There are. Practically everything on the market is verifiably better than coal, including nuclear and natural gas.

So the Chinese tech sector is going through the: "We're cultivating our image as young and dynamic company by lowering our average employee age." phase. This was a big thing in the west during the dot-com bubble, It was also one of those 'innovative corporate strategies' that turned out to be dumb a shit.

All of this looks like standard practice for denizens of Corporate America. Why do you hate capitalism so much?

Well, according to the summary they: "... had held more than 20,000 events and given out $3.5m in scholarships" and that last one should qualify quite easily as 'functionally helping someone'.

Replace 'soldier' with 'scumbag'. Other than that I completely agree.

So in your opinion those involved in the Boston teaparty, an act of patriotic protest deeply admired by Americans today, should have been strung up by the British and publicly flogged or something?

In the US system it is always easier to bribe your way out of trouble than it is to make changes and it's neither hard nor expensive to do so. Now, if anybody thinks I'm unfairly criticising the US here I'm not. Have any of the people that almost crashed the world economy back in 2007-8 served a day in jail? Anywhere in the world? The last time I looked it was 47 of them. Out of these 27 were convicted in Iceland, 11 in Spain, 7 in the Irish Republic. Everywhere else the list does not top one individual and that includes the USA. These people are protected and punishing them would set a 'dangerous precedent'. Boeing executives will bail out of Boeing in a jewel encrusted golden parachute straight into a gated community in one of US America's internal tax havens and live a life in the lap of luxury never wasting a single thought on the people who died in the 737 crashes because they'll break too busy bribing their idiot kids' way into an Ivy League college and coming up with some new and more innovative way of destroying what's left of the US manufacturing industry.

It does not speak highly of the Canadian conservatives or any other political party anywhere else in the world that they took a look at how the US Congress works these days, and particularly the playbook of the MAGA caucus, and saw a awesome way to run a country. If the US Congress is anything these days, it is a working demonstration of everything any National Assembly with a lick of sense should never do.

Oh, they'll get a way with it right up until the detection technology improves a few years later, they get exposed and find themselves in a world of shit. The ability to think more than zero steps ahead actually counts for something.

Yes, peculiarly enough they are giving up on their long time favourite tactic of doing crap the that pleases their donors but pisses off the British public off and are instead trying the desperate move of doing something the electorate actually likes. Let's see how much good that does them chewing up the 23 percent lead the Labour Party has on the Tories opinion polls.

Let's hope that's without massive power outages thanks to an absence of weather proofing enabled by Texas' deregulated energy market that caused massive amounts of damage to Texan energy users who will now not be compensated. The reason being that the power companies whose 'business models' (a.k.a. incompetence and greed) caused the mess in the first place can't be held liable for it due to Texas' deregulated 'business friendly' energy market.

Since you seem to be too dull to divine it from my previous comment let me explain this to you again. I have a very low opinion of the intelligence of the January 6, 2021 rioters and I don't seriously think these people had a realistic chance to succeed at the things they chanted about doing when they entered the capitol. All I am saying is that Hillary Clinton was pretty on the money when she called these people 'a basket of deplorables'. Come to think of it, just the shit smearing part all by itself qualifies these people for the 'basket of deplorables' title, no guns required. Mind you, if any of these morons were stupid enough to bring a gun to the capitol riot, that's certainly a bonus since it will significantly lengthen the jail sentences they'll get.

Sure and America lost its collective shit over that comment at the time. Yet today, ten years later, after these people stormed the US capitol with the intention of invalidating a presidential election, extrajudicially executing vice president of the United States Mike Pence and speaker Nanci Pelosi, after they murdered a police officer, beat up a bunch of police officers with poles carrying American flags, trashed the building and smeared their own excrement all over the inside of it, Hillary Clinton calling these people merely 'deplorable' seems like a pretty polite description.
