My friend and I like playing Carcassonne and turning on every single expansion pack.

Is your interpretation that this post is intended for politicians to read and take action? If so what do you think they should do?

Like the commenter above us I’m at a loss. Short of resorting to force, there doesn’t seem like an action the average person can take that would accomplish anything. Our politicians don’t seem to be acting in proportion to the threat. And even if they were, Republicans have a (slim) majority. Even if you were to say we’ve reached the point where force is called for, against who?

I used to think this way, but now have learned that many things are more efficient / less prone to misunderstanding when having a spoken conversation.

One advantage as I understand it between a worker cooperative and an ESOP is that the worker cooperative has a one person one vote system. It avoids the issue you mention about not having voting shares. I worked at a place with an ESOP and just the managers had shares. And even there they didn’t prevent the business being sold to private equity. Sure they got paid out but now that previously family owned business is part of a monopoly in our industry.

In terms of shirts I’d actually wear I’m probably going with “music brand” but I’ve always loved “me want food”

What does the phrase mean?
