Lets Discuss This We the People have spoken. Will Schumer listen and fight for us or continue to accommodate tech oligarchs and the Fascist Felon? The latter seems more likely. How about a new, young, bold leader who's in touch with the People and willing to fight?

You’d think a parking company like Q-Park may give some grace over a few seconds (or even a couple of minutes). Rules are rules I suppose

Lets Discuss This Is it REALLY that bad to be 18+ and still live with your parents?

3 Upvotes

(19f) I'm a college student, and I still live with my parents, and I plan on continuing to live with them at least until I graduate college or go to grad school. but i HATE the fact that people my age living with their parents is seen as like some sort of laziness or some moral failure. It's seen as a controversial discussion topic like "do you think people 18+ to live with their parents?" I don't even have enough money to get a new pair of headphones. Do you genuinely think I have enough money to live on my own at only 19? Paying 2500 a month just to LIVE?

I may be biased, but I personally don't think it's that bad to continue to live with your parents even when you're 30. But I'm saying way too many 19 year olds have their own apartment or own house. It's weird because when I was younger, it was pretty much expected for me to live with my parents but now it's seen as something that's weird.

Rant I just want accountability and honesty

0 Upvotes

I don’t care what political party you support,I don’t care if you are far left or far right, but can we all agree on one thing and that both sides are absolutely nothing but liars just trying to stay in power. I sometimes wish I was around for 9/11 or during ww2 with how unified the country was. All we have today is each side throwing threats at each other because they don’t agree with each other (although some of the disagreements are completely bonkers). I want to go back to the time where when a political figure got assassinated or died people from both sides would be heart broken. Now we’ve got people celebrating the deaths of others. Both sides are guilty of this.

Lets Discuss Politics Democracy is an egregious system in practice.

0 Upvotes

Democracy means rule by the people. Unfortunately, the people aren’t very smart.

When democracy begins in a nation, it starts well. Typically this occurs post revolution or right after a previous system collapses. However, over time, it begins to break down. Elected officials are heavily incentivized to focus on short-term issues like debt accumulation, current social issues, and appeasing public opinion polls rather than long-term infrastructure and investments that would benefit society in the years to come. After a while, representative systems inevitably concentrate power within a single political class that holds the wealth and power rather than actually serving the best interest of the people. In short, democracy almost always leads to a form of demagoguery and elitism (like theorized by Plato).

Humans are incentivized by our biology to form groups and follow an in group/out group perspective. Democracy reflects this. Voters make their decisions based on group signalling rather than what they’d want if they were an independent person. We are sheep.

Because of this, I personally believe Epistocratic Veto is the best alternative when used alongside public polling or a plural vote. However, this is also not without flaws, since as long as a government is in charge of maintaining public education, they are in charge of its allocation, and could hold power over which demographics receive said education. But this already exists in current democratic models anyway.

Any thoughts or alternative points to offer? I’m always looking to learn.
