I wonder if they're confusing the cause and effect. Do people who live above 8k feet not die of heart disease or do people with heart disease find it too difficult to live above 8k feet so only people without heart disease live above 8

I think the truth is we have too many farmers and instead of letting the market decide which ones continue and which ones fold, we subsidise to keep them all going. It's been happening for decades and needs to change. It'll be a

"child care available to all New Mexicans" Does this mean a stay-at-home mom or dad can get a daycare license and get paid by the state to take care of their own children?

That's simply not true. I've lived and worked in countries in South America and Africa and if, as a foreigner, you are stopped (which happened randomly on roads and in cities) and don't have your papers, you could be deported

If the economics of them setting up this factory requires illegal workers to make it viable, yeah, they should definitely second guess that decision.

If they all have valid visas and are legal to work, I'm confident they'll be released. If they've overstayed their visa or their visa doesn't permit them to work, I'm confident they'll be sent back to wherever

Are you saying companies should be allowed to break the law and hire illegal aliens so long as the cost of your veggies stays low? I'm trying to understand.

If their first instinct when caught hiring illegal workers is to "not do business in the US"... yeah, I think the US will be better off without that of business.

If you're at work and don't have a valid ID of some kind on your person that would prove you're a US citizen (Driver's license, state ID, etc), are you even an adult? I carry my ID every time I leave my house. You think

Yes. Copper (major component of brass) is seeing all-time highs at around $4.60 lb.

Likely not. They probably should though. Regardless, this is going to cost Hyundai a lot of time and money, which will disincentivize them from hiring illegal workers again. That's good for legal workers and America.

That camera bump is huge. I guess that's how you get the great zoom? Phone cases are doing heavy lifting to smooth out the back of this phone.

If you ran a saas, you'd know how much more supporting SSO costs and sing a different tune.

I think you missed the point. The costs isn't insomuch R&D, it's in support. Users struggle with SSO and so we get tickets; techs answering tickets costs money.

There's a great car restoration business near us. The sole proprietor is in his late 70s and refuses to take on any apprentice. Says he refuses to train his competition. Sad that all those years of experience and skill will go to wa

Nice. I'd like to see an 'early payoff' tool added that would show how many months/years and $ interest I can save by paying off principle $x/month/one-time.

We moved off the gold standard in 1933 (domestic) and internationally in 1971 and there haven't been any warlike activities since then, right?

Those holding gold and silver may be insulated. Historically, it's a great hedge against hyperinflation (dedollarization).

Sig Sauer USA is in serious trouble here. Guns shouldn't be going off without the trigger being pulled, period. They've probably got 90 days to do a recall with a real fix or US soldiers will be carrying Glocks.
