    @2SpiritCherokeePrincess We have reactors now, though they aren't in use inside the US in a power creating capacity at the moment, that can use up to 95% of the Fissile material in Uranium, which moved that 10,000 down to about 200 years. @CyanHide Is it true you can't buy a 40oz, but you can...

    I don't blame you. Poetry is the one aspect of creative English that you absolutely cannot force people into or to do and yet 4 fucking years of my English classes tried to ham-fist it in between Ethan Frome and shitty books about the Holocaust.

    @readingsit I saw that and promptly wished I didn't.

    @Mielly Bold of you to assume Macron is going to push for any position that isn't a spineless NeoLib position.

    @Mielly To be honest, and this isn't an insult, there are two countries in Europe who have the tone that conveys they think they are better than Americans and the British are 'polite' about it so... French.

    Most of these should be public access if you follow directly to the journal, unless you still have access to a college library. https://academic.oup.com/ej/article/115/507/F419/5086037...

    @Mielly Are you French? Obviously you don't have to respond but you just strike me as French. Also @bigtiddyoneesan I have some of the Book reviews for Mielly's book if you are interested in checking them out. They tend to be less than 5-15 pages mostly. Nothing against you Mielly on doing...

    Alright y'all, I've gotten through the rest of Fascism for the Millions (quick read, its about 65 pages) and I have a few things that I was able to take away from it in totality. But first I want to go in and further explain what I meant by my earlier points, specifically concerning why I could...

    So I've been reading Fascism for the Millions by Oswald Mosely and I have this to say thusfar; 1) I get immediately why people throw fascists and socialists into the same relative camp, as many of the views are basically identical (Granted that's by comparing it to what is in Mao's Red Book)...

    @Mielly Talking like this doesn't make you look smart or like you are interested in friendly discussion. Keep it civil.

    @readingsit Don't forget there is technically a control on onions. It's illegal to trade onion futures in the market. Plus rent control, which does exist in several areas still. List of federally owned enterprises Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC)[1] Corporation for National and Community...

    @Mielly If you have any other ones you would recommend I would go ahead and list them but I've seen some concerning stuff said about Steve Keen. There a way you would recommend reading his book or just read it normally?

    @readingsit Lol it's fine, though I feel like that would require a mute function to be something people can use. I'm sure there are lots of times where people just don't want their notifications blown up. Kaldrak would probably be first in line to ask for that as I'm fairly certain at least five...

    Wow, I get a notification and I'm not even called out in it. I don't know how to feel.

    @Kaldrak That just proves my point about the Feds, they were given recommendations but weren't told that they were noncompliant. That is the entire issue I have been trying to get you to understand, the Feds never told Texas there was anything they had to do, only things they should do. And the...

    @Kaldrak You don't seem to understand what it was they were saying. Texas' electrical grid still had to comply with Federal Regulations and is still regulated by the Federal Government. Just because they have their own grid and their own state level regulatory body doesn't change the fact they...

    @wowfucktron Libertarians have the issue of being fundamentally unable to provide a unified answer people want to hear concerning important questions. Nobody wants to hear "Foreign wars wouldn't be an issue with a Libertarian president" when you are already involved in two. Its the same reason...

    @Kaldrak Mississippi and Oregon had places losing power precisely because of that. And that doesn't necessarily cover the extremely bad energy policy that has come out of California either. Most of their energy that comes from out of state is made with Fossil Fuels. This was after they shut...
