As stupid as his demands are, there are some in the Republican leadership who will want to accept them.

None of it was "revealed by god". It's all by men to control other men and women.

Well they probably don't work real well on things that don't grow.

No idea, but I'm guessing the hourly charge was similar.

Can't lose what you never had...

I don't doubt that you did. Just wondering why you're wasting any sympathy on a rapist, sociopathic, habitually lying, convicted felon. One who has his own jet, so flying down to Florida and back to pick up the gun would be easier for him than travelling across town would be for our hypothetical trailer park felon.

I think that fairness means the law applies equally to everyone. If the felon is an unemployed man living in a trailer park and he owns a gun which he's left at his mother's trailer park across town, would the judge give him more than 14 days leeway to go get it? There is no difference.

What, so he deserves more leeway than other convicted felons with firearms? Why?

If you're going to go, and you're getting a beer, there's nothing wrong with the sentence.

Russia is a kleptocracy not communist. Putin is just the biggest gangster. Hitler may have formed/taken over the National Socialist party, but he was a fascist. You're correct in that the lines have blurred. Possibly now they are "for the people" (left) or "for the billionaires" (right).

Try a different instructor. It may have been him, not you.

The Shire, I reckon. Wouldn't be surprised if her surname is Baggins.

You may have noticed I said "right wing AND despotic leaders" - yes despots on the left also do it but it seems far more common from the right wingers.

It's populism, pure and simple. Blame the "other" for everything that's going wrong in the country. Worked for Hitler and is the continuing playbook for all right wing and despotic leaders from that time on.

That's true, but it's not the reason for building companies to go out of business. They've already factored in the increased costs and pass those on. The things they can't control are material shortages (leading to higher costs) and delivery delays of the materials. I would also argue that a well designed house can still meet disability and energy efficiency requirements without being heaps more expensive than one that doesn't. It's down to the quality of the design and the skill of the builder. Simple things like appropriate overhangs and shading from northern sun, size / placement / type of windows, passive solar and good R value insulation will make homes a lot more efficient than the 1970's shacks. I'd also argue that these things make a home far more livable - ie not freezing in winter and boiling in summer, as well as not having huge energy bills to heat and cool - than the entry level 2br weatherboards! (I used to live in a weatherboard built in 1890.)

Something suspicious is afoot with that photo.

They may like tips here, but they don't expect them. As Peter said, they NEED them in the US to survive. At least we have minimum wages for service staff here.

If Trump wins, the refugees fleeing the US will be a better class of people

Funny thing, KFC about 35 years ago tasted better than today's - probably had MSG or something in it. In 2006 we went to Poland and their KFC tasted like Australia's in the old days.

Any dangerous /explosive bits can be removed or made safe.

Signed. I think it's a crying shame that they scrap these aircraft instead of giving them to museums (or Ukraine!) It'd be a good idea to post this in Rec Flying too Willedoo. There's a lot of people over there who'd be on your side, who don't necessarily look at Social Australia.
