The truth is, getting split up isn't even a punishment! When companies get split up for being a monopoly, they usually end up being even more valuable than when they were a monopoly. See Bell Telephone for a good example of this. When

But this introduces a huge pain and expense of preparing US taxes every year even if you live abroad and don't step foot on US soil. Additionally, tons of foreign banks won't let you set up accounts even if you live in their count

I wonder who hired them. Sure, it could be the CEO of Wirecard, but it could also be another large shareholder. Given how ridiculous this story is and how Germany's regulator BaFIN has done such a horrendous job looking over Wirecard,

NPR's Invisibilia did a really interesting show/podcast on one of the biggest short sellers of Wirecard and how he has been harassed for the past few years. I highly recommend people listen to if if they are interested in this cra

I've heard a lot of conservative voices calling for this too. The only problem is that the US is far from Sweden--no universal health care, no guaranteed sick leave, and no real safety net for workers. It would seem that if the US want

I can second The Economist. I find that they also have a pro-business/free market stance, but at least I find that they have reasonable and factual reporting, which I sometimes find lacking with the WSJ.

They come back in stock sporadically, probably worth it to check at odd hours.

Here is a pretty good article that assumes that you have zero knowledge and talks about how UBI could be implemented without any more inflation than we already have. https://medium.com/basic-income/wouldnt-unconditional

I think that there is a balance between blowing all of your money that you earn such that any decrease in salary would be catastrophic and driving a decrepit car, living in a cramped room with an hour+ commute, and not spending a dime more

I can highly recommend the eponymous book by the speaker. It is a long read, but a fascinating read. Here is a link to the publisher's page on it: https://www.publicaffairsbooks.com/titles/shoshana-zuboff/th..

All of the European rail companies I can think of off the top of my head (Germany, France, Spain, UK) are owned by the government, so it is possible. It seems like only in the USA is there the notion that the government is completely unable
