Nah, it's capitalism. It's just more advanced capitalism. The UK currently has the tories desperate to privatise every aspect of the healthcare service it can because capitalism. Ultimately capitalism leads to a state where the wealthy control everything and slowly turn everything to a profit generating machine. The US just accelerated down that path really quickly.
Profit above everything eventually seeps into every aspect of a capitalist society. The UK and other countries just aren't there yet. The NHS is one of the things us british people are most proud of, and yet morons vote for Tories and they are trying to tear it apart.

Yeah, no. That article claims it takes 7,000 sq ft of land to produce one gallon of milk, yet they supply no details for how they arrived at that number.
After reading the entire article, they seem to assume traditional farming methods… rather than the brutal methods of modern large scale industrial farms, where the animals aren’t allowed to wander across grassy plains like in the past.

It’s up the all of you to be willing to stop the Nazis when they take over the US. I just hope you all see the threat and nuke us before we can launch. In reprisal. Because if you don’t the alt right ain’t stopping in America.
And look at American military and look at how much of the Christian world is so happy to throw its lot in with fascism to stop progressivism.
Tell me honestly if America goes full Nazi and decides that a Christian theocracy must rule the world. With our military is there any way to stop us other than preemptive nuclear strike and hoping we get vaporized before trying to retaliate

Sounds like you actually read the Bible, instead of just repeating… what someone else told you it said. How dare you! /s

>Liverpool has a famously large Irish population, and is one of the most followed foreign teams in Ireland.
How did this not answer your question? It's the most followed Premier League team by Irish people. Seems pretty clear to me.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but Utah relies on ski areas for significant economic reasons. It's not just as easy as "stop skiing" when many people's livelihoods depend on ski tourism.
That said, the water usage isn't a non-issue either. There may need to be changes in Utah's ski economy to deal with the reality of the drought, and that may require tough decisions. I'm not saying "don't change it", I'm just saying it's really complicated.

“In this instance, having more information will make people LESS informed, and that’s a situation that can only be avoided with secrecy. The less you know, the more… Ya know?

...they already are...that's what makes behavior a crime. Police are the recourse when a person breaks that ban, or the law as some know it.

sometimes people call the basic idea of monetary exchange capitalism and that's just not right
capitalism doesnt work because it will always seek to draw in all wealth to individual private owners, that's literally the meaning of capitalism it's a temporary ideology of governing because it will inevitably collapse if not controlled
there are other methods of governing that still use money but whose whole point isnt just to accumulate capital until there's nothing left, like for example justicialism, or further to the left: socialism, if you no longer have a currency you've gone too far left and strayed into communism turn right again

Alfalfa that's then shipped overseas.
One of our local farms ships it to Japan to feed the fancy cows for the rich people meat.
