LLC in the US does. I suppose for a few hundreds or thousands you could incorporate in Canada too - though I believe Sole Proprietorship is the most popular type of business by FAR, and with sole proprietorship the proprietor is 100% liable

How are you so sure that I'm not part of the majority that faces systemic discrimination? I can tell you right now if I had applied to university in the same town I went to college in I would be discriminated against - I don't mat

You don't know me or my situation so don't speak like you do. I bargained with collections to give me the time. I paid the electric bill with promises of “If you shut it off right now, I cannot earn the money to pay the bill, but

Health care doesn't pay the electric bills. Health care doesn't buy groceries. I am glad if I went to the doctor I could have been seen without a cost to me. I didn't NEED a doctor, I needed food to eat, and money to pay bill

So a bracket like that which stifles motivation would absolutely hurt industry, economy, and innovation. Its like youre in a race against every other business and country in the world, and you say: "hey, lets put these leg cuffs on! No

You must be joking, I know an awful lot of americans with laptops. Its not like mortgaging a house! And Im not talking about 'above living expenses'. When I bought mine I had no money for the electric bill. I leveraged the laptop

Its not about an increased tax ration, its about entitlement and motivation. Would you feel better giving $1000 to charity, or having $500 stolen from you?

Using the government to redistribute money to those in need is like giving your right arm a blood transfusion from your own left arm, but spilling 2/3 of the blood on the way over. I strongly believe in charity and social assistance, b

If they give taxes a bump of course, but what if they radically rearrange taxes. There are many voices i hear who believe people above certain limits should be taxed 90% or more, and some cutoff limits Ive heard have been 250k, or even 100k

Maybe on paper, or in theory. In my life I'm not ashamed to say it was the hunger of having nothing, no safety net, and having no job that STILL drives me today. That fire that got started when I had bills and no money is still burning

As a Canadian entrepreneur I worry that mincome/basic income will serve to knock the wind out of the sails of many innovators and entrepreneurs who, like me, are currently DRIVEN to work hard, research, push the industry along and cran

Let me introduce you to the word “pusillanimous”. It means showing a lack of courage or determination, or being timid. So when you call somebody a 'pussy' for not having the courage to do something that has _nothing_ to do with fe

The problem isnt so much SVG rendering, its that you can grab an icon font with 400 icons that look great, its easy to add them to places beside text, like in menus or on buttons. You can use SVG, but there is no CDN-hosted SVG sprite with
