It's important to be wary of misinformation with generative cocaine

There is a serious risk that companies will try to replace workers with cocaine.

I think you are severely overestimating the amount of money needed for a holiday, or your social cohort is quite far below the average income skewing your idea of what is rich, and how many people are "rich".

Australians are pretty well paid overall and get 20 days of paid holidays a year. A quick Google says that 55% of Australians have a passport. Okay, travel from Australia is expensive, but people definitely do it every few years.

Survey from 2023 states:
The majority of Australians surveyed (85%) have been on holiday in the last five years

More than 90% of 18-27 year olds surveyed have been on holiday in the last five years.

Have they tried going back to before they were a crooked tax haven for unethical corporations?

1209 North Orange Street in Wilmington alone evades more tax than Ireland.

It's lovely to throw stones, but you're in the most delicate glasshouse of them all.

Partial agreement. I think that medication for mental illnesses is still essentially in the dark ages, and it's partially because they were not allowed to use the plants for research to determine what about them was effective, correctly engineer them into a standardised type, and work on the therapies to work best with them.

The physical point I don't agree with. In these instances, the effective plants have been researched and their mode of action has (generally) been determined. It is then possible to engineer them into higher and more consistent effectiveness in the human body, than the plants which essentially had an effect by random chance.

Many of them understand the evil they're committing by supporting traitors like Trump, and they revel in it. They don't give a shit about the US or any kind of morals, they just want to hurt brown people, or trans people, or women, etc.

Yeah but these people are also stupid, unable to recognize they are also causing their own suffering with this.

Ok but also we get to live 25% longer which sounds like a pretty good tradeoff.

Live Carfree (from petrol) - 2.4
Petrol to hybrid - 0.52
Electric Car to Carfree - 1.15

Seems they left out a pretty large item in "switch from petrol to electric - 1.25"
