So does folk... It's completely ungendered, and it's definition is 'people in general' or 'people generally'. Nothing in its etymology is gendered. Regardless of how we present, we're still a person, and part of 'people in general'.

Weird you'd exclude groups from 'people in general' based on how they present, and weird to read. This faux inclusiveness really does the opposite, you're highlighting and seperating trans people into a seperate category when no one else was even thinking that, and they were included to begin with. You're creating the barrier with it, not tearing one down.

The stock buy backs show that the funding was, at least in part, unnecessary. They structured themselves purposely to not have cash in a downturn, and the stock buy backs show clearly that that was a decision.

People are pissed of that businesses who didn't need financial help got it, while those who do need help, largely are not getting it. Businesses who chose to hold no cash despite having the ability are getting free cash which they're using for personal gains rather than survival, while individuals who didn't make that choice and just can't afford to save are suffering hugely.

Don't pretend it's people being just anti business. It's anti bail outs for companies that purposely set themselves up to need bail outs, and that we allow companies to do that, effectively stealing our taxes for share value, while individuals who through no fault of their own are fucked, don't get shit.

No, it isn't.

Taxing their externalities is the easiest and most effective way to reduce corporate output. Taxing them for their pollution is by far the most effective way to reduce it.

too many weird and dangerous ingredients in almost every vaccine.

Like what?

What has made you think this?

I put to you that this isn't true at all, and you've been mislead by people who don't understand vaccines or chemistry.

Do you think even a single person in the US will literally starve over this? You can probably afford a lifetime of rice by selling your phone.
