It’s not all about numbers. Wind turbines kill rare, and threatened species, such as birds of prey and bats. Cats and window accidents mostly kill very common species.
I also have a project trying to solve problem number 3. It's called Democritique, and as of now it only fetches data from the swedeish parliament - Riksdagen. You can find it on App Store if you wanna try it!
Ridiculous. We are already losing our world to capitalism, it's just that we've been so indoctrinated that we've forgotten that nobody needs to be poor anymore.
Well, thats great. Now we just need to find a feed for animals requiring about 200 lbs each day, without having the production of that feed adding to global warming. Good luck, meat eaters :)
Good points, but afaik these political topics are taboo, but I don't think that the establishment is made up of SJW's, quite the contrary. What you actually cannot talk about, is transferring to an actually democratic system - which is easy with the internet and it's power to crowd source - as well as introducing a new economic system to take the place of capitalism. These questions will be silenced long before anyone has time to come up with any words to call you by such as 'sexist' or whatever. They will call you a tin foil hat wearer and ridicule you for being a social outcast. That is the problem.
I think that Boeing certainly would say whatever they can to make people buy their stock. Competition is such a sham, and as per usual: nobody is arguing for why cooperation is bad, ya'll just keep spewing that corporate bs.
Oh, yeah. Corporations are so consumer-centric. Especially Boeing who's been grinding down our atmosphere for decades.
Competition creates one sole perspective: make more money than the others. This gives companies no swinging room to be 'good' instead of profitable. Also, corporations are completely void of democracy and shouldn't be legal.
How can you say that? Cooperation is a wonderful thing. Why is it a good thing that two separate entities, with the exact same goal, are keeping secrets from each other and inhibit the development towards that goal with the only reason being ownership and the ability to withold these technologies from the public? I mean, I get that regular zombies would say that competition is good - but a programmer? Haven't you heard about open source? Geez..
As far as I know, all prices are unreal - meaning that products prices have no actual fixture in what it costs to create them. For example, I create a beautiful night gown with materials costing me $5 and sell it for $10 - because I think that I should get $5 for my 30 minutes of work I put in creating. If somebody in China makes it, maybe they can buy the materials for 5 cents and feel like charging 10 cents for the entire night gown - because that's a "standard chinese wage" (inb4 exaggerated numbers). Meaning that my nightgown is valued at 100 times the price of the chinese counterpart. This means that any comparison between my nightgown and the chinese one is meaningless, because the person in China doesn't do the job 100 times more efficently, or with materials created 100 times cheaper. Meaning that racism, sexism and other prejudice values are more important than actual quality and profit. It's because the system isn't based on declaring true value of anything, it's a (incredible crude) system of driving people into overpricing everything for profit - and calling the final agreed upon price a real price, even though the seller often has the upper hand and can simply choose prices by deflating the supply. That's typically done by buying competators, bribing lawmakers and if all else fails: underpinning the competitions prices until they die. So to make an economical argument about a humanitarian issue is no better than giving a religious argument.. "Our current numbers are telling us that you can't have welfare" is equal to saying "Our current belief system is telling us you can't have welfare". Why? Because the idea that capitalism can give us a fair handle on price, supply and specifically demand is just retarded. The only way to create a real scientific price is to have a planned economy that tracks all demands and supplies simultaneously, so that demand doesn't mean lust.
