Anybody up for a random meme dump?

So Ronny 2lifts... who should bear those costs? The State of Michigan, using your words, "subsidized" the building on power plants for Henry Ford's little idea in automation a hundred years ago. Everyone got less expensive transportation but the cost of the electricity generation was born largely by the state's taxpayers. This goes for every form of technological advancement. Oh... and the State of Michigan had the largest GDP in the US for the next 60 years but who cares....right? Employment in high paying jobs?... who needs that?

AI Data Centers use a lot of power and water. Seems like the state could get out of the way (de-regulate) those areas and use this spike in demand to advance those critical services for everyone. Does Florida allow micro nuclear reactors? If they embraced this technology there would be little to no immediate disruption or pricing issues.... rather a revolution would occur AND IT MIGHT BREAK THE PUBLIC UTILITY/GOVERNMENT unholy alliances around the US.

Instead of going down the road of advancement and creating a path to widely distributed power generation, local grids and breaking the monopolies of Public Utility Districts.... Ronny wants someone else to pay again. I'll do some digging and see how much he takes from the so called public utilities.

The only answer for our ancient grid and power needs is nuclear and the advancements in micro nuclear reactors is just the solution we need. The massive connected public utilities/government regulatory apparatus is aligned against local power generation with local grids because of the massive amount of taxation they receive from it. Note that Ronny is only divisive in this weird little sit in with his wife. No solution other than to divide people into groups who want Florida to price protect (socialist ideal btw...) and keep the same systems conceived in the 1930's to power a modern advancement.

Ah, but Henry Ford had something that was actually useful.

This seems useful....



I hope Musk avoids Florida until Ronny is gone....

I have no opinion until I see the shoes.

If by some miracle we can deflate home prices without destroying the market we might be able to avoid a crash. My guess is not but there's a little hope I guess.

I've been watching my local markets (residential) run relatively flat for the last 2 years. Residential property selling over list has disappeared. List/sale ratio are averaging around 97%, which was typical pre 'vid. Seller paid concessions in the 3% or less range are back, also market typical pre 'vid, but some properties are selling with very large amounts of concessions approaching 10%, which I believe is builders and agents trying to float comp prices. Days on market have also been creeping up getting back in to the 90 day range, also another pre 'vid average. However, vacant land is still selling at very high prices. Just some of my local observations.

Seems like they would be more effective if that were the case. I'd like to think the Devil is much more sophisticated than "I'm cutting my dick off and I need you to call me a woman".

The implication of this line of thinking is that the leader of the Republican Party is.... God. I'm pretty sure he'd have little if anything to do with 95% of those clowns.
