But that’s my point exactly. You saying “I only support the law if it’s implemented ineffectigely and my kids can circumvent it”. So what you should just be saying is that you don’t support the law. You can be saying you support it on the c

Plagerism isn’t the copying part, it’s the part where you claim to be the author of something you are not the author of. Hope that helps to clear up things. You can plagerism content that your are both legally and ethically allowed to copy.

Because it’s becoming increasingly obviously dumb to be paying farmers money to pretend like they are farming their land. What I mean is that if we removed the subsidies the farmers wouldn’t farm their land, the market just doesn’t work to
