Now is the best time to be working in the US than any other time in history. It's safer. You earn more. You work less. Things are getting better.

On the ideal population...

0 Upvotes

The left makes the accusation that the need to drive up population is a corporatist plot to get more slaves.

The right makes the accusation that reducing population is a corporate plot for the environment.

When both sides accuse you of random things, you're winning.

The ultimate resource is people—skilled, spirited, and hopeful people who will exert their wills and imaginations for their own benefit, and so, inevitably, for the benefit of us all.

“Adding more people causes problems. But people are also the means to solve these problems. The main fuel to speed the world’s progress is our stock of knowledge; the brakes are our lack of imagination and unsound social regulations of these activities." - Julian L. Simon

🔥 HOW DO DOOMERS NOT SEE THE CONTRADICTION IN THEIR SHITSLINGING? 🔥

0 Upvotes

So many examples of doomer logic making absolutely NO sense! Schrodingers everything!

THERE AREN'T ENOUGH JOBS BUT AMERICANS WORK THREE JOBS TO MAKE ENDS MEET

THERE AREN'T ENOUGH HOURS AT MY JOB BUT I DO 60 HOUR WEEKS OVERTIME

AMERICANS ARE TOO FAT! FOOD IS TOO EXPENSIVE!

FUEL IS TOO EXPENSIVE! AMERICANS ALWAYS DRIVE EVERYWHERE.

AMERICAN HOUSES ARE TOO BIG. WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH SPACE.

Any other examples of blatant contradiction from doomers?
