Milton Friedman: โ€œKeep your eye on one thing and one thing only: how much government is spending, because thatโ€™s the true tax.โ€ โ€œIf youโ€™re not paying for it in the form of explicit taxes, youโ€™re paying for it indirectly in the form of inflation or borrowing.โ€

Choose the Cape chestnut, as it is an indigenous tree. It produces spectacular flowers, and its roots are less invasive and its branches less brittle than those of the jacaranda. Oh and it grows faster than Jacaranda too. โ€“ at Gikambura, Kenya
I was to plant them until I realized they get carry loads of green scales which affect almost all fruit trees. Quite an easy decision to make between fruits and a flowering tree!

How the fuck is this justifiable? How can you clear a whole forest?
Did you know that public commercial forest plantations in Kenya are harvested and replanted in rotation cycles, much like agricultural crops?
12%Yes, I knew this.
3%I knew some of this.
20%No, this is new to me.
65%I still have questions.

The business community needs extension officers like we used to do it in agriculture. Their role can be to visit a village and map out existing businesses and gaps in the market. There is nobody who gains by a collapsed business.

I wish quality housing was what you are doing but you are not doing that. The highrise AHPs will end up being vertical slums as the template has never worked in any country. They will end up being just like Pipeline because they follow the same logic: maximise the land use.
It doesnโ€™t matter how many times you distort we will explain. 1. AHP is not for the poor. Our goal is to make quality housing affordable by all. 2. Many people seem to equate slums to informal settlements. Pipeline is a slum. Zimmerman is slum. We aim to eradicate all slums.

it's worse than that. google cut down the forest WITHOUT A PERMIT because they know they're too big for small countries like ours to fight. they got off with a "oops haha sorry lol"
JUST IN: Wolves are reportedly roaming into Finnish villages after Google cleared over 56 million square feet of forest for AI data centers.

People noticed. The authority told Google in May that an assessment was required. Work went on until a nature group complained in September. The stop order came 6 October. No cops, just paperwork. That is the problem.
