One of the issues I've noticed. I can say from first hand experience that many wealthy people and VC's use drugs fairly frequently. I'm sure most of these arrests involve poor people though. You never hear about the wealthy folks being busted for drugs.

If you're taken into jail, whether you're charged with anything or not and whether you're convicted of anything or not, they keep your fingerprints.

I lived near 880 in Oakland and always had massive amounts of this super fine sticky dust. They call that 880 corridor cancer corridor. My friends who lived next door who I was renting from, their son got leukemia and they think that had something to do with it.

Strongly disagree. It's Israeli, but minor difference. The US has PRISM and newer operations that are just as if not more advanced. Can you show anything China has done. That's remotely close to what the US has done in Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Indonesia, Panama, Grenada, Philippines, Japan, Yugoslavia, Laos, Cambodia, Guatemala, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, and the thousands of regime change operations the US has conducted? The US also incarcerates more people than any other country in the history of the world. We also have more murders by police than nearly any other country and far more than China. I can go on.

Things like this would be much easier to accomplish if tech workers unionized. We don't necessarily need it for compensation, although many could benefit, but having a say in what we build is incredibly important.

We had the same kinda thing in central Ohio. It's basically the same as Marion's and others around Cinci, but the Chicago tavern style is much thinner and more cracker like. If you're ever in Chicago, my favorite is a place called My Pi in Bucktown. It's my favorite pizza of all time. I visited my hometown for the first time in about 12 years right after that and got a piece of my favorite place. It's decently thicker and more chewy.

Opinions like this are largely from new cold war propaganda, but also projection. The US spys on everyone everywhere. PRISM for example. Pegasus being another.

The US has started more wars than any other country in modern history. Largely to stop socialism. The goal of Socialism is to fulfill the will of the people and benefit the working class. Socialist countries are anti-imperialist, anti-colonialist, and are supposed to be more in favor of cooperation over global dominance. Ex: The US

Of all the cities that have been rapidly expanding housing, the zero of them have become more affordable. I used to think market rate housing would bring down prices but it has proven to not. What we need are affordable housing units, price caps, rent as percentage of income, rent control, and things along those lines. Singapore and Vienna have done a good job but 70% of all housing in Vienna is government owned and 80% of all housing in Singapore was built by the government.

Walgreens made $32 billion in profit last year and they announced all of these store closings about 4 years ago. They're looking to change business models, but it's easier to blame store closures on shoplifting to save face for leaving communities. They have acknowledged this in city council hearings.

Only if you ignore the number of prominent people killed by the US government to keep them quiet. We know from court cases and declassified documents: Fred Hampton, MLK, Malcolm X, Gary Webb, Frank Olson, Collateral Murder (Chelsea Manning leak), Paul Guihard, Walter Reuther, Walter Liggett, Danny Casolaro, Mark Lombardi, and on and on. Most journalists you don't need to kill. You just ruin their careers like the NYT did to Chris Hedges when he criticized the Iraq war.
