Convenient scapegoats so the admin media puppets can blame the past two years of failures on women


Shut the fuck up you senile turtle, you CREATED this.


He also hopes to slip away without us noticing the tens of billions of dollars he is siphoning off.


Well now you know who got the Flock kickbacks and free dinners to vote yes on their contract.


Oh that’s why he did it.


Colorado’s Primary isn’t until June 30th. Hope this guy gets his ass tossed right out of the party for the primary, because he should.


Sort of wrong metric. It gets weird in China because of the blurred lines between their government and private enterprise.
China’s official government debt is only 98% of GDP so slightly lower than the US right now and a lot less than the US is projected to be by end of 2026 (125%).
However China’s total debt, which includes both public-private enterprise (which their government effectively controls), and household debt, is around 330% of GDP. A lot of people use the total debt figure since it makes more sense for their economic structure but it’s not really “right”.
If we want to take the USA by the same metric, the government debt of 124% pales in comparison to the US total debt of… 719%.
Except that’s 600% of private enterprise and household/consumer debt which is not really government controlled and does not have a direct impact on the government’s solvency.


HFC’s are also used extensively in manufacturing, especially in anything that involves an insulating foam as it is used as a blowing agent


Fym “borderline”??


At some point OPEC will increase supply and the situation in Venezuela will stabilize
OPEC spare capacity has been a myth for quite some time even when it’s not shut in by transport problems, and Venezuela oil is not suitable for most world refineries and requires a shitton more expensive refining as it is extremely heavy, thick and sour. Neither can realistically make up the Hormuz deficit until infrastructure either bypasses Hormuz, or Venezuela begins domestically refining again, which will likely take 3-5 years with how decayed and sabotaged all their existing infrastructure is right now.
We are straight up headed for an oil cliff worse than 1973.


Where does oil come from for the rest of the world?
It doesn’t- demand destruction and economic recession is the result.
Reserves are being drawn at a crazy rate right now to compensate for Hormuz being closed, but that will collapse by the end of June and there will be some huge price spikes and physical shortages. The world economy will need to contract by 5% or more to stop using the oil lost by Hormuz until alternative pipllelines open, supply chains begin de-fossilizing, and alternstive supplies take up the slack with multi year leadtimes.
Next two years are gonna be really fucking bad.


ALPR’s have been proven constitutional because you have no “reasonable right to privacy” in a public place. US courts already hashed this out in the 90s and state that being tracked in public is not a 4th amendment violation- which is 100% total bullshit, but the police state isn’t going to take power away from itself. Despite these systems now going above and beyond traditional ALPR systems- police pigs will hide behind the same rulings.


luckily for you, the cloud ALPR systems like Flock also identify make, model, color, occupants, and any identifying features like dents, bumper stickers, roof racks, etc


There’s a bunch of memes floating around normie social media about hantavirus being covid 2.0. I guess with enough mental illness that can be misconstrued into there being a hantavirus lockdown.


“Improper and warrantless” but useful to the State.


Understandable


Hence why I said no car made past 2010… Its in the comment.


As well as government remote disable and always-on corporate tracking!!!1!1
Until I can kit my 1991 Accord with a wholly owned conversion I will not be touching one, nor any other car built later than 2010.
That would be the exact reason trump would tear it down with glee.
