  1. No, but perhaps a motorcycle or motorised cart Will be online. Expect delivery based businesses to soar. For sure. It will be a space for a big chest freezer though. Hopefully. I think families should stay together. The debt based economy is done. Everything debt based will deflate (collapse in value). Real goods and services will spike (~~~inflation) Supply chains will become local. Interest rates spike.
  2. They cannot handle the bants. I am very civil to people and apparently get blocked quite a lot. By the way, you aren't actually on statins are you?
  3. Not yet. Understand, I am fully in support of social networking and gathering, but I think that it must be done 100% by the parents. It is neglectful and irresponsible to hand your toddlers off to strangers. My sister is [was] a daycare nurse and she is disgusted by the other women who work and particularly run these places. She was going to quit actually before WuFlu struck.
  4. That's a "conspiracy theory" Of course, sky high cremation emissions are from "medical waste" Quite a callous way to refer to your deceased aunt I say. I have no particular love for BoJo, but even if you hate him his death would unleash chaos you cannot imagine.
  5. I have always found this insistence of mothers to dump their kids off with strangers so that they can traipse off and earn effectively far below minimum wage when the childcare is taken into account, annoying and irresponsible.
  6. What does this mean? I would have serious concerns about the cash they have been burning even before this WuFlu crisis. I don't think investors will be so generous moving forwards. Perhaps, but the auto market was already saturated, so I don't think the demand is there even for regular vehicles and in any case, I would have doubts about claims of Chinese manufacturing being up and running. As a side note: I can believe that China is getting back up to capacity, however, I think this means that the numbers of deaths they reported are a total fairytale. I think that tens of millions of people have died, but that they accepted that as the cost of allowing the economy to get back on its feet.
  7. Yep, but you would still be shocked just how many people are in such poor health if we were testing them correctly. btw cutting carbs drops blood pressure within 2 weeks. The whole sentence was The vast majority of people initially lose weight on the CICO strategy, but then put it all back on and more within 6 months. It also comes off as fat + muscle, but comes back on as fat. So the other strategy is intermittent fasting, which can also reverse metabolic syndrome. It sounds like you were doing that combined with occasional longer fasts. I just think that most people can't accept not eating for 16 hours (or 2 days as you may have done) though, whereas they might more easily understand that carbs and at the very least sugar are bad for them. Additionally, a low carb diet forces you to ramp up fat metabolism, which will then make it easier to go for periods without eating, making intermittent fasting (IF) easier. I think low carb->IF is a good synergism. Anyway, even a reduction in carbs is going to improve your health, although an optimal level is going to be closer to zero than further. Alcohol is actually not so bad for you if you stay below the level at which your liver is able to handle, which is influenced largely by your diet. I still wouldn't recommend it and don't drink myself. There is a study in rats on alcohol-induced liver disease and in the high fat diet arm, they actually failed to induce any liver damage through any amount of alcohol.
  8. Admits he can't handle the bants lol Straight to the ad homs. If you must know, I rent with a mate of mine. You are making my own point for me. I think that too much of people thinking they have the moral right and the cranial capacity to dictate other people's lives is a big part of the problem with society- as such I am not going to pretend I have solutions. Just because someone forcefully insists that they have a solution, does not mean they do, or that you should follow them. Some of the specific problems which got us here are Planning permission Financialisation of the economy Government money printing (QE, ZIRP, NIRP, HTB, TFS etc etc etc) Regulations, which pushed jobs overseas With a smaller government, you wouldn't get into this problem in the first place. If we take New York and compare it to rural Alabama, there are no rent problems in the latter, because there is less scope for the government to mess it all up. In a situation where there are no rent controls...so it is not a given that in their absence, people will put up rents. Since you asked https://mises.org/wire/how-rent-control-harms-those-it-hopes-help https://mises.org/wire/rent-control-makes-good-politics-and-bad-economics
  9. Definitely. Your body doesn't know or care where the sugar (and glucose is sugar, and starch is made of glucose) came from.
  10. At the end of the day, do you support violence against innocent people? Yes- you are evil and probably support a government No- congratulations, you have a conscience You wouldn't criticise a mathematician for consistency On this forum, really? I hope you understand how you haven't actually countered my statement- at all. After all, I could simply say that the idea that the government is there to look after you is just the fundamentalist position you've been brainwashed into taking. Assertiveness is not the same as anger. Common misconception among NPCs. Besides, if I claimed the right to rape you and send you to prison if you resisted, you would rightfully get pretty upset about it, even if I had no intention of committing the act. So it is morally right to physically attack innocent, peaceful people? Thievery is lovely and the foundation of society? What do you believe the purpose of government is? Bear in mind that repeating words doesn't sprinkle correctness onto your opinion.
  11. Why do you think that? Are you able to show historical evidence from previous depressions to back up this idea?
  12. You may not need it, but the guys who cart your food, clothing and tools around do. Good luck to you getting enough land to feed your family. By the way, fertiliser requires fuel to create so...
  13. A third of them are diagnosed diabetics, however to get diagnosed as diabetic you have to be shockingly far down the diabetic road. As diabetes is a progressive disease, it would be fair to label someone with some progression on the spectrum as diabetic. If you use the criterion "has some metabolic disregulation", which to analogise cancer, would be a small malignant tumour, then 4/5 of them have diabetes. Mm. No. Firstly, excess body fat and diabetes are both symptoms of metabolic disorder, which is caused mainly by refined carbs and seed oils. Eliminate those insults and you address both symptoms simultaneously. This is evident in the fact that very fat people can have no markers of diabetes or heart disease, while thin people can have massive diabetes, fatty livers and heart disease. Secondly, even if that were the case, losing weight through calorie restriction and increasing exercise is near impossible for 95% of people. Even if it did work, why would you recommend a treatment which was only viable for 5% of people, while you have low carb which has a compliance of something like 85%? It is true that fructose has almost an identical effect on your liver as alcohol and that sugar is 50% fructose, however the main cause of metabolic dysfunction is the combination of refined carbs and seed oils. For many people, cutting out the sugar will be enough to tip the scales, but I must also point out that sugary foods tend to be extremely carby and so cutting them out will naturally tend to reduce carb intake generally.
  14. Deflation in things you want (car, owning your own house, xbox, iPhone), inflation in things you need (food, fuel, rent, communications)
  15. There are doctors who have cured thousands of people of diabetes and reversed others' heart disease. According to most doctors, that is completely impossible. That should at least raise your eyebrows.
  16. Yep. Cut taxes, cut regulation, cut benefits. That is not going to happen and we will see increases in all of these until society completely collapses.
  17. Name a single one which has achieved this. The US started out as specifically "by the people, for the people" and it has become the biggest, most controlling government in the history of the planet. If deregulation favours the elites so much, why do the biggest corporations push for more and more of it? The nimblest, smallest businesses have the biggest advantage in the freest markets. The customer. You haven't refuted that initiating violence against peaceful people is always evil. It isn't "my world", any more than using mathematics makes astrophysics "my science" Perhaps you simply are evil and we are dancing around that central point.
  18. To ask the question as to answer it. Fiat currency is done. If I can save people's lives by getting them to cut out carbs, I'm not going to let your mewling nerd objections stop me.
  19. Yes, I get that, but everyone knows alcohol is bad for you. For some reason, most doctors are telling people that carbs are healthy, when they are causing diabetes, obesity, heart disease, skin tags, vision problems, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, kidney failure, dementia, psychosis, dental problems, IBS, autoimmune conditions, PCOS, low male fertility etc etc etc In fact, with a high animal fat diet, it is next to impossible to cause liver damage with alcohol. Yes, rice is causing several orders of magnitude greater burden on society and the NHS than coke.
  20. The people who suffer most from rent controls renters. This is well known and proven empirically.
  21. Doesn't matter. It is still just glucose and will hit your bloodstream the same. Would you sit there and tell me that it is healthier to spread your coke binge over 1 hour than to snort it all in 5 minutes?
  22. I have been doing it for something like 8 months now. If your digestion is an issue, try reducing fibre. Without getting into the details, my digestion has never been better than now and I used to eat loads of fibre. Wholemeal bread has a worse effect on your blood glucose than white. Brown rice is more irritating to your gut than white. Rice and bread are processed carbs, regardless how you package them. Pasta is terrible as are crisps and chips. The foods people eat are adultered beyond belief.
