For-profit medical care.
Piggybacking for-profit prisons.
Public transport too. It really seems like every time a public service is privatised it goes to shit, almost as if for-profit motives aren’t aligned to public interest.

corporations given constitutional rights in the us like living people.
Like people but without also being subject to incarceration…

What if I’m in my own home minding my own business and an attacker named Enola comes and waltzes right in my door and how do I protect my property then?? Some people smh
A lot of these are things that we can improve
Here’s one we can’t: giraffes 🦒
an old meme:
Man I think the unbelievable part stays in the fact that that horse fucking flyies …
Pegasus != Unicorn
Also, Pegasus was just the name of that particular flying horse. Not the name of the species.
The original baby Yoda
Wait wait what am I missing here ? Do unicorn fly ?
50,000 Square Foot Mansions. Such a waste.
I agree. How are you gonna make a mansion with just a square foot? Let alone 50,000 of them.
Billionaires
Depends on the currency, though…
Disagree.
I bet you’d have quite a different opinion if someone gave you a couple billion
I’ll bet you’re incorrect.
- If billionaires didn’t exist nobody could do that
- They wouldn’t anyway

The U.S. Geological Survey’s most recent water use data for Utah shows the state uses about 38 million gallons of water on golf courses per day.
PER FUCKING DAY.

it’s a waste of land which BTW we can’t make more of
Japan and the UAE have entered the chat
UAE is cheating since they outsourced it to the Netherlands to do their sea reclaiming for them.
Well the waste of land part doesn’t really matter much cause if we ever did need that land for other things, it’s still there. It’s not as though building a golf course makes that patch of land into an irradiated wasteland that can never be used for anything else again.
Golf is equivalent to licking an entire countryside so nobody else can use it. The only activity in human history that used more space for less people were the Apollo moon landings.

Billionaires and Guinea Worm.
The good news is we are on the verge of eradicating Guinea Worm.
I’d like to add botflies. The whole removal process is nightmare fuel.
I had a professor in college who intentionally got infected by a bot fly to see what it was like. That’s dedication.
I hope he got some kind of credit for it.

But in reality, military aerial drones are much more terrifying. It sounds like a sci-fi dystopia that a billionaire could type your name, press a kill button, and within a few minutes a drone locates and bombs you. But this tech has already existed for over a decade, and is being used by the US in the Middle East and North Africa.
I don’t think you just type a name and set it to go. Someone is remotely piloting that drone.
For now, anyway.
Not me! Wikipedia lists 14 people with my first and just name just in the category of American politicians.

The 1%
Any individual possessing more than a lifetime’s worth of money. Like after you have $30 million the rest goes into a bucket for everyone else to use. You can re-up from the bucket once you drop below mmmm a 5 year amount of money say $2 million. You can still amass bazillions of dollars, just not kajillions.
