I find your use of "we" interesting because you clearly identify as part of the group that committed those acts hundreds of years ago. How long should a child be responsible for the crimes of their fathers? As an example, assume y

I have to disagree. No one chose to be citizens of the collective populace and state, they were born/forced into it since they were young. Try not to participate in the system by say not paying taxes or ignoring any law and you get loc

You need to have federal drug laws because the one thing the federal government is supposed to do is manage the borders and relationships with other countries. If you don't have federal drug laws then bringing drugs across the border s

The problem is Zelle should work for commercial accounts as well. For some reason a business is forced to be charged 2.7% when they accept a payment but a normal zelle or other online transaction can be done for free. I think the future of

If you have followers on a twitter you have already built then it is just as important, especially if you have 20 million followers you stand to lose if twitter just decides they don't like you. For many it is your job, your livelihoo

Twitter is actually required by law to remove child porn, not being forced to keep it up, that would be insane. This isn't a call for no moderation, it is a call for a neutral platform when companies are on the verge of monopolies. The

The thing is if America was a closed system then yes we would see massive inflation right now and a collapse of the stock market. But as a member of global community where everyone is the world is seeing the same financial problems, America

There are always multiple reasons. As people below had pointed out he is 64 and already planning on retiring per announcements a year ago. This is another reason on top of the previous ones he stated. The straw that broke the camels back?

I have to disagree with this for several reasons. First, defining grass roots as independent events is not the typically used definition. It simply means trying to get support at the local level to most people. For instance the Bernie Sande

The answer is, literally anyone with cash could sign up today and have an oil contract tomorrow. It is extremely easy to take part in oil contracts trading and those people who basically just have an office can't actually keep the cont

Sorry to say but this sounds like a Darwin award. People always worry about the stupidest in society but if it wasn't one thing it would be another for them. If the danger of something is that stupid people act stupidly then I don

Look at the inflection point, South Korea's inflection was much sooner. Obviously population differences exist as well.

Suicides may very well exceed the loss. The current virus estimates are for 240,000 deaths/year. Suicides from 20 million layoffs could easily exceed that. The comparison to sprinklers is a false equivalency. It would be more like, if

Because their not going to is not a reason. They should in fact issue more shares, diluting the current ownership. No one wants to buy them because no one has money and so they have to sell extra low.

if the workers want to buy the stock up while it's cheap or bankrupt then why not? The whole point of a bankruptcy is that the company literally is worth less than zero.. Whoever buys it would owe the bank a ton of money and have to pa

This is exactly the opposite of speculation causing the crisis. If everyone stops working things stop getting produced and thus companies don't have any value to own. Problem is, people and companies still need necessities like food, w

It is not reductive at all. The virus is the cause of the shutdowns, the lack of revenue, and any defaults expected to happen. Take one company, Royal Caribbean Cruises, which lost 22 billion in value because of specifically the virus. They

This sounds like BS honestly. You know Trumps only conversations were with the CEOs many of whom he asked to make commitments. Contrary to a "googler" who posted in this thread. According to the NYTimes Alphabet CEO already sent a
