Food prices are dropping across the board, but we have these companies wanting to “rightsize supply,” a PR-friendly way of saying “produce less food to make it more expensive again.”
Given this seems to be impacting meat producers the most, you have to wonder if there may be some long-term trends appearing they’re keeping their heads in the sand about.
I should add I do eat meat, but wouldn’t in a million years buy meat from Butterball, Cargill, Tyson, or the like.
Yes, every non-capitalist country throughout history has been a beacon of peace lmao
Humans are human. Capitalism is absolutely a driver of some conflict, but conflict is driven not only by economic interests, but also political, ethnic, religious, and other interests.
Despite there being no evidence at for what you’re claiming here, if you think about it for a second, you’d realize the spike protein isn’t some sort of artificial substance being put into your body by a vaccine, but is atom for atom identical to the spike proteins found on different variants of covid.
If you get sick with covid, your body contains unfathomably more spike proteins than you would get from a hundred covid immunizations. And, if you’ve gotten an immunization, your immune system can keep the amount of virus in your system much lower.
It’s ok to just not like the idea of the covid immunizations. Making stuff up to try to justify your belief, however…
Bennett was a badass bad guy. Commando is a badass movie.
“I’m not going to shoot you between the eyes. I’m going to shoot you between the balls.”
I think there were a number of power users for whom that was the case
It’s always en vogue to report on every batshit-crazy bill filed by Republicans in the Texas legislature, and while there’s genuinely some terrible legislation that gets passed, the Texas Legislature is where bills go to die, and this will definitely be one that dies. This bill will never get out of committee, and this headline is a lie.
You can think whatever you want. That’s not true though
Turns out dogs are perfectly fine eating milk chocolate. I know this because I had a dog who jumped up on a table and ate an entire package of Hershey’s kisses once. We thought she was a goner, but poison control said she’d be fine and she was. High quality dark chocolate is what poisons dogs
To this point, not being direct and being overly concerned with what other people think could even be directly driving OP’s issue
you can’t brick my cat
Is this a challenge
Much better choice than Thin Mints. Thin Mints…blech
Just tie them up to some elephants and drag them across the Caucasus. Hannibal did it 2000 years ago, surely Russia is more skilled than ancient Carthage
This isn’t a large corporation fighting a little guy, these are extremely wealthy people fighting each other. There’s no one involved in this who can’t afford to pay the best attorneys to fight as long as it takes
Turns out an irrevocable trust is…irrevocable.
“What was life like before Wikipedia?”
“Well, you see, in the year 7000 BC…”
TIL the entirety of recorded human history was just a transition period between the oral tradition and Wikipedia lmao
I worked in a hospital for a long time and oversaw an entire team of people whose only job was to interface and argue with insurance companies. For my small hospital, we had 7 people doing this averaging $85-$90K per year each.
And don’t get me started on unfunded care. Since we live in Texas, which has not expanded Medicaid, there are a ton of people who end up in the hospital with no insurance and who will never pay a cent because they literally can’t. Hospitals try to make up that funding gap by raising rates on everyone who does pay. We’re already paying for other people’s healthcare this way, I wish we would just nationalize health insurance and eliminate insurance companies entirely.
Look dude, I’m not here to argue about the US’s absolutely fucked foreign policy, and in absolutely no fucking way am I saying any one conflict is not driven in whole or in part by capitalism.
But “Capitalism is the primary driver of wars” is a fundamentally false statement. Just because it’s a driver of some or even most modern conflicts does not make it “the primary driver of wars.” War is a well documented and studied social phenomenon that predates capitalism by thousands of years, maybe millions. Fucking chimpanzee tribes war with each other. There are thousands upon thousands of wars throughout human history that prove your statement wrong.
