Don’t see why this was removed. Though it does go right back to OP’s victim mentality.

Why am I not surprised.

The FDA is exactly the opposite of what it was mandated for.

Guess a bunch of people like to see CA dictate to half of all other states.

Authoritarian much?

Yep.

Hahaha

Hour of cardio? Maybe 2!😲

Thanks for finding which paper it was… I have a copy but didn’t feel like finding it and finding the right paper. Call me lazy 🤷‍♂️

And in the end, they codified what they saw as a natural, inborn, individual right. That wasn’t by accident - Jefferson was very intentional in the words he chose (and they argued over, properly). Knowing the language had to be clear and concise, this is what resulted. It’s pretty clear if you’ve read anything from 1600 onward.

Some of how the writing of the time (and place, Britain) flows is, I suspect, partly an influence of French language that some also knew - “twenty and four years” is clear French construction, not English at all. Keeping in mind that before Shakespeare, the “English language” such as it was, was considered beneath “proper” Brits. Shakespeare marks the beginning of that change, so the French language influence carried on for a long time among the upper classes as a distinction.

It’s pretty interesting to see this same kind of complex construction (from our perspective) in period writings, but also in many science papers today, where complex ideas are strung together in paragraph-long sentences in an attempt to capture the detail and nuance. Medical journals are particularly guilty of this.

Hmm, maybe it’s a state level thing then?

Thanks for the info, gonna have to look into it.

Right?

Filth. Vermin. How many other people did they screw over under the badge?

I’m fine with longer. 20 sounds good.

Plus massive fines, like 5x what they stole, paid to the victims.

Vile garbage.

Pill form doesn’t do Jack shit either.

Pseudoephedrine works like a charm though.

Fortunately I’ve been stocking up, since you can only buy one damn box a month.

Bastards.

I’d say well-maintained and prepared for use. As in tools need be well-maintained to be useful.

Yawn, this ignorant trope again. Go learn to read 17th and 18th century prose.

Yawn, it’s clear you don’t know how to read literature from the period. There’s plenty of explanation of the phrasing, indeed by the writers themselves in contemporary missives. But you don’t really care, you already have your ideology.

Go read any Jane Austen and you’ll learn. Even better, the Federalist Papers, or the Adams/Jefferson letters.

Exactly!

“You can’t out run a bad diet”.

Exercise helps, but once you do the math and see how many calories hard exercise consumes vs how easy it is to eat more calories, it becomes very clear.

Lol, trying to dictate to half of US states wasn’t working?

Nice comparisons. Will add that to my explanations.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Oh crap, you already done lost me in the second half there, but I’ll give the link a watch.

Thanks again!
