This is why trucks have bumpers PH.

Sometimes I even USE the shopping cart I nudge out of the parking space.

[Prince Humperdinck]

Yeah, I do that, I just hate to bump the cart into someone else's vehicle because they weren't the asshole the left it in the spot.

[Majiffy]

Do you know that for a fact?

[Zeluvia]

Logic jiffy, if the cart is in the parking lot, the people that dumped it there already left ...

[Majiffy]

Not if they went to one store, dumped the cart, then went in another store

[Majiffy]

Or do ya'll not have plazas south of the Mason-Dixon?

[Zeluvia]

Pushing a cart through the door, my outboard resting pinkie finger was crushed. Squashed out a bit of meat. It was very painful.
Three stitches and I don't have to be polite about carts anymore.

Thanks. I don't know when I'll be able to afford a new computer.

And now my windshield is cracked, and I think my depression is getting worse, or at least more erratic.

Everything is a mess

[nostrum]

[Zeluvia]

well, okay.

My toilet flapper quit sealing right so the toilet was running. I went and bought a new one. The new one said I had to scrub the tank and treat it with alcohol so the bottom would seal well. Somewhere in that process I banged my elbow on the side of the tank, and the Tank Cracked. So I tried to seal the crack up with silicone seal.

Meanwhile, I am using a bucket to flush the toilet. Ex says he will replace the whole toilet "someday".

Then the elbow under the sink in the kitchen started leaking. I was washing dishes when my feet got wet. Anyway, ended up replacing all the plumbing under the sink, only hit my head 5 or 6 times and my knees have Almost Forgiven me.

A year or so ago a Turkey vulture vomited on my truck. I cleaned it up but the clear coat was shot. The clear coat had already been peeling. I took it to a friend and he said it wasn't worth trying to buff it out, the truck was badly Sunburnt and really needed repainting. Now the roof is getting rust spots.

Dude. Life is like that.

Nazis were economically leftists you dolt.

Socialism is leftist.

[Majiffy]

Socialism was largely disregarded in Nazi implementation, the Socialist in their party name was added to rouse popular support from the working class and weaken the actual socialist factions in Germany in the early 30s

The same factions that were later hunted down and killed by brownshirts

Dupe

Seriously Jerome. Read the wiki. Social Darwinism, corporatism, privatization, anti-union, protectionist, and militaristic. This isn't about what they SAID, it is about what they DID. It's for sure on the right side of economic thought.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economics_of_fascism

An important aspect of fascist economies was economic dirigisme,[16] meaning an economy where the government often subsidizes favorable companies and exerts strong directive influence over investment, as opposed to having a merely regulatory role. In general, fascist economies were based on private property and private initiative, but these were contingent upon service to the state.[17]
Fascist governments encouraged the pursuit of private profit and offered many benefits to large businesses, but they demanded in return that all economic activity should serve the national interest.[18] Historian Gaetano Salvemini argued in 1936 that fascism makes taxpayers responsible to private enterprise, because "the State pays for the blunders of private enterprise... Profit is private and individual. Loss is public and social."[19] Stanley Payne argues that fascist movements defended the principle of private property because they held it to be "inherent to the freedom and spontaneity of the individual personality," but that they also aimed to eliminate the autonomy or, in some cases, the existence of large-scale capitalism.[20] Jurgen Kuczynski characterizes a fascist economy as a type of "monopoly capitalism," which preserves the "fundamental traits of capitalist production," such as the fact that production is carried out for the market by privately-owned firms which employ workers for a certain wage.[21] He argues that fascism is "nothing but a particular form of government within capitalist society,"[22] which, however, does feature a major role for the state, as was also the case in some early capitalist societies of previous centuries.[23]
Fascism operated from a Social Darwinist view of human relations. Their aim was to promote superior individuals and weed out the weak.[24] In terms of economic practice, this meant promoting the interests of successful businessmen while destroying trade unions and other organizations of the working class.[25] Fascist governments declared the trade union movement illegal, and replaced it with labor organizations under the direct control of the government, which ensured that workers could not undertake any effective economic action.[26] Membership in these labor organizations was compulsory,[27] their leaders were appointed by the ruling party rather than elected by the members,[28] and they were presented as a new type of unions which would serve to harmonize the interests of workers and businesses.[29] However, in practice, they primarily served the interests of major business owners, who were able to lobby the ruling party to appoint the leaders they desired.[30] In order to maintain and increase the profits of industry, fascist states eliminated the possibility of mass protest and then cut wages either directly or indirectly.[31] Strikes were strictly banned, and prison sentences could be given to employees who stopped working as a group.[32]
Fascist governments in both Italy and Germany privatized state-owned enterprises at certain times.[33][34][35] These privatizations were carried out in the early stages of both regimes (1922-25 for Italy and 1934-37 for Germany), and represented a reversal of the policies of the democratic governments which had preceded them. The democratic governments had brought a number of industries under state ownership, and the fascists decided to return them to private ownership.[36] In doing so, they went against the mainstream economic trends of their time, when most Western governments were increasing state ownership.[37][38] Fascist privatization policies were driven by a desire to secure the support of wealthy industrialists, as well as by the need to increase government revenues in order to balance budgets.[39][40] Significantly, fascist governments were among the first to undertake large-scale privatizations in modern times.[41]
In most cases, fascists discouraged or banned foreign trade, supporting protectionism; fascists believed that too much international trade would make the national economy dependent on international capital, and therefore vulnerable to international economic sanctions. Economic self-sufficiency, known as autarky, was a major goal of most fascist governments.[42]
Furthermore, fascism was highly militaristic, and as such, fascists often significantly increased military spending. Recruitment into the military was one of the main policies used by fascist governments to reduce unemployment.[43]

Yeah exactly. In the same way that "socialism" carries negative connotations among most Americans today (whether they have any idea what it means or not), that word carried positive connotations among most Europeans in the 1920s and 1930s (whether they had any idea what it meant or not). So it made perfect sense for the Nazi party to call itself "Socialist" for propaganda purposes, even after all the actual socialists within the party had been purged out of it.

What it says on the tin is not necessarily what's inside the tin. But that point may be too subtle for Jerome.

all we need now are state sponsored unions that work on behalf of the owners of equity...

Think big tech / data and the breakdown of Net Neutrality laws. Won't be long before Google, Amazon etc start becoming ISPs.
