Now they’ll say they can’t pass anything because Trump will just veto it.

Great. Who cares? You’re not a family member or friend of the victims. You’re not an investigator with the FAA or the NTSB. You can believe whatever you want to believe.

It’s the military structure he likes. Everyone wears a uniform, everyone puts the uniform before themselves. It’s all yes sir, no sir, Klingons decloaking off starboard sir. There is a clear structure of authority and everyone follows it without question. That is the part of Star Trek Stephen Miller likes. He’s so blinded by the set and setting that he doesn’t see the message at all. As far as he’s concerned it’s a space show about subordinates following their Capitan. Nothing more.

Thank you for providing my point. It’s not gaslighting to say Americans are a repressed population. Saying protests don’t do anything is just dumb. I can list many that have, the Argentinian farmers protest, the Indian Cockroach protests too. Hell, students in France are protesting Trump more effectively. Those happened in the last few months. Americans are filled with so much hopelessness for their futures they’ve learned to be helpless. It’s not that you can’t, it’s that you won’t.

One of the many lessons to take from Enron’s downfall. Downfalls like this always seem impossible until the downfall happens. Then it becomes obvious why the downfall was inevitable.

You’re starting too far down the line.

Most products and services nowadays are gimmicks.

The real question is why can’t we get a simple good product and not inequitable take-it-or-leave it bullshit with delusional prices, regardless of where.
