> People went from desiring to build value, to desiring to extract value

That's standard human behavior.

The difference is that in good times created by strong men, they don't put up with it and you don't get away with it.

Unfortunately we are not living in the good times created by strong men..

I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation,

..?

But what is it?

Someone needs to run an investigation to ensure the fire departments involved were sufficiently diverse..

> Are US houses typically made of wood?

Yes.

And you aren't going to believe what many apartment buildings are made of..

If the winners write the history books,

..then what have they lied about?

Without knowing the numbers, I'm fairly sure Facebook is dying, and they are trying to reverse that.

It's about money, not principles.

"Super duper" pardons, for anything that is not covered by a current pardon that grants the receiver three more pardons to use on themselves at a time of their choosing in the future.

If country A engages in "dumping" (funded by the government) then country B will not produce those items at a profit, and so they will not produce it.

If there is consumer demand for the widget, and tariffs are applied to prevent dumping, then country B will begin producing that widget for profit, assuming free markets exist.

I understand the argument against tariffs, and I agree in the vacuum of economic theory, but the reality is that tariffs are used as a tool and a weapon by every country, and I find it naive at best to expect the United States to abstain while everyone else maximizes tariffs to their advantage.

Imagine trying to mastermind a victory over a superpower while your army lacks provisions, and having to take time out of your day to deal with Thomas Hickey smh

How can a Libertarian assert that companies should not organize however they want (corporation)?

Sometimes people use their right to free speech to share opinions and ideas that are not allowed.

An interesting insight into this is the guy who sold Minecraft or whatever millions or billions has gone on to talk about how meaningless endless wrath is now that he has it.

Reddit being Reddit.

Now expand the implications to every upvoted opinion on the site..

There is an effect in video games where "god mode" causes players to lose interest in the game.

It's fun at first, bit ultimately it removes the sense of meaning from the game.

The mystery is gone.

Same goes for much of modern life, and this underlies much of the mental health crisis.

Humans need mystery and challenge and goals and community and growth and trials.

Everything is on demand. Everything is instant, and all encompassing. Welcome to the Internet.

> Why is the Government facilitating press tours of the accused's home?

If there is a reasonable answer to this, I'd love to hear it..
