Government providing oversight?!?

What a novel idea!

I am also thankful that my children were born in this era as well

There has been significant progress in the treatment of cystic fibrosis

Still not the kind of innovation I am talking about

I don’t see very many humans naturally flapping their arms flying around very often

There was that one guy, but I’d say it was more falling with style than flying

… and he didn’t stick the landing

I also disagree

Your reply in of itself is a fallacy

An airplane relying upon improvements engine and material design does not negate the very real revelation of human flight to the world

Nor does your oversimplified and ultimately incorrect explanation steam engines and evolution of horse drawn vehicles

Especially considering the first automobiles were steam powered

It completely misses the point

The horseless carriage itself was the innovation

I apologize for not explaining the question more thoroughly

I am talking about innovation in a fully realized concept

I always thought that flying cars would be the next major leap in innovation, but it’s still in its fledgling stages

Not the definition I am referring to

• introducing new ideas; original and creative in thinking.

Conceptually, improving upon something isn’t entirely original

It can be hard to grasp. We can’t imagine what life and the mindset of people were before a concept existed because we have always had it.

Yes, we can imagine the difficulty of travel before the invention of aircraft

But it’s hard for us to understand the profound difference to life and everyone’s worldview at the time

People fantasized about human flight for what seemed like forever to them, so long that it became a fantasy that many believed would never be realized

Then suddenly it was

What have we experienced collectively since the 80s that is like that?

Yes, we’ve certainly progressed in nearly every field

But are they truly innovative or are they a natural evolution of something that already existed?

Same could be said about everything we have though couldn’t it?

Cars, aircraft, boats… All improved significantly…

But is any of it truly innovative?

Thiel should be the first to go, that asshole has been making the rounds recruiting billionaires for a takeover for years

The one time we actually need a shutdown

Overruled

The whole idea here is to rapidly accelerate the decline of the US so the techbros can take over and create the own self described utopia where poor people live in debtor prisons and the rich are treated like gods

I hope this is /s

The interest rate on those private loans are going to be much higher and more difficult to obtain than the government backed ones

Didn’t he come here on a student visa?

What an ungrateful bastard

Most of these idea aren’t even Trump’s, they come from deranged and corrupt special interest groups

Trump also has a team that manages his image. Mostly because this is what Trump really cares about the most, vanity.

If these two come into conflict, the image team will always win.

Whatever makes Trump look good, that’s all he cares about.

Letting him fuck up will force him into damage control and he will never admit being wrong which will only serve to dig himself a deeper hole

Stop giving Trump a heads up on his mistakes

Can’t get rid of him if we keep preventing his fuck ups for him

Same thing happened his whole first term

Pick an obvious huge blunder of his that isn’t going to cause global catastrophe for generations to come and just let it happen

Don’t help it happen, just silently let it happen.

The courts, congress, secret service, none of it will matter if 150+ million people rush the capital to dispose of this goon

They already got what they came for, not that we should Trust this administration to police itselfeven for a second lol

The world doesn’t need another Trump golf course

That’s pretty much what I expected

I can’t square this guy’s background with his current mode of operation
