I think his point stands broadly regardless of the specific example you take issue with. The heyday of radical left wing terrorism in the US was the 60's and 70's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-wing_terro

I taught myself circuit board design and found a niche market that I designed a few products for that sold like gangbusters with zero marketing for a few years until the market cooled off and low cost knock offs started entering the market.

Depending on where you are going you options are probably Iridium Certus, BGAN, or Thuraya. I believe groundcontrol.com sells or rents all three.

I feel like the desired reaction to this is that gentrification or whatever you want to call this is bad but I think that is the wrong conclusion to draw. It is better to view this as a historical retrospective. Otherwise why not pine for

Since Uber drivers are independent contractors you need to account for the extra ~7.6% Social Security and Medicare tax they will have to pay when comparing it on a $/hr basis to w-2 jobs. If they are also paying Uber drivers for their

The IRS deduction for business vehicle use in 2019 is 58 cents per mile. So they have effectively reduced the per mile payment to the cost of operating the vehicle. Seems like they are on the verge of turning driving for Uber into a revers
