Not really, if the job lasts 30 years it will absolutely offset itself with local economic activity. These people will pay taxes, buy homes, visit doctors and much more.

It increases based on your spend and account history. Unfortunately to get it to increase, you gotta basically just blow money on other services before they trust you enough to let…

I’d guess they have some kind of analytics telling them what kind of questions are being asked. It seems to me that heavily gate kept professions/knowledge will go first. As those …

Yup! A lot of folks forget about mechanical lift and only think of thermic lift.

Enforcement, one countries laws don’t apply in another. Which is kind of why the age verification thing won’t work… There will always be some jurisdiction that’ll ignore things for…

The road was technically public and crossed his land, but was a dead end.

There was an old farmer in my town that had a steel deer decoy on a hill up the road from his house, poachers would shoot it, not knowing he would hear the sound, shut his gate the…

Actually they don’t, visa heavily restricts those business and the amount of chargebacks they are allowed to have, other industries have much higher rates of chargeback.

That’s not the point and I agree with you. The point was that no where near the majority voted for him since so many didn’t vote at all.

51% of the voting population. Not the majority of the population. Big difference in numbers there, only 65.3% participated. So, less than a third of Americans voted for the current…

I think this is way over priced, could they not build their own with significantly less resource outlay? But I guess I’m not really the guy that buys billion dollar things, so I pr…

I am the OP that used that word. I was unaware of this connection, my apologies. I will consider this if using the word in the future. I was aiming for the “not having basic human …

It sticks with you for a while and creates interesting views on things throughout life.

You are entitled to your opinion, despite throwing an insult in to point out an insult. lol, nice hypocrisy. ;)

Yes, he was an interesting guy. Not a good dad, which is why I can’t help but feel the way I do about others that would do the same to a child.

Except this isn’t a political issue, it’s humanitarian and basic empathy. Never said anyone should be removed from earth, that’s quite the projection, but go on.

I could have, and did on occasion, but that would have required my dad to go buy lunch food and keep it on hand. But he didn’t need to do that… the school needed to feed us! I did …

Absolutely, and more states are starting to realize this. Covering basic needs for the most vulnerable is a cornerstone of community and a sign of success.

Just roll it into property taxes and call it a day. This is not a political issue in my mind, but a basic humanity issue. A child with hunger pangs isn’t focused on learning, if yo…

As someone who experienced this first hand growing up. I consider how someone feels about free school lunch, a basic test of their humanity. If you think kids should go hungry or b…

Most of those have their own specialized transport systems that work well already though.

So basically nothing is changing, because in theory any of those agencies could have sold those in the past and some did. Now it’s just centralizing control… kind of ironic for a d…

Some comments seem to really focus on the idea that legal letterheads have weight. Which may be true but in this case it doesn’t much. Many states have made rules making it hard to…

I could be erring but in some cases a German court order is enforceable across the entire EU.

Law enforcement in America has an uncanny ability to either blatantly ignore or conveniently misunderstand laws. I’m happy to know they are tracking this and acting on it. I know i…
