Still, you must ask yourself, what does it mean to criminalize theft when huge segments of the population either does it, or has the privile of not needing it, or is an supposedly unwitting beneficiary. If I indirectly aid a possibly crimin

That's a clickbait book title, not an academic study. The book cites examples of prosecutorial overreach, not all of which obtained convictions. And the examples tend to the arcane, like importing food, not activities most people enga

Property tax is progressive because rich people purchase more property, and real property tax is critically important because real estate is a permanently finite resource.

What possible benefit is there to sell a property just to buy another? That just burns transaction costs, and forcing people to live alone harm's mental health and is economically inefficient. Your Plan is built on prejudice not logic

Retric has made many posts conflating above-average intelligence with the extremely high intelligence that the article talks about.

Are you joking? Jeff Dean fails by your metric of "game changing", and so do almost everyone at Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple, except for the 6 people at the top of the hierarchy. You think Larry and Sergey ar slept respons
