I get that the renaming of the lake from the US perspective is annoying. Yet, it remains whatever Canada wants to call it on their side. Geographical place-names get renamed all the time. It’s not extraordinary. You can search for recent

4% may be optimistic but 25% is great depression levels of unemployment and it’s nowhere near that. We could be at 6%.

iPhones and speakers (headsets, earsets) are accessories, furniture is more permanent (unless it’s near-disposable). You don’t typically update furniture every two to three years (with exception for people who like to show off their wealth

Yes, they would have to prove that there was incriminating data on the phone. However, destroying potential evidence before there is suspicion of a crime is also a crime if done with intent to undermine a future investigation. It's qui

Sure, and referring to the whole of the UK as England is also a thing. It’s confusing but people are people. Or as they say in some parts of “England” it’s queer as folk.

Close. But it's not (re)named Lake Americas. Remember, there are two continents, North America and South America. It's not one continent; however, jointly they can be called The Americas.

It’s almost becoming like prehistorical anthropology and archeology. Lots of assumptions and imagination and low on evidence. Obviously with pre historical things we have to use our imagination since evidence is either scant or non-existen

That suffers from the stereotype fallacy. Some majors have huge ROI while others leave graduates very frustrated with their prospects. Not everyone will benefit from a degree. Not all degrees are financially sound. If people think that al

We should allow students to discharge their loans if they cannot repay them. This means risk will be assigned to borrowers and that would squeeze the ability for kids to take out loans on stupid majors that have absolutely no hope of ROI,

Alternatively CC companies could cut off people over certain credit risk and then be able to charge interest in line with the lower overall credit risk… Borrowers can also keep from overextending their credit and go on debit cards instead…

It's a shame people are drifting from vaccines but the unwillingness of the WHO, etc., to backtrack on claims that turned out false with respect to Covid, does not help the cause. The sausage-making history that's coming out from

What country does not have immigration laws? We’re not unique in having them nor in enforcing them. Check out Taiwan, China, Singapore, Japan, Egypt, South Africa, Chile, Peru, Canada, etc.
