This is the only semi-legitimate reason I can get behind. For kids in grade-school.

If anybody outside of grade-school brings this up, I would laugh and ignore.

Condolences

Thanks. I’m stealing it.

FAFO?

This won’t work. Do you want more unmedicated people with guns?

People with mental health issues wouldn’t ever seek care if owning a firearm was linked to healthcare. Now we’re stigmatizing mental health treatment.

We want people to get care and be managed so they can live a normal life.

Your age, divided by 2, then add 7 = minimum age that most of society will deem okay.

For example:

25 ÷ 2 = 12.5 + 7 = 19.5

So the acceptable age for you to date that avoids the ‘ick’ is around 19 years old. Honestly it’s not a big deal in the long run.

For me as long as your above 18 and it’s consentual (ie. not forced, pressured, or groomed, etc), it’s fine.

Probably on par with how the other safety stuff in the country is. Bad, not talked about, and actively suppressed if discovered.

Oh sweet summer child.

In an ideal world you’d be correct and I want you to be correct. But there are a lot of people who want to live on both sides of the grass here. They want to say they have no money to pay anybody to certain people and have all the money at the same time.

So, maybe not all, but definitely a lot. There is a reason why economies tank. Wall Street has no morals. Recessions, depressions, inflation, and the like happen. It’s because people get greedy and corrupt.

1 is not just plausible, it’s happening all the time.

1 is plausible.

Remember the super rich have bank friends.

Ever heard of “If you owe the bank $100 it’s your problem. If you owe them $1mil it’s their problem”

A giant building that’s empty that nobody pays rent on is a huge bill to settle somehow with the bank.
