How about the third option, both public and private companies are overvalued. And no, they can't both be undervalued, it's not possible, especially in this market.

It's a government agency that used some horrible contract vehicle to contract with a horribly inadequate contractor to build something half-assed. That's why performance is bad and I guarantee won't be notably better on even

Far too many people seem to simply not be capable of internalizing and comprehending that the primary source of the issues mentioned in this piece in addition to climate change are due to unfettered population growth and growth in general.

I still can't quite figure out the ramifications for American App Store users. I used CamScanner, downloaded from the American App Store, which showed up on the list. So what does that mean for me? Anything? Is uninstalling and reinsta

I also find it interesting how there's a seemingly erroneous association of bagels as a Jewish food item even though the earliest depictions of bread with holes in the center appear in Egyptian hieroglyphs as far as I know.

Economic growth could theoretically last, the problem is that the system is no where near properly structured to not cause deliberate bubbles and bust. It is odd that only very few people understand what the fundamental cause of economic gr

Totally agree. I would just go a bit further and days that beyond just a basic behavioral problem it is a neurological mental disorder that is either hereditarily deposed and/or triggered through behavioral issues.

I think there is significant enough opposition to the notion that the IRS would have such a capability that at the very least it will be the very last agency to get it. I can't see even the Republicans crossing that line.

I am not 100% sure, but I think if you are jamming signals on your own, personal, private property and the jamming does not extend past your boundaries, it might be legal. But that is an edge case that really doesn't apply in the vast
