No I think money laundering is when you knowingly mix proceeds of crime, obscuring it. Like if I make drug dealing illegal, then require drug dealer to pay taxes. And then take the tax money, and conceal and intermix it into the form of th

Religion is largely a belief in a way of living life. Democracy happens to be the most powerful religion at the moment, heretics can be imprisoned for life such as William Pickard was for manufacturing LSD and sinning against the belief of

Not really, again under independence from external government control the monks quickly organized a brutal fuedal system holding most the non-monks in serfdom, I don't know why their brutality would change post cold war. And again I&#x

Not sure why monks or buddhists would be expected to behave differently than any other humans. Even Tibet under independence operated a brutal theocratic feudalist system.

By various estimates half+ of truckers leave within their first year, so your thesis is what, that they are voluntarily switching for the worse? Given the massive number of new drivers and that half+ of them are voluntarily switching to new

Yes you have to put two and two together. If the attrition of newcomers is high enough, and oldtimers fill newcomer positions (or just their wages) in rough times, then if the high attrition of newcomers is high enough to overcome the phase

We know from most other industries that when a downturn comes, those with the most experience shift into the entry level jobs/pay and the newcomers get gutted.

This sounds right, but I'd be interested in hearing from a trucker. Most of them get paid $0.X per mile, I imagine the interstate miles are the easy money and the last mile through Manhattan is the hell money.

CDL drivers have insanely high attrition. Probably higher attrition than the phase in of driverless vehicles.

That's exactly what I did when I built my house. $6k in labor for some part of the project vs $300 tools from harbor freight, who gives a fuck if the tool only lasts a few hours, I don't have time to sell it nor place to store it.

Because it is cheaper to buy a new one than pay someone to fix most of those. A fairly significant minority of wealthy people got that way because they have no free time to do those things themselves.

Yes chained ("detained") in a jail cell, but not arrested, so no right to lawyer.

Sure, I was locked up by DHS/immigration, and I am a US citizen. CBP/ICE/HSI doesn't really need much of anything to lock you up, when they did it to me they told me I wasn't even under arrest.

But the 4th amendment doesn't appear to provide 'the people' protection to non-immigrants. A US citizen cannot be compelled to produce their citizenship with out a warrant, whereas a non-immigrant can be compelled to produce

>he meaning of "the people" is interpreted differently from Amendment to Amendment. In the 1st and 5th Amendments, I went to the one where they didn't teach 'the people' was written anywhere in the 5th amendment.

Ratting out in my mind means informing authorities in a way that something negative might be expected to happen to the subject. For instance, I don't think smoking weed is wrong, but if I go tell an officer you have weed in your car, I

Constitution is the supreme law. The constitution does not make an amendment by amendment distinction what 'the people' is.

I'm not sure anyone can take seriously the proposition that 'the people' is Jekyll and Hyded amendment by amendment, especially when the constitution is completely devoid of any suggestion it is interpreted as such.

You can read here, but in short 'the people' are those who are members of the 'political community' according to certain criteria. Generally this doesn't include non-immigrants. https://storage.courtlist

In regards to protest though, the activity they are interested in, that is a right of 'the people to peaceably assemble' per 1A. Non-immigrants are not 'the people' per current interpretation of the constitution. If the

The actual letter explains they can regain status by ratting out their students. It will quietly be done, although likely in a way that make it look as if Harvard hasn't.

Most the universities will do the thing asked in order to re-instate their student visa certification. i.e. provide intel needed to deport any students that they believe have opinions that are not in the interest of national security. Most

It's likely foreign heads of state can obtain a different visa for their children, if they are even on student visas to begin with. They will be accommodated.

A lot of truth to that. Although I graduated well after the dot com days, at that time you usually had to be near the top just to get an internship. You could probably let academics slip a bit after that.
