iirc hitler really had no intention of any prolonged warfare with the british, as he would've been completely content with allowing them to retain their colonial empire, as long as he had europe
this is part of why his plans didn't quite pan out, as he anticipated the british would sign a peace after france and poland were rolled over, allowing hitler to subjugate the east

The Japanese and Italians carving up the British Empire was part of the plan from the get-go.

Healthcare will likely go through a bust period once enough of the aging population dies off. The industry itself will always be needed because health problems affect everyone, but the highest healthcare bills people have in their lifetime are when they reach old age. By old age, more prescriptions are used, hospital visits become more frequent, and installations of in-home mobility aids are more common. Then you have the choice of live-in nurses or hospice depending on severity of problems, and money available. Once enough of a threshold of the elderly die off, there will be cuts to healthcare related jobs, as there will be fewer people needing those services. This entire process will probably take another twenty years to come to fruition, but the healthcare industry takes for granted the amount of dying elderly they have, as the only generation to be near the size of the boomers are the millennials.

I wonder if Millennials will be more comfortable just dying off instead of grasping onto life with drug cocktails. I knew a few WWII vets who explicitly avoided hospitals and doctors and shit late in life because they weren’t really afraid of dying.

I'm glad people are catching on to Faggy Massie's constant excuses, and he sounded like an emotional bitch today. It's a bad showing when you make me pick Bondi over you.

Thomas Massie's being a fucking heel was not something I had on my bingo card this cycle, but I'm glad that these fucking morons are finally showing their true colors.

Yeah I mean he didn't really want war with Britain. Even France, let's be hoenst, he invaded France at least in part because of the Expeditionary Forces the British put on the border. And he wanted friendship with Anglo world, but he also predicted that if he did go to war with England, Germany would fight until England was destroyed.

he invaded france because france had declared war on germany and invaded and occupied parts of southwest germany over the german invasion of poland

My favorite find was a jeep with the steering wheel on the right side for $2k and the only issue with it was that the back of the seats has crayon drawing in them. It was seized in a drug bust.

Also for anyone wanting to make it easier, there is a website that even has an app. Just search your state publicsurplus.com/

I looked at this site. It's pretty neat. One question though: what are the odds I can actually buy something from these guys? I looked in my area and every single auction -- literally every one within 100 miles -- has one current bid (at the lowest price), all from the same account/bidder, with 8+ years of 100% positive reviews and no negative feedback.

So, like, is this just money laundering, kickbacks/revolving-door style procurement, or is it really just the case that only one dude knows this secret in my region and he's just scoring endless cheap gear?

TL;DR: Trump is a Pagan because his Chief Jew said that the strong shall rule over the weak:
New York Times dijo:
In a recent interview with Jake Tapper, Stephen Miller said, “We live in a world in which you can talk all you want about international niceties and everything else, but we live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power.”

To sympathetic ears, Mr. Miller sounded refreshingly unsentimental and cleareyed. But the “niceties” he disparaged aren’t just some naïve fantasy. They are the values of Christianity, the faith the Trump administration purports to defend and uphold.

After defeating Melos in a siege, Athens slaughtered the island’s men and enslaved its women and children. Such was the nature of the ancient world, a world that was, to borrow Mr. Miller’s words, devoid of “niceties” and “governed by power.”

Unironically? Offer euthanasia subsidies to the Alzheimer's patients and anyone over the age of 80 on medicare. Theres little value in keeping these people alive since they just consume SS and government gibs which goes right back into keeping their husk of a shell existing in space and time without contributing to anyone else except healthcare companies.

Don't believe all Alzheimer's patients would be considered mentally competent to make that decision.

Someone over the age of 80 on Medicare has the same right to live that you have. Many of those people worked throughout their working lives, have families, earned any benefits they get. A number of those people are still active, they're grandparents, some do other things, make contributions. Am in my eighth decade myself.

Perhaps a better idea would be to immediately carry out every death sentence on state and Federal prisoners sentenced to death. Very expensive to keep someone locked up. That would surely save money.

The problem with forcing people to have an ID to vote is you now placed a price on being able to vote which is meant to be a constitutional right.

Most states don't offer a no-fee form of ID which might not fulfill the new requirements. There's no free federal ID. So this bill really needed to come with a way for American citizens to get that ID for free. Otherwise fundamentally it just sets the precedent that your constitutional rights can be locked behind a price tag.

Voting is not a right and should not ever be considered a right, it is a power. Name me a single other actual right that involves you having power over other people. You don't have the right to make other people listen to you because the 1st, you don't have the right to threaten people because the 2nd. But for some reason everyone should have the power to vote on who wields the monopolized threat of violence that is the state.
