You really need to pay attention to something *other* than Faux Noise. I also didn't post links to all the news stories about smog alerts in cities - esp. India and China - with large coal plants.

Not really. And yes, I *did* write COBOL. (And PL/1, and C, and...)

Perhaps more humane conditions for chickens, cattle, and pigs, than raising them in something not much different than the slave ships did for people? Then you wouldn't need to feed them antibiotics to keep them from dying...

You don't see a difference between free speech and fraud?

Really? I thought you were swearing up and down that you'd rise up with your guns to save us from tyranny.

I notice you NOT doing that, right now.

And you don't live near a coal-fired power plant. Nor do you even notice the news reports of cities that have them that have major issues with almost-unbreathable air for days.

And, stupid, there are no new jobs in mining.

Given that AI is a money sink, and revenue increase? Is it actually higher than inflation?

The AI bubble collapse is coming.

Why we have a USB car-ready CD player, and a bunch of CDs.

At this late date, you say that? ROTFLMAO!!!

"Successful businessmen" do not have six major bankruptcies. And then there's Trump U (convicted as a fraud), Trump Steaks, Trump...

And you can listen to a whole speech by him, and tell us he's not senile and demented?

to their revenue and share price? This *is* the company keeping the US economy and the stock market afloat.

Sorry, a ad hominem would not be what I did, since I *quoted* him, and "enlightened self-interest" is a pure libertarian phrase.

WHY is there lead in them at all? And why is the quantity increasing?

Nice try. Who's paying you to post this idiocy?

Bzzzt, thank you for playing.

Had you even bothered to look, you'd have seen that the salary of the largest union, the AFL-CIO head is about $350k, less than the President of the US. "Lavish lifestyle"? Show me a big company CEO that takes down less than $1M/yr (plus stock options).

"Union contributions"? What's that, other than union dues? And *those* are typically 1%-2% of your salary, regarless of what Faux wants you to believe.
