It is called reinsurance. Monty Python made a film about it called The Crimson Permanent Assurance.

You see there is this company called Blackrock and then there is the separate company called Blackstone each one of them owns 49% of the worlds assets but DONT WORRY they are completely separate as per required by international court cases. They are so big that a company like Blackstone who focuses on leveraged buyouts and the real estate market has a hard time finding someone to provide reinsurance. Lucky for them a totally separate company called Blackrock owns Aon the worlds largest reinsurance company.

They are 100% ok with murder and would be happy if it happens and they get away with it. They're just being dishonest about it too.
Never forget how much they wanted Trump to die, how much they wanted Kyle Rittenhouse to die and how much they wanted the covington kid to die, just for smiling.

If a right wing MAGAMAN parks his Tesla in front of a liberal utopia and its full of fireworks the liberals should not set it on fire because the explosion could be very big and might damage the thing they like too.

You hear me. DO NOT PARK your Tesla near important things to liberals!

Are you aware that modern civilization has devised ways to store food? For example:
Mylar bags

And oxygen absorbers

I would like to also point out you do not have to store all the food you own under your bed. You can choose other locations.

Reminder: don't eat the packets that say "do not eat" even if they smell yummy to you.

Mylar brought me flash backs to that one advertisement for it from the 60s.

Looks like you have nothing to say when presented with facts and have resorted to name calling. How predictable! Sad!

I'll put it under my "I consider everything possible" folder and be cautiously optimistic that they won't have the chance. Although to a degree we're already moving that way anyway.

Yeah Trump announced the immediate resumption of aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine and announced he's going to apply maximum pressure to Russia if they don't agree to the ceasefire.

Its pretty obvious what Trump is doing here and its kinda baffling that it seems to be being missed here.


In order to make a deal you need leverage. Trump wants to have a deal made to end the war so it stops being a distraction. Ideally, the deal gets money back to the U.S. for all this cost.


Now, the leverage to force Ukraine into the deal is obvious. The gibs. Without them, Ukraine gets fucking destroyed. The party then that needs more is Russia, and the leverage for them.... is also the gibs to Ukraine. All the sanctions means thats out the window, Trump is absolutely not going to go to war with Russia so that's out the window. There really is only one way to pressure Russia. That is to keep supplying Ukraine and ensuring that Russia has to bleed for every single inch of land.

The deal is already on the table for Ukraine and the minerals, Trump does see this as paying back with interest. And if it keeps dragging on he can just bump up the amount of monetary worth he wants from the deal. So, keep the gibs going there, keep raising the price on what Ukraine has to pay us, and encourage other non-European powers that Russia is friendly with to provide diplomatic pressure. In the end, encourage both to come to the table, make a deal that fucks Ukraine but leaves it sovereign (and likely missing land), provide some slowly escalating security deals (I could go on at length about this one for awhile) to ensure Ukraine does not renege on the deal, and then leave that fucking hellhole slightly richer and with the region nominally stable.

IBM was, if you remember, the company that pushed for moving from Pensions to 401ks in the first place, which fucked over the middle class (but made the line go up for the boomers, so it was an unambiguous moral good in the boomercractic worldview).
Click to expand...

Stop believing Boomer myths about what pensions were like. Pensions got utterly ravaged by 1970s inflation, and your retirement being tied to the fortunes of your previous employer turned out to be a bad idea, since it turns out a top 10 firm today can be nonexistent in 30 years. You're crazy if you want to go back to that. Unlike my grandpa, whose pension was completely dissolved by inflation, my dad's 401k continues to outpace inflation, so I don't have to worry about him.

JD Vance should offer to start debating democrats already so they can drop out like Biden. After he beats off a couple dozen men and women on live television maybe some good democrats will emerge. I don't even mean good as in aligned with me politically I mean not straight up evil or retarded.

Alright faggots, listen up, food is easy. All you need to do is heat some margarine in a pan, then chop off your dick and fry it up like a sausage. Then cook 73 100lb sacks of rice in a 4qt rice cooker, and portion it out into tupperwares and store it in your hermetically sealed tornado bunker; make sure there's no oxygen or the botulinum won't be able to produce spores. Now whenever you need a meal you can just drive to mcdonalds, and if you're lucky they'll be running the monopoly promotion and you can get your 401k started at the same time. </USpolitics>
