Just because there is no central authority in control of crypto transactions like traditional banks does not mean laws and courts no longer exist. You can steal someone’s bitcoins by hacking their wallet but you can still be ordered by a co

20 MILLION reports just from Facebook alone in one year?? I am surprised there is no discussion of the sheer scale of the problem. Will we need to build more prisons once this new system is rolled out?

We can start by taxing enormous corporations more, not less, and direct that tax revenue to the benefit of local communities, not the military or some general federal slush fund. If we’re not going to go after monopolies then least we could

ICE cars will always burn fossil fuels. Electric cars can consume any kind of energy as long as it is converted to electricity to first charge its battery. Maybe right now most electricity is generated via fossil fuels but you have to be re

I use Citibank for my business, I hear you, you can always go into a branch or pick up the phone to speak to a person, but their online banking system is pretty terrible and outdated by about 20 years which is why I often have to pick up th

Lots of things are not “good” but we don’t make them illegal. Maybe it would be a lot better with legal protections afforded to workers in other industries.

That’s true, and I’ll bet a lot of people know they should be investing, but don’t have the savings to do it. Employers should at minimum raise wages to keep up with inflation automatically but sadly I’m sure most just don’t care enough.

Why do you keep a cash account in your toddler's name? If you are saving for college, etc, that should be in something that grows over time, like stocks, not cash.

If you keep all your money in cash, sure. That should be a surprise to no one. If you have real estate, stocks, other assets, you're doing fine. My stock account went up 20% just in the last 6 months.

You don’t have to completely eliminate it. Maybe someone suffering from cluster headaches only has to go through a migraine level of pain to realize there is a problem, not suffer through childbirth level pain every time an attack comes on.

So then why institute a ban? If opponents are so confident that the private sector will do such a good job, let the municipality compete with private providers and offer residents the choice, see who wins.

Agreed. If your product just works, “sales” is a piece of cake. If it doesn’t and you find yourself hiring a fancy expensive charismatic sales team just to convince people to buy your product then that’s borderline fraud imo.
