At the rates you quote, $1 T (the size of the market) is 714,285 tons of stuff in the space each year. I don’t think there is enough space in space for that much cargo.

There is more that goes through Hormuz than just oil- like fertilizer for example. Just been able to charge a fee for crossing the Hormuz is a strategic goal for Iran. This is an outcome of the war. Previously Iran did not know how weak US

How would the state become the owner of the property if there are no taxes of the property? The owner would probably be the bank or someone that bought the property in foreclosure. But not the state.

But if there are losses there are no profits. I am with SoftTalker on this one. I figure there are things I do not know that explains how this keeps happening even though my simplistic knowledge thinks it is not sustainable.

So I guess the influx , followed by the outflow, of the Russian billionaires did not have much bearing on ordinary Londoners . Which was my point.

There was no tax revenue to begin with-nobody paid income taxes in WA before the millionaire tax. The jobs the rich will take with are few and very specialized: tax accountants, security people, some administrative assistants. When billiona

I don’t really care about whatever taxes the politicians will heap on the rich. My point is that if the rich leave it will not the economic calamity so many pundits forecast. Life will go on without rich people. Just look at Oregon for exam

You missed this part in the article: “ Estate tax planning has become so effective that wealthy families can now easily pass large portions of their estates to their heirs without paying the tax” The beneficiaries then set up their own tax

Debt is usually rolled over if the billionaire is still rich (banks will do that for fees). The only expenses are the interest charges- which were small 3 years ago but larger now because of how interest rate increased. Re: estate taxes - a

If the ultra wealthy move out a few people will lose their jobs (their family office, some accountants, some property managers will work the same job for someone else). But overall people will not be worse off. We have been doing this exact

Serious question: to figure out the answer why did you not go to the IRS website for that field? This is how I ultimately answer any tax questions I have.

I also need to clarify something: I was trying to say that for a long time regular Germans did not know about abuses on Jews; until it was too late that is. After all the book starts with the synagogue burning in 1938. This is very differen

One thing I took from the book is that only 1 million of Germans out of 80 million in 1939 was part of the system that killed the Jews (worked in the ministries, railways, police, Gestapo, SS). The rest 79 million were not exposed-and the N

Yeah, spinning up millions of VMs to guess the next word in a sentence is innovation. It is all yours, my friend.

American Companies stopped innovating about 15 years ago (AI does not count as innovation ). The last innovation that happened in America was cloud computing. Since then innovation happened in China, Korea and Japan. I personally am reverti

I am reading this book now and from reading the book to me it seems there are some differences between 1930s Germany and 2026 US: 1. Germans back then were conformist people and following other Germans; especially authority figures. America

Kudos to the author : this article read like something out of The Onion.

Actually a much better and easier solution to gerrymandering would be to increase the number of House representatives to be the same proportion of population it was in 1776. There will be roughly 15,000 representatives in the House. Gerryma

(I am not sure if you argue for the sake of arguing, or something worse. In any case, this is the last time I reply to you. Feel free to have the last word). What you wrote would make sense if Trump would be driven by rationale. But as ever

US stopped bombing Iranian oil infrastructure when Iran responded by taking out a chunk of Qatar LNG infrastructure for a few years [0]. This example shows the escalation ladder and also proves that Iran does not need nukes for this conflic

Besides inflation, American has other problems like running out of missiles and bombs. This war is about attrition, and American weapons are being attrited faster than Iranian ones. The war is not over, but I would not count out the Iranian

Since this is the truth, yes, I would like the documentary to end by saying it is too late for natural habitat regeneration.

I am glad if Bitcoin worked so well for you. Conceptually though, Warren Buffet is right - Bitcoin has no intrinsic value. Besides scammers and criminals almost nobody uses Bitcoin for transactions. Nobody buys a car, a slice of pizza, a bo

I like South Park's take on this. If you smoke marihuana nothing will happen to you. 15 years later you will still be watching TV on your parents' living room couch :).
