I don't think it's useful to add conditions to UBI - if you want to spend your UBI on a car and I don't agree with that, it's tough luck for me. You do raise a valid point, which is that a car is a luxury. Having lots of

Not evidence. Just anecdotal. Half my extended family lives in rural areas. Cities arent perfect. I'm absolutely stressed over the hectic pace of a large city. But I'm not depressed and hopeless like those I know in rural areas. M

No, I'm suggesting simply "not made in America". The more I think about this, the more I'm convinced it's bad reporting, or misquoting. As a Canadian that exports, I've been to presentations out on by CBP and c

The issue here is that goods produced or imported into a FTZ should not qualify as American made or origin. The foreign company should not be able to claim a tax exemption on re-importing to the u.s. The simple solution is to have the manuf

The most offensive of all this to me, is the loading of your Google account contacts into your phone. My phone is for a small subset of friends and family, not every person I ever emailed.

This tribal mentality of "US"(A) vs. them is outdated. We live in a global world where while laws haven't caught up, you can use your head and judge whether something is right or wrong. It's clear when someone - anyone -

There's a big difference between "eating when you want" and having an active lifestyle that restricts eating naturally, versus binging TV on the couch with junk food 10 feed away. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/

I feel for you. I really do. I've been through this repeatedly. And it's a UI problem that's your job to fix, not the customer's fault. Here are some things you can do: - repeat the backordered message on every page: hom

I ran a pop up shop and totally understand not wanting to deal with cash. It adds overhead (counting, bank runs, accounting entries) and puts you at higher risk for robbery. But I also use cash for most of my daily purchases, because I don&

This. Investing is not a guaranteed return system. You might win, or you might lose all your money. At the end of the day, the only person who is responsible for it is you. Don't want to lose your money? Don't invest.

Speaking of UX mistakes: don't assault me with an email subscription form on page load when I haven't read a single letter of your content. Earn my trust before asking me to get into bed with you.

If you understand the trade-offs and want to get involved, by all means. I'd be careful about thinking you understand trade-offs though. I'm sure you're not an idiot, but I'm more sure that you can't possibly unders

Re: proper compensation - this is a good question, and I don't have the answer to it. Headhunters might. Re: the rest - these are straw man arguments. I never made those claims. My only point was that the OP shouldn't feel bad abo

And generally, unless you understand the business deeply and are actively aware of the trade-offs of your vote, you shouldn't be voting. We can all yell "pay parity" and "tie CEO compensation to worker compensation"

The EU cookies consent law is a prime example of how worthless this is. Easily 99% of sites either don't display this warning, or display it with no "decline" option. I can think of 2 instances over the past year where I'

I sell products online in Canada, and 90% of our credit card fraud comes from Montreal. It's an absolute cesspool of activity like this. It's a huge center of money acitivity in Canada, and they're only getting more aggressiv
