What are /r/Cascadia's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

• 1.) Airbnb listings are often illegal and it's often associated with unlawful commerce.

• 2.) The host is quite aware they're trying to exploit the "nonprofit" status and push it even further and break the supposed exemption.

They claim that,

>Price listed is suggested nonprofit donation.

However, I question it because their own listing dispute the payment is merely suggested donation.

> There is a extra charge per person for groups exceeding eight individuals.

They chose cancellation policy that is not the most lenient and penalty fee is not directed to a non related neutral party but they directly merit financially from the charge.

• 3.) they're in contempt of supposed "non profit historical guest house" they're leveraging in another listing. The other listing is Airbnb "The Hermitage", Historic Hafner Haus 2nd unit Strict

> Please note additional Zoning code compliance. Chapter 30.120 (15 guest max) Non profit Historical Guest House

> We can accommodate more than 15 people comfortably.

they're reciting.

I don't want to step on any creators toes or anything, but as a graphic & garment print designer from Seattle, I will happily lend my services at a respectable rate & do my best to get things created, completed, and distributed in a timely manner!

We just launched our new website & are still touching it up (quite a bit,) but check us out and/or hit us up on FB. I can score some high quality organic/recycled garments and print water based for a nice, 'set in the fibers' look. Also, we're looking for new shit to design & run so this would be a huge content bump for us.

Cheers guys!

>URGENT UPDATE!!!!! - HALEY IS HOME THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR AMAZING ONGOING SUPPORT I LOVE YOU ALL

>She had been hiding out with a friend who's mother saw the news broadcast and made her go home! Thank you all for your posts, prayers, emails, calls and support.

Sorry for the wait on that. Work got a little crazy today.

> Furthermore, the desire for independence doesn't seem to be driven at all by the philosophy of bioregionalism.

I don't think this is a fair criticism at all.

Does it need to be driven by bioregionalism? No. Not that it matters, and I'm certainly no expert, but from my understanding Scotland does have a different ecosystem.

More importantly, Scotland has different culture and values from England. Not surprising considering it's essentially a conquered nation. One of the major arguments for Scottish independence, as I understand it, is that the Scots are losing the progressive programs (like healthcare and welfare) that are a part of their values, because England is increasingly moving away from that.

I'm not really addressing anything of the capitalism argument, just this, because I think you may have overlooked something important in why Scotland is seeking independence.

Very well explained here. Eastern WA is basically one of the largest economic subsidies in U.S. history. https://www.amazon.com/River-Lost-Columbia-Revised-Updated/dp/0393342565

Although moderate protectionism is sound economic policy to protect certain domestic industries, such as agriculture or photovoltaics, self sufficiency is not.

If you want to see whether international trade or self sufficiency is better for promoting development and technological advancement, take a look at North Korea, which operates under the philosophy of "Juche" or self sufficiency, and see how they're doing compared to South Korea, which operates under the concept of free trade.

That's why entry level Human Geography and economic courses teach Rostow's Model of International Development and Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations. http://www.lewishistoricalsociety.com/wiki/tiki-print_article.php?articleId=72

Keep in mind that most of the reusable bags being sold out there are also plastic and mostly Made in China. Here is a Tutorial to recycle some tee-shirts into bags. or just swing by the GoodWill Outlet in SODO and buy 10 lightly used canvas bags for about $5.00

I wouldn't recommend the Olympic Game Farm. I haven't been there in almost 20 years, but this recent review about sums up my feelings on the place.

Last I saw, they had fucking lions and tigers in chainlink kennels about 15' by 15'.

I'm sorry, I have no idea. I'm right there with you, but the vast majority of this country (even Washington, Oregon, and California) I think would stay as part of America even if it was a full-blown Nazi dictatorship because they are in love with the concept and the patriotic trappings of "Murica", the Stars and Stripes, the Constitution, etc. Never mind how outdated and useless it is.

Latest polls have around 40% of Democratic voters on the West Coast favoring secession or something like it, but that's around 15% of the total population. It might go to 30% if Trump is re-elected or a similar asshat is elected, but you'd need 40-50% for a viable movement.

Alexander Moss addresses some of the issues here: A More Perfect Union. Major sticking points in the event of a U.S. breakup are:

1. Who gets the national debt and in what percentage?
2. Who gets the military and in what percentage and how can we ensure that the successor states won't go to war with each other (since the White Christofascist Republic will have nukes)?
3. If it is only the West Coast that secedes, what happens to Alaska, Guam, Hawaii, Samoa, etc? And how does the remaining U.S. cope with or accept the loss of their main trading ports, seeing as how most imports are from China these days?
4. What does California do for water?

Now, all these issues can be negotiated, but it would be tough, and all sides would need to be willing to come to the table, and the sides dominated by conservative whackadoodles have not been known for their own sanity or for compromise.

So I don't know.

Abe, associated with the Portland Timbers, used to sell these, but I don't think any longer: https://dribbble.com/shots/1048142-Cascadia-Soccer-Scarf

Perhaps expressing interest might make him run another batch?

> In the modern era nobody chooses to be a criminal. It comes out of necessity the vast majority of the time

Wrong. Would you like a list of every financial crime, every sex crime, every con, every crime of passion, etc? Do rich people never become criminals?

In all seriousness read a book called The Star Spangled Scandal where a sitting congressman murders the son of Francis Scott Key in broad daylight in DC. Thanks to the recent invention of the telegraph it was the first trial in history covered in near- real time.

No matter a circumstance you always have the choice to engage or to not engage. There are people who choose to harm others because they want to. Crime is sometimes the easiest answer, but not the only or final answer.

I love the sabocat cat …. I always think of Copeland Lumber https://www.yelp.com/biz/copeland-lumber-florence-2

And think of sabotage bunny https://pixabay.com/en/bunny-rabbit-wrench-repairs-154507/

I'm open to that, just need local merchants to accept them in transactions. The other thing about bitcoin in particular is that all the people who mined coins in the beginning are gonna get rich off the rest of us using their currency. There are other cryptocurrencies like FairCoin that attempt to solve this problem.
