Excellent point!

Our greatest tension but also our greatest strength is our diversity, bc that doesn’t just mean how people look etc, it means diversity of ways of thinking/tackling problems, not being stuck with a monolithic culture that cant evolve, and it creates a dynamism and energy that can be felt. And our economy benefits.

It’s why even today, this is the place folks from repressive countries want to come to.

Our founding fathers considered us to be the greatest experiment in human history, a country founded on principles and ideals vs just a plot of ground some similar looking folks happened have been living on for a while.

Considering out ability to maintain customers is also based on the pricing we provide them with, and considering the scale and dollar value for which we are playing, cost wins. End of story.

I'm lucky that what I do is still domestic, considering what payment looks like for persons in say Thailand or Malaysia. Outsourcing is its own monumental problem.

The great challenge of this 21st century is going to be figuring out how we all can live and thrive with increasing automation. Even China has this problem bc labor costs there have increased to the point where some companies are outsourcing from them to cheaper labor locations or automating.

Not picking on you, just saying there are some worthless shitbags without a life worth living.

Hey now... there's nothing wrong with the porn industry lol. I say if you can make money online from idiots, then by all means go for it. Capitalism at its finest

My point was you can get everything for free without ever paying a dime

I've got a long way to go to break her in just right, so It should be fun, the neighbors definitely noticed as it was being off loaded from the carrier..

Nothing to crazy lately. Made a blueberry vinagarette last night for a salad and plan to smoke a rack of ribs this weekend with a bourbon glaze.

Trying to convince the gf to let me get a wood fire pizza stove. An ooni or a Koda would be phenominal.
