  1. Be honest, it's a hybrid. It's a simple fact - there is not enough raw materials available to completely replace ICE's with EV's. 30%, at best. Hybrids make much better sense - their batteries are less than 10 kWhr, ( 20 for a PHEV ) a Tesla is 60 - 80. Much less thermal runaway risk, no range anxiety, refuelling time, raw material consumption. Apparently there are signs in the market consumers are turning away from EV's to hybrids. It's a sensible compromise.
  2. It's a pity Trump can't recognize he's too old. But then, Thaksin is way smarter than Trump.
  3. Trump cannot step down. His only chance of avoiding jail is to win in November, then order the DOJ to drop all prosecutions against him.
  4. Didn't take long for the haters to appear.
  5. Oh dear, another birther conspiracy. https://www.scribd.com/document/472773880/Kamala-Harris-birth-certificate-is-clear-she-is-eligible-for-VP-position Please stop, you are embarrassing yourself.
  6. IIRC there was a bipartisan bill, supported by both Democrats and sensible Republicans, to resolve the border crisis. Trump killed it via his lackeys because he wanted to keep the border issue on the table to hammer the government. Perhaps you don't remember that, or more likely choose to ignore it.
  7. The post you are quoting it is not mine.TedG posted it.
  8. How would he have known where to shoot? You have really excelled yourself this time.
  9. That doesn't explain why so-called socialist governments in Australia have privatized many functions. Energy is the prime example.
  10. If he still had his guns, he could have shot back at Crooks like Quick Draw McGraw? Perhaps you need to brush up on logical fallacies.
  11. Apparently he had several. In keeping with Second Amendment rights, they were probably for "protection".
  12. Talking about corrupt, isn't Steve Bannon on trial for border wall fraud? After he finishes his prison term for contempt of Congress, of course.
  13. Felons cannot own firearms. Trump has already surrendered his. Please keep up.
  14. Remind me again about Trump's health care plan in 2016 - 2020. Like the border wall the Mexicans were going to pay for.
  15. Ah yes, a prominent conspiracy theorist. It must be doing your head in to see her contributions rolling in, and leading Trump in the polling. Let me know when you have finished scraping the bottom of the barrel.
  16. The benefits Scandinavians enjoy are generous, and instituted by socialist governments. You may be right, it's a pattern among conservatives to take from the poor to give to the rich. Why do you think billionaires support Trump?
  17. You are conflating socialism with communism. There are plenty of socialist governments in the world with private ownership, Australia is just one of them.
  18. Unfortunately, there's no cure for stupidity. Which seems to afflict just under 50% of Americans supporting a felon.
  19. Really. Scandinavian countries seem to be doing OK.
  20. Who is they? Don't we have enough conspiracy theorists on ASEAN?
  21. Most of the privileges Australians enjoy - Medicare, cheap pharmaceuticals, age and disability pension, unemployment benefits -were introduced by so-called socialist governments. We even had free tertiary education, until the conservative party killed it off. I really don't know why Americans consider socialism to be akin to leprosy, they seem to prefer the dog-eat-dog of unbridled capitalism.
  22. What percent of Thai women have obtained degrees from foreign universities? It's not a generalised or inaccurate comment if I am speaking for the majority of the Thai population. I have not been in a bar for about ten years. and have not had an alcoholic drink for 18 months. Don't bruise yourself jumping to conclusions. Congratulations, you are telling everyone on this thread you are a snob.
  23. LOL, like many Americans you are clueless about the wider world. Calling me a Marxist is even funnier. Abortion is legal in all states and territories of Australia, unlike the dog's breakfast you have. The Australian population has grown over the last ten years, via a combination of natural increase and immigration. You just don't understand Vance is a disastrous pick for VP, and Trump is already having buyer's remorse. The women voting for Trump have decreased since 2016, Vance will push that vote even lower. Now if Trump had picked Nikki Haley, that would have been smart. However, after calling her a birdbrain ( no misogynism, of course ) it was a bridge too far, even for Trump. Your talk of free markets is utter BS, please tell me how many tariffs the US has currently operating on imported goods and services. IIRC Trump is all for another trade war with China. It's quite entertaining watching Trump sh!t in his own nest, although apparently he does that quite literally.
  24. I've heard there is a secret UK government department which goes around maternity wards, removing the taste buds of all new-borns. It would explain the British fondness for cold pork pies, jellied eels, and warm beer.
