"EVs won't all charge at the same time, any more than all petrol and diesel cars are filled up at the same time. " This isn't really true. I imagine most people would put them on charge after coming back from work or at

Is there any evidence to believe the applicant had an "over-inflated ego"? I don't think there is anything in the review to suggest that and the only piece of evidence we have is the author's claim that the applicant &qu

Cant find anything on taxes on personal aircraft (past purchase of course). Loan? Hangers are indeed expensive depending on the area, but tie down fees are like $60 a month

>Why is being able to remove paying customers such an important right, but not getting what you pay for? Kicking out a paying customer who has committed no wrongdoing is essentially theft. No it isn't. The customer would have to be

Oh cmon. Going by literal definitions, an officer tackling a man out of the way of a bus would technically be a "physical assault". But if your headline was "Officer physically assaults man", people are going to have a m

I think this is a pointless figure for a number of reasons. 1. Their stock is where it was last Friday. 2. We don't know how much the stock dropping is due to the outrage or due to whatever else. 1-3% fluctuations in stock, even intra-
