Why are things like this never called the Jones Method.
Marketing strategies methinks.
Give us your dosh, and we will give you a nice sheet of stiff paper with some scrolls and fancy calligraphy on it.

Fleeting existence, temporary possessions.
And yep, dull and drizzle.
Nonetheless, have a nice day you and yours.

The first thing for the Administration to tackle will be how to run the nation, whilst simultaneously making the President elect feel that he is still important and included in the process.
Perhaps send him on an all expenses world tour in a private Jet.

You're simple.
But you understand it.
HaHa only joking.
Tao for all, requires universal equality of everything.
But I'm not sure if Tao for all is compatible with universal progression.
And I'm also not sure if Taoists are always as content as they say they are.

Yep it's over.
Time to start saving up for the next presidential election circus.
And carry on as usual in the interim.
Let's hope that next time, there are two candidates who can actually string a coherent sentence together.
But don't count your chickens.
Have fun.

For Sure.
Good for red hat people.
And good for current events satirical comedy.
And then carry on with all the boring day to day stuff.
Hopefully having the time and resources available for some leisure type stuff as well.
Live long and prosper Doc.

Same question as ever.
Who does the U.S. owe $123 trillion to, and who is going to collect the debt?
Money is one of those make-believe realities.
Bottom line is, we either, let people starve to death or succumb to common illnesses, or we don't.
Everything else is a bonus.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, truthiness indeed.
And although I can't imagine aliens attacking Earth,
Hypothetically they could be the size of a microbe, or the size of of something very very big.
Notwithstanding that libertarians can be hypocritical when necessary.
Of course the biggest blow to modern persons ideas would be the banning of personal computing and communication devices.
We are now as addicted to them, as we are to not walking devices....Lets ban them too.
Computing is only necessary for clever folk, so that they can eventually escape Prison Earth.
And not walking devices create fat lazy people..
My advice to you is, stay at home and dream of Blaire White.
Then you won't end up in heaven with Ashli.
Riots are for libertarians with nothing better to do.
And in my opinion anything attacking from an interstellar or intergalactic position, probably has the edge.
Best hide when they turn up.
As it was said.

Yep, a Debism is to Deb
As a Zedism is to Zed.
As a Vulcanism is to Mr Spock.

Hmmmmmmm.
Straying from the previous a tad, but OK.
So are you saying that raping young and middle aged ladies is less of an issue.
Though for sure, self defence is an option and various methods and tools are available.
Nonetheless, murder is still a disproportionate option.
However, I'm still not sure that Ashli Babbitt was being raped.
And nor was she an old lady.

Well my satirical response to your cynical question inevitably contained dark humour.
Nonetheless.
Approximately 7700 people die everyday in the US.
130ish of which are gun related deaths.
Just a fact of American life, that Americans take for granted.

People teach.
The Bible is an inert bundle of ex-trees.
And if we actually knew what was what, there would be no need for a religious forum.
And a trinity is a group of three.

Perhaps we belong to the Universe, and must serve any universal purpose that might be dependant upon us.

National debt is a farce.
An education maybe compulsory, but is not necessarily forced.
Young minds are keen to learn stuff, so it might as well be useful stuff.
Because a modern cohesive society, doesn't really need, a whole load of illiterate, innumerate dimwits.
Which makes you wonder if Trump supporters ever went to school.
Only joking.

Sadly, "recently" suggests that he probably missed his opportunity.
Sadly also, approximately 7700 per day miss their opportunity too.
Of course, the eligible voting public will be replenished on a daily basis; though these days most of those will be transsexual and probably vote blue.
Maybe that's a slight exaggeration?

Over here "Hockey" is played either on grass or a synthetic alternative, and is in the main, a good natured affair.
Ice Hockey is played but is not widely popular, and I'm not sure if fighting is or isn't allowed.
Though I tend to find spectator sports tedious anyway.
So 0% for me.

@Greyparrot
Maybe so, maybe not.
Which doesn't negate the fact that human behaviour does affect Earth systems.
Whereas, a government is responsible for a nation, and all that such responsibility entails.
Though some people have a tendency to think that government is an ongoing conspiracy organisation.
And for sure, if humanity became extinct tomorrow, the Earth would continue to spin and orbit and change, until such times when the Sun gave up the ghost, or other forces intervened.
Nonetheless, we remain clueless, until one knows of a purposeful reason for matter and it's existence, and us.
In the mean time, we just have to keep plodding on as best we can.

The mass endures it 's short fatalistic existence, either for a purposeful reason or a chance reason.

We are all indoctrinated; it's the nature of the beast.
And if taxation was voluntary, you would currently be sheltering under a tree, and certainly wouldn't be communicating with me via the internet.
Why do you always tend to suggest that societies somehow always evolve not as they should.
I would suggest that societies have evolved, relative to their human input.
You'll get the hang of it eventually.

Spiritualities are internal electro-chemical responses, to either self generated or externally generated stimuli.
And tend to give rise to all sorts of fantasy concepts.

@Best.Korea
Yep.
We have education provision up until the age of 18.
We have a National Health Service
We have transport infrastructure.
We have Armed Forces, Police and rescue services.
We have social welfare services.
The list of modern day expected social provision is near endless.
How else does it get paid for?
Nonetheless, if one wants to live on the street in a cardboard box, scavenge for food and not contribute anything to society, then one is free to do so.
Though the rest of society, usually ends up footing the bill for the care of such people.
And the term "Public School" is something of a contradiction over here. It actually refers to private schools.
The majority of British youngsters attend a State School.

Nope, it was presented in such a way as to be unclear of it's message.
Just reread it to make sure I wasn't missing something, and it still didn't make sense.

Words are and definitions are.
We can refer to Africa as a banana if you like.
And shared smoke is smoke, though some people would prefer not to share it.
And your transport synopsis, exemplified the human dependence upon the fascination of effortlessly getting from A to B.

In short,
Theology is nonsense,
Though religion is what it has become.
And it's fair to suggest that theological ideology was a necessary evolutionary step, in terms of intellectual development.
But if you indoctrinate your kids with nonsense,
They will grow up believing in nonsense.
It is to be hoped that self perpetuating A.I. will be more logical, if a real universal goal is to be achieved...Very speculative, I know.
But for now, a lot of organic humanoids still cling to the idea that Allah, God etc, are actual magic blokes who will bestow eternal life if silly rituals are performed.
Such is one drawback of memory.
Though technological evolution still carries on apace.

Experts are generally more successful than less successful people.
And the latter is often jealous of the former.
And to think that humanity and it's lust for resources and energy does not affect Earths atmosphere, is the same as thinking that overeating and being lazy doesn't make one fat.
It's also foolish to think that deliberately inhaling smoke and it's contaminants is still cool.
And if people weren't so lazy and were more content with being in one place, then the luxury of personal vehicles would not also be an addiction.
And a continent is a delineated area of Planet Earth, incorporating smaller delineated areas.
And I would stick my neck out and suggest, that a general consensus exists in respect of continental delineation.
Unfortunately one cannot confidently say the same about national delineation.

1. If you don't need a government to protect you, who is going to protect you?
2. If you don't enforce order, who will enforce order?
3. Someone will have power, will it be you?
And so those with the power to enforce will become the government.
