  • Likely nothing because there’s 100+ years of laws and momentum preventing any meaningful change.

    Not to mention the cost and time required to make change is something that is no longer feesable in many instances as things stand. Making change even if you were to get everyone to agree not possible.

    We can make things better going forward but in many cases we can’t actually fix the existing problem with out displacing people and businesses. Damaging already struggling local economies and creating a larger homeless problem.

    City planning is a brutal issue that frequently doesn’t lend it self well to going back and fixing problems. The best in many cases is to stop fucking up in the first place on new construction. And band aid fix old.
















  • The entire argument falls apart simply because if socialism was correct then it would have enough resources to beat the capitalists.

    End of the day your arguing resource generation and expenditure. Socialism sucks absolute fucking ass at resource generation. Like absurdly. It’s one of the worse there is.

    It’s why socialist countries still need capitalism to generate the resources they excel at managing. A management focused system can’t beat a generation focused one.

    It’s why anyone arguing for a pure system of any type. Capitalism, socialism, Communism, etc. Are fucking retarded and not worth engaging with.

    The only ideal system would be one that can get out of its own ass enough to blend multiable different systems in a positive fashion. But humans suck too much to manage that.



  • By that same logic don’t hold Europe up as a good example of privacy either despite the gdpr.

    Like are you actually that stupid? Californias age verification thing is annoying yes, but cali is still one of the prime example of digital privacy and consumer protections in the world.

    No where’s perfect for fuck sake. You can’t just ignore all the good cause one thing that hasn’t even happened yet could possibly be bad.


  • In some cases it’s also a easy way out of an abusive house hold for high schooler.

    My mother for example was beat basically daily and abused by her parents. My father putting a ring on her allowed him to become her legal guardian and remove her from her parents while allowing her to keep going to school and be protected from the state forcing her to go back home.

    My mother was 16 my father was 18. They met when she was a freshmen and him a junior. Dates all though out high school.

    Sometimes being a little flexible is the right call. It sucks that we don’t have better systems in place to deal with such things. But you work with in the system you have.
