It's the fact that so many people live in remote areas that's going to fuck us. Right now about 20% of the world's oil production capacity has been destroyed. Before this war is over that number will might be 40%. It will take at least three years (more like five) to rebuild all those wells and refineries and storage facilities.
The Storm hasn't hit us yet. It will and it will suck and the rural people will suffer the most.
Maybe but please don't pretend this isn't the result of a racist party working to make their racist voters happy but signaling to them that they are going to keep making sure their race continues to dominate all other races.
Terms like "good guys" and "bad guys" are not helpful at all. Why not take a more direct approach. Who has harmed you more. Who has harmed your family or your country more? Who is more likely to target you personally and perhaps arrest you or kidnap you etc?
It's important to be specific when talking about these things. "good guy" can mean anything but honestly I don't see how any definition of good guy can be applied to the US government. That country hasn't had more then years without a declared war in the more then 200 years of it's existence. The world's biggest merchant of theft, death, destruction and oppression.
I am almost certainly panicking and will almost certainly support a war with china and almost certainly support rounding up chinese people and interrogating them in dark chambers
Basically it's less planning and less scrutiny and less options if you object and of course less regard for the environment, culture, desires of locals, human beings etc
We need to keep stats on every demographic and figure out whether or not natives or immigrants commit more crimes and more violent crimes. If it turns out that NZ born people commit more crimes and more heinous crimes then we should take severe action against NZ born people and invite more immigrants right away.
We can't just cut people slack because they were born in NZ instead of being born elsewhere.
I once heard Marc Cuban say the best investment an ordinary person can make is to buy things in bulk when they are on sale. Say you normally buy detergent one bottle at a time. If you catch it on sale at 20% off and then stock up for the year you are going to get a 20% return on your investment which you'll never achieve in the stock market.
Made a lot of sense to me. I stocked up on butter when it was 4 dollars. I filled a couple of shelves in my freezer. I just got done with that batch and saved a ton of money.
Meh. Trucks get weighed so the additional axel of a trailer isn't going to make that much of a difference. The cab has multiple axels but it could be traveling empty without a trailer.
You can charge more for visas, you can have airport taxes, you can levy a fee on museums, huts, trails and such, you can place taxes on tour operators and guides etc.
None of that will happen. This country is just not capable of strategic thinking, long term planning, or doing the right thing in general.

I know you won't answer this question but....
what has Iran done to make your life worse. What has the USA done to make your life worse.
You didn't read the yellow menace alarmism in the article?

This year I promised not to give anybody gifts and not to accept gifts from anybody. I told everybody about it months before Christmas.
I kept that promise.
The bill is not targeted at social media. It's targeted at you and me. It's to control what we are allowed to say and do online.
How dare they do the same things we do!
Let's be honest enough to admit that this government is hostile to democracy

Maybe it should never have been. You should not be proud of an accident of birth.
Is she? Where did you get this notion from?

There are lots of options.
