    I hadn't really calculated what percentage my life I've used up. This is so anxiety inducing. I'm realizing how much of my time I've wasted. I need to live more.

    Your first two sources are just comparing spending to returns. It doesn't address the hard question which is about causality. A better explanation for The American Jobs Creation Ac…

    I don't think I am. A good recent example was the ACA under Obama: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Dog_Coalition#:~:text=The... . This is a big reason why Roe was never codified…

    These stats are from likely voters, adjusted for voting power? And could you source your stats on civil asset forfeiture? I'm getting throttled so I might not be able to reply in a…

    I'm looking for a service I can query to get the most popular math textbooks every semester or so. Does Amazon or Ebay have some sort of API I can query? I haven't found anything a…
