Condos and townhouses also spawned HOAs which are yet another layer of an even pettier form of nosey neighbor government you get to live under.
Get a home outside city limits if you can, then it's just county, state, and federal... Though depending on the city, municipal government isn't as bad as HOA typically.
Perhaps how long it lasts before breaking down after it's lifespan as well... I.e. if all of humanity disappeared how long to return to a non-human impacted state?
Plastics and other such pollutants will last for millions of years... So regardless of useful lifespan, pollutant lifespan is far larger.
If everything we ever used was either wood or paper based, then even if useful lifespan were decades, pollutant lifespan before breaking down would be less than a century. How many times should you use something when the harmful particles it's made of will persist in the ecosystem for 10 million years?
Idk which is better, or how to measure the difference though.
They went from abortion nationally legalized to "states rights" as justification for states to choose abortion law.... And are now pushing for nationalized abortion bans.
It was never about states rights and never about overreach. It's about enforcing all of their policies as widely as possible using whatever means possible.
If you can't see that by now you can't be helped.
The human mind isn't infinitely complex. Consciousness has to be a tractable problem imo. I watched Westworld so I'm something of an expert on the matter.
