Krauts do a double-take on nuclear. Backward summersault in the bakery aisle. It is good now.

The problem with France/Germany and nuclear power is that their rivers are generally slow moving and smallish...heating during the summer to unacceptable temperatures for core cooling. This forces a lot of reductions or shutdowns no matter the desire for more power.
Russia also has generally slow rivers....but they're also very big. Less of a problem for them.

I didn’t know about the river water problem. The article I read states:
“Following the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in Japan in March 2011, the government of then Chancellor Angela Merkel decided it would phase out its use of nuclear power by the end of 2022 at the latest. Prior to the accident, Germany was obtaining around one-quarter of its electricity from nuclear power.
“In August 2011, the 13th amendment of the Nuclear Power Act came into effect, which underlined the political will to phase out nuclear power in Germany. As a result, eight units were closed down immediately: Biblis A and B, Brunsbüttel, Isar 1, Krümmel, Neckarwestheim 1, Phillipsburg 1 and Unterweser. The Brokdorf, Grohnde and Gundremmingen C plants were permanently shut down at the end of December 2021.
“The country's final three units - Emsland, Isar 2 and Neckarwestheim 2 - are set to close at the end of this year.“
This is the result of virtue signalling. Pure and utterly misguided. A perfect example of the road to leftist hell.
In other words, they are Environ- mental

Because you're either with the cancel cultists, and bray in unison, or you're part of the problem.

When I go out now, it seems very few people are wearing masks anymore. Maybe they’ve figured it out. But na.
Maybe less than 10 percent of people still wear it, in a recent survey. The ones still wearing it are of all ages, young and old.
Makes you wonder why.
Was at the supermarket, and I came around the corner a little too fast. There was this old guy wearing a mask. He got all flipped out that I was there and did a double-take, attempted evasive manouvers that almost ended up in him doing a full summersault in the bakery aisle. Poor bastard.

Covid’s like the flu now, didn’t you hear about that?
“COVID-19 case fatality rates are substantially lower and are rapidly approaching that of the annual flu,” said Lemp, former Director of the California HIV/AIDS Research Program at the University of California, Office of the President.
How useless does it need to be, for you people to let it go?

Why do you think my reasons are for not letting it go? I don’t remember you asking me that….

Arent my points clear enough?

While I agree with most of what you say, there could be better ways to promote faster throughput. The onus is on politicis to do things like this, figure it out. Not tell us some virtue-signalling BS intended for whatever good feels. Do your job, ye heathens. Even without being a CEO of a major health network, I can come up with some suggestions. Schools full? Create more schools. Lower the tuition costs for all health care training, including mental health where they aren't always filling up classes, but where it's needed. You see, the schools are "full" because they base it on the number of jobs available in the market. No jobs available, schools full. Obviously it begs the question, do we have enough beds, labs and clinics to meet the needs of the population. Open more beds, labs and clinics. They in turn create demand for more trained professionals, so make with the schools. Let's go, let's go. .... For those who do not habla, old men like me are the problem. We have a memory, we remember. I remember a time when our local hospital had about 600 beds, that was back in the '90's. Now it's down to 400. ER capacity is less than before as well. But you people don't know that. You have no memroy (sic)

Please put them in the garbage, they might be infected! With your coodies... I like the nasal wash thing, makes sense. I saw a commercial for some new product that was coming out, as a general treatment for colds and corona virus. (Which is an already known cold-symptom causing virus before Covid-19) Another useful little tip is nasal breathing. Not sure if anyone already mentioned it. It is good practice to breathe through your nose. Keep your mouth closed. Only say things when it's important. I know, liberals will have a hard time doing that... -
COVID-19 case rates on the decline following summer wave: Public Health Ontario
-Great news, eh? No special precautions were taken, it just came and went.
Carry on.
-
So now you people have nothing to say, huh? A year ago it was yap, yap, yap. We want our masks because it feels so safe to wear them. Idiots, Well no one’s calling OW a nazi now. Cower in your graves.

Covid rules did not come about that way. My employer was not compelled to follow the government’s lead, but they did anyway. How were they to know that all that stuff was useless. Public masking, vaccinating during an outbreak, wiping things. They only work if you are properly trained. Even then, Whereas regulations come from the industry, from industry experts and they are written to be descriptive. Training is also prescribed in certain cases. What they rolled out and what we did to ourselves is a sad joke.

Safety equipment and PPE is mandated by federal and provincial regulations, not by employers.

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” In case that hasn’t been said yet. But as much as they would love to do that and have for some time now, this is nothing new, the United States has to make that outcome really costly and painful. Too painful to make it worth it, for the red bastard communists. ETA: Which is why the United States has to BE the hegemony. Not the antihegemonic hegemony, which is communist authoritarian, but a democratic hegemony.

Another Mass Shooting
OftenWrong replied to ExFlyer's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Yeah but that statistic is misleading. There really hasn't been a lot to draw much of a conclusion. But in terms of general gun violence in cities it's a very different picture. -
Another Mass Shooting
OftenWrong replied to ExFlyer's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Since I never go to big cities, I never need to think of these things. Must be tough to live there. Obviously I don't give a hootin who does what to whom, I would just duck and hide. But if some slimeball were to enter the room where I'm in and start gunning people down, I would prefer to have a gun at that moment and I would at some point take the chance and try to blow the perpetrator away. While others cowering under the table may assuredly kiss their own arses good bye. That should be obvious... -

I just don't go to those places. But given the situation, would I prefer to have a gun, or not? Answer should be obvious. -
Another Mass Shooting
OftenWrong replied to ExFlyer's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
We don't need to carry a gun here where I live. But in the big cities it's almost a necessity, judging by what I read in the news. There's gunplay and murders every night now in Toronto. Wasn't that way before when I lived there, 25 years ago. A good question is why. I think gangs has a lot to do with it. Gangs exist in big cities, another reason why cities are an abomination. And gangs come about through a form of shared cultural identity. It's a sub-culture. For example ya got yer Black and Asian gangs, and the Eyetalians. There's plenty of reasons for violence in big cities, stemming from our innate sense of xenophobia towards the other, or the stranger. There is no need for gangs in a mono-culture. Therefore enforced multi-culturalism ultimately breeds contempt, gang warfare and gun violence. -

Thank you for being an informer. Access denied, access denied.

You are right, we don’t even need to go there, there is plenty to point out that’s already illegal. But with no one pressing the issue from the opposite side of the aisle, he gets away with it by delaying and obfuscating in the courts. Same as with SNC, not transparent at all. The courts have the power to end this, but now we see how they were shut down, their operations were suspended. By the same emergency order in a way, it seems. So that they removed the checks and balances, as it were. Anti-democratic action. But was it intentional? In any case no one did anything to try and fix that issue. It was to the government’s advantage to maintain that level of power.

They are bought out by the globalist billionaire cabal it’s either you’re fully on board or else you’re political chandala outsider a heretic Donald Trump

No no, perhaps you dont read too goodly. Im interested in the legal arguments. What you are peddling is one man’s opinion. You said so, yourself. So that is your narrative and belief. I’m sorry if I don’t want to absorb your brainwashing...
-
Im more interested in whats actually going on in the government and courts. One opinion is like an asshole. Everybody got one. There is more discussion about Trump on CNN than Fox it seems. The web site for sure. They cannot let it go because Trump is not out of the picture yet. He “threatens” to return, which has liberals completely mortified. Like when the bogey man came out of closet last night. Will he come out again, tonight?
