Well, no. The countries that have done this have almost invariably done it within a 30-year timespan. Japan after WWII, China at the turn of the century, the Netherlands starting in the 70s. Even American cities like DC have made significan

Such a huge investment. You could say that the whole endeavor cost an arm and a leg.

Multiple members of my family have tattoos or brands. I've just never felt the need to permanently mark my body like that, so I feel like I'm considered somewhat boring or vanilla for not getting one myself. Of course, they don&#x

Very few, if any, but there are cities that use busses for what they're good for, and not as a bad urban planner's trams.

I'd wager that the rates of abuse in public schools are not as high as in Catholic schools. I'd go so far as to say that there isn't necessarily anything about Catholicism that produces more pedophiles than normal, and that

Busses are a band-aid that get employed as a cure too often. Ideally, you're running trams at surface level with decently-distanced stops and biking/walking infrastructure in between. Busses require infrastructure - large roads -

The realistic solution puts car manufacturers and certain food processors out of business (unless they learn to compete as export-focused/non-addiction-based businesses), so... Yeah, maybe not so realistic. But the obesity stats of cou

I finally got it after a good few hundred tries, iirc. Prep for having the patience to finish Final Fantasy XV's Pitioss dungeon. My boyfriend at the time (who'd bought VVVVVV for me), on the other hand, was attempting a no-death-

Yes, that was my original point. Other than >and both the readers and the publication are aware of this Publications wouldn't bother if they thought that readers could discern that this was what they were doing. As you say, the poin

The redistributive effect of taxes is a feature, not a bug. Inequality distorts political and social dynamics. One of the functions of taxation is to make rich people less rich, and we shouldn't run from that.

This is why high progressive tax rates, let alone high marginal tax rates, are justifiable. The less you earn, the lower a percentage of your earnings you can afford to lose before having to make drastic lifestyle changes. However, relative

That's quite unfair. Trump's support cut across a wide swath of (mostly white) Americans, including educated and/or well-off coastal and Midwest voters. Many, many people who considered themselves well-informed, in the mains
