I’m hoping the Iranian people can come out of this a better country. But you are totally correct in that the US did this for the oil not the people.

ROI on even a 2 story parking lot is a lot longer than the one and much more expensive than double the price.

Paving is cheap, easy and other than drainage design is pretty straightforward. Put in drainage, grade land, put down bedding material for the asphalt, put down asphalt and curbing, paint line install signs.

A multi-story garage needs a ton of engineering, concrete and rebar and is custom to each location. Because you have a lot of weight in these structures

If you look at amusement parks that have parking garages most of them are land locked or purchasing new land for parking is so expensive it’s cheaper to build a garage

(Please note I’m am a layman about construction, there is probably a construction person or engineer that can explain it better just a theme park fan that likes reading about how the engineer rides and have occasional tumbled over into parking engineering which is a fascinating topic of how much engineering goes into it)

These guys just ruined the sport for at least the next 5 to 10 years and they don’t even realize it.

Most of them will probably be let go at the end of their contracts and have to go outside the country to other leagues to continue playing if those leagues allowed them.

They are a PR nightmare

The right wing keeps thinking if we just remove these people it will be better, when that doesn’t work, they move on to a new group over and over again until you’re the group that’s causing the problem and they remove you.

I finally figured out what you are, not worth my time

Again Third time not a liberal or a democrat. My political views are not reflected in the current US political establishment, but I will say a 10 mile walk is shorter than a 100 mile walk

You really don’t read which at this point isn’t surprising then again your translation program is probably horrible on big words.

Personal attacks mean nothing you know you can stop at any time .

Genocider is not even a word.

Also I notice you never addressed the fact that I have asked 3 times.

Are the Palestinian better off with 45?

Again you stated you voted for Stein because of policy, but you knew she wouldn’t win. So I think you just wanted to feel smug saying you didn’t vote for genocide, but your actions have lead to 45 and a golf course on the rubble of Gaza named after 45, so a worse genocide.

Is it hurting you to remind you your vote to has lead to a worse outcome for the Palestinian people, like all the leftist warned you about?

Your inaction, when you had the chance, has turned your vote into one of genocide.

You vote has lead to a genocide of undocumented people in the US

Your vote has lead to at least 2 murders of US citizens on the streets of Minneapolis

In your effort to be holier than everyone else, your smug demeanor, and state you didn’t vote for a “Genocider” has lead to worse atrocities.

But I’m even starting to doubt you voted for Stein as I’m not sure if your in the US.

Also most of the people I know who are greens are leftist and I never hear leftist refer to liberals as libs only conservatives

Removed by mod

It just give me a point of clarity in a crazy world. When people are being daft I just like to remember, probablity wise, I’m probably verbally fighting with a moron and morons are good at being dumb.

Again not a Democrat. Just knew what was going to happen under 45 and that voting for Stein would lead to 45 being president again.

That the genocide in Gaza would be worse under 45. Which it is

Like I said Stein wasn’t on the ballot in all 50 states and couldn’t win

You just want to be smug and happy in your sheltered position thinking the election was an aristocratic squabble and you farts don’t stink

Not what us election are now, a dirty fight in the gravel lot outside the local bar.

And if it all falls down and we turn into fascism you know your smug vote for Stein won’t get you any favors except you feeling superior than everyone.

Again my vote went to who I though had a shot at beating 45 and in turn helping Palestinians in the long run as again 45 was would be worse and Stein couldn’t win . Or I’m arguing with a bot or agent out of Africa, the middle East or Russia

I have to quote St Carlin

“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

One not a liberal. Was in the green party until Jill Stein. I like the Greens when you would see them running for all different offices, not just president. Also most greens caucused with Democrats

Since you voted for Jill Stein, I figured I had to explain how 2 party system voting works

The current president wants a golf course named after him on the ruins of Gaza. Eric is negotiating the real estate deal. Historically, Republicans help Israel more than Democrats.

The attack happened a month and a year before the elections most of the armament deals had already been done. what did the Republicans in Congress say? What did 45 say ?

We saw in the Ukraine war when 45 stopped weapons shipments illegally, and 45 got impeached for that

Only Congress could stop those weapons and honestly AIPAC is the biggest stumbling block to Congress doing anything

Harris several times had to say the political thing, respect Israel right to defend itself, but protect the innocent lives of the Palestinians in Gaza. But there was a group of protestors following her around everywhere, even at her book signing about her experience running for president when there was nothing she could do about it almost a year after the election? Why are there not protesters at 45 all the time about Gaza and the Palestinian people?

Remember that the Republicans have paid people to show up at their opponent’s rallies just to ask questions like what about Palestine.

Also Jill Stein with no chance of winning. She wasn’t even on the ballot in all 50 states. She could make the statement that would soothe your soul, because she wasn’t going to win. You could have written in Santa Claus and been just as productive.

So yes you could have voted for someone to soothe you conscience which lead to a Trump owned golf course on the former Gaza strip or you could have voted for someone that would have tried to make it less worse

Edit: I was not happy about Voting for Harris at all but all things considered, I felt she had the best shot at saving us from the chaos we are currently experiencing and the best shot at doing something about the Palestinian conflict

No you didn’t. In a 2 party system that’s not how this works. You basically became a no vote and in a 2 party system, a no vote helps the party you don’t want the most.

So what happened 45 became president and you got a even worse genocider.

Do I like that my choice was a little genocide or a lot of genocide? No

And I’m glad your feelings are soothed because you didn’t vote for genocide, but in the end did your vote help the Palestinian people of Gaza? NO

In fact your vote probably made it worse

Still voted for a con artist.

I was more thinking Fed Ex sue them over the damages or maybe work as a class action suit to get everyone money back

I agree that Fed Ex should be sending those refunds to everyone who has to pay them.

But I think FedEX should be able to sue. It used to be anything under $600 didn’t get a tariff. It was too costly and burdensome on the package handlers to collect the tariff. Also the system was designed to hold those $600 packages, not all the packages. Instead of ramping up Fed Ex had to handle a new system blind, with no preparation time. That had to effect core business

Hell would love to see a class action suit by all the package shippers and handlers against the government for what they had to go through

Article. Proof that she was there. I just searched Jill Stein Protest, Jill Stein News, Jill Stein ICE protest, on 2 different search engines and got one news article that was from the Daily Kos asking where is Jill Stein. So unless you can provide independent verification, I don’t believe you.

Where is she now?

You mean Jill Stein who shows up ever 4 years, runs for the president, siphoning off 2 to 3% of the liberal vote over a single issue, collects a check, and then disappears for 4 years. That’s not a real third party, that’s a grift.

So we are not supposed to …eat?
