This has nothing to do with my question, and is suggesting that Republicans sent out more stimulus than Democrats when we passed bipartisan bills for stimulus checks under both Republican and Democrat administration. Republicans have conti

Senators from West Virginia do not represent the mainstream Democrat views, so let's not cherry pick an example that ended over a decade ago. Instead, let's have a substantive conversation about policy. What specific policies are

I don't think it's related to a time period, more just random external factors. Obviously, there has to be some periodicity because a there's no such thing as a back to back crash, it would just bigger crash, but I don'

The last crisis happened a little less than a decade ago, and crisises happen way more often than you seem to realize. 2008, 2001, 1987, 1973 all saw crashes due to some sort of crisis. It seems to happen about once a decade now. There w

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. It's not ransomware, but it pretended to be for misattribution. How are you contradicting what I said?

Is it that the 56th hour you don't do anything, or that the 56th hour makes the other hours 1/55th less productive, therefore making it seem like you are getting something with the extra hour?

I mean, notPetya claimed to be ransomware, but you couldn't pay the ransom, so yes, at least some ransomware is politically motivated instead of financially motivated.

Absolutely, it's better to have a ransomware attack against the workstations instead of a more developed attack that blew the pipeline up.

Is that a swipe against the article? I think she would argue Dark Matter is so over parametrized it no longer makes meaningful predictions. And the argument that any new particle requires a new quantum field makes total sense. So Dark Ma

All previous evidence of life on Mars (which there have been a lot of claims about) have proven false. (Including similar claims about potential evidence based on rovers). That is what makes this an extraordinary claim.

I don't think this is a good example. Zelda: Link's Awakening, while ground breaking, can be, and has been improved upon. Using those resources to create a better user experience is not inefficiency. That's the entire poin

So, you admit there is such a thing as wire and mail fraud, and those laws should exist, and yet if someone is convicted of those crimes it is automatically because they couldn't convict them of another crime. And you don't know

Are you saying he didn't commit a crime or he shouldn't be held legally responsible for what he did? I don't see how your view is consistent with anything else.

You can't lie to your employer about receiving money from another company in exchange for preferential treatment. That's the definition of fraud. So, yes, receiving the bribes was absolutely illegal

Sure. I was being mostly flippant, and you're correct, a regulation has to be regular. But I doubt the OP is seriously advocation we start inconsistently applying laws.

What does this mean? I'm pretty sure the main alternative- China - is both over regulated and is very bureaucratic.

I agree that more should have been done, but the director of the OPM did resign, which is basically being fired in that kind of position. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/07/10/421783403.

It's possible it's a side effect of something else. Maybe they are using directed microwaves to power eavesdropping equipment, and the individuals in proximity to that equipment are getting sick.

I am American, and I understand how health insurance works, and the fact that people are put into a position where it doesn't make sense to buy health insurance is the problem, not that individuals make that choice.
