Read that a few years ago now - very enlightening. Could be time to dip into it again.

I haven't read it yet but there are very positive reviews about Upheaval, probably it's not going to be a favorite if you are a Trump booster.

I'm no Trump fan, but the Democrats are a total joke....

Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders - like seriously?

... and no Warren.  Couldn't even win her home state


Re: CV and mad panic behaviour - LP - 03-06-2020

In the USA it all comes down to who holds the balance of power at state level and what the Gerrymander looks like. It's the most corrupt democratic system on the planet!

For example, look at the history.
There is a Republican run state which passed a law saying you have to show your drivers license to vote, then it closed all the DMV(Dept Motor Vehicles) branches in the majority African American electorates so the voters in those electorates without a drivers licence can't get a drivers licence. Of course it was challenged in court, so the state is forced to re-open the DMV branches by the courts, but they re-open them only the day before the poll and voters still can't get a drivers licence in time. Further, the gerrymander kicked in because they had redrawn the boundaries so that just a handful of electorates had a 99% majority African American led Democrat vote, and all the many other electorates had a safe 53% Republican vote. That was the George Jnr year, when he won by 700 votes, but in reality hundreds of thousands of votes had been invalidated by questionable practices. Now I'm not a booster or basher of either, but these are the same people that label Clinton corrupt!

FMD, how is there not a civil war!

It's all good now, I got toilet paper today. No more newspaper and old CheatsFC newsletters. The bot bot will be very happy...for now.

Looked on Ebay and there was a Quilton 24 pack for $220 plus $40 delivery.......? must be someone taking the No 1's..


Re: CV and mad panic behaviour - Lods - 03-06-2020

The irony is that the 'dills that went troppo' for the toilet paper actually made it so that sane people who would just purchase on a needs basis were left struggling to find some if they hadn't made a recent purchase.
They were able to say 'Who is silly now?"...well it's still you, you silly rabid folks!
Makes you wonder how things would go in a real apocalyptic situation....seeing this is just the "pre-season"

There's also now the stigma many will feel now when they actually get around to making a legitimate purchase.
The judgemental glances we'll receive at the checkouts for our 8 rolls of double length Quilton.

re: Apocalyptic situation.....thats the serious side to this, if there was a natural disaster, war or similar I dont think the community spirit would carry us very far and it would be every man/woman for him/her self in a lot of cases.
