and radio ads that claim such should be sued to Pluto.

There was a tech slump around 1983 due to the video game crash, and again in 1992 due to mass "Glasnost" aerospace layoffs. There probably would have been one around 2009, but mobile devices were booming, taking up the slack.

Save up, the "business cycle" ain't going away.

I mean you are cherry-picking experts' opinions of that time after you know the outcome. Let's say there were 100 experts with an opinion back then. Let's say 20 predicted it was not transitory. You now quote the 20, pretending the 80 didn't exist. A propaganda trick.

A buffed Darwin Award

Yes, and that's the problem for Disney -- theme parks can only physically accept so many people per year, and they can't (easily) build more of them. So theme parks can't be more than a small amount of their total income; to really make the big money, the Mouse has to ship products that can and will be purchased by everyone. In practice, that means movies; ideally good movies, but at a minimum, popular movies.

You are cherry-picking opinions after the fact

So all the well-educated economists just magically ignored that knowledge?

Most probably thought they were talking about a TV series.

Pandemic consumer psychology was poorly mapped at the time.

Hadn't been a world pandemic since 1917, when trade was different.

> when it was obvious to anyone with a brain that [inflation wasn't transitory]

You can't predict the future, don't lie. Factory shutdown decisions in Asia probably had the biggest impact on inflation, and if you are claiming you could read all their minds...

Schools themselves should just have a period of "winter schedule" where they can get the earlier sunrise. It might confuse some, but DST already confuses some. It's better to shift school times than shift everyone's time.

Should have instead installed Win`&*[BONK!]

This is just an Orange Power Grab. Donald doesn't care about efficiency, he cares about control, his control.

NASA and JPL already outsource many services to the private sector. Military aerospace contractors often end up with the contracts, I would note. Putting another layer of privatization is a recipe for grift.

LPR surveillance is unconstitutional.

No, it is not. There is no such article in the Constitution.

If they want to use LPR information, then make it a warranting process.

Ah, you're implying, the 4th Amendment covers license plates? No, it doesn't — the license is outside in plain sight. If I can legally see it, I can record it.

Now, the very requirement to have the license plate in the first place — that seems quite bogus to me. Not unconstitutional — just wrong. There is no argument for license plates on personal vehicles on the road, that wouldn't also apply to actual persons on the same road...

Don has bruised hands so he has to use AutopenGPT
