One thing I've heard from Americans is that what everyone else calls 'working class' they call 'middle class'. This is probably due to a hope that one day they will 'make it big', and a reluctance to see themselves as 'below average'.
Adopt strays. Reject breeders.
I can only see three nays. Also, Venezuela and Afghanistan abstained?
Collectively, our species massively overproduce food
The economist Amartya Sen, who studied famines in South Asia and Africa said that 'starvation is the characteristic of some people not having enough food to eat. It is not the characteristic of there being not enough food to eat." Producing more food than we need means nothing if it does not reach everyone.
separate and solvable large scale land allocation problem
I would say it is more of a food-allocation problem. Land redistribution is a great thing, and has worked in the past. But natural disasters and crop failures can occur in regions, and larger farms can benefit from long-term planning and more scientific management. So the better solution, in an ideal world, would be to focus on guaranteeing food rather than land.
the solution to which frees whatever livestock use the argument excuses.
Solving food security will of course greatly reduce this problem, although personally I am worried that food availability will get worse in the coming years and decades due to the various ways in which we are damaging the environment.
Assuming the land in question is arable in the first place …
There's land that isn't good enough to grow crops, but is good enough for wild plants to grow. You can, as you said, 'manage' it - give enough fertiliser and water to make it suitable for agriculture. But that is often unaffordable for the people living in such places, so using animals to gather and concentrate the available nutrients is the best option available to them.
There's an element of truth here, in that parts of the world have a system where farm animals eat stuff humans can't, such as wild grass, kitchen waste and straw. But modern 'factory farms' do use insane amounts of growth su0lements and medicines, which are just as bad.
I don't get it. If an organisation loses its tax-exempt status, it will have to pay tax. This would definitely be bad news for the organisation. But how does it 'kill any nonprofit’s ability to function'? Why would they be unable to get banks to service them or get donations? Is it just hyperbole, or am I missing something?
Look at what Labour did to Corbyn.
Four Candles might be closer.
Some party hack decreed
That the working class had lost the party's confidence
and could only regain it with redoubled voting.
If that is the case, would it not be simpler,
If the party simply abandoned the workers
And nominated a copper?
Considering what happened to the last two whistleblowers, I wouldn't want to piss off Boeing either.
Third time's the charm.
Should have gone with the good old 'yo mama'.
presumably because it was a squirrel that was being unlawfully owned in New York state?
The response to a pet being 'unlawfully owned' (accepting the absurd premise that you need someone's permission to befriend a squirrel) is to kill it?
A witch did it.
The British ruling class is more interested in maintaining their own power than in supporting Israel. Israel isn't their military base, and they want good relations at least with the ruling classes of the Gulf states. If pushed too hard, there is a possibility that they will throw Israel under the bus to save their own skins. I'm not betting on it happening, but Harmer & Co. are spineless cowards, so anything is possible.
Muslims in the ruling class.
We should do what works. Entryism into Harmer's government would, in general, be a waste of time. Getting the BBC to correct this particular mistake might work, as (1) the UK has a sizeable elite Muslim population, (2) the UK, unlike the US, needs to maintain good relations with oil producers, and (3) criticising Israel and supporting Palestine is therefore much more 'acceptable'.
This is correct. 'Middle class' is more or less 'people who need to work for a living, but can work on their terms'. Petty bourgeoisie, professionals, people who see themselves as 'respectable' and 'above the riff-raff'.
