zbyte64@awful.systemsto Technology@lemmy.world•Everyone Is Cheating Their Way Through CollegeEnglish1·3 days agoI’m suggesting that the choice between industrialization and skilled labor is a false one because China is industrialized and has a highly skilled labor force.

Billionaires are part of why we don’t spend our tax dollars on things like universal healthcare or free college.

If we taxed billionaires out of existence we could fund that and so much more. This guy doesn’t get to make up for whatever he was doing on Epstein’s plane, at least not without coming clean first.

zbyte64@awful.systemsto politics @lemmy.world•‘60 Minutes’ airs scathing segment on ‘first felon in the Oval Office’ despite pressure to avoid sensitive stories about Trump6·6 days agoThe important thing is that we use our standards to not engage with what is being said but to pursue purity in our information sources. We should start by disconnecting from the fediverse because you obviously can’t trust half of what is being said here.
