I hate to break it to you but Britain is "offering little" because they actually have more negotiating power.

> Saying people voted for a "no deal" because they voted for Brexit is disingenuous. Not what I said. I said they voted to leave regardless of deal. So if EU doesn't want to make a deal then so be it. The no-deal hysteria

It stands to reason that the EU would not agree with the decision. If a "no deal" is the only way it can be done then that is what is done. That's what the people voted for. Britain is the second largest net contributor to th

Good question. I suppose to test that you would have to give "placebo" scores to some people to see what impact knowing your score has - if any.

Its true that IQ is only one of many important factors that lead to success. However IQ on its own turns out to be an excellent predictor of success and also happens to be easy to measure. Most other traits are extremely difficult to quanti

> we admit students based on a skills assessment evaluation that aspires to be blind to those criteria I think that is a good approach. Thanks for the response.

Hi Shaan, I appreciate when services get creative with monetization approaches. The 10% fee of first year income is quite interesting. It seems like a good way to charge for education because it incentivizes the educator to put the student

One of the pros of capitalism is money is made by giving people what they value and giving people what they value is the right thing. No bills are needed only a change in values.

> The people dying of opioid crisis are of all ethnicities. If you think the opioid epidemic is happening everywhere you have more research to do. This problem is targeted and deliberate.

Please don't thought police. Extremely important and relevant points are being made. If this information/opinion can't be shared here where will this discussion happen?

The Fentanyl epidemic is a deliberate attack on North America from the Chinese Government. You don't fear the Chinese Government when you ARE the Chinese Government.

Facts and Truth are not entirely the same thing. To property discuss the dangers of Fentanyl we must first agree on what "safe" means. Even though Fentanyl is unlikely to kill you, in terms of living a meaningful and fulfilling li

It worked wonders for smoking cigarettes. Stigmatizing tobacco played a huge part in lowering the number of people using it.

Only if you're talking about not killing people. By "destroying lives" I'm not talking exclusively about death. As dangerous as alcohol is, one can still have a highly functional life even when abusing it.

Opioids are not stigmatized enough. They destroy lives plain and simple.

Exactly. I wouldn't reduce the CO2 even if it was possible.

The combination of price and absence of user upgradable M.2 SSD drives make this product un-viable in my opinion. The current price is fine if I could upgrade the drive later. Non-upgrade-able SSD would be acceptable if the price for larger

My comment corrected the assertion that the top 3% take home 80% of the income - and was written without bias (the marxist comment was added after the downvotes).

Bingo. This is what annoys me about mainstream pundits always parroting the claim that "those tax cuts were only for the rich".

The content itself doesn't cont much but that isn't what people are after. Most of the budget goes towards branding to build trust in the content. That is what you are really paying for - the feeling that your sources are credible
