Build 5 airports, no controllers, 20% is good enough. In 50 yeara the taxpayers will pay slightly less.
I know this is an old post, which is why I chose to respond now. As a fully diagnosed ADHD sufferer, I have a huge sensitivity to unpleasant noises. I like your premise in theory, and I give my own young children all the care they need; but I can't handle it being at work too unless it's a specifically designated children day, and I can prep for it.
I did, it does confuse me a little. As a colonial power UK gets all the hate. France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany etc get let off. Even though UK released it's colonies in legal and peaceful ways on the whole.
Name a nation that hasn't expanded or died out.
Depends how far you want go back, Saruman talking about Minis Tirith, when we still don't occupy all of Rohan.
It's a really complicated situation as far as my understanding goes (I'm British for context). I believe most British would support Irish unification, at least from the people I speak to. But still the majority (or close to) would vote to remain in the UK. Plus it'll be outrageously expensive a transition for Ireland. I don't know why this is and would like to know.
It's not an easy situation, and in my own personal opinion we should be uniting as friends, allies and equals.
As a UK person, I look at Japan as a nation very similar to ours, they've successfully united 4 islands (plus many small) much larger than the UK and I'd love to understand how it seems so easy. They had just as many conquering bastards, but everyone is happy being Japanese.
My understanding of the Maryland accent is entirely Baltimore from the wire and the 'aaron earned an iron urn' video. I imagine it's closer to ahh-iit, though. Is it the single sound of London or drawn out like I imagine?
I want him utterly embarrassed with no chance of being martyred, booted out in shame and even the most fanatic republican would turn him down a crust of bread. But for now a accept beer and whiskey/whisky.
There was a good graphic earlier I saw somewhere on Lemmy. Metal gets made in America and shipped to Canada to be made into rods which gets shipped to America (2 lots of tariffs) then to Mexico for cutting into piston pieces and back to America to be used in car making. So 1 small piece taxed from tariffs 4 times.
Might be slightly wrong on the exacts, but you get the idea. The manufacturing system has been set up for free trade in north America, you can't just magic a new factory on US soil without spending a fortune and you can't know if these tariffs are just going to go away soon, in which case you're huge upfront investment was a waste.
So costs of making have gone up, possibly a lot more than 25% in some cases.
So I was going to fact check myself before I responded. But I thought it'd be more interesting to be wrong on what I think I know.
Faulkands were never occupied by Argentina. They were claimed for France and then removed by the British. It's been British ever since and I think the few occupants want to remain British.
