In every new team, on first retrospective I test it with a simple: let's get rid of retrospectives (followed by: let's not make demos). If it passes the manager, this is a true retro - never happened.

I think a good entry point for making public healthcare better would be making each doctor visit require a small amount of money. E.g. $1 or $5. This way people that go to doctor just to have a talk (because they are bored - yes that happen

Universal healthcare is well overrated in the US. From a country that had it, it usually means: ugly hospitals, sad faces, long queues for treatments (I mean wait time for "free" treatment can be well over a year). There is no fre

No no, you pay not the gain of transaction, you pay tax for the whole amount. And then deduct the amount of fiat you used to buy crypto. So, you buy 100 USDC for $100 - you report that in your tax information (for use in following years tax

Sorry, but I'm aware how it works in my country and the taxable event is only when you exchange into fiat, service or a physical object. Example for Poland: http://lexplorers.pl/en/polish-taxation-rules-virtual-cur

Why? You eventually have to pay it when you cash out (or buy service, goods with crypto). If you wait you loose tax returns for the amount you invested in crypto (with each year you have it halved). Basically this is the same as in case of

By larger context you mean what? Choosing between Jew or Polish population? Or maybe lets see what happened in Ukraine which was under USSR occupation before the WW2 - Holodomor which resulted in up to 3 - 5.5 million people dead, which is

Nazis wanted to enslave Slavs, not kill them. USSR wanted to kill anyone that had above elementary school education - basically killing the head. Which was much better end strategy, because there wouldn't be anyone to revolt.
