Pretty damn sad that Russia has a better space program than we do now. Space X might be better and I guess you could consider them a government program since they're so heavily subsidized by the government but there is no good reason for NASA to not be the best considering we have (had nowadays) so many intelligent Whites/ex-Nazis working for NASA and a bigger budget.
Giving all the money to ukraine and other jews damn sure isn't helping anything.
@GabeLakmann@BowsacNoodle USA won the space race and then like the dog that catches the car, did not really know what to do with it. Space X is making progress if at a slow pace because Elon and the other principals there understand that mathematics and engineering excellence are incompatible with diversity/equity quotas.
The groids bitching in the 60s/70s/80s/90s/2000s/2010s/2020s/.... about spending money on space instead of welfare damn sure didn't help anything either.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne I was literally going to look for one. In perspective though, it would be like running some massive project today while the country is going to hell. A lot of people would be pissed I'm sure. I would be, because I no longer trust the competency of the government to deliver on anything they say.
@GabeLakmann@BowsacNoodle If you want to be depressed, the amount of money spent by Medicare/Medicade/CMS in just 2021 is the amount equal to 5 Apollo programs.
The SNAP spending for 2022 is about equal to one Apollo program.
@DemonSixOne@GabeLakmann I get angry when I think about ACA. I get furiously mad when people defend it. Regressive tax on young people that started on the heels of the great recession. Today it funds tranny meds and AIDS meds. Meanwhile, my insurance is insanely expensive and I only hit deductibles if something catastrophic happens. Very gay.
@BowsacNoodle@GabeLakmann ACA did something even worse and made the standard week for non-exempt employer codes 28 hours in order to fall under the threshold of employer contribution requirements.
@DemonSixOne@GabeLakmann Everything about it was a surrender to capitalist demands first with appeasement of the people second. Every single thing. And the Republicans who kept voting with muh principals against price locking Medicare costs into reasonable levels can eat 💩. Few of the Democrats or Republicans would consider harming big business today, except for maybe Warren and Vance, and even that's performative. Meanwhile the rest of the world just say "hey we'll give you $5 for 100 of these pills, make it work or we'll buy them from India and cut you out entirely lmao".
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne I've been trying to pound the point across to people IRL that market economies ≠ capitalism and they've existed since before them concept of fiat currency, bonds, or stonks. Capitalism is the very specific thing where you let a market economy get overtaken by a nepotistic oligarchy who influences your government once they become dependent on the tax revenue, while slowly peeling it away so the burden shifts to the population. It comes in as a symbiote and settles in as a parasite.
That, and Wal Mart probably lead the way in this kind of thing, is why so many employers don't want to hire full time workers so they can get out of paying benefits to them.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne I know it wasn't easy for them when they were younger, but it's comparably harder today IMO. Everything sucks in different ways and is more expensive with new costs they didn't have to deal with.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne The labor thing kills me. My buddy had his roof done a few months ago and called this local place and the whole crew was Guatemalans. There's like 3% Latinos in the area and all of them work roofing for this local company? Piss off.
The same people who bitch about immigrants and have enough money to pay an all White crew ( they DO exist, I've seen several of them) will cheap out and hire an illegal crew just to save money. They're such hypocrites.
It really isn't that much more to hire Whites these days and the work is so much better, plus you don't have to worry as much about them coming back a few weeks later and robbing you or stealing your stuff while you're gone.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne He went with that company because they did work for him on his prior house not even 10 years before and they did a solid job. This time it was questionable quality and they had to come back out. Gee whiz.
Yeah, I wonder what changed.. maybe the workers who did a good job the first time weren't as tanned as this time.
Also wonder if that isn't a strategy with those guys since some of them are shady shitbags.. do a good job the first time to earn their trust and then fuck em over next time around.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne I think dudes moved on to their own businesses for wanting more money and the company figured they can eat some of the cost and bring margins up hiring cheaper labor. I mean if they show up on time and do their job for less pay, I understand from a purely financial reason why. But I don't let money rule my life.
Whatever money they save in the short term will be eaten up by higher taxes since the illegals use so many government help programs, cause so much crime, and the fact that they aren't going to live around them so they'll have to pay more money to move farther away from them.
So many "business owners" these days are complete dumbasses when it comes to long term thinking and are too greedy.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne Tragedy of the commons death spiral. When purchasing power erodes so quickly, everybody wants a deal and you end up compromising. Everybody's quality expectations slowly start to drop because we've seen years of this. Eventually it's just normal for jobs to be half assed or need redone in 5 years. It's a shame.
They still make stuff that is designed to last a long time in Europe at least. Almost nothing is made like that in the USA anymore.
The jewish mindset has ruined just about everything and I'm ready for it and them to be gone forever and I don't care how it happens as long at is legal.
@GabeLakmann@DemonSixOne Boomers today: >I don't care where they immigrate from, as long as they do it LEGALLY! Millennials in 30 years: >I don't care how they remove jews from society forever as long as they do it LEGALLY!
I doubt the current globohomo jewish power system will last 30 years, but I couldn't help it.
