I wasn't saying if what they said is right or wrong, or making any interpretation, just saying it's their work to put out these reports. The article only mentions 'rising' taxes, tho.

Agree with the second, only thing to add is that if anyone was expecting that politicians i.e. rich, privileged, and powerful people would do anything but favor the rich, privileged, and powerful people they're an idiot.

I only said that these reports is the only thing the imf does, like its only reason to exist, so it is literally its business. But also, and again economics is not my forte so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, lower rates than inflation only means free money for the rich. And if I understand correctly is Biden the one wanting to lower taxes to the rich ($400k/year is NOT working class).

Edit:

eat the rich

Unironically/literally this. Watching the recording of a fellow billionaire being roasted and devoured by a mob of poor folk would put a bit of fear in them.

Economics is not my strong suit but, aren't exactly these kind of things imf's whole 'damn business'?

I had an iPhone (4, don't remember if it had usb tethering) but I didn't even think of it. I think it was Debian 6 the one I was installing and there was one or two people with android phones...but whatever! Walking is healthy, isn't it?

In the case of Debian I think it is philosophical. It's been years since I've had to install proprietary things on Debian, but they used to be all in the non-free repository that you had to add manually. Honestly I like it, it reminds me I'm putting proprietary crap in the machine. Can be a pain in the ass when the wifi doesn't work because some proprietary firmware is missing, and the laptop doesn't have an Ethernet port so off you go to buy a usb-eth adaptor.

My money, seeing how badly the dnc wants Trump to win, would be on them running a similarly unviable candidate like Harris.

"...and I honestly shat myself thinking..." Also "goth" can be a goth, emo, metal head, or other adjacent subculture.. I'm not really sure what the deal with goths in Scotland is.

PNG is a good format for graphics, lettering, logos... not photography so unless your video is some cartoons you're using png compression for something is not meant for.

I think what the other commenter meant was that for many people, like yourself, a D near the name is enough to vote for that person but the bar can be higher for other people. If the dems had put (might be time yet?) a not-absurdly-bad candidate, as they have now, they would've won easily. But seeing how it's going you guys are gonna enjoy four years (hopefully only four) of Trump as president, and the rest of the world will have to put up with all his crap as well.

Does he think Europe has cut-rate health care?

As a Euro-wanker I can assure you we do, that's why no rich person uses it over here–they go to private clinics unless it's grave enough and they are rich enough, then they go to America.

You are right. Sort of, climate crisis would be more appropriate. The word 'warming' is not concerning enough, if at all, and doesn't convey the actual gravity of the current situation very well.
