Years ago I worked in a liquor store in a strip mall. We had an auto supply store in the lot next to us and a bunch of fast food spots. The two lots have 3-400 parking spaces.
One day a guy pulls up to our fire lane, which is intended for firetrucks pulling up to building that are on fire, in a Shelby Cobra. I ask him to move as we have hundreds of open spaces, he could quadruple park and it wouldn’t be an issue. He told me to get fucked so I told the manager.
The manager goes to the pretzel place and suddenly there’s a fire alarm. The fire truck plows through the Cobra devastating it. The owner of the Cobra freaks and starts yelling at the firefighter only to be reminded the car was illegally in the fire lane and he should expect to have to pay a fine for that and pay for any damage to the truck.
I don’t get why some think their stuff should be treated differently.
In 1991 video games were not seen as a good use of time as theoretically you weren’t gaining any skill from them.
Cars are a false equivalence as they aren’t purely entertainment like SNES was.
Finally in 1991 most news media still had a “wall” between reporting/editorial staff and finances so things like ad placements weren’t as much if a factor. Removing that artificial division, which meant media was run as a company first rather than as a news source first, is behind a lot of the decline in news quality.
If you read the NT and skip the Pauline letters you end up with a group of people trying to reform Judaism not make a new religion centered around Yeshua as God.
Oh, I have actually studied economics. Im not “almost there” Im past the point where I consider anyone talking about “neoliberalism” to be relatively uneducated in economics.
You should stand by your statement as it is correct.
Neoliberalism is fairly close to the general economic consensus on things like trade between 1980-the present. It was backed by both parties for a reason.
