>They're put there by even more retarded electorates.
That belief is popular because it plays into your desire to see yourself as more intelligent than everyone else, but the truth is that elections are entirely fake. The reported vote totals are made up in order to justify the results that desired.

>>16132932
When Bush Jr. replaced paper ballots with soience voting machines after the 2000 election, that was the formal end of any possibility of having votes counted accurately. With all electronic voting systems faking the results is so easy and foolproof because there is no long any paper trail to worry about.

>there is no long any paper trail

THIS.
Basically one person gets to say "That person won" and there is no way to refute the claim.
It is IMPOSSIBLE for there to be an independent check of the voting system.

Entomophagy and Coprophagy in Undifferentiated Schizophrenia
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3168083/
Coprophagia or the ingestion of feces, considered to be a variant of pica, has been associated with medical disorders like seizure disorders, cerebral atrophy, and tumors and with psychiatric disorders like mental retardation, alcoholism, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, fetishes, delirium, and dementia. But entomophagy or the practice of eating live or dead insects as food by humans has only been reported as part of eating habits by some cultures in the world and not in association with any medical or neuropsychiatric disorders. Till date, there is no report in medical literature of entomophagy as an association with any neuropsychiatric or medical illnesses. Coprophagy and entomophagy has not been together reported as well. We describe the first ever case report of a 19-year- old male patient diagnosed with undifferentiated schizophrenia and associated with both entomophagy and coprophagy. His schizophrenic symptoms, the entomophagic, coprophagic behaviors improved with olanzapine therapy. Entomophagy and coprophagy, two very unusual human behaviors, can be seen in association with schizophrenia.

Suppose I have an accomplice who is the head of the government of a country. We both decide to privatise the central bank of that nation and become its sole shareholders by changing the constitution.

(i) What will the rich/oligarchs of that country do as I am certain they will not abide by this decision:

1. Now that I can literally print money to buy shares in their companies on the stock exchange.

2. Buy government bonds/debts.

3. Loan money to the government.


(ii) Are there any bad repercussions to this?

Economics isn't that complicated take the first 3 digits of the national debt.

Example. 100. And add 10% 3 or 4 times.

1. 100+10= 110.
2. 110+11= 121.
3. 121+ 12.1= 133.1
4. 133.1+ 13.3=146.4

And the national debt in 4 years will be 133.1-146.4 national debt is that simplistic.

"Up to 50% of patients with cannabis-related psychotic symptoms presenting to the ED requiring hospitalization will go on to develop schizophrenia. "

"Cannabis is involved in approximately 50% of psychosis, schizophrenia, and schizophreniform psychosis cases"
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3927252/
"In one recent study that followed nearly 2,000 teenagers as they became young adults, young people who smoked marijuana at least five times were twice as likely to have developed psychosis over the next 10 years as those who didn’t smoke pot."
"One of the best-known studies followed nearly 50,000 young Swedish soldiers for 15 years. Those who had smoked marijuana at least once were more than twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as those who had never smoked pot. The heaviest users (who said they used marijuana more than 50 times) were 6x as likely to develop schizophrenia as the nonsmokers."

Daily weed use was associated with increased odds of psychotic disorder compared with never users, increasing to nearly 5x increased odds for daily use of high-potency types of cannabis. The PAFs calculated indicated that if high-potency cannabis were no longer available, 12% of cases of first-episode psychosis could be prevented across the 11 sites, rising to 30% in London and 50% in Amsterdam

NOAA admits that CO2 is not a greenhouse gas and has no effect on the climate. According to NOAA:
>The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere today is comparable to around
>4.3 million years ago, when sea level was about 75 ft higher than today,
>the average temp was 7 degrees F higher than in pre-industrial times, &
>large forests occupied areas of the Arctic that are now tundra.
Which is to say that even though CO2 is the same now as it was 4.3 million years ago, the climate today is far, far different and much colder than it was 4.3 million years ago and this is because atmospheric CO2 levels have no effect or undetectably little effect on the Earth's climate. Its also worth noting that atmospheric CO2 levels have been substantially above where they have been in the recent past for over 100 years now and there has been no substantial change in the climate during that time, which only further proves NOAA's assertion that CO2 doesn't affect the Earth's climate and that CO2 is not a meaningful greenhouse gas.

Seems like the global warming doomsday scenarios that so many scientists have been predicting aren't coming true, isn't that great news?

No, it doesn't, it means there is natural variability, but the trend keeps decreasing: if you look back the data from 2000 to 1978, you'll see that this year's cover is below all those other years.
