2018 was a midterm after a Dem presidential loss, which is usually more of a "wave" than a midterm after a presidential win. This bears out historically.

I would imagine wind, solar, and hydroelectric would generate a higher proportion of the required energy vs. Heating with oil and gas.

I mean maybe start by closing down those schools. Why do we need to teach kids how to burn fossil fuels??!?
Inb4 this is taken seriously

Yes, this article about one staten Island pizza shop proves that conservatives are actually the compassionate ones.
Just not the conservatives that intentionally stranded busloads of immigrants in New England to score political points. Some other conservatives.

They should be, but they aren't. That's why people are angry. Remember that for the next thread.
It's also not clear that we need more police given that the police we do have aren't doing their jobs. Maybe we just need to completely overhaul the broken and corrupt system that produces and sustains the shitty NYPD culture.

You might even say the person who wrote the "sterilization" comment assumed that. Which is fair because this sub has discussed hasidic jews in every thread about the poliovirus outbreak.

This comment has big "three underpaid June interns in a trenchcoat" energy.
June Homes is great, despite this article demonstrating that they are not! Don't patronize our their competitors! Good day!

Because they operated at a loss while staying afloat on VC money for years. Same thing Wal-Mart did to small retail in every American town, except with investor money instead of economies of scale

The problem is that Uber replaced all these problems with their own equally racist drivers, exploitative pricing and Wal-Mart-but-not profitable business model

>They say it at the top, this is a solution for international students/recent immigrants with no credit score that do not qualify for traditional apartments.
And who have enough of a financial cushion from their rich parents to take risks on obviously slimy PropTech apps

No, this sub was pretty comfortable about it as long as it provided them an opportunity to denigrate all black people. Which is usually what those threads turned into--a bunch of Long Island cops suddenly caring about racial disparities for the first time ever.
