To wit, CA charges $800 PER YEAR to have an LLC. For many small one person LLCs, that $800 a year makes a big difference. $8,000 over a decade.

Your father is erring toward things that have been proven over time. The flu shot has decades of use and data. So does Ivermectin (the open question is how effective it is wrt Covid-19). They are proven safe. They are FDA approved, Covid sh

These shots are not FDA approved yet. Usually that's compelling enough to look for and consider alternatives. Especially existing cheap off patent drugs that have been used billions of times over the course of decades and recently won

Taking a horse quantity of any drug is unwise, even one that won the 2015 Nobel Prize (Ivermectin). It still needs large scale RCTs for Covid-19 use, but there are some small trials that at least indicate it should be taken seriously and no

How reliable is that?

by seriousquestion 5y ago

Why is that disastrous, given that you have to be obsessed and highly risk tolerant to found a new moonshot company? That's why men are more common here. It's not some conspiracy. They are simply more likely to be obsessed, unbala

SF and NYC are supported by the government around them, and look at the explosion of violence and crime in those cities over the past year. Not so in Austin.

Both can be true. Texas fears too much centralized power and Abbott likes cash. Texans put up with the latter because of the former.
