REITs are traded on the market, (pretty much) just like a stock. So you don't have to worry about liquidity being too much of a problem. One example of a REIT is [1]. However, if you really just want to park money for…
There's a lot of space between the conflict of interest that arises when you lobby congress for a change that would help the company you are the CEO of while your father is a senator and not working.
Examples of some obvious things that really shouldn't be too controversial: Showing pictures of a massacre Showing pictures or video from a war Reading a graphic account of a soldier from war Showing pictures of mass…
Set up a distribution center on I90 30 miles outside Chicago (e.g. Gary Indiana) set up a distribution center on I80 30 miles outside New York (e.g. Paterson NJ). Use human drivers for the last 30 miles, and automation…
More good examples of variance in the artistic style and implied meaning are the various non-people emojis. In general, google has "cuter", "friendlier", and more anthropomorphized versions.…

I think the video and website are pretty obviously parody. But, if you are having a hard time discerning it as parody, don't you think that's the NRA's fault?
Poverty in parents is highly predictive of poverty in children. Single motherhood is also correlated with poverty. It's possible that single motherhood increases the chance that a child will also live in poverty as an…

If only home ownership weren't correlated with generational wealth. Then we'd have a meritocracy, and you could dismiss people renting as bad decision makers. In the real world, people rent because they can't afford to…

Except that consumption based taxes encourage wealth hoarding, and are extremely regressive for families that spend most or all of their income. A better format would be a "average middle class household cost of living"…
If any part of the site is meant to assassinate my character, I could sue you for defamation in the necessary jurisdiction. Alternatively, I could work to improve the SEO scores of my personal and professional pages,…
I'll copy-paste my reply to every comment you make, since you seem to really like making this non argument. Gawker could chose to relocate it's business outside the US, but as long as they are a US corporation, they are…

While I understand what you are getting at here, basically, this is still just a complete information game, and didn't solve AI. You are drastically understating the complexity of Go. It isn't actually possible to…
Tram lines are expensive, and require that the city (population, economic, and social centers) remain largely static. If you predict wrong, you can end up spending millions on a tram line that doesn't get used.
Which actually says.... Women aren't paid less because they take jobs for less money, women are paid less because men are promoted more, men dictate the location of families more, and women are encouraged to take on…
So, I'll admit that I don't understand the details of how vanguard is paying employees or the external people that actually manage the money, but presumably, they pay a fixed fee to someone to manage the money, and that…
I'm not sure if this is a valid comparison, but imagine that a group of doctors got together and founded a hospital, and decided that they would run the hospital as a co-op, where employees would buy into the co-op…
Lets, be honest, it's not like academics is the only place this happens. CS labs are essentially small companies (1 CEO, 2-3 senior members, and 5-10 junior members). The only difference is that the company produces…
If you live in a suburb you have far bigger problems. It's no way to live. (see, I can say the same low quality thing you did and replace city with suburb) Living in a large city has many huge benefits. Density of…
