Please post your address all over social media claiming that if any migrant needs a place to stay, your home is available.

This has NOTHING to do with what I posted. Stop.

this literally has NOTHING to do with what I posted. Stop.

The Bronco-type version in the pic is kind of cool, I'd consider one of those. It would be great for someone who just needed to commute and had another care they really "liked" for longer trips or whatever.

I am going to revise my previous comment and say that I am closer to believing that feminism is higher on the list than the other issues I mentioned. Did some reading/research yesterday. And then the comment above about "black and brown countries" and how they have so many people. So, if you're actually willing to have a decent conversation about these countries, you have to look at how they treat each other socially. A lot the women don't work, stay at home to take care of the home, the children and the elderly. I work with several Indian people and they find it very odd that when a woman has a baby, there is really no one there to take care of her. In India, the mother lives with the family, if not very close by. She, aunties, and several other family members come and help. The US doesn't really have a social system where that occurs. Many of us move away from out families of origin. The US showed that this also isn't really what women want; to be the housewife-mother. Both by sending them into the workforce post WW2, and how they are treated when they try to have a career, family, and essentially try to "do it all." In the 50s many ended up alcoholic, addicted to drugs, and/or in institutions. Women wanted more than just their husband, children, and home and the "illnesses" they had didn't have a name. They do now; anxiety, depression, addiction. I know you do't really care, but the book "The Feminine Mystique" touches a lot on how society (aka men) thought that women's fulfillment would come from being housewife-mothers. Women who were truly feminine wouldn't WANT to work. Enter feminism.

There was a SeaQuest near me that was sold, so I am not sure if it's just a different name with the same stuff. I refuse to go there.

Akin to Tiger King and Chimp Crazy, and our need to go to theme parks/zoos to see killer whales, seals, lions and tigers...what are your thoughts? These people buy these tigers and chimps, only to get hurt/killed, or find that they cannot take care of them. Sigfried and Roy? I mean, these people think they have relationships with these animals Should PETA step in more, or should there be additional federal laws that you cannot own these? How do you feel about zoos and theme parks with animals? Since the Blackfish documentary, Sea World has closed at least once park and has seen their attendance go WAY down. However. Countries like China are just NOW hopping on the oceanic parks; buying killer whales, beluga whales, and other sea life from Russia. Simply being able to own cats, dogs, hamsters, lizards, etc isn't enough for us? What do you think about non-human rights?

I used it as a kid, sure as did a LOT of us. But as an adult, I just can't.

Never got the attraction of using the "R" word in general.

This is already in place for public servants. Many loans are forgiven if you've been paying on them for 10 years or more. https://studentaid.gov/manage-loans/forgiveness-cancellation

Yeah, I don't believe any of this. They will see the house and mortgage as a PITA; having to fix stuff and take care of things on their own. Kids these days are all about instant gratification; they aren't going to look at that house and mortgage and suddenly feel "blessed" because they are "living in the now."

If they can't pay their student loans what makes you think they will pay mortgages?

Why would this be an "oops?" Having more unity in Ukraine is a GOOD thing, right? I don't get the spin on this.

I don't know that it's the only cause. But women working and having careers will delay starting a family, but the costs of raising a child are enormous now, too. We also have more access to birth control, so we have control over when we have kids and with whom. It's also becoming "normal" to not have kids at all. Obesity and exposure to environmental toxins can also cause more infertility in general.
