As a Kia owner this reminds of of when some accountant decided to save $1.34 per vehicle by removing the electronic key verifier from their models and didn’t tell anyone starting like 15 years ago. Then someone in FL figured it out and millions of cars were stolen at enormous cost, class action lawsuits etc. for the company. I’m still waiting for my check.
Sleep soundly, for a while. 10 years ago it wouldn’t have even been worth joking about. Then you look at what car companies have done in the last decade, what Google and Apple have done, what Musk and Thiel have been doing just in the last 11 months, what Amazon and Ring have done, what police forces and Flock have been doing the last few years, what ICE is doing, you’re fooling yourself if you think there are upper limits on the desire for control.
It could probably be obtained much for easily with verified biometricID to enter/purchase something, which could be done much more simply than the shit plot above.
*yet
Was my point. It could be done over time.
Is there anything to stop the next Shitantir(Palantir) from lobbying and then having this embedded into construction code, etc.? Look at all these small towns waking up to find ICE is accessing their traffic cameras and so are vigilante Texas sheriff’s who don’t think women should have abortions…the point being if it can be done, and the wrong people are in power and those systems are designed to be edit the wealthy and powerful, it is just a matter of doing nothing and it will happen.
Corporate welfare for them, austerity for you. Tax cuts for them, sorry not enough to fund social security we’ll have to raise retirement age or cut benefits.
How revolutionary. They’re going to upend the world of finance by trying to give loans to people who can’t structurally afford to pay them back in all likelihood? Isn’t that the entire playbook for wage slaves to those who are otherwise of sound mind and body?
Maybe they try to just continue with the current (awful)status quo without the psuedoscience? Course then they’d lose out on the fascism.
Sociology is one of the few majors that Florida is trying to cut from public school programs. They apparently think it radicalizes people to educate them about the way the world works.
Have you tried accommodation, no consequences and tolerance? Works every time toward fascists.
The bubble was accelerated by people assuming prices would always rise, often their own greed and flipping or becoming landlords, and this was only possible due to the financial engineering that made lending to these folks posivle, but all of that droce the value of the underlying assets down significantly.
You claim there wasn’t a bubble…look at home price values in the sunbelt in 05 vs 2009.
TF are you talking about there wasn’t a bubble
Shocked Pikachu who could have predicted
If that’s supposed to look like a toucan or other tropical bird I’m blown away at the effort.

Found the misogynist /s
Getting nervous about the general public are we?
Sow:reap
They were both at the inauguration, shoulder to shoulder at the coronation.
They signed on the dotted.
Or an equitable economic system. Poverty and inequality breed desperation and support for extremism, partnered with no functional education system it’s the base for every authoritarian regime, ever.
I’ve never been in a single accident and drive a basic compact sedan I bought new off the lot 10 years ago. I could buy it used today, with current mileage for about the same price I paid new. I’ve paid about half the initial purchase price in insurance premiums.
Being a good driver sucks, but it’s kind of like healthcare where…wait a minute I’m healthy and getting fucked there too. As I age I’m going to street race and try to gain as much weight as I can.
It would be a shame if policing focused on billions and trillions being stolen by corrupt corps, crypto scammers and flagrant law violaters of the upper class. But no, policing only for poor
Please tell me this is just a long trailer and not the whole thing?!?
Do you want to just do the minimum?
