    I don't think you really have to go very far back. Since I was old enough to remember, I heard basically every adult say that they voted for the lesser of two evils. Maybe it wasn't as overt then, but it was definitely the mind set.

    Because you put everything in your mouth as a baby. Some things might be an extrapolation, but most of it is memory from babyhood.

    That was condescending. They likely phrased it that way because they thought the other poster didn't know. Not that they just found out. You were rude.

    I didn't mean they didn't exist at all. I meant they aren't popular everywhere. I'm not arguing that we simply went straight from horse and buggy to every person having cars and a few places had mass transit. Mass transit was everywhere. It was an option for most people. Yes, most goods did transition to being transported by 18 wheelers. I'm not arguing we had 18 wheelers and horse drawn carriages, but that we had them along street cars and trains meant to transport goods and people. Next time I'll try to be more clear.

    Look, I know it's idealist, but corporate profits are at an all time high. C-level execs make hundreds to thousands times what their lowest level employee does. It's disgusting. The greed and their assumption that we will just let them continually be more greedy is disgusting. Maybe they don't need all that. They can actually pay their employees better. They choose not to because we have barely any social nets in this country, what does exist can be really hard to get, and people have to eat and have a home. They prey on desperate people, hide behind the idea that minimum wage is "supposed to be for teenagers, and refuse to entertain the notion that they are the problem.

    Right there with you. I almost exclusively use bags. Maybe loose leaf once in a blue moon if it looks really nice, but that's also with the metal ball thing which is basically a reusable bag. 😆 Not to mention, my usual black tea is Lipton and water at 84c.
