"Metal" is a bit of a stretch. I'd always put them in the "Christian hard rock" genre myself

Anyone got a video of the rest of this set? Searching for it just brings up page after page of genocide apologists getting upset over the warmup.

Counter-proposal: All law enforcement measures and punishments must be assessed and approved by an independent board of psychologists.

We're not talking about fraud, tax evasion, or burglary where people sit down and plan a crime, making a cost-benefit analysis, and saying "you know what, good idea, but the cross product of likelihood that we get caught and penalty if we do is too high, I'm gonna sit this one out".

How about you take the extra 180K per person that you're proposing we flush down the prison system, and direct it into better mental health services, and improved welfare systems, which will actually reduce the instances of such spur-of-the-moment crimes.

I would solve this problem in the opposite way. Install some much lower barriers(eg 2.5m) which make it painfully apparent that you aren't going to get anything other than a car under it.

A truck driver isn't going to keep driving if the barrier is clearly at face height.

I think you're missing the joke here?

You mean the table they were already at when your allies bombed them?

The table they returned to after the US unilaterally reneged on the previous deal that had been negoiated?

How exactly does a country getting attacked by two others "make peace"? They were fucking at peace until you attacked them!

Fuck this noise.

Outsourcing to private providers should be a short-term stopgap to allow for the necessary investment in public infrastructure. Why would any sensible person commit to a scheme where we utilise a more expensive service as a long term solution?

This whole post is kind of confuaing me because you like everyone else here seems to be the complete opposite to me. If i eat spicy things, it is absolutely fine as far as my gut is concerned, no worries at all. Where is gets me is when I take a shit the next morning, and it comes out twice as spicy as it went in.

This is the same Israel which is currently bombing Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran?

It's like portraying a person who is actively gunning down civilians with a handgun as "unlikely to kill anyone with a rifle'.

The argument that these guys always make is that "its hard on small businesses", and they're not exactly wrong there. If I have to be able to pay two weeks wages to each employee with no productivity in return, that's a gamble which requires me to inflate my pricing enough to cover the worst odds, or risk running out of operating cash if everyone comes down sick in the same window.

What they seem to overlook every time though, is that rather than cutting entitlements which are in the bigger picture beneficial to both parties, a much simpler solution would be to roll up sick leave into ACC and increase that levy proportionately.

Everyone employer pays the same known rate, and can be more confident in their cashflow, while every employee is guaranteed the leave they need to recover, regardless of how long they have been employed.
