Artificial kidneys are in the test phases. Not sure when they’ll enter trials but it’s very complicated.

The way to solve this is union busting needs to be a criminal offense.

I think you may be on to something. That may be a better way to describe it.

If you consider taxing the rich. Unions and attacking companies as far right then sure. He’s always been far right. It sounds like you’ve never read about Vance and that’s why you don’t see the radical change from who he was to supporting Trump.

His mentor says hillbilly elegy was written to propel him into politics. So I find it hard to believe he wasn’t interested when that was the reason for the book

The mods deleted the admins comment and tried to ban him from the community. That’s a no no in my book.

If the mods felt rooki was wrong, they shouldn’t have tried to display a power trip with their actions. They should have escalated to other admins.

Rooki deescalated by removing them as mods. That stopped their childish behavior.

I am very much against theft but if you are forced to check yourself out, I consider it wages.

I have no issues with mistakes happening in self check.

@lwadmin For full disclosure I agree with rooki on this topic.

I may have missed it in the write up but I think the vegan mods needlessly escalated the situation by trying to ban and remove comments from an admin.

I am not saying I always agree with rooki but I respect his job as an admin.

The mods of vegan treated him disrespectfully in his capacity as an admin by deleting and banning him.

You should cover this in your terms of service.

Agreed. I have no issues with capitalism but I have a huge issue with monopolies. Just buying out the competition isn’t competing.

They’re just excited the person isn’t half dead.

She wasn’t able to get a nomination through the standard channels. They had to put her in the back because they felt she was damaging Biden approval ratings.

He approval rate is low.

More people disprove than approve.

I proudly voted for Obama Kamala is not Obama. She’s not Clinton. Hell she’s not even a Joe Biden.

The president isn’t in charge of COVID. States are in charge of COVID. Pandemics are handled by the states with help from the federal government. BLM protest are once again state issues. I’m not sure why so many Americans don’t understand how the government is run. Presidents are not dictators. They are limited by the constitution and laws.

No why is the split so close? Harris isn’t a good candidate. She’s wildly unpopular and has been for years. He policies are horrible and the average American doesn’t want them. They are the opposite of what Americans want.

Biden has always been fairly unpopular. I’ve always thought the guy was an idiot but he isn’t far left. He fairly moderate to Leaning a little right.

We also have a large red/blue divide in this country and presidents are picked by the EC.

Trump is a horrible candidate but things ran well when he was in office. People will remember that.

The short version is we are running two awful candidates and that’s why the elections are close.
