Ban non-compete. Impose steep taxes on companies earning American profits with less than 95% American labor.

It was politicized because the hall monitors and moral busybodies (we all remember who they were and what they were like before the pandemic too) tried to force people to pick between getting it or starving.

Covid restrictions were significantly worse in the EU than USA, your government locked you all down and made it clear that they decide who works and who doesn’t. To be clear, the USA has some awful cities with those types of ideas too but it was far more rare. EU, Canada, and Australia showed they are teetering towards authoritarian surveillance states more than they are democracy. The more people put their head in the sand and justify these actions with the talking points they receive from the overlords, the more the water starts to boil.

Are you actually open to being convinced or are you going to justify every example of those governments compelling and controlling speech?

Canada and the EU certainly don’t care about free speech.

EU continues its descent into an authoritarian surveillance state. I hope all the EU netizens wake up and realize how much more control the EU has been exerting over its citizens since the pandemic.

This is why the tyrants would go a step further to try to ban private education so that you can only be educated by a state. They openly say this is what they want.

It is very interesting how their worldview is claimed to be better yet it cannot compete on a level playing field and must instead force its way to the top by making things worse for others and taking away their opportunities. It's crabs in a bucket politics.

Progressive left are liars and should not be trusted. Their actions are opposite of their words. We need to vote in people who have and use their brains, instead of activists and idealogues. Otherwise the entire nation will collapse. Johnson is a clown and clowns too are the people who voted him in, assuming that any actual voting takes place in Chicago.

Some students are brighter than other students. Some students will out perform other students and therefore they deserve better and more opportunities. Get over it.

Nothing wrong with being a married housewife. It’s callous to write with a connotation that suggests there is. In fact the best argument is that children need and should have their mother around as much as possible especially in their formative years. Children aren’t a status symbol or a car or a pet.

If they as a culture are no longer willing or able to reproduce, this means they have had their time under the sun. This technology is evil and will lead to immense evil. It is an abomination.

This should be banned everywhere.

Doing it at the family level or between neighbors who like each other and agree to share from victory gardens and greenhouses and personal farms is much different than what the parent proposed. Multi-generational family compounds are an awesome idea. This also solves retirement issues for the elderly.
