2020-02-25 at 2:17 AM UTC in Dutch Scientists propose enormous β¬500bn dam enclosing North SeaWe could use hoses and pumps to put the ice back into the centre of antarctica. Maybe build a huge mountain that reaches up 300k feet. That's where we'll store our water reserve.
Originally posted by Fox Not to mention, you know, the entire east coast of the US will be underwater: New York City, Washington DC, the entire state of Florida, etc. 40% of the worldβs population live in coastal cities.
It's not the coast anymore if it's underwater. Fucking good. All those coastal cities are just yuppie paradises anyways. Welcome to the farm, boyz! -

2020-02-25 at 2:03 AM UTC in Dutch Scientists propose enormous β¬500bn dam enclosing North SeaShould be doable. You already have lots of land below sea level. Such as the land surrounding the Caspian Sea.
The levees would be made out of dirt and earth, would be too wide for an earthquake wouldn't shake it. Basically inserting a mountain chain around England.
Draining the baltic sea would cause the sea to rise elsewhere, I'm sure. Perhaps make an ice mountain on Antarctica with the additional water. Or send it to the moon. Also you're landlocking Sweden, Poland, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Lithuania, and Finland. The added land value could very well offset the costs of loosing their ports. -

I was replying to Star Trek's comment that black waman were responsible for winning WWI and stopping Hitler. Thanks to the black women who helped Roosevelt take a shit during then, the men could continue fighting. So black women did play a part in WWI. They helped Roosevelt onto the toilet seat so he could spend his energy planning the war!

Man of the year was never an honourary title. It was simply given to the most influential person, it doesn't recognize good or bad. -

Originally posted by Speedy Parker So you think the government knows better how to educate your child than you do?
I'm saying it should be a public offering open to those who cannot afford private education or the time for homeschooling. You want your neighbours to be illiterate?
In a perfect world, a stable job would provide enough money to cover all these costs. Unfortunately, it's not. So we must tax it out of the rich. -

Originally posted by Speedy Parker Body guards do not have police powers and isolated mercenary units do not equal a standing army for national defense. How can you be so stupid about everything?
Some things don't make sense to have privatized. K-12 education is widely accepted among these things. As are police forces. Basic healthcare should be among them. The private entities here exist to give people who don't like the public offerings. Whether it's mercenaries, private hospitals or private education.
Saying the US should have a policy that's been implemented in every other developed country, and even in most developing countries, makes me a socialist. Ya right. Looks like the US is the last bastion of Freedom from the tyranny of publicly funded healthcare. -

And private policemen are called body guards, private investigators or security guards. -

Huh? I'm by no means a socialist. Certain programs should be government funded, however. Police, fire, healthcare, ambulance, education, road works, military, prisons and I'm sure there's a few more. There should be private competitors to all of these as well to keep gov't on their toes. Bernie's plan is shit, planning to pay for illegals to have their sex change operations then put them on welfare for the mental trauma chopping off their dick causes. -
2020-02-25 at 12:31 AM UTC in Why can't non whites use stores correctlyOverall, wars cost money, not generate it. With exceptions. There's people who profiteer from wars yes. The colonies and trade did generate wealth. Could more wealth have been generated by staying at home? Hell no, the wars for colonization were vital to Britain. Else Britain would be an overpopulated shit hole.
US profited immensely from WWII due to their economy becoming socialized during this period then returning to privatization. After 1945, gov't sold most of what it had built during the war. Suddenly there was a huge surplus of material, workers, time, money and empty factories. And it was all put to good use by entrepreneurs, picked up on the penny.
Men are needed for wars. For both frontlines and production. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that when you take men away from working on civilian infrastructure, that the working class is paying for the war. None of this economical mumbo jumbo. A country has a set amount of manpower and can choose which industries to dedicate them to. They could've been better spent their time producing cars, building houses, building healthcare facilities, schools, producing equipment for civilian infrastructure.
Then the US boys don't understand they can't have free healthcare or subsidized education. It's because you wage wars that you end up loosing anyways. -

The only thing I have heard against it was the amount of diverse soldiers (meaning nogs) inserted into it.
Yes, some nogs fought in WW1, especially for France, but not that many. It was mostly a white on white slaughter, where you couldn't tell either side apart.
And the jedi soldiers all stayed in the rear and did the paperwork.
They Shall Not Grow Old was very sad.
I really feel like preventing another European war is our number one priority going forward.
There was like one turban guy in it. Which caused a shitstorm. Would've been a bigger shitstorm if there wasn't any turban guy in the movie. -

That will lead to huge competition in the trades specifically. Now Poland will see the low trades wages that they've been cursing Britain with since they joined the EU. -

I inherited it. This is a top notch movie screen. I could get a bland shitty 32" TV for 200$ yes, but not a 3440x1440 curved ultrawide. For viewing 2.35:1 movies, I get a picture size equivalent of a 42" 16:9 screen. In any case I inherited it, didn't pay a cent. -
