Yes. I fear the law of unintended consequences here. Will this lead to more or fewer houses being built?

I’m not sure this will bring prices down
Maybe I am underestimating the amount of people buying seasons of TV shows on PlayStation, but this seems like a lot of PR pain for very little potential upside.
Disney is not in a position to be acquiring large properties right now. Maybe Amazon is interested?
You could make a federal law. It’s a hell of a lot easier.
No constitution, only what is moral…
Theocracy, then?
I can definitely tell that they are next to each other.
We didn’t discuss politics and everyone had a nice time.
Some people seem to think anything is fine if it’s for social media. An Apple genius was fired recently for making ‘I work at Apple ’ tech tip Tik Toks and she seemed totally baffled as to why that might be a problem.
Tackling Tik Tok, the biggest Chinese propaganda machine? I sleep.
Investigating the cancellation of a show that nobody watched? Real shit!
This would be a bigger deal if anyone had actually watched the first 2 seasons.
They aren’t really predictive of the 2024 election, but they are shifting significantly in response to current events.
Polls are certainly not predictive this far out, but they are shifting significantly right now. And they don’t rule out a strong RFK run if more Dems decide to ditch Biden.
I gave a link to it up the thread. It’s the most recent Quinnipiac poll. If you want another rude awakening, look at the latest NYT/Senna poll.
It might not be so simple.
“In a warning sign for Democrats, Kennedy was the leading choice for young voters, aged 18-34, in the poll’s surveyed population — 38 percent of whom chose the environmental lawyer. From the same age group, 32 percent picked Biden and 27 percent went for Trump.”
RFK is polling at 22%. Winning independents with 36%.
I don’t think we can really dismiss him yet.
You can’t vote for or against them now anyway. Maybe give it a year and see where things stand then?
“But flippancy is the best of all. In the first place it is very economical. Only a clever human can make a real Joke about virtue, or indeed about anything else; any of them can be trained to talk as if virtue were funny. Among flippant people the joke is always assumed to have been made. No one actually makes it; but every serious subject is discussed in a manner which implies that they have already found a ridiculous side to it. If prolonged, the habit of Flippancy builds up around a man the finest armour-plating against the Enemy that I know, and it is quite free from the dangers inherent in the other sources of laughter.
It is a thousand miles away from joy: it deadens, instead of sharpening, the intellect; and it excites no affection between those who practise it.”
My concern is that it will cause prices to go up and fewer new home to be built.
