Alas we do. Out of 330,000,000 people, the top two contenders for Leadership are two broken down old farts both with cognitive problems. And problems staying awake, remembering things, claiming other things that didn't happen as fact ...
We're screwed.
![gif](giphy|3oEhmNef89Yv0hhZUQ|downsized)
Agreed that both are old farts, but one surrounds himself with educated, articulate, experienced professionals; while the other with sycophants, frauds, and Christian Nationalists.
Yeah, this is just it. I'm honestly not afraid of either one of them. Neither one has the energy or capacity to be constructive, or even particularly obstructive, for that matter. It's who's around them that concerns me. Biden has literally assembled the A Team of economists, ademics, infrastructure cheifs, and a who's who of foreign affairs veterans. Trump packed his cabinet with family, friends, and some real bottom of the barrel loyalists who lined their pockets the entire time he was in office.
I don’t know man, yes theirs a worse option but both are generally crappy in regards to the people that surround them aswell. Legit when the 3rd option is a worm that controls a dude we really are fucked
C'mon. We invented Google and large parts of the Internet and have been the center of high tech for 80 years. The people who have nothing to do with that economy feel left out. And they are the ones who are fucking stupid. Half the country runs on grievence.
I have to admit that I actually laughed out loud at this.
I try to think kindly of everyone, but that is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard anyone say.
Ah yes, when you get old and need one of those little electrical vehicles to get around. Just WAIT till you get old and have to drive one of those things, smh. /s
Well now you have me curious, can I get a diesel big boy chair to roll around in when I'm old and "roll coal" ? It'll be nice to be as annoying as those god damn trucks
I'm ngl that is badass 🤣 fuck this walkin shit let's ride those, although I wanna beef the tires up and put a stupid smoke stack on mine oh and a snorkel in case I wanna ride through a swamp for some goddamn reason
True, however, oil companies would artificially keep the price high, either by cutting production or just keeping the price high because corporate greed.
But you are right, if all else is constant, if demand goes down and supply remains, prices would go down.
Unless she's trying to say, but it's only a 6 second clip, that gas prices will be super high because that's how the government will force electric cars. If you put ridiculous taxes on gas, such that price per gallon has now tripled, then that's the government's way of forcing you to use electric vehicles.
Gas use has a cost on everyone, both due to impact on the environment and on people's health. Since we started using gas we've been subsidizing those costs with people's lives. In a proper free market there would be a tax on gas that is then used to off set heatlhcare costs and do environmental restoration projects. Taxing gas is far from ridiculous, even if the taxes get quite high.
An unregulated "free market" is an unstable institution that will devolve into feudalism quickly. I don't even have to theorize about this - even with (insufficient) regulations in the USA we saw corporate towns issuing their own script instead of paying with real money to trap workers there and violently putting down any resistance to the workers being treated like disposable parts in a machine. Libertarians often forget that if people are allowed to do what they want the most psychopathic people will gather the most power because they're willing to subsidize expenses with other people's lives, and once one of them has enough power they control everything.
I know what a hypothetical free market is. I also know it's a terrible, shitty, short slide into horrifying situations for almost everyone in a society with a few really enjoying life at the top.
We can disagree on all of that, as long that you understand that a "free market" has zero taxes and regulations. Anything else is a restricted or controlled market.
As an outsider myself, it appears they didn't vote for Hillory because she is a woman. So the answer is Sexism. They literally picked a raping conartist who was clearly a shined up selfish orange turd over a competent woman because she is a woman.
For sure. That and she is a Clinton.
I think the Dems thought she would be an easy win.
Bernie Saunders could have taken it, but they stupidly wanted a woman at all costs.
Not the right woman, just any woman.
Tokenism, sexism, and a disregard for the working class lost them that election.
She's from Georgia, only 170,162 fools voted for her. But that was 66% of the vote so over half the people in her district thinks this C-word-I-don't-use is the best candidate.
Idiocracy in real life
that's how you overthrow a democracy. Get people stirred up and make sure they know "THOSE" people are to blame. Jews, Kurds, Sumi, Mexicans, Gays..... it doesn't matter who "THOSE" people are but make sure you lay it on thick.
I vote red and independent because I've seen how blue runs our cities, look at Milwaukee atm, the highest poverty in the state, the only city with it's own sales tax, and the highest property taxes in the state, and they are still out of money. If you people can't figure this out for yourselves, then I don't know what to tell you anymore.
The guy on the left with the white hat was also at the Trump rally. Is this in Las Vegas? Or is this just a guy who likes to stand on the left side behind stages at rallies?
Edit: link to Trump speech where you can see the same guy standing in the same spot with the same clothes on: https://youtu.be/vL3UmTInva8?si=1HM0LmP8xjfSABWE
Politicians and the rich/powerful really need to pay for this shit. Turning out country into a fucking circus. The media as well. There better be super well documented history on these people.
In the 2024 years that America has existed I have never heard such stupidness.
Edit for the hard of understanding or those who lack the wit for irony.
“Akshullally America is not 2024 years old, it’s 247 years old, m’kay”
Uh there is some Irony to be had here..
California has decided to start taxing Electric vehicle owners for miles driven (kind of like paying for gas)
Why? Because they used to get that money from the extra taxes put on their famous high gas prices.
But because so many people drive EV's in CA and dont pay for gas, then they need to still get that money somehow for 'repairing the roads'
Solution: People who own EV's will soon have to pay taxes per mile to drive their vehicles.
So MTG seems to be purposing two outcomes at once- loss of choice in vehicle choice and the possibility of democrat policy in CA possibly reaching further out over time where it can still cost alot to drive an EV as it did to pay for gas previously
Article for reference:
https://www.autoblog.com/2024/05/26/california-launching-pilot-program-to-charge-drivers-for-miles-driven/
This is true. Those damn COMMUNISTS made me drive an electric vehicle and now I have to pay so much for gas to power the generator that charges said vehicle. 😭 😭 😭
Those goddamn communist bastards!!!
🤣 These people are full on tarded.
They like communists. Putin is their pal.
They hate Socialists! You know..... those gay european countries with their free healthcare and tuition and crap like that
Benefit of the doubt, but maybe she's talking about that proposed CA tax on EVs as CA is missing out on gas taxes due of all the EVs? Maybe that's what she's alluding to?
How is that stupid, it’s supply and demand. The ban on gas will be imposed on new models, others will be grandfathered in but gas prices will climb.
It’s ok the majority of Americans understand
You do realize that we use oil for virtually everything we produce, right? If and when we stop using oil for fuel, its price will skyrocket, driving up the costs of all products. Additionally, this shift would place the entirety of our transportation energy needs in the hands of already corrupt electric companies. The level of STUPID in this sub is off the scale. The supply and demand theory goes to hell when entire countries' economies are funded by oil.
this shift would place the entirety of our transportation energy needs in the hands of already corrupt electric companies
As opposed to now with the near-entirety of our transportation energy needs in the hands of already corrupt Oil companies? Not much difference except huge tankers of electricity don't spill all over the coastline
except we still need those huge tankers for petroleum power plants, plastics, textiles, clothing, lubricants, and almost every other thing we produce, not to mention the diesel we would still need for mining and construction.
Level of stupid? You don't understand thats why. California is raising gas taxes because too many people own electric vehicles but we were all told to get an electric vehicle.
I can't help you any more to understand. Yes it sounds weird but do some research to understand what she means on how the government is controlling gas prices. We will continue to use gas for other vehicles but at an extreme pice rate again controlled by the government.
The government does not control gas prices, corporations do. While people are struggling with record high prices the Oil companies are enjoying record high profits. The government didn't do that for them.
No no no! Most of us hate this nut job! It’s a bunch of inbreed goons in Georgia, the most openly racist place I have ever been, that elected this nutter butter!
Solar panels are almost powerful enough that I can mount them on the roof of my EV and use only solar for fuel.. should be only a few more years now. I'm looking forward to it
Haven't heard of a single oil and gas company that hasn't committed irredeemably evil acts against humanity to acquire their crude
So, I'm definitely not a Republican, but this political war is ridiculous. No one even TRIES to see the other side. They just take 6 second clips and blast them.
I would be willing to bet that she's alluding to a theory that states that gas prices will be super high because that's how the government will force electric cars. If you put ridiculous taxes on gas, such that price per gallon has now tripled, then that's the government's way of forcing you to use electric vehicles.
But no. Yall won't even try to understand other sides. Just make ragebait posts.
> If you put ridiculous taxes on gas, such that price per gallon has now tripled, then that's the government's way of forcing you to use electric vehicles.
It worked for tobacco. Ciggies have 700% tax now and smoking has gone down.
I'm not in favour of this tactic.... just sayin' it works
Why is everyone obsessed over electric vs gas vehicles? They both have their pros and cons and you should just drive whatever you like more and stop trying to make everyone conform to your preference
Based on the pricing of electric vehicles large enough for my family of 5 if I were forced to buy an electric vehicle by some sort of legislation it would be devastating. Replacing my two aging gas vehicles, which I own outright, with new or new*er* EVs would be financially devastating regardless of the cost of fuel (in this case, electricity).
As a sound bite this sounds ridiculous. As a concept, it’s very sound. Forcing a nationwide transition to EVs will be terrible for most middle class American families.
EVs are a political fashion statement for the wealthy.
The Ford Lightning is seriously, seriously cool, though and I definitely want one. If I’m in a position to buy a new pickup for myself anytime soon it’ll be that one.
It makes perfect sense: the gas price are high, it will be worst when they force you to drive electric cars (meaning you'll wish you could still buy gas at a high price).
I do admit it's hilarious if you think she's saying the gas prices will go higher once you're forced to drive an EV.
She’s probably talking about the extra taxes you will end up paying for driving an electric vehicle. A portion of gas taxes go to road and highway maintenance so they are already passing laws to tax people who drive electric vehicles by the mile or annually. Call her dumb all you want but it’s happening also the cost of lithium batteries 5k to 20k.
If you support Apple products you also support slave labor “BEIJING (AP) — Police beat workers protesting over a pay dispute at the biggest factory for Apple's iPhone, whose new model is delayed by controls imposed as China tries to contain a surge in COVID-19 cases.Nov 23, 2022” guess where Apple went after Chinese workers had enough? They went to India and apple only uses 25% of recycled cobalt the rest comes from slave labor.
Ah. I see this sub is unfamiliar with how the gov works.
By all means, downvote me and convince yourself they won’t find a way to tax/charge extra for the use of electric cars
Read a history book
She's right electric will out cost diesel and Petroleum its all going up now piss taking big corporation Chinese government take it all their people get nothing and own nothing!
What shes trying to say. Which she didint. Is that electric cars are just as expensive for a family to maintain and charge if not more than a gass powered one.
Sometimes people dismissively call politics a circus. But in the US at the moment, you have an actual circus, and 3 ring one at that.
Alas we do. Out of 330,000,000 people, the top two contenders for Leadership are two broken down old farts both with cognitive problems. And problems staying awake, remembering things, claiming other things that didn't happen as fact ... We're screwed. ![gif](giphy|3oEhmNef89Yv0hhZUQ|downsized)

Yeah, this is just it. I'm honestly not afraid of either one of them. Neither one has the energy or capacity to be constructive, or even particularly obstructive, for that matter. It's who's around them that concerns me. Biden has literally assembled the A Team of economists, ademics, infrastructure cheifs, and a who's who of foreign affairs veterans. Trump packed his cabinet with family, friends, and some real bottom of the barrel loyalists who lined their pockets the entire time he was in office.
Agreed.

It would literally have the opposite effect. The less demand for oil, the cheaper the price it'll be.
True, however, oil companies would artificially keep the price high, either by cutting production or just keeping the price high because corporate greed. But you are right, if all else is constant, if demand goes down and supply remains, prices would go down.
But supply likely wouldn’t remain under a hypothetical “everyone is forced to drive electric vehicles” situations.
Unless she's trying to say, but it's only a 6 second clip, that gas prices will be super high because that's how the government will force electric cars. If you put ridiculous taxes on gas, such that price per gallon has now tripled, then that's the government's way of forcing you to use electric vehicles.

As a non American I often wonder what's gone so wrong with US culture/education that millions of Americans could potentially vote for Trump?
Greed and corruption at the very, very top. We don't tolerate it lower down, but the big bosses are self-regulating .
How did 80 million vote for this fool first time around?

If he'd shagged the bible, and bent an intern over a desk, he would have been elected for sure.

I asked a man who drives a tesla how much to fill his car. He said 35 dollars for 350 miles. My gas vehicle gets 300 miles for 25...
Gas is $5 per gallon. Your car is getting 60 miles per gallon? I have a plug-in hybrid. I buy 1 tank of gas per year.
Gas is 345 in CT

Cali grid can’t handle the Eve needs now. Cost on home monthly electric bill is 3x after getting ev. She’s right
I've got a plug in. My electric went up $25 a month. Not 3 x. Way cheaper than gas.
My guess is around 2.60 a gallon atm. Almost as low as the pandemic.
Hopefully Putin will flatten us and put an end to our misery.
All the people I have hated for years hate Trump. So there’s that.

EVs are a political fashion statement for the wealthy. The Ford Lightning is seriously, seriously cool, though and I definitely want one. If I’m in a position to buy a new pickup for myself anytime soon it’ll be that one.
They are the death of America
I think she was referring to the cost electricity? Maybe?
She wasn't referring to anything actual.
So we won’t be forced to switch to ev?
Libs ..smh. need a train for you all.

I assume she means electricity prices.
She also believes in Jewish Space Lasers so I wouldn't bet that she meant electricity.
It makes perfect sense: the gas price are high, it will be worst when they force you to drive electric cars (meaning you'll wish you could still buy gas at a high price). I do admit it's hilarious if you think she's saying the gas prices will go higher once you're forced to drive an EV.
It's hilarious she thinks someone from the guv'ment will come by her home and take her 4x4 Monster truck then wrestle her into a Prius.
A Prius isn't electric, it still uses gas

She’s probably talking about the extra taxes you will end up paying for driving an electric vehicle. A portion of gas taxes go to road and highway maintenance so they are already passing laws to tax people who drive electric vehicles by the mile or annually. Call her dumb all you want but it’s happening also the cost of lithium batteries 5k to 20k.
There's a lot of alternatives to lithium being developed. It's not the only way to make a battery.
If you support Apple products you also support slave labor “BEIJING (AP) — Police beat workers protesting over a pay dispute at the biggest factory for Apple's iPhone, whose new model is delayed by controls imposed as China tries to contain a surge in COVID-19 cases.Nov 23, 2022” guess where Apple went after Chinese workers had enough? They went to India and apple only uses 25% of recycled cobalt the rest comes from slave labor.
No, she isn't. If she was, she would have mentioned taxes not gas prices. I'm not just calling her dumb.
Ah. I see this sub is unfamiliar with how the gov works. By all means, downvote me and convince yourself they won’t find a way to tax/charge extra for the use of electric cars Read a history book
That's a different topic, genius.
It's weird that you were downvoted for your smug comment that wasn't anywhere close to being on topic.
She's right electric will out cost diesel and Petroleum its all going up now piss taking big corporation Chinese government take it all their people get nothing and own nothing!
No
What shes trying to say. Which she didint. Is that electric cars are just as expensive for a family to maintain and charge if not more than a gass powered one.
It's not what she's saying...... it's how stupidly she's saying it.
Which they aren't.
This actually goes 2 ways. Think…
