The U.S. still cooperates with Russia on certain matters despite the countries being enemies.

Indeed. And I hope you can cope with the knowledge that some women don't need men.

This all while a single hostile nation wants to dictate what China is allowed or not allowed to buy on the free market. Xi has abandoned the wise policies of Deng and is setting China back. Due to the idiocy of Xi it's not a single

I don’t like the liberal do gooders in academia. The ones who think they are doing something meaningfully good by putting land acknowledgement statements in their syllabus are equally pathetic. Usually there are a few equally qualified app

There is no expense of each other. Men are not oppressed. They are not discriminated against in any meaningful way. The crisis they are going through is self inflicted. It is annoying to hear the false cries of victim hood. Boo hoo f

And for thousands of years the problems women faced have been caused primarily by men. Now there is “liberation” in some western countries and men have a problem. They think, incorrectly, that they are oppressed or otherwise being discrimi

There is a crisis with men. But it stems, I believe, from not being as coddled as they once were in terms of privilege. An equal playing field is not something men seem to be able to deal with. A solution will not be obtained by misident

There is an enrollment crisis. It is not because colleges are denying entry by men. It is because men are not even attempting to go to college. Men don’t seem to be able to deal with a society in which they are not coddled as much as in

I’m not a boomer. Born in the 70s. I’m a white a male who teaches in higher education. White men have a more or less equal opportunity in terms of going to college. Until recently college admissions were on the decline and most colleges

When I was in graduate school in the late 90s I took a flight home for the summer break. I was reading a math research paper during the flight. An elderly lady that sat next to me and asked if was reading a mathematics paper. I said yes.

This is not correct. In, say, Aspen locals are priced out. If there was a two tiered pricing system this could alleviate some major concerns. Haven’t thought about unintended consequences of this. Just wanted to point out that what you

Can you use it for subscriptions and have the future payments rejected if you decide to stop using this method for that subscription? Almost every credit card updates subscriptions to the new number automatically if you replace a card and

I imagine the mining of materials, waste from discarded car, etc. makes up for these things but I don’t know. I do think overall we are a very wasteful society and we cause way too much pollution.

From an environmental perspective it’s a good thing. Don’t know if that makes it worth it but we are creating far too much pollution.

What do you think about Cubans keeping cars from 1950s running for as long as they did? It seems to me that maybe we live in a society that is overly permissive of replacing items.

It is a bit of hubris to think you know this. How do you know that your experience is normative in that culture? Without studying the topic in depth you can’t know that you have not lived in a bubble so to speak.

You don’t know the results will be different without running a study, right?

They are not the same. One is far more capable than the other. Can an abacus numerically solve a differential equation in a few seconds?

Your statement assumes a conclusion that has not been established and indeed that conclusion is wrong in my opinion. We can tax wealth and tax money transfers out of the country and do a host of other things to equalize things. We can est

Currently we live in a society in which a few people have more wealth than tens of millions. The distribution of resources in the world is grossly unfair and there needs to be an evening out of this distribution. Let's first have a m

I believe labor is worth whatever the employer can get away with. As such the value of the cheapest labor is what society allows companies to get away with. An employee's wages should be high enough to live off of and this should be

It’s been made clear that all laws are useless unless they have 100% compliance. Hence the need the for anarchism. But while we wait for anarchism thankfully there are people like you out there vigilantly seeking to safeguard the freedoms

You missed the part about “every county should do this”. The free rider problem is an issue. Also, my proposal is different than an income tax. A person who accumulates great wealth from within a country should not be allowed to transfer

I see your point. Since we can’t have 100% accuracy on enforcement we should not enact this. Indeed, no law should ever be enacted until 100% enforcement can be obtained. Thank you for this insight. I’m now an anarchist libertarian. B

I believe one can enforce export restrictions and whatnot. It’s not an unsolvable problem though loopholes will be found and thus changes will need to be made so on and so forth.

by skhunted 2y ago
Oh no. I guess then it should never be implemented. People in the future will forever be allowed to transfer wealth as they see fit without taxation because of this loophole you found. Though in the U.S. we have precedents on this: http

Tax the money when it is moved to an account out of the country. Every country should do this. A person who accumulates great wealth within a country should have to pay a large tax whenever they move that money out of the country.

The scale, ease, and low cost of running these disinformation campaigns is unprecedented. Coupled with the ability target people susceptible to believing the disinformation and we are in a new era. Our institutions don’t appear to be stro

I don’t think in conspiracies normally but in this case I think it’s apt. I think an independent Apple Watch would cannibalize iPhone sales. Just like a fully capable iPad Pro would cannibalize Mac sales.
