this, your argument is “well did it affect the outcome” not that our elections wouldn’t be much more secure with common sense laws every other developed nation uses.

Doesn’t almost every other nation, including 3rd world shite holes, require ID? Because it’s common sense. Literally the only reason you would be against is to make it less secure and easier to manipulate.

Should we use the honor system for buying alcohol too? Would that be just as secure?

If Americans got a monthly check for the profits those data centers create (no idea how this would happen) then for once I don’t disagree with Bernie.

If you are already cutting their margins in half they will just double the price.

If they can’t double the price (if 50% went to the public) to make what they need they just won’t do it all.

If the government subsidizes it so they can collect our data then they will just tax it out of us

“Earnings” vs value are to totally different things

Her communist brain can’t comprehend value can be separate from labor

-Elon created space x
-space x can be worth billions
-Space x is his
-he doesn’t have to build all the rockets solo by hand to be worth billions
-every employee doesn’t need to be a multi millionaire

Space x and your local dentist can both have a secretary position available. One doesn’t need a 10 million dollar salary while the other gets 50k. That job is valued by what service they provide

I don’t want a Nuclear Muslim nation owning land in the western hemisphere either

The politically incorrect answer is that the military is a jobs program for rural boys who don’t have much of a future

Yes, but they aren’t signing up for a front line combat rate/mos if they just want a paycheck. You can choose your job. Also combat mos is the least likely to gain career training (if poor). You can be a mechanic or electrician in the military too

And before you ask if they are dumb there are plenty of non combat jobs that don’t require any certain asvab score

Studies have also found that poor kids out of high school join the military for medical insurance they otherwise wouldn’t have gotten working as min wage laborers. In rural areas where it is common for poor 17/18 year old boys to already be impregnating their girlfriends, medical benefits are an especially attractive job perk

The last thing on my mind enlisting at 18 was medical insurance. I didn’t give a shite about it when I got out either. In my 30s I started to care

If you had a prior condition that caused you to care about health insurance at 18 you aren’t getting in anyway

Anyone who has trained for combat has an itch to go. Even they aren’t getting a shot in these post Afghanistan conflicts. It’s the very few that have 10x more training than your average grunt, and I promise you they are ecstatic for the opportunity
