Oh Pierre, this is what happens when you get your ‘news’ and ‘facts’ from whacko conspiracy theorists. 😳
The average electric vehicle has six times more mineral content than an internal combustion vehicle – and all those metals need to be dug, scraped, blasted, and leached out of the earth. youtube.com/watch?v=dEMKVF… EVs will sell more cars but do nothing to save the earth, in the end.
10/10 no notes.
Why Is Rent So Damn High? The Real Reason May Shock You youtube.com/watch?v=cwlwrZ… an anti-competitive housing cartel colluding with big landlords to algorithmically rig the rental market by illegally setting prices (price fixing) #housingmarket #housingcrisis
feel like late stage capitalism has gotten so bad that many young women and girls believe that the solution to their exhaust is being dependent on a man when it really is universal basic income.

If the wealthy were taxed properly. And that money went into affordable housing + UBI instead of pipelines. Then there would be less people living in poverty. This would lessen the pressure on health care. And lifting people out of poverty is the RIGHT THING TO DO.
Why does the US dictate to the world how to live when the US can't even take care of its own people?
WATCH: @JustinTrudeau shows Pierre Poilievre how to be a responsible leader 🔥
THE TRUTH VS. ALEX JONES on Max is a masterclass in dissecting how an amoral sociopath turned 90's era paranoia into a machine that grinds up human beings for profit. Jones and his cronies took the pain of the Sandy Hook parents and warped it to sell vitamins. And he still is.
So my friends, a small thread on my saltiness of late about Canada's slide into the vacuous, populist, rage farming anti-Canadian state of politics. And anyone who pushes outright propaganda, disinformation and narratives that somehow Canada is broken.

Physicians are not going to leave Canada because of capital gains. We make our money by primarily working, not from investing.
@elonmusk Simplest way to explain X is that this tweet 👆is propaganda. X is not a news site. It’s a social media platform owned and controlled by one person—with massive interests in many businesses and regions his platform has influence over Truth is not necessarily equal to or…
We’re making the wealthiest pay a little more, so we can deliver for every generation. Listen to @JustinTrudeau’s full interview here 👇 vox.com/today-explaine…
Paying everyone dividends from wealth we all have a moral claim to - whether that's natural resources, social wealth funds, or AIs trained on our data - is how we achieve Keynes' vision of 20-hour workweeks. It's how we achieve a Star Trek economy.
So, the Poilievre position on taxation is that the middle- and working-classes should take on all of the tax burden for society because if we try to tax the super-wealthy or corporations they'll leave Canada. Fuck that. #CdnPoli

Now, before you say it, the Mincome experiment and other experiments of the 70s were called "negative income tax experiments" and Friedman himself said, near the end of his life, that NIT and basic income were two ways of doing the same thing. He would also join @BasicIncomeOrg
For those who cry "socialism!" and "communism!" at the idea of basic income, here is the guy most associated with free market capitalism, Milton Friedman. In this, he describes the negative income tax. #BasicIncome #UBI #Cdnpoli #yyj
