Imagine a company where working from home was the norm. Where "flexible hours" were allowed, not just as an accommodation for employees with special circumstances, but in general.

How is this different from a company where everyone is expected to be at work 24/7, or at least during waking hours, with no way to escape from the virtual office?

People who can't work remotely have an advantage in that it is very difficult for work to follow them home. But if work is something you do at home, it is very easy for a 40 hour a week job to morph into an every-waking-moment a week job.

Because competent people are rare, and organizations where competent people are in charge and allowed to solve problems are rarer still.

People who can't do the work will always try to get in the way of the people who can.

An engagement ring is a tax men pay to get married.

Women think about what their wedding day will be like. Men think about every day that comes after.

Just another word for corruption and graft.

...any more than I believe the beer virus was naturally occurring or that Joe Biden won the election.

In the early 20th century, progressives promoted rigorous compulsory education as a way to reduce class divides.

In the early 21st century, faux-progressive Gramscian whores pretend that such education makes class divides worse.

If they goal of the whores was to destroy opportunities for those from modest backgrounds, what would they be doing differently?

He's a communist.

Communism does not work.

Communists murdered at least 100 million people in the 20th century alone.

The people who are eager to vote for him are first rate fools.

Just what I was going to say.

What's next, lawsuits against XM for destruction of the luminiferous aether?

Or maybe a suit against a logging company for destroying the habitats of unicorns?

It must be nice to be able to say views you don't agree with are 'crimes against humanity'. I wish my conscious didn't make me attempt to be intellectually honest.

> Because you would voluntarily hand over your money to repave the roads or build bridges, right?

(Going to ignore the idea that the government must build the roads) But yeah, why wouldn't i? I don't have a problem paying for food or drink. Or my entertainment. Or my car. Not sure why you think roads would be different. In fact, I'm rather fond of tolling(some privacy concerns though). I travel on a major freeway twice a day. Why shoulnd't I pay more than someone who uses that freeway once a month?

> All the things you take for granted which are delivered by the government

Most all the things i REALLY take for granted are provided by capitalism.

Driving is the most dangerous thing we do in our daily lives. Also probably biggest direct interaction with government laws and infrastructure. It's not a coincidence.

Conservatives and Republicans are commonly slandered as racists and bigots and any other number of terrible things by the left on a continual basis. The left keeps repeating this lie in the hope that it will be believed, and it is by the fools who fall for it.

Now the leftists are putting their money where their mouth is and actively spending time and resources to pretend that the incoming Republican president is somehow out to get them.

Such histrionics are only possible for people who have it easy. People who actually had to work hard for a living could not afford the luxury of such fake outrage.

It's a legacy language.

...

OK then, what are the current alternatives?

where is good old clevernickname.

Doesn't matter. You have virtually no rights at the border.
