they'll pick the most efficient option-- to them, it's not "people HAVE to live this far away or less". it's "alright, who lives the farthest away and are potential new hires closer". basically, they'd define "near" based on where employees live and where job applicants live.

it'd result in a world where the people who can afford to live closer than their coworkers are the people with more job security. it'd be more wealth inequality

congratulations! companies now have motivation to hire people as close as possible to the workplace, as well as fire those who live further than everywhere else!

those optimizing fucks would run that idea into the ground, i think

i mean, extremists of all sides are similar:

  • outcasts by society
  • many unable to form meaningful human relationships
  • despised by normal people for straying too far from what is believed to be rational
  • some other shit (idk, i'm not an extremist)

extremists of differing beliefs almost ALWAYS hate each other. just because you're similar doesn't mean you're friends

"not your problem" is actually my opinion on how the US should treat this problem. if they aren't willing to act diplomatically toward one another, we should pull all funding/whatever benefits we're giving israel. the united states isnt giving money to israel because they care about the people; israel's government stimulates the US economy a fuck-ton. we give them so so much money, and it's all for the "defense" of a military of an immensely corrupt government.

according to 22 U.S.C. 2378d, we can't provide assistance to "any unit of the security forces of a foreign country if the Secretary of State has credible information that such unit has committed a gross violation of human rights."

I would argue that israel's police/military have committed many gross violations of human rights, and Amnesty International would agree. The fact the we continue to support them directly contradicts our own legislation and is telling of the injustice and corruption not only in israel, but in the US as well.

tldr; the US supports israel when we have laws that say otherwise, and we're just in it for the money. we should just entirely pull out from this stupid horseshit but our corrupt fucking government wont let us
