I like the thought exercise of; consider you as you are now never heard of religion/higher powers/all the gods. Now picture yourself being spoken to by a pastor of the lord Jesus christ. You'd think this guy is absolutely batshit and shouldn't be out walking around. Certainly at the very least not be allowed to indoctrin more to their causw within a tax free building paid for largely by taxes.

Go to a parking lot and frig around till you get it? I mean e brake turns and slipping and sliding in icy parking lots in winter is how most good drivers get good. In order to be safe accidentally out of control, you've got to experience what that feels like in a safe, intentional way.

This also removes a bit of the fear factor and anxiety which imo cause as much or more accidents than anything else. Most friends I have that aren't great drivers are scared of driving. Thanks to their fears and indecision, they've got more accidents and fender benders than anyone.

Confidence is key.

Don't conflate services with goods. If your grocery bag boy showed up at your door when you were 3/4 through your loaf of bread and said you owed an extra dollar before you ate the rest you'd tell em to get the fuck off your property before you called the police.

If you want to compare them as the same, you've got to use every example.

Don't say anything that's lest majest! Just let him have his way with you and it'll be over by morning. Don't fight back it's pointless.

We were here in history before. You wanna go back? We've been well on our way since the 60s to another society of the wealthy and the poor. No in between. The last bout of this we called the religious dark ages and it stifled progress for two millenia.

I've had dozens of conversations that went just like this. As long as a decade ago from fuckin cable pullers and surveyors (the ones that hike through shit and snow with flags not the engineers) making 14$ an hour in Alberta when everyone else that flew out there was making 30+. You could make the same shoveling shit back home and they were upset about BC paying Tim's workers 18$ at the time.

People are fuckin stupid and unaware. So they guess, wrong at their situation 99% of the time because some yokel in a suit pointed fingers at a convenient distraction that plays on their already present xenophobia. None of their "issues" were geographically or economically pertainent to themselves but they liked to bitch about them all the same.

Greed and money. Collusion can be ideological, not planned

No...it let's the large companies continue to pollute while passing the penalty off to those who can't afford to move the needle even slightly. This needed protections against this before the tax was levied but good fuckin luck getting legislation against Canada's ogliarchs that actually effect their bottom line
