Wait, they took their ball and went home and you're defending that as a show of legitimacy?
Sadly, at least here in the American south, I don't know a single, non-clergy, christian who has read the Bible. Instead they've somehow been filled with the message that they'll somehow not understand it.
So the only understanding they have of their own religion comes from sermons, pop culture, and maybe a devotional they read once during a hard time in life.
I'm from hexbear, people are critical of it all the time on hexbear. You just can't criticize China and not know the people there are far better off than those in the US
Omg this is the most redditor argument I've seen off reddit. No one likes a pedant.
Also, they do state they would pay off their mortgage, so not only are you a pedant but also a wrong one at that.
If you started with $100M, you definitely could buy yourself a house and car before donating the rest. Hell, you could buy it out of the $2M and still be better off than most folks.
When my partner and I met she was a libertarian and I was a Obama loving lib. When we first started dating, we had both become "progressives" and canvassed for Bernie. Now we are both anarchists who would happily fight alongside MLs if the opportunity for revolution were ever upon us.
My message is this: together, you and your partner can extremify each other far beyond where you were likely to reach alone in the most virtuous of cycles.
It's just as illegal for a rich man and a poor man to sleep under a bridge and other such nonsense
A rice cooker could be a game changer. We've experimentally cooked Aldi's bagged risotto in ours to good result, so I'd bet any rice-a-roni or other boxed and flavored rice dish would be an easy fire and forget meal. Just add water, turn it on, and come back in 30 minutes.
Also, Instant Pots make really easy rice and lentils dishes (lentils and white rice cook together perfectly) that can be saved and eaten on for days, or probably even frozen like a DIY tv dinner.
The "welfare cliff" I've seen discussed academically is actually focused on single mothers who lose much of their benefits when seeking employment, and must now pay for childcare, making the prospect a net loss for mother to enter the workforce after getting onto welfare benefits.
Cool share
