This is actually what financial advisors would tell you, if you worked for a publicly traded company. I.e., treat the shares granted as cash income by selling them, and separate your income from your investment decisions. For startups shar

Nothing to do with Sarbanes-Oxley, although that was a popular talking point a decade ago. It's entirely the market. All of the companies in this article could/should have gone public in 2021. They simply missed their window.

Or maybe concentrating it that way makes the rest of the country a lot nicer to live in

No, it's a Delaware company

No, the only "actually" is that a deal was announced to buy the company that has that. The acquisition won't be finished for months if at all (government may block based on antitrust concerns)

Interesting. Which shipper provides that level of specificity, and do you have to pay extra for it? I've only seen the city name and some value description like "Fedex origin city" or "Fedex hub"

"Visible" might be a better word. Far more dollars are stolen from bank accounts, wages, etc. but there are no striking photos of that.

Right, so humans are opening the boxes and looking inside. Not exactly a quick or efficient way of stealing. As opposed to backing up a truck and carting off the packages by the truckload.

How exactly do you know your packages were "all traveling via train through L.A."?

Not in developed countries it doesn't.

Only in America do cops allow basically The Hunger Games to occur, while they stand by and do nothing

Wow, America is far more messed up than I had realized previously. Not sure I know of any developed country where armed citizens can simply chose to do that.

Entirely misses the point

So in America, the police just kinda stand by while "so much of the city was being destroyed" and two people are killed. Wow.

by muzz 5y ago
So no police report. Got it.

Did he stop and talk to the police or keep going? How long after the shootings did the "police station in another nearby town" occur? Also, whom did the call after his first shooting-- the police or someone else?

by muzz 5y ago
Is there any police record? Or any evidence at all that the police heard that?

Also being not an American, I'm puzzled as to how there is apparently no requirement to report self-defense killings to the police. I guess when they find dead bodies in the street, they just assume it was self defense?

Recently these plants were being built in places like Malaysia. Coastal parts of the US became far to expensive for this kind of manufacturing many decades ago.

And plenty of subsidies: "with a $27 million grant from the state of Texas. Larger tax breaks and incentives are expected for the facility."

"with a $27 million grant from the state of Texas. Larger tax breaks and incentives are expected for the facility." Every time a company expands in Texas there seems to be a tax break involved

Quite a contrast from the automation-driven jobs loss that was being forecast back in 2016, even by those who should have known better. For example a quote from a piece by Ryan Petersen, the CEO of Flexport: "driverless trucking is r
