People from Denmark are Danes, they are Danish. Danishes are danish pastries Cinnamon buns are buns made with cinnamon and do not come from the isle of cinnamon.

The boats, no matter the size, will all be raised by a rising tide.
The neurotypical urge to not have a good enough answer and then bully the autistic person for asking the question.
(Not a comment on the post, just a frustration)
Upon hearing that danish pastries came from Denmark my sister asked “then where do cinnamon buns come from?” and my mom was laughing too hard to stop me making fun of her. To this day I can bring it up to instant rage lol
Or the time she drilled an ez-anchor into a wall stud and melted it to half the length. She’s done some housework better more recently but that one is still funny.
Literally it isn’t and you, and maybe the handful of liars using it for that purpose, just flat-out do not understand the saying.
A rising tide lifting all boats is specifically about how helping the bottom helps everyone. It is so astronomically far from the concept of trickle-down economics.
You don’t want that world. Look at who commits murder even when it’s more difficult, and look at why they do it. The far-right love to respond to people trying to help them with death threats, guns, and bombs, the centre doesn’t do anything about it even if they’re also in the victim pool, and the left would like to see these executives and corrupt politicians arrested and their ill-gotten assets seized but we generally pump the brakes on the murder.
These days, though, people are being pushed outside their “comfort zone”.
I dunno, I can see this happening based on people I’ve met in my own life. Bullshit is not a synonym for a highly probable lie.
It’s not about who’s buying the end product, it’s about who is supporting the people and politicians who use that flawed reasoning to get support.
“The carbon tax will mean that your food price will double” is a massive lie, and should be a major factor is disqualifying whoever says it as being someone to take seriously. Unfortunately, people hear that gas will have an added $0.114/L and believe that that will mean immediate financial ruin for everyone across the country. Politicians that support controlling the rampant greed of companies aren’t getting support while the thieves are and that’s fucked up.
But also remember that the cost of energy is nowhere near 100% of the cost of making pretty much anything.
If you doubled the cost of something because the price of a fraction of it doubled you’re absolutely a thief. That’s what these companies are doing; bad math to steal from stupid people*.
*Anyone can be a stupid person, including those with advanced engineering degrees. Hell, it’s almost more likely for them.
A rising tide does lift all boats. Giving all your money to a couple uber rich people is not a rising tide, though.
Oh course you assumed from context because like it or not you got some serious, and possibly unconscious, sexism you should really look into. I never said I had any of these things myself, only defended others owning them, which makes any possible excuse even weaker, too.
I am disappointed, bud, but not surprised.
How about instead of burning down the entire house because you saw a spider you, uh, don’t do that. Government grants for scientific research are amazing things because profit need not be a motivator and the research can be shared among everyone, not kept secret and maybe not even used.
This is not a valid form of government, it’s just outright authoritatian tyrrany. There need to be laws protecting instituations from that danger but of course the US has always been much further from the utopia it claims to be than would allow for that sort of thing.
