It's achievement-based. You have to have two kids to unlock the perk.

2000 (with more on the way), or about one per 50-60 illegal immigrants. Compare that to the UK police's one officer per 400 residents, most of whom aren't of interest to the police.

Ford. They fixed it in later model years, but still. I'm kind of with you on that now.

For some of the people confused about why Minneapolis is such a big deal still, it's not a scissor event, it's a mask off moment and puzzling how some people aren't just reasonably disagreeing, but out of their fucking minds.
From Sort By Controversial:
If you just read a Scissor statement off a list, it’s harmless. It just seems like a trivially true or trivially false thing. It doesn’t activate until you start discussing it with somebody. At first you just think they’re an imbecile. Then they call you an imbecile, and you want to defend yourself. Crescit eundo. You notice all the little ways they’re lying to you and themselves and their audience every time they open their mouth to defend their imbecilic opinion. Then you notice how all the lies are connected, that in order to keep getting the little things like the Scissor statement wrong, they have to drag in everything else.
You're exactly describing a Scissor Statement. From your view, it's not just true, it's trivially true, and you're pointing at people who are (inconceivably) holding the opposite view.
Everything is no longer fine; the system is breaking; its replacement would only be worse; beware of helping it along.
At least you aren't at this part:
How do you know there’s not an issue out there where, if you knew it, you would agree it would be better to just nuke the world and let us start over again from the sewer mutants, rather than let the sort of people who would support it continue to pollute the world with their presence?

Companies increasingly recognize that any small "lifehacks" or perk can be monetized,
My new car doesn't have cruise control, because I didn't think to check or choose the $2000 upgraded trim package (not that I could. It was used.).
I still fondly remember Heroes' Bane, Bioshift, and Gyre Sage (and a bit more) giving me about 22230 power/toughness, which was completely useless against a Hundred Handed One with Holy Mantle.
