January 20th 2025 - Donald Trump is BACK!

[Otto]

“A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.”
Address to a Joint Session of Congress
August 12, 1974

Terrible analogies. The solution is not to cut jobs dealing with safety of the American people. The solution is to re-hire people in those positions:

FDA hiring 2,200 people after DOGE job cuts in 2025

Acting officials say around 600 new employees are in the onboarding process, with hiring picking up pace in recent weeks

The government is supposed to be by the people, and for the people. This government is for the ultra rich:

Trump dwarfs predecessors in the number of ultra-rich in his second White House

The number of people worth at least $100 million is more than four times the combined total under the three previous presidents

Example - Trump recently said only the smart communities want data centers in their communities.

Meaning - you’re not as intelligent and ignorant if you don’t want these data centers in your backyard. His voters hate these things. They are loud - increase your energy cost - use a lot of water - and who knows what kind of other harmful effects they bring.

But these things are great for the ultra rich, and they are not building these things in their backyards (that’s for sure).

Maybe you think that, as outsiders, we have enough information to second-guess the decisions that are being made.
I don’t.

My job is to vote in the people that will make the best decisions once they have the inside information. I believe that I accomplished that.
No one else running stood a chance to do it half as well.

If people who are providing services are making obscene profits, I can live with that until someone comes along to do it better.
It beats funding jokers like Zelenskyy, et al and the congress-critters that they have been rewarding.

Maybe safety should be taken away from government?

I too would prefer rich people over regular. There are many good reason. Average rich would be more competent, capable and less corruptible are Average Joe.

How do you know this isn't commie sabotage of US economy. Maybe issues aren't that problematic.

By the way, Russia did finance greens in Europe. And look at results.

I read that Musk wants to build space-based data centres that use solar power. How's that creating a problem in your back yard?

I do not understand this visceral hatred for data centers. They sound like a win/win to me.

I’m fairly confident that the pushback is funded by China trying to hinder our technological advantage.

I am finding this dialogue helpful in this video May be it will be neat to witness two opposing steel man argument which is what happened in this discussion.
