Weird how people don’t understand the concept. Like paying a CEO of a nonprofit $500,000 a year.
Makes no sense, until you realize his value to the bottom line is 20x his salary.

He may be part of the solution, but flying private jets around is certainly part of the problem. You can't say "you all have to give up your gas guzzling muscle cars and monster trucks, but I'm still flying a private jet around when I'm not burning a ton of fuel on my private yacht that's bigger than all the houses you've ever lived in combined. Bill Gates carbon footprint dwarfs the carbon footprint of everybody on my entire block. This goes beyond hypocrisy.

Yes. That is the balance. If your private jet use results in a net reduction, then it's a win. Sacrifice the few for the many, or something of the sort.
But if you are promoting the concept, then you should LIVE the concept too. Like, reduce the carbon footprint of your software empire and your personal empire.

I'm also all for tradeoffs when possible. Like "You got an electric car? Good. Now swap out all of your household lighting for LED so your power consumption doesn't change". And stuff like that.
 
Watched the SOTU "highlights;" it's about time to scrap that format. Congress booing and shouting down a sitting POTUS - just highly unprofessional.
2017-2021 was a time where it became de rigeur to act like an @ssshole. Those new habits need to be broken.
People acting like MTG should be slapped with fines or kicked out, just like they would do to Joe Citizan for acting that way.

When you want so badly to blame Biden, you forget he wasn’t POTUS in 2020.

They don't do it Joe Citizen either. We have these idiots showing up to each others protests yelling at one another like kids on a playground arguing over a game of football. The childish behavior is embarrassing but it seems to be what the base wants. It's only a matter of time until fights break out in the halls of Congress.
 


Turkey earthquake a conspiracy. Buildings collapsing in on themselves just like a controlled demolition.






NOW what are the Clintons trying to cover up?!?!
