Who has best fastfood burger? I'm thinking of going to shake shack. I think all kiwis need to have burgers tomorrow night.
Whopper.
Uranium is extremely common. We literally aren't allowed to even prospect for it because of ecofags, but there is an insane amount of it laying around everywhere. Fun part about nuclear power is it lets you get the energy to make refining these lower grade uanium deposits cost effective. It's yet another case of Peak X retardation which has no basis in scientific fact.
I have never read anything convincing that there is enough uranium to run the US on nuclear power indefinitely. If you have a source that I don't, I'd be happy to read it.

Foreseeable future is probably more accurate. By the time uranium shortages becomes a thing, we would be colonizing other planets and probably already switched over to some other advanced form of energy creation.
 
I know there are advances being made in salt thorium reactors, but there simply is not enough uranium on Earth to keep us going on nuclear energy for more than maybe 50 years. I used to be extremely pro-nuclear energy until I found out how little material there is for it versus the amount we need.
There’s more uranium than tin. We will never run out. Plus breeder reactors would effectively give us infinite nuclear reactor grade fuel. Just with the mined depleted uranium stored in US, we could power the entire population for 500 years or more.
 
I don't think a dude (null/ross) should be blamed or bare any sort of guilt for what people using KF/The Silk Road does. It's really that simple to me!
I’m like 95% certain Ross tried to have a guy killed. Make whatever arguments about Libertarianism that you want, but attempted murder is a crime against society at large and should be dealt with.
 
This system ensures the left always wins, no matter the outcome, so obviously this is what the dems covet. Just look at Austrian, or Polish elections. There are two major parties, one big globohomo ally, one big "far-right" boogeyman, then a middling party, followed by a whole bunch of shitty little fringe parties, which only exist to suck up about 30% of the votes.
The "far-right" "wins" by 32%, the left finishes with 28%, the middling party with 10%, the rest is gobbled up by various lunatics. Everyone refuses to form a coalition with the far right, all the parties gang up against them, they cannot form a government, so the power goes to the disfunctional mish-mash of all the opposition parties, who tecnically represent 68% of the nation.
Democracy at work.

No, that's "representative democratic" oligarchy at work. Democracy at work would be, for example, the government issuing a referendum that says "Should illegal immigration be stopped and all illegal immigrants in the country be deported?" Then, if the majority of people voted "Yes", the government would be legally bound to stop illegal immigration and deport all the illegal immigrants. The same if you remove the "illegal" part from that question too.

It is difficult to know what the future looks like because all the sources I'm finding via a quick Google search talk about tin running out in 40 years and uranium running out a little bit after that; but this goes by current known deposits and rate of consumption. A lot of these sources also have a clear agenda where they want to promote recycling, sustainability, or carbon reduction. In other words, they're the equivalent of doomers for the mining industry.
 
What's going on in Hawaii? It seems there's a major strike going on in hotel chains to the point that fancy six star world class hospitals have stacked towels and toiletries in a room so guests can grab what they need .
I wasn't aware they were this pissed off days before the election. Democrats had a 30% lead in 2020, could Hawaii become a swing state?
