I used to think the same thing, until recently. Where I live (NC, USA) there was a big issue where commercial property owners have been able to reduce their property tax assessments, not on the basis of 'comparable…
I tried! No country would let me in without a job, and no company in Europe would even interview me from America.
I once had a startup fire me after only 6 weeks, for performance reasons, which were purely a fabrication. I'm not sure if that counts. It was not a good experience for me, but I did not feel like it had any long term…
ASCE has a dog in this hunt
Esri's core products are a buggy mess, so it is impossible for me to get excited about anything shiny and new.
As someone who has lived in majority-black towns in the south most of my life, those words are simply not used in the way you are using them. Blacks in the south are universally considered a minority, even in those…
My great uncle was part of this; or so he claimed. He told me stories about training in California with the OSS for underwater demolition.
What is a usian?
For starters, in the U.S. system, interest rates on government debt are set by central bank policy. Investors cannot force it up or down. In general, I'm not sure the guy they are quoting is a reliable source of…
I think you're conflating 'international recognition' with 'independence.' Taiwan is functionally independent, currently, no matter what China, or John Cena or the Government of Djibouti says. In fact there is no need…
Considering that Taiwan is already independent and would need to be persuaded to join the PRC, these kinds of threats seem counterproductive to China's goals of "peaceful reunification".
A) This headline is flat wrong. Productivity is not at its lowest level in 40 years. B) What they probably meant to say instead is that the US saw the largest monthly decline in productivity in 40 years. There is a very…
the reason your figures aren't comparable is because the U.S. figures being used : a. Are not incomes for just a single-wage earner, they include the combined income for a household (of 2.53 people on average) b. Are…
Blackrock and Vanguard are just intermediaries, they do not actually own the shares in their ETFs, they manage the assets on behalf of clients.
Yes, you're reading this wrong. Referring to tax obligations as "Slavery" is disconnected from reality, and pretty insulting to all the Americans for whom real, actual American slavery is still impactful.
The goal of the legislation is to shift the tax burden towards high net worth individuals, and away from wage-earners. Raising cap gains rates and/or increasing top marginal income tax rates are not very effective ways…
Modern societies are not capital constrained, so capital formation is superfluous. The world is awash in excess capital among the rich, so providing government subsidies to facilitate further capital formation among the…
Taxing incomes and not wealth is fundamentally unfair to people without wealth.
"Revenue neutral" just means a bill will not increase government revenues. edit : You can downvote me all you want, it isn't going to change the definition of the term. https://definitions.uslegal.com/r/revenue-neutral/

I bought from carvana 2 years ago because they had: A. Lower interest rates than the local credit union or the banks, and B. Better prices on the vehicle I wanted than anyone else in the area.
Eliminate minimum requirements on parking and restrictions on height. Make demolitions easier. Eliminate the neighbors ability to stop any project that they don't like. Reduce the number of permits required, reduce the…
I'm confused why you think Americans are relevant to this story. The word "cock" and it's status as an English language vulgarity is a product of England. It predates the U.S. by centuries.
In what way is it deviant?
Esri's JavaScript API 3 has poor performance, but I've been very happy with version 4.
