That doesn’t change the original argument that we allow gun ownership because we want corporations to make money.

And I have, and yes it’s completely possible during a time of war. In all other cases you have at least 2 years in jail. Followed by an inability to get a decent job following a discharge under less than honorable conditions. That’s your se

But what isn’t a viable business today can be built into one in the future. Example, every restaurant ever opened still operating today. How do you reconcile this?

Seems like you can read this 2 ways, the additional way being allowing workplace relationships that have a touching component to it. Regardless of how appropriate that is at work.

You haven’t really answered why, you just keep saying you don’t agree. How do you create a startup and avoid hiring union workers that will drag your business to the ground?

You said a whole lot of nothing here. Tell me how those willing to die are somehow the same as someone not and it’s somehow psychological? This seems like a psychological issue with some demanding they have given just as much, and are just

I didn’t say a civilian wearing an army shirt is stolen valor, however pretending to haven been in the military while never having been is. Wearing a band shirt and an army shirt are not comparable at all. The default thought when someone s

If you spend any, and I mean any, amount of time researching tipping you’ll find the market research. It’s proof you’ve done no research yourself just spouting personal beliefs as if everybody feels the same (this day and age of all). Here

So what happens when nobody chooses that life? Will those contributing economically experience the safety they need to do their business? Additionally how many business owners are willing to die for their business?

Your comment is rather offensive. Stolen valor is a crime. Wearing a band t-shirt while not listening to the band is not. Military members risk their lives for others. People that do this get respect, be it a Dr, Military, Police, etc.

And yet you dismiss what I said and gave an option as to why it’s acceptable. If you believe that a majority of food workers are underpaid, then I, as well as market research, disagree with you.

I wasn’t aware T-mobile had a bank. You’re absolutely right about savings accounts, it took me a while to explain to my wife how you lose money using the traditional ones.

It’s very hard to get denied a checking account, even with walking away from multiple accounts with negative balances. I’d bet they didn’t try hard enough or this is a lie.

Ally is a special case and you’ll find most other virtual banks don’t match their rates. They’re fighting for customers.

In the US there are basically 2 forms of ID cards currently, one says “Federal Limits Apply”, the other does not. The one that says “Federal Limits Apply” requires a backup identity document to verify in some cases like buying a gun, or fly

Field tags on the struct means you’re using reflection, which is going to be slow. Additionally you shouldn’t allow the reload of a config by swapping a file on the filesystem as if someone can swap that file they can reconfigure your serve

First step, remove new / inexperienced workers ability to get experience. Next step, replace all of us. Makes sense, “progress” after all.

I’ve actually been to Japan, I’m not sure how their service is substantially better than the US. the restaurants I went to you order from a kiosk and get the food yourself. There really is no service to tip for. One restaurant I went to was

Adding more houses to the market certainly will decrease pricing pressure. Nobody said banning Airbnb was suddenly going to make housing affordable but decrease prices. And my question remains, which is more valuable to society, short term

Not in my experience. The network carrying the transaction may still be mastercard or visa in most cases and a chargeback is just debiting the merchants account for the amount.

So then how do you make people care enough to do a good job if there is no monetary incentive? Should the employer cover this? That’ll will still end with the same, increased prices. Also this has been tried before, and was widely considere

These are Airbnb units we’re talking about, they’re unlikely to need many of those services (like schools). My goal is to reduce the amount of properties one can own without paying more than they’re worth. It should be prohibitively expensi

Ok, then more accurately it’s moving liquidity. The next question is which is more valuable to society?

Without home ownership you are throwing away a large portion of the money you may make in your life. Even if you move frequently it still makes sense to buy so long as you’re not hitting the tip of the market.

Housing prices are more complex than that, but it’s inarguable that more houses on the market means cheaper prices. Out of curiosity, do you own properties specifically to rent on short term rental sites?
