Purge voter rolls of noncitizens annually
Huh? Who are the noncitizens on voter rolls? I've never heard this particular claim.

Also, in most regions, the alleged "natives" had displaced, up to and including full genocide, a different group that lived there before. The entire concept is just ridiculous.
Likely true but impossible to prove to a motivated reasoner. No witnesses, no written record - the perfect crime.

Ballots are already multiple pages, you could easily split it into enough pages so that no page could identify anyone.

Wait, there's no reason that your entire ballot needs to be published, right? Publishing the vote tallies for each race separately is sufficient. If there's no association between the choices you make in each race I hardly see the privacy concerns.

The city is wholly contained in the county, so that adds no information. Same likely goes for judges and many statewide offices. Never seen elections for hospital districts.

You've had a debate (presumably on the merits of the claims) a thousand times and you remain unconvinced, yet you claim that everyone would be ok with it if the court would just listen to arguments? Seems more likely that people will just say the court is biased and keep believing.

I've never seen a ballot that has anything more local than city elections, so I can't imagine how it would be a privacy issue unless you've got a city of like ten people. I doubt that intersecting the city and senate district or whatever will result in a small set of people.

I don't think anyone would benefit from this guy asking Kamala Harris the same question for an hour.

I just don't see how asking the same question twelve times is better than asking it three times. Has anyone ever answered a question on the fourth time after dodging thrice?

Presidential candidate jeopardy would be enormously interesting.

What is the point? This isn't a CIA black site, ve don't have vays of making you talk. It's already obvious she's dodging the question.
Also I hate to be pedantic but a question with a number for an answer doesn't have a finite set of answers.
I lied, I don't hate to be pedantic.

How hardball can you really get? The man asked her the same question three times. If she can't answer it in a coherent way with three at-bats it is unlikely she'll be able to come up with anything more coherent if you ask her this question ten more times, and it's evidence enough of whatever qualities an interview is supposed to show. He who has ears, let him listen.

Especially given the recent period of high inflation has redistributed wealth like nobody's business.
Inflation is excellent for debtors, and a lot of Americans are debtors.

Sometimes those things happen. But there are also times when they don't happen... I wouldn't want my children to get in the habit of consulting a table of probabilities detailing the likelihood of a positive outcome before they make decisions
You... Wouldn't want your kids to consider risks before taking actions? Would you be okay with them smoking fent, or is there just some point at which it becomes "obviously regrettable"?

That would depend entirely on the sorority.

If profits incentivize so much bad behavior, then maybe we just need to chill on the profits for a while. Take a break. It won't be the end of the world. Share some of the excess cash with your employees, or invest it in a scientific or artistic endeavor of your choosing, or just burn it for all I care, it doesn't matter much.
I agree. I put forth the following modest proposal: require by law that every American send me (personally) a dollar. It's hardly any money at all, it can't matter to just about anyone. I'm even more generous than the longshoremen - I don't demand it in perpetuity, just a single lump sum.

As far as I'm aware, there's no union for fake email job havers extracting six figure salaries for them. They could be fired all tomorrow if they are truly useless and automatable. It would seem that the same does not go for the longshoremen.

"rent seeking bullshit jobs until the sun swallows the earth" is maybe not the worst fate for humanity but it's gotta be up there.

Are we really sure about this?
I mean are we even sure that Buttigieg was not grown in a vat? I wasn't present at his birth, personally. There's very little that we're sure of once we get right down to it.

Or a "technically I was in the Navy!" gay dude.
What's technical about it? He was in the navy, he was even deployed. Sure, he was only deployed for seven months. But it's not like he exclusively sat on the base. Maybe you can say that driving around kabul is not that dangerous. And since it's the navy, we shouldn't hold his homosexuality against him.
I sincerely doubt Americans are shoving Halloween into your country.
