I was in Northern Vietnam in 2019, happily riding my rental scooter around. I ride right past a dog on a rotisserie. I stopped to talk to the guy and he showed me his sign that said Dog Meat. After learning the words for dog meat in Vietnam

What does "building housing for poor people" even mean? I assume you mean building housing so inexpensive that even "poor" people can afford it. I just don't understand how you build housing in Malibu that is so ch

Marriage isn't perfect, especially not with today's divorce law and family court system, but the idea of joining into a union with a new person and creating a new family unit, even if without kids, is probably the best system for

I worked at a luxury dealership that also had a full electric. Teslas were constantly trade in by fancy people that were disillusioned by how terrible a Tesla is inside. Even to me as a car salesman, a Tesla is just a fancy commute car. It

I would argue that it's because DMV is in charge of car dealerships... But doesn't Tesla not have legal dealerships?

No, I meant non gas station providing air for free... Since we're on the topic of businesses giving free services only tangentially related to what they sell.

Unless you buy weird bad cars, your odds of an actual engine failure is very low. Transmission trouble is a bit more common but stick to most well regarded models and you'll also be fine. My family basically only buys high miles cars

I don't really get it. Stockton CA is a bad place because housing prices rose too fast? The average house there is now probably 300k. If they were 100k still, Stockton would have less murder and car theft?

Did you check any crime stats for the neighborhood, or were you expecting to see burglary, rape and murder as you drove by that second? Someone tells you it's bad, and all you notice is the color of people's skin.

Everyone has equal opportunity I believe. Equal outcome? That's Bs. I'm a hard worker and decently smart. Do I get to own a single family home with a large yard in Malibu?? No? Why not!! That's not equitable is it!

I was trying to figure out why I equated cheap with bad which you pointed out to me. I think it's because I figured if someone built cheap housing, and it was actually nice and somewhere you wanted to be, it wouldn't stay cheap fo

Ok I guess bad is not nice. But they're clearly not as safe nor as nice as the more expensive neighborhoods of the same community. And I wasn't saying they should be this way. I guess I was just going from basic observation and s

It's not going to be mixed income. It's going to be segregated incomes living near by each other, both resenting the other. In Las Vegas suburbs you can sometimes see the various neighborhoods with Drastic obvious cost/value

You say he's been lying about the laws, and for proof you offer the fact that no one's been arrested for it yet. Is that really how it works? If the government doesn't prosecute, then the law that is written should not be dis

That would be a heck of a suction to help a car produce several Gs. 'Fan cars' give more traction for sure.. I'm not so sure about pass out levels of traction.

Once again this is a bit misleading. Sure there are crimes at gas stations. I don't stop at those sketchy looking inner city gas stations. Also, most crimes are against the employees of the stations. And finally, there are a lot of cri

I worked at a small "automall" of several dealerships. Our system operated inventory numbers based on the last 6 digits of the vin#. Sounds like with 1 million options, you'd be fine. It didn't take long for duplicates
