So they build houses and outsource the land management to people who are forced by HOAs to have lawns. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/449 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── How about this: all revenue generated in a certain location must be used in that location ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/450 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── How about this: it's legal to smoke cannabis in "public" spaces but only if they're hidden from typical passerby. Meaning, out of sight of windows, walkways, paved paths, designated hiking trails, parking lots, roads, etc. Places people reasonably might be who might not want to see you or smell you. Stoners can keep their smoke spots and do it without fear. Everyone's happy! Plus, landlords get even happier because now there's no reason why people would smoke in their apartments (except medicinally)! Downside is if there's no good spots nearby, so maybe we need to mandate overgrown parks with secluded areas. I mean, we should do that anyway... ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/451 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── how about this: for every stock bought back, an equal share goes to the government who pays in dollars for it. the more you issue stock buybacks, the more your corporation is owned by the people and for the people. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1861 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── reminder to always have someone in your life who is more hardcore than you. also, try and always have someone in your life who is less hardcore than you. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1862 ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────┐ ║ some people look for signals or signs before doing something.
