Hobbybrauer dürfen steuerfrei bis 200L Bier zum Eigenbedarf brauen. Mehr ist auch legal aber es fallen Steuern an.

Was mich auch kränkt ist das Verbot gegen nichtkommerzielle Weitergabe. Die meisten Gelegenheitskonsumenten bekommen, wie auch vor Jahren, Gras über Freunde.

Modern society has increased life expectancy so much that many people - who would have died of cholera at age two, or in bronze age warfare at age sixteen - are able to live long enough to die of cancer later.

It took me years to enjoy Christmas music again after working in retail. They only played 'secular' holiday music: about Christmas (jingle bell rock, sleigh ride, etc.) and not music about Jesus (go tell it on the mountain).

Either the Constitution is okay with the current state of affairs, or it has been powerless to prevent them. In either case, it's unfit for purpose.

My suggestion: unicameral parliament, proportional representation with a 5% hurdle, prime minister or chancellor, some federalism, and a nonpartisan figurehead president who shakes hands with visiting dignitaries and gives nice speeches.

This graph never fails to be shocking: "The US has experienced the earliest and greatest slowdown in life expectancy improvements among higher-income countries, reported Eileen Crimmins. “We have horrible life expectancy—and it’s getting worse and worse”"

Is Pierre Omidyar available? He already made some journalism outlets and he's still rich with eBay money.

SNAP is also a subsidy that allows major corporations (Walmart etc.) to pay workers low wages, and have the government step in to make up the difference. Imagine a better world where there's a surtax equal to "total welfare benefits of employees" added to McDonald's corporate tax bill.

Doctors Without Borders is usually pretty good in humanitarian catastrophes, and they're on the ground. A better choice than the red cross anyway.

If we want to live for a reasonable time in the UK we can’t go down the US healthcare route

Still this: "I disliked Biden because [thing Trump did], and I missed Trump because [thing Biden did]. I voted for Trump again because I wanted [thing Harris promised], But I really hope that Trump doesn't [core Trump campaign promise]."
