> How does a DC in Paris, Alabama benefit the locals if 99% of the well paid jobs for it are done in the Bay Area?

They created a couple of facility janitor roles that will just be filled by illegal immigrants anyway.

These days being labeled a terrorist is almost a mark of honor.

Remember the ones defining who’s a terrorist are pedophiles.

Because we built an economy where you’re rewarded for being an attention whore. Flooding the scene with bots is a good way to statistically make sure you’re a good little whore.

> Birth control inherently broke the previously built evolutionary mechanism that insured that the extremely strong built in desire for sex would result in kids.

But as has been pointed out poor people still have a ton of kids (relatively)

Now I went to a shitty public high school in the south, but even I remember learning about all kinda of anti-conceptive methods including birth control, condoms, spermicide, IUDs, etc.

Did poor people just not pay attention? Why is it only that wealthier demographics seem to know about birth control?
