The global economy is very complicated, there will be different suppliers in different countries with various qualities of the different goods they are selling therefore I don't think there is an easy answer to that question.

That's a very narrow (and in my opinion even wrong) understanding of what constitutes a democracy. Prosecuting companies via criminal lawsuits might be the American way but that does not mean every democracy has to have those same rule

Technically: maybe. But the EU legislative process is very transparent (which is partially caused by the different legislative bodies that need to participate) and the European Parliament would probably not approve of such a hidden policy c

I didn't downvote you. But maybe other people have because of the huge difference between leaving a union of states and peoples (which has a lot of impact, e.g. freedom of movement and trade) and clicking on a banner which is slightly

That is actually not true, train prices (in Germany) are fluctuating based on demand as well. But you are not tracked individually and generally the prices are simply rising the closer the travel date gets. So the situation is better than w

I'm currently in Europe (Germany) and if I cross a 4 lane road thinking I have the right of way, I'm dead. Can you point to any road provision that supports your thesis? Because my quick research does not confirm your standpoint.

I think the discussion should not be whether autistic people have some kind of superpower but whether there are parts of the autistic spectrum that can't be thought of as a disease. There are obvious examples of Autism that are absolut

That is strange. Maybe they were not talking about 4 lane roads? Because on smaller streets I would also expect pedestrians, especially if there is not boardwalk. But in my opinion this is indifferent to the situation at hand anyway because

that is a bold statement to make from the video information we got, at least in my opinion. I would estimate the speed to be at least 50 km/h which gives 25 m as a very rough estimate for the stopping distance without reaction time. It

I think you can generally say that there are few countries where one would expect people to cross a four lane road without watching out for cars. I'm not sure why you would think that to be a controversial statement, especially conside

This touches on the fundamental debate whether autism is a disease or not. Your comment and especially comparing autism to not being able to read implies that but I personally think there might be parts of the autistic spectrum that do not

Yes, I absolutely agree with you there. Copyright across international borders is really complex but the only important factor can't be the country of origin. (This would obviously create copyright paradises and is generally unpractica

I think you are misunderstanding mtgx. He says that Putin has already suceeded in becoming a dictator (hence the past tense). If he has already suceeded it should be easy for Xi to become a dictator.

In my opinion this is exactly what prison should NOT be. There are of course different theories on why we put people in prison but the main thing to achieve should not be to punish and scare people. The aim is to keep crime rates low and th

I actually wonder why this warning can be send in the first place. As this unwanted "test" has shown, people have absolutely no idea what to/where to go in that situation. Instead there was a lot of panic. If there is the pos

Sorry for picking out such aminor point but I think you are overestimating capital gains. Or at least I would be very interested on how to achieve capital gains of 10%.

I think that is a bit far-fetched. In the context of a game show it would be strange to think that the host just makes a random choice. Also, why would there be the additional information that the host knows what's behind the doors if

You're seriously admitting to holding various forged ID cards in several EU countries? To me that is similar to someone just casually noticing that they have made counterfeit money or stolen a wallet – seriously criminal. And I'm

I mean if you know that your company is worthless, that is probably not a good thing to print out in the first place. But it is quite absurd nonetheless.

Do "we" really push companies to capture market share? I mean sure, stockholders do, but "we" as the general public don't really care about a companies size until they become too big.

Thanks for the great Analysis which addresses many problems with the article. I want to emphasize the point you made about the CDU/CSU and FDP being more conservative than the Democrats: A strongly left wing Democrat like Berny Sanders
