This is just a coverup. Otherwise they're confiscating one Chinese manufactured wireless ear buds to protect another Chinese manufactured ear buds. Actually Apple is moving some production of Airpods to Vietnam. Because why manufacture

Sorry, buts carbon offsets are utter BS. Google has a 500,000 square foot office in Los Angeles. The City of Los Angeles gets 20% of its electricity from a coal plant in Utah. Power is fungible, you cannot select the source for your power i

A single member LLC dopes not have to file a tax return - same as a sole proprietorship. Unless there is a partnership, or you need to have some sort of corporate veil for legal reasons, then there is little value in an LLC if a sole owner.

If the equipment is designed for 20A and plugged into a 15A circuit, wouldn't the 15A breaker trip long before it could start a fire? Seems the main problem would be constantly resetting the breaker.

href="javascript:..." is just as bad. I want to hover over a link and see where it goes before I click. That makes navigation fair to the user, as opposed to "guess what's behind door number 3"

I don't agree with the tax, I also don't agree with this poster that this tax is going after the "leftovers". The primary intent of the wealth tax seems to be going after unrealized capital gains. Stock appreciation that
