Ireland?

bernieecclestoned,

Perhaps it’s like the Trump win. People declared they’d never vote for him publicly, but secretly did

bernieecclestoned,

😬

bernieecclestoned,

Making 400k and paying rent. Highly regarded.

bernieecclestoned,

Hope he goes back to normal school for a while to make some friends and get laid

bernieecclestoned,

Where does he shit tho

bernieecclestoned,

Eastern philosophy > Western

Western. I think, therefore I am

Eastern. I am, therefore I think

bernieecclestoned,

That’s the fundamental difference.

Western philosophy is all about thinking, a separate sense of self, rationalism

Eastern, Buddhism, daoism etc is the opposite

Translated Mu = no thing

Rationalise that!

bernieecclestoned,

The for dummies books are good if they don’t want to learn online

bernieecclestoned,

That includes you…

bernieecclestoned,

5 billion barrels of oil and access to Antarctican minerals says try it and find out. UK has a spiffy new aircraft carrier the Tories would love to send to divert attention from their abject failure to govern

A cartoon depicts a chasm with a rope bridge, once connecting both sides, cut and hanging from the side of the cliff, sabotaged by a suit standing on the well forested right side beside a spool of rope and holding a saw. The left side of the chasm is a wasteland of sawn tree stumps. There’s a sign that reads “Please return saw and rope when done”. An empty box sits beneath the sign. The suit calls out to a person in the wasteland on the left side of the chasm “BUILD YOUR OWN DAMN BRIDGE LIKE I DID!” The person in the wasteland replies “WITH WHAT?! “ Title: Capitalism at its finest

But that takes capital away from the government who could be spending it on healthcare…

Opportunity cost

bernieecclestoned,

Magic money tree eh?

bernieecclestoned,

Every country does. Every country doesn’t need to be building bridges constantly though, there’s only so many rivers. It’s inefficient.

Better to contract that out via competitive tenders to specialist bridge builders.

bernieecclestoned,

No, that’d be a stupid thing to think.

People who maintain bridges are not the same as those who build them though.

If your bridges constantly need rebuilding, you’re not building very good bridges.

bernieecclestoned,

Yes, one is construction, one is maintenance… These are different things…

Why do you think bridges need rebuilding? How many times has Arkadiko Bridge been rebuilt?

bernieecclestoned, (edited )

Lol. How many maintenance crews are pouring thousands of tons of steel reinforced concrete?

How many architects are maintaining bridges?

It’s ok to admit when you’re wrong you know?

bernieecclestoned,

They are two different things you moron.

I have worked in civil engineering, maybe when you finish high school you could too!

You really don’t understand why it would be more expensive to have two completely different crews?

🤦‍♂️

bernieecclestoned,

Sorry, but you are trying to argue that black is white. It’s pointless.

You then present my argument back to me that it is expensive to have two specialised teams.

A maintenance crew does not build bridges. It would be too expensive to have architects and engineers sitting around waiting for a bridge to be built

It’s an inefficient use of capital, which was my initial point… Just saying socialism fixes all problems is naive at best.

bernieecclestoned,

I’m not insulting you. You’re just wrong and you don’t have the capacity to admit it.

Here’s an example

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Severn_Crossing

It was built by a french company that specialised in bridge building.

The maintenance was not performed by the same company

Specialisation of skills is how you utilise capital efficiency

bernieecclestoned,

Sorry, but you are trying to argue that black is white. It’s pointless.

Do you not understand what sorry means?

bernieecclestoned,

Cool, thanks!
