This reminds me of California's ban on selling some products in large size containers. A person can buy 1 quart cans of some wood finishing products, but 1 gallon cans cannot be sold. Of course, this means if that person really wants t

I find the strength of your argument unconvincing. It's possible that is how it will play out, but it's possible it will also play out differently. My expectation is that uncertainty is part of the second amendment calculus.

Sonic is doing a fair amount of fiber in the east bay. In fact, I just got my fiber connection installed today in South Berkeley. I know AT&T is also doing fiber in the peninsula and in the east bay. I just checked today and the place I

In this case the removal is referring to the removal of the right. So, red flag laws do not require time to remove your right to own guns while they do require time to restore your right.

The person you're replying to said that it hasn't been operating well since FDR, so they agree with you that. It sounds like something is wrong with lending if someone is willing to lend to them based on inflated asset prices!

Part of this is due to building codes. For example, in California, solar photovoltaic is now required on new buildings.

I think there are victims for public camping but people will argue about the severity of the victimization. For example, I have to step off the sidewalk into the street in order to get by a set of tents. Agreed on public intoxication.

In an opinion by Judge Ikuta, the court “concludes that the development of a face template using facial-recognition technology without consent (as alleged here) invades an individual’s private affairs and concrete interests.” As the court

I don't agree with your point at all. A high margin business should then be able to get away with massive data breaches compared to a low margin business going bust? It's not about fairness, it's about actually achieving your

You say transfer like it's coming from the employee. Adam Smith would say the wealth is being created by the resources that the company brings along with the labor that the employee brings.

I'm not sure what your question is getting at, but if I owned a business, a fine proportional to the profit that I would otherwise receive would hurt equally for a low margin business and a high margin business.

I suppose it's just like how the tax law changes in the US were not designed to hurt high-tax liberal states more than low-tax conservative states, but that the high-tax liberal states were just taking advantage of the standard deducti

Ah, I suppose I would have less concern with this more broad definition of slavery. A child being forced to do chores would qualify as slavery in this case, right?
