You used a whole lot of words to still be describing collective punishment, which is still a war crime under the 1949 Geneva Convention.

But do go on about why that's perfectly fine in the circumstance of a brutally oppressive authoritarian regime and how the "western media" got it all wrong.

And 10 of those past 15 years were under Democratic administrations that actually cared about environmental concerns.

5 of those years have been Trump doing as much damage as possible. Imagine where we might be without a 2/3rds effort.

Well, you see: the word "socialism" is bad, but the concept is just fine.

See: the Trump Administration seizing the means of production in the tech industry by having the government take a stake in Intel, Nvidia, AMD, etc. while also saying that the medical insurance companies are evil parasites all of a sudden while simultaneously shitting on anyone that dares to talk about a single-payer health care system.

That might be the worst ad I've ever seen.

So they make a gimped product that nobody buys, and then they think it's the product class that is the problem, rather than their gimpy execution.

Sounds about right.

Or:

"Every HRIS software solution is a rats nest of shit and garbage, cemented together with used chewing gum and toxic industrial sealant that gives you headaches just for looking at it, running on top of archaic and deeply outdated vendor lock-in 'enterprise solutions.' Thus you need more humans to get done what needs doing. See: Oracle HMS, Workday, ADP, BambooHR, etc."

Yes, I can't wait for them to get even more picky about what Visa cards they take, rather than only being picky about Visa-only.

That won't get annoying at all.

Or, here's an idea: don't build large facilities that can't be powered up in geographical areas that can't provide the resources you need to operate the large facility.

What critical need is served by building these things in Santa Clara rather than somewhere with a bit more infrastructure to handle it, other than proximity to HQ?

To be accurate, he said "we" are going to win so much, while leaving "we" ambiguous.

The missing definition of "we" is "we billionaires" but was purposefully left ambiguous so that ignorant salt-of-the-earth types would think they're included too when they never were.

"We" are now finding that out the hard way. Well, some of "we" - about 75 million people figured it out previous to the election last year, but not everyone learns at the same pace.

Awesome analysis. /s

Now take a crack at this one:
IF the government receives all the same paperwork that I do for filling out that 1040 form and dropping it in the mail;

AND they use that exact same paperwork for checking my math for any of hundreds of tiny mistakes that can be made;

AND they are always thought to be right, with the burden of proof otherwise being on me

WHY does each and every one of us need to bother with this bullshit instead of receiving a 1040 that we can review and open a request if we think it's wrong?

This process is so fucking backwards it's not even funny.

I'm sure the billionaires that run operations like Intuit TurboTax had no input on this delay, either.

Just as soon as we stop letting rich people do whatever the fuck they want with no repercussions or consequences.

You think a guy with that kind of money gives a shit about the city having a regulatory fit over him doing stuff?

He'll pay the fines and then pay someone else to file the paperwork and make it all go away, because he can.

You and I? We cannot.

Nice rant.

Please show any of the other 49 states that do not have similar regulations.

Spoiler alert: you will not find one, because every state has these regulations in order to conform with various federal laws about special needs education.

If he was homeschooling, it would be his kids at home and there wouldn't be traffic concerns.

There are other people's kids being educated there too, which means he's operating an unlicensed education facility.

But it's OK because he's a tech bro billionaire so we already know there won't be consequences.
