Oh, it’s impossible to do legally. Which doesn’t stop NYC having many, many guns being concealed carry. Because of you are looking to commit violent crimes, what’s another felony vs. having the power of life and death over victims? And if y

But what is the purpose of an MRAP (for one example)? In the incredibly rare event you have an active terrorist attack and can move the MRAP to it before it's over, it may provide the benefit of movable cover. The rest of the time you

Apple has no incentive to build faster than ThreadRipper CPUs. That’s a tiny, tiny market. It’s more likely they offer TR like performance at much lower watts, temperature and cost, like they’ve done to AMDa best mobile CPUs.

You don't need different tax rates, just indexing. Lets have a single fair set of rates with progressivity. A rich man in the 35% tax bracket should pay 35% on their capital gains, just as a poor retiree in the 15% tax bracket should o
