I wonder when a secondary market will open for highly rated Uber accounts. I can see a future where you have to buy a 4.8 account so that you can get a taxi at peak times.

The city is very concentric, with a lot of corporate jobs in the docklands and state jobs central. We had a half baked attempt at decentralisation in the past, but it was a mess and only lead to incredible waste. Sadly the remote work oppo

They paid tax on the money they earned, they worked for it. This one time payment doesn't absolve their heirs from receiving the money in perpetuity without paying a single penny of tax on the same money in the future. People get high

Criticising inherited wealth is justified, it is a major driver of inequality and bad for capitalism. I'm not talking about the families that invest in businesses and build functioning businesses. The degree of hereditary land banking

Am I extremely out of the loop by just thinking that it's a hot desk company that rolls up all the expenses of the office adds 10%-25%, throws in some booze and lunches and says it's changing the world?
