I think the case is actually about forcing the fed to lower the rates because merchants think they are unfairly high, not whether they have the right to set the rates, which came from the Dodd-Frank Act.

It can't be debased by a crackpot dictator but it can be debased by the crackpot market. If you "stored value" from 2021 in BTC, you'd only have about half of that value right now. Granted, if you "stored value"

No one earning $7.25 is going to pay anything to file their taxes, unless they got duped(which is totally possible).

Better be Mobile then - I think the rest of AL counts as inland.

Try stopping by Maxie's in Milwaukee before you repeat that statement :) Though maybe Lake Michigan is big enough for Wisconsin to not count as an inland state.

They don't directly factor in improvements, but the improvements are generally why land value increases/decreases.

No, they've been there for a long time. It's just they're handing the site back over to the developers in two days. But - the good news - they're just building houses for people on this site. If, at some point in the fut

A union would have also changed the distribution of who was laid off. Basically, fresh grads who have very little seniority would be the ones kicked to the curb. Whereas MS had the option to lay off exactly who they wanted...maybe it was ce

My response was about the logic of "help catch up and adapt" is a colonialist dogwhistle, not about the specifics of what was being argued.

Infant mortality is something like 3.3 per 1000 in the UK. 25% of that happens in the first week, and women are usually discharged with their baby after 2 or 3 days. And that mortality rate includes things like known defects that are incomp

I used to review charges, and it was always a pain. I know where I shop and don't shop, so if I see a charge for a place I don't shop, it is clearly fraud. But, a lot of fraud happens where you shop(because that is where people ma

Income is easier to calculate, but wouldn't "total net worth" be more fair? An ultra rich person might show no income for a year and pay no taxes, because they lost a small fraction of their wealth, whereas an ultra poor pers

What if you found some random joe that looks just like DiCaprio, and paid him $100 to use his likeness in a movie? That's always been possible, but in the past it would be clear that random Joe isn't a good actor and DiCaprio is.

If you've ever dealt with NYC cops, you know they loathe to accept crime reports. I'm not sure the reason, maybe they want to keep the reported crime rate down, maybe they just don't want to do the desk work of writing the re

That's one way to look at it. Another is that Mossadegh was legally asked to step down, and refused, and then the person with the legal right ousted Mossadegh. Regardless, if we don't like dictators or power grabs, then we certain

Good olive oil is as complex as good wine or coffee can be. I recommend going to an olive oil shop and doing a guided tasting of a few different olive oils.
