Why would a war on the completion alone hurt the CIAs drug sales? Think through what you’re saying before labeling it in that way, just because you dont understand what’s being said. If your drug runners make it across the border without any hassle, you make more money than anyone else. It really isn’t as hard to understand as you’re making out to be.

Also, I mean the CIA literally ran the heroin game out of Laos and Myanmar from the start Vietnam war until they switched the base of operations of Afghanistan in the early 2000s. It’s how they paid for operation gladio and the illegal regime changes around the world, in the exact same way they flooded America with crack in the 80s.

It not making sense to you is a user issue.

If we realise that the “war on drugs” was actually the CIA’s war on the competition because counter narco insurgency is, for instance and purposes, indistinguishable from narco insurgency, the “war on drugs” was a roaring success. I mean, those illegal regime changes and death squads aren’t free, ya know.

You’d have thought that depicting Mary pegging satan would get you burned at the steak in those days. Apparently not, it would seem.

In the rest of the western world, landlords buy houses. They’re especially prolific for this in places with a high demand for housing, as this will maximise their profit extraction for the least amount of work. It’s a real problem, especially when the people denying mortgages to people are the same ones buying up the housing stock.

The same claim is made in the UK about the “real” problem being building regulations, as if forcing developers to build infrastructure like schools and roads (along with the houses they want to build) is a bad thing. Luckily though, the idea that the private sector could save us from themselves, at the expense of their own profit, is so silly that most people are informed enough to dismiss it instantly as nothing more than the corporate propaganda it is.

At some point, we have to start accepting the finite nature of land.

I would look at things like “supply and demand” to answer that question.

It depends on what you mean by absorb. To make into muscle, it’s about right. Maybe a bit more for a man on a hard weight lifting regime. Like, 4 x 1-1.5 hours a week. The rest will be stored as fat, if it isn’t used for energy, the same as anything else. That could also be seen as absorbed but I think you mean the first one.

100%. For example right now the meat and dairy lobby groups are pushing hard for everyone to eat for more protein than they need. Now, I have people who can’t tell the difference between a cytokine and a histone without using Google, even if it slapped them round the face, telling me they need 100g plus a day in Brotien. Its just a coincidence that this so called health advice makes those groups a lot more money.

The only other person here who understands MMT. Sorry for your downvotes. Just wanted to send some love, over the ignorance.

I have one simple trick for people who hate taxation but turn a blind eye to corporate profits. Instead of calling it “tax” call it “government profit” because, apparently, that’s all it takes to fool them.

I’m told filming sims can sometimes fool it

That’s not what saying something like that would mean but I’m not going to laugh at someone who isn’t a native speaker for that. It’s a weird reply though.

My point is that you don’t have to use olive oil. I just said it in a silly way. It’s a prompt for the realisation of “oh yeah, I could use other oils. Other oils exist.” You don’t seem to have picked up on that and have chosen taken it personally, on behalf of olive oil. Theres no need. The oil doesn’t care.

Good luck with the olive oil fried rice though!

Sorry to burst your bubble but I’m not American. However, your assumption that my view must be American, specifically due to your intensely eurocentric view, is painfully ironic.

For some people making Indian, Mexican, Thai or Chinese food with olive oil isn’t tasty, as (believe it or not) olives don’t actually go with everything.

I mean, I listed more than just Italian but I guess that’s inconvenient for the point you’re attempting to make.

I am being free. It’s just im using my freedom not to make my food taste weird. People can use a neutral oil like vegetable oil for almost everything instead of, say, using olive oil in a curry or egg fried rice 🤮.

Maybe they’re not making Italian, Greek or Spanish food?

What if he slipped and accidentally turned it all into wine?
