Carlin got better as he got older. His shtick was always tight fast well rehearsed dense sets but he went from mostly irreverent to actually saying something. And he was still able to be so funny while clearly getting so angry.

What's crazy is it would likely cost less in taxes to do!

For working class people home ownership was really the primary way to stabilize and build wealth. Which is important since we don't have a social safety net, most of our retirement has been privatized, healthcare and education are dramatically more expensive etc. etc. and since working class folk can't build up generational wealth we are moving into technosurfdom. I don't know if it's unique but it sure do suck over here for a lot of people.

I'm relatively lucky but shit be hard here.

A believe there have been quite a few articles published with interviews from former Boeing execs with who were around when the company went from engineer ran to finance ran. One of them I remember the former executive said part of why they will continue to not trust Boeing is they are only grounding planes to solve one problem at a time after it's caused massive failure and not trying to engineer and solve all the problems they can so these failures stop happening mid flight.

i feel like you just told us the inverse. Shoplift from target, just figure out what a felony in your area is and take less than that first though.

Electricians either have and easy service call or a new contract to wire a new house. Win win.

continue being annoyed by the level of corruption and incompetence of the US ruling class while existing in a visibly collapsing empire.

Thank god this has fallen out of vogue. I remember when most cats I met as a child seemed to be declawed.

As with most things American the more likely explanation is we played ourselves
