Well, if they do successfully manage to trigger hyperinflation, all of that debt becomes effectively worthless along with the dollar.

Yeah, but the LGBTQIAP mob thought they owned the muslims now, and that they'd do what they're told.

... one thing that would be nice to know; what happened to the IRS agent?

If there's nothing but platitudes mouthed to congress, expect this to happen again.

Who said the radiation was the problem?

Uranium is horrible chemically, too, is it not?

Kinda, but what good is it going to do them?

Companies who made their money at the game have just packed it in ... unless the bank's plan is to bulldoze the site in preparation for pod housing, how is the bank going to turn a profit on such a place?

Eh, I'll discuss an amnesty.

Once the people seeking an amnesty have come clean about what they did. Everything.

I don't write blank cheques, not for money and certainly not for trust.

Perhaps that is the modern world they wish to create?

Less escapist fiction, more a manifesto...

But of course. They'e good little stakeholders, and they'll stay that way - as long as they do what they're told

"Stakeholders" is just a fancy way to achieve a bureaucrat's dream: Sure, you own, it, but I control it.

The way that I understand this works is as follows:

If you're a big multinational looking to expand, you can get ESG financing to pay for your spending spree ... but the rates on that loan vary depending on how good your ESG scorecard is.

The short version: Anheuser-Busch simply might not be able to afford to back off. They've been on a bit of a spending spree the last few years, if that's ESG-based they could be completely in hock to Blackrock.

Given the context, I imagine "inconclusive" means "So thoroughly broken that it's not even able to submit error reports any more"

The problem, at least partially, was the defence.

If it's a 1v1, keeper vs striker, the striker has way more options than the keeper.

The defence should be harrying the striker, not leaving them all the room and all the time they need to park it in the corner.

Even if you're smaller, you need to be closing the striker down, making him want to dump the ball onto one of his team-mates, so you get a chance at an interception.

Remember, McDonalds isn't a fast food company. It's a landlord. The McD's you go to are franchisees renting off actual McD, the landlord, under a pretty restrictive contract.

If McD is still the landlord I see no reason at all why they'd object to this.

Antifa only dominate when the police allow them to.

Without tacit police support - which, presumably, was withheld on account of the people antifa opposed this time around - antifa generally do poorly, as they need police assistance to break up large groups of opposition for their own - unhindered - groups to attack.

Honestly, the discord I'm on has a similar rule.

It's a flight school. I don't care what you're having a flamewar about, I care that you're having one in a flight school.

I think the problem there is that her defence can't contend with what's still a few big blokes up front - and they know it. They gave the Wrexham forwards far too much space to work in, and suffered for it repeatedly.

... of course it's working!

I mean, it's not making any aspect of life better for the people who lived there already, but I'm pretty certain that wasn't ever the intention.

I'm not sure they enjoy the tip-toeing so much, but I'm pretty confident they're all about the opportunity to conduct a witchhunt with a clean conscience.

Your biggest defence is probably that the security state simply isn't interested in you.

As we've seen all too well with certain events within the last three years, the UK's long tradition of an unwritten constitution means that it's all too easy to shit all over that unwritten constitution if enough civil servants think they can make it stick and bully the relevant spineless politicians.

And all of the politicians are spineless.
