You know what could really improve infrastructure? Taxing billionaires and their corporations and spending that money on all the things the USA is currently defunding.

Where is the shareholder value in that?

Sounds like the energy efficiency they won't give a number for of their new model is greeeeeaaaaaaaat...

[–] npdean@lemmy.today 1 points 4 hours ago

Some people have estimated 8x energy use for 5 as compared to 4 but the model is not 8x better, this has to be a clue to them that increasing power is not the way. But nope, trillions of dollars more will fix it.

Fucking waste of time and money. Ruining the planet even more and accelerating our demise while they're at it. Could be actually helping people with that money.

No matter what denomination of bills or coins it could be I'd rather see sam shove all that money up his ass. It could take a week or a month or even possibly a year and I wouldn't want to miss a minute of it.
