It does, but it has a cost and that cost is your future income.
If I buy something now for $1,000 and I pay a 20% APY over the course of 5 years. So initially I only have to pay $26.49/mo and I get something worth $1,000. However, at the end of five years I've spent $1,589.63. So, yes I did just pluck $1k out of thin air for me to buy something, but now I'm gonna pay almost $600 over the next five year.

If I keep doing that I keep committing my future earnings and reduce what I can spend later. That $50k car, that $600,000 house. That $15,000 vacation. It all adds up and suddenly you run out of money because everything is committed to monthly payments.

It's a bit like where our federal government is right now. Their biggest expense is interest and it's only going to get bigger.

"Instead, he said, it could run fewer, fuller flights with higher ticket prices. He said many flights were only taken because they were so cheap: “We know that a lot of air transport demand is induced. If you increase the cost, people would just choose a different type of holiday.”

The goal is to make it so only the wealthy can enjoy the world and we are all kept in our little corner.

Truth. First come, first served.

That would be called a raid, not an invasion.

Even in a capitalist society, the government is no match for the public sector. The federal government controls $7 TRILLION in spending a year. There isn't a single corporation in the WORLD that even does a trillion in revenue a year. With Walmart and Amazon coming closest at almost $700 billion. There are only four companies in the WORLD with more than one million employees (Walmart, Amazon, State Grid Corporation of China and China National Petroleum Corporation). The US Government has 5 million direct employees (Federal, Military, USPS) and if you expanded it to contractors it is probably closer to 10 million.

Long story short, if you want power, money and control, the US government is the place to get it...not the private sector.

Your definition is a bit circular.

Invasion - what someone does when they invade

Let's look up what it means to invade.
Invade - (of an armed force or its commander) enter (a country or region) so as to subjugate or occupy it. "it was all part of a grander French plan to invade Ireland"

The key difference between a military invasion and a raid is the intent regarding territory: an invasion aims to capture and hold ground, while a raid involves entering enemy territory for a specific purpose and then quickly withdrawing.

The US raided Venezuela for the purpose of capturing Maduro. We did not invade Venezuela with the intent of making it the 53rd state (after Canada and Greenland).

It's not reached the education system. My kid is struggling though A Tale of Two Cities right now so I'm of two opinions. The stories that schools assign totally suck. That said, you gotta learn how to grind through the suck.

Right, you get it back when you bring your trash down. Seems simple.

This is the way. Just up the cost until people either take their crap down with them to save money, or there is enough money to hire folks to take the crap down. It's crazy that folks can't figure this out. The climb is at capacity anyways, so it's not like their lose climbers.

No one is complaining about a company replacing one employee. We are talking about coming into a company, laying off the entire IT department except one lucky manager who gets to be the translator between the Indian offshoring company and the c-suite execs. I've personally been a part of an action like that. A few years later my former company no longer exists, so I guess there is that.

Then you have no options and no freedom....just a walled garden where every move you make can be MONETIZED.

Fixed that for you. Watching is just a bonus, the real goal is monetization.

Someone marked this as a troll, but I'll be straight up honest, huge fight in our homeschooling community over the assassination of Charlie Kirk. It let to all mention of any religious curriculum being banned at events and folks getting banned who mention religion on our message board. You can believe me or not, but I ain't trolling.

This is why I refuse to get rid of my 1974 Ford F150 and have expanded my homestead garden to almost an acre while I moved out to the country three years ago. The only way to stop this is going to be to fry every electrical device on the planet. I only hope we'll be able to launch the nukes in time.

Surprisingly, almost all homeschoolers in our area are liberal. You would be shocked at how many liberals homeschool. You have a highly outdated idea of homeschooling.
