You mean to tell me an emotionally weak Bond who cried wasn’t already a completely different take on the character?

re: Trump signs executive orders putting massive restrictions on birthright citizenship

Posted by Hayekian serf on 8/6/26 at 8:25 pm to TBoy

You do realize the United States is in the minority when it comes to birthright citizenship, right?

The majority of countries—both developed and developing—do not grant automatic birthright citizenship.

So, if you want America to more closely resemble certain European countries, does that include adopting their approach to birthright citizenship as well?

Just to name a few

Without birthright citizenship:

United Kingdom
Germany
France
Italy
Spain
Portugal
Netherlands
Belgium
Switzerland
Austria
Denmark
Norway
Sweden
Finland
Iceland
Ireland
Australia
New Zealand
Japan
South Korea
Singapore

Notable developed countries that do have broad birthright citizenship:

* United States
* Canada

started going back to paper books for critical stuff like Thomas Sowell tomes, etc. in 2020 when Netflix started removing content I'd already bought.

Same here. Depending on the book, I will also have an audio for the car, but 100% of the time I have a physical copy and most of them are hardback.

For the classics, fiction we’ve read with the kids when they were younger like Tolkien or Lewis, and history and economics I’ll always get a hardback copy.

My daughter starts AP government this year and the hardback federalist and anti federalist copies arrived a few days ago.

Same guy didn’t believe in the climate change propaganda, didn’t think HIV caused aids, believed in ghost, and was well known for his excellent LSD production.

He was a brilliant and colorful man and I for one believe him on two of those three things.

Also I believe he created the PCR test

480 BC — The Battle of Salamis

This battle ended any realistic chance of the Persian Empire conquering Greece.

It may never have happened if the Athenians hadn’t discovered a rich silver deposit at Laurium and, instead of dividing the wealth, followed Themistocles’ plan to build a navy.

History often turns on a single decision.

I don’t think many people realize how pivotal Salamis was. Had Persia conquered Greece, the development of Greek civilization—and much of what later became Western civilization—might have been very different.

Bertrand Russell believed it was one of history’s great turning points.
