It's ultimately a lack of "class". The scenario you're describing requires that the wealthy maintain a set of social virtues that are more important than money. One of those virtues must then be that greed is seen as ver

Man, he's older than Trump, by about a month and speaks so much more coherently than either Trump or Biden. Knowing his age I was just expecting him to sound similar to them. He seems to still be incredibly sharp though, literally not

>Also how could insurance ever be a "for profit" business? What? They plan to take in more in premiums than they pay out in claims by managing risks and underwriting. In that sense it's like a bookmaker who plans to set a

Only thing I insure is umbrellas. They never last more than 2-3 years and a 7 year replacement plan for like 8.99 is a reasonable deal. Anything else I tend to just go with credit card purchase protection and MFR warranty.

Are people really saying they missed out on "personal growth" when they had kids? Taking care of kids is not that hard or much of a sacrifice really. It would be super easy if things were even more communal. There's just real

I think it's just selection bias for women with fat asses. Baby got back came out in 1992, and remained popular for quite sometime. It puts the people most influenced by it right around the age on having first graders. And of course it

Cherry picking pallets is a big deal and all the warehouses try to say they don't, but everyone does it. The only one I went to that was legit, had people line up outside when a truck arrived and everyone bid on the pallets as they we

Yes, that's interesting and somewhat amusing. But is it accurate or in any way beneficially worthy of billion dollar valuations??

Yeah but homes were priced based on that historical trend. Now the high interest rates are pushing up against a decade plus of very low interest rates. There are willing sellers that can't actually sell because even with significant eq

Yes pretty much, unless there is another senator that's actively opposing it. But lots of tiny laws with big implications get stuck on to spending bills and get passed with no opposition. For example, the corruption at the Atlanta airp

Algo trading is certainly about speed too though, but it's not HFT which is literally only a out speed and scalping spreads. It's about the speed of recognizing trends and reacting too them before everyone else realizes the same t

But they did invest in digitals, heavily. There just wasn't enough there to power the huge ship that had been driven by film. Even if they controlled the entire digitals market it wouldn't compare to the previous film market. Perh

It's not that they didn't respond. They had loads of digital printers, cameras, digital picture frames, photo papers. They even had fairly innovative stuff, the Kodak Easyshare Frame's fetched a good price for a while. The fi

Isn't the Catholic church becoming the roman Catholic church or vice versa sort of the same thing? Even with the split into Protestant it's still essentially the same core and looking back 5000 years from now it would probably be

Not having policies which penalize marriage would be a good start. For most people if they are "poor" being married means less access to benefits. The ACA / Obamacare is well known for it's marriage penalty but many othe

The current Whitehouse is actually a great source of misinformation. My favorite being the tweet to push back on inflation that a conspicuously arranged 4th of July cookout was $0.16 cheaper than last year. https://twitter.com&#x

That's from inflation. Look at CVS revenue growth and that's with a declining customer volume. Fewer customers buying fewer items, but fairly massive revenue growth.

For me, personally, React makes up too many new things just with potentially slight modification and thus adding unnecessary layers of complexity. Then it is incredibly painful if you're ever in a position to debug someone else's
