If they start a label, the smaller labels will be the first one to feel the heat. Spotify would need to swallow them all to garner power so it can fight the bigger fish. If Spotify start a label and is successful with it, the Music industry

Didn't he sue Top Gear and lost over a bit Jeremy Clarkson did? EDIT: Yes he did and lost[0]. Jeremy Clarkson did another bit in The Grand Tour about the new Tesla and it was quite British[1]. [0] http://www.thedrive.com/

Definitely, this said I won't call basic income charity. The difference is that charity is not a right but BI is. The same way when big corporations receive millions and millions of dollars in government subsidies they don't "

If we go by anecdotes, I knew only two persons who switched careers at mid life successfully: one was a woman and the other a man and both had a spouse who brought decent money to the household and was supportive.

In most societies being poor is shameful, asking for help is twice as shameful. Even if someone that is poor and read your comment will most likely post an answer. When poor people get things for "free" (like charity, I hate chari

The problem I have with the App Store or Play Store or any of their ilk is that they are taking over the public space and making it a private space. Imagine a city where public parks are all bought out by private entities, that is the Inter
