I have a cousin who is a farmer in the US and also has to have a second job. He probably has millions invested in machinery, but last time I talked to him about it he said for the cost of the equipment to really make sense he needs more land to farm. Right now he has unused capacity.
I'm in sales and have seen the strategy discussed where if you're trying to sell a product to an institution with a formal bidding process to coach your contact to draw up requirements which only your product can meet.
Total bullshit in multiple dimensions and it should never even be considered. That said, as a former bible student turned atheist, if they're going to have bibles in school a good option would be NRSV, or the funny option would be The Cotton Patch bible.
I bet this was it. James Trafficant was a congressman who used to end his speeches by saying "Beam me up" which I understand was a way to say "this shit is crazy / out of this world"
If you run your own server (like a country would in this case) you're the one deciding whether things are allowed to be posted. Of course that doesn't stop other people from blocking you. But the whole idea is as a sovereign country a private corporation shouldn't have a say over which posts are seen.
So people who don't live in swing states should vote third party until there's enough of them that the state is in danger of going to trump (or whoever)? If they're successful at some point that's a threat.
How do we actually get third party candidates to win, not just "oh, Ross Perot Jr got 3% of the vote"?
However you slice it, we're looking at like a 20 year struggle minimum to get election reform, and it would be at least the same length to elect a third party candidate to the office of president, but that's a one off thing. (Or more likely that third party would be the new one of two parties)
If we're committed to the struggle of improving things, we might as well improve a reusable process rather than have a single go at a third party presidential candidate.
I assume you're getting down voted because of AI use but I don't mind it in this case because I think it's a useful starting point for "how many big holidays are we talking about"
Lol I can't wait to hear everyone recite their respective pledges at the same time
