So his own labor is not a commodity then, or is it? You think the author does not know the plumber owns his own labor? That is the point of bringing up the plumber as an example. If labor is an undervalued commodity, then the plumber is selling his labor at a loss in a capitalist system. I understand the point quite well. Apparently, some people don't get it, and it is not a difficult thing to understand. If the self-employed plumber is losing money due to his own labor, then he isn't making a profit. Simple example of the contradiction.

Tony Blinken is Netanyahu's lawyer. He is there to keep him out of legal & political trouble.

More like paranoia about technology and the robber barons behind it. This is why EU will never lead in tech because they always strangle it. Singapore's approach to AI is very different.

Crime in Haiti - Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Haiti

I took a glimpse at the haitiantimes and viewed nothing particularly promising. Most of the front page is about alleged racism against Haitians, as if that is the most pressing issue facing the Haitian nation.

If lies were illegal, your government will look very different.

What do you expect from Reddit? Each Subreddit has millions of rules. It is like walking on a field of landmines. They even censor the names of certain politicians in a Subreddit is that totally relevant for. For example, you can't mention the name of a governor of a state, in which the state is subject of the subRedditt. Redditt is ONLY for “clique-based communities.” It is a fascist news aggregator posing as something legitimate. They also don't allow new user accounts posting or doing anything unless you pass their Shittitt qualifications. The mods mischaracterize you and your arguments in order to ban you.

Politics does play a factor, but it is not the only factor. How much your money buys is multifactorial. Florida & Texas have similar politics, but Texas is better overall for your savings/value. Even if Florida is a low tax state; lower taxes than Texas, Texas has better overall geography, which includes natural resources. Many people don't know that Florida has a state minimum wage that is expected to reach the legislated minimum of $15/hr. Texas has no state minimum wage. Nevertheless, Texas has a lower cost, and higher median wages. The ability to build housing involves political will against property owners who want more expensive properties to sell in the future. In California, the people are protective of their properties, and houses as an investment. The local governments protect those properties in their appraisal growth. For some bureaucratic reasons, California, and their local governments don't do a comparable job in housing people compared to other states/cities. Regulations are often politicized, so yeah, politics is a factor.

Taxation should be a choice. I don't want to pay Biden taxes for defunct piers and other failed projects.

Canada does not need a military. In all the years in existence, how many times has it been attacked, and by who? Canada in NATO just makes them a nuclear target by association. Not smart at all.
