It just makes the disparity worse. Because say their profits are 6 billion when their taxes are cut, the following years, they will do whatever it takes to match or even increase profits, cutting costs wherever possible. This includes increasing workload for employees for no increased wages. Tax the rich!

I only know 3 people who all grew up very poor and are now very successful in life. Most other people didn’t have the same luck as them despite working very hard

So true, almost lost my house and became homeless when I got cancer and Hubby's heart failed. Debtors don't care that you've never missed a payment in 25 years.

It is absolutely true that money CAN buy happiness, but not guaranteed that money DOES buy happiness (ie buy away your grief/depression/mental problems). Can we all just agree on this and stop arguing and just be angry at the insanely rich that could make a lot of other people happier?

Your liver, lungs, skin, kidneys and other organs are enough. All you have to do is hydrate and have a good diet

Poor woman needed surgery from the burn and her labia had fused

Tell the anti-vaxxers that there is a vaccine out that prevents autism and watch their head cave in

If a company says that to you, it's a red flag and you should run. They will work you like you're a work horse...

Some birds will recognise the person who helped and will trust them a bit more than anyone else

Also, how do you have "higher than normal call volumes" all the time?! What call volume are you calling normal? 2am during a power outage or something?

Reminds me of in Discworld when Carrot sees the slogan about girls best friend and assumes they are sentient

What about pet dogs who think of their human as the leader of the pack?

Funny how people forget about the deaths caused mining for coal and by coal pollution

Haha, does anyone actually believe this?

Well, actually, this isn't entirely a myth at all. The cold will not "give" you a cold, but it does facilitate making getting sick a lot easier. There has been multiple peer reviewed s that show cold temperatures lower the immune response in people's bodies, especially the nose and throat, where most pathogens enter. Here are some of these.....https://www.uclahealth.org/news/new-study-links-nose-temperature-and-immune-response#:~:text=According%20to%20this%20new%20research,EVs%20that%20reduced%20their%20efficacy .... https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/out-in-the-cold ... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10066131/ ... Also, a lot of the viruses that cause colds survive better in cold temps.

WRONG ! Medical school used to teach that cold temperatures had nothing to do with catching a cold, but recent research has shown that the mucus protective barrier in our respiratory tract gets LESS EFFICIENT when very cold air is inspired. Besides, contaminated mucus droplets survive longer in the atmosphere when the weather is cold and damp, so contamination from one individual happens more easily in cold weather (as a gazillion studies have demonstrated during the Covid outbreak). SO YES, COLD WEATHER DOES INCREASE YOUR CHANCES TO CATCH A COLD. (Unlike what most MD trained on obsolete notions tend to repeat over and over). Sigh ... !

Or going outside with wet hair. I told you so mom! ;)

My mum always told me this

Yep only caused by germs and viruses

Or the believe that shaving makes the hair grow more dense and thicker.

"When taken daily, vitamin C very slightly shortened cold duration -- by 8% in adults and by 14% in children." (Conclusion from a big combined study in 2010.) But you'll have to get enough vitamin C in your system year round, not just start taking it when you get sick.

Sugar is what makes you gain weight. If you cut down on sugar and fats, you won’t gain much weight

Technically, anything is flushable if it fits in the pipe. Doesn't mean you should flush it, though.

I never got this one. The earlier it is reported, the more chance of that person being found healthy. Hollywood has a lot to answer for.

Most people use far less.

Cracking your knuckles will 12/10 p**s off your co-workers

Eight glasses is something like 2-2,5 liter of water and that is in the right ballpark for average person. But then there are the other things to consider, like what is the temperature, how big you are, what do you eat, how your metabolism works, how much physical activities you do, ... And one important thing, how much minerals are in your water? Level varies a lot, make sure that your water is not "too clean", then you may get migraines from drinking too much water and demineralizing your body.

How can you tell what someone is thinking by using a machine? There are not used in the UK...possibly for this reason.

Maybe the early 20th century, but not the early 19th. John H. Kellogg wasn't born until 1852.

Or is it that his normal height was minimised?

After looking at this pic, didnt think of eyes... 😁😅😂

This is something i recently became aware of after I saw a comment on a cooking video complaining that the meat was never washed.it makes no sense to me what this would accomplish except spreading bacteria around your sink

True, but you will be healthier if that 10kg to much is muscle and not fat
