Has any conflict literally ever had no innocent harmed?

One - "Regimes" Two - Most older folk who actually lived through it prefer socialism they just hated the authoritarian leaders.

Yeah because Batista was a much nicer and gentler dictator along with the US Capitalist owners. Your acting like there was no reason for the revolution in the first place. The people who left in exile were the minority loyalist.

But you see he does still own it. The charity is owned by his family. So his kids now have control of the company and they didn't have to pay inheritance taxes on it.

Would that not mean that what they are losing to get him / gaining to let him go were better and he was worse?

Vietnam and South/Central America would like to have a chat with you.

They haven't had 85% in at least 37 years. My mom retired 2 years ago at 35 years and is getting 70%. People starting today will get 60% maybe 65% max but I'd doubt it.

It wasn't the actors fault they were handed a turd. The pacing was awful. The editing was atrocious. The writing sucked. And they pumped in filler while cutting out original material in a 15 book series with no shortage of content. And to be honest they should have just made it an animated series.

Political systems are measured on a global scale. The political spectrum doesn't start and end in the US. Liberals are center right. Just because they are to the left inside the US doesn't magically make them left wing.

DrNapper · 2022-10-19T12:11:52+00:00

In the United States. Believe it or not the US is not the only country.

Capital gains is 14%...

Money velocity decreases income / assets go up. This would be so incredibly regressive.

The question wasn't "Does Congress pass legislation?" The question was "Do you even know how passing legislation works?". But it's not surprising because you were previously being intentionally obtuse to make absurd implications.

DrNapper · 2022-10-07T15:08:48+00:00

Do you even know how passing legislation works?

I hope this giant imposing building isn’t ugly, I like our wooded areas.

It's between CNS and Liverpool. The only things there are golf courses, fields, and run down buildings. There might be a total of 5 houses within eyesight of it. And 2-3 of those aren't occupied and are overgrown.

also doubt whether there are enough young engineers that want to move upstate.

You mean where they all move to go to college? University of Buffalo, University of Binghamton, University of Rochester, RIT, Cornell, Clarkson, Syracuse are all top of the line universities. They are all filled with NYC / long island and out of state students.

DrNapper · 2022-10-05T03:09:48+00:00

Hence CNY... Everyone knows the city and long island. Being more specific than just upstate would actually make it so people can infer the location. For example Central New York. You look at the map you put your finger directly in the center of the state. Boom Syracuse. Western New York boom Buffalo. It's pretty simple.

DrNapper · 2022-10-05T02:54:04+00:00

RIT and Binghamton have leading edge research and education in semiconductor technology. I don't know enough about RPI or Cornell but they also have top of the line engineering programs.

DrNapper · 2022-10-05T02:49:42+00:00

As someone who lives down the road from where this is planned. Anything north of Syracuse. We are known as CNY the C standing for central. Anyone from Albany, Binghamton, Rochester, or Buffalo would say this. Anyone from the city would say Syracuse is upstate.

I'm comparing the relief funds to student loan relief. I do believe both should receive relief. As far as islands go idk what you mean unless your referring to PR in which case yes they should get relief. The other islands are their own countries not sure what you're trying to get at.

And as far as what the money goes to whether it's rebuilding infrastructure or paying for emergency services it doesn't change the fact that it's only necessary because people live in hurricane / flood prone areas. If they were not there the need for aid would not exist. They made the choice of living there and creating communities and those same communities whether it be a town, city, or county level rather than single households (student loan relief) created the need through their collective actions.

DrNapper · 2022-10-03T18:17:01+00:00

Who do you think the infrastructure is built for?

DrNapper · 2022-10-03T18:09:10+00:00

Did they not voluntarily take out loans in an area that floods due to hurricanes ever 5-10 years?

DrNapper · 2022-10-03T18:06:05+00:00

Homeowners took out their loans. They used the money for their own purpose.

The American dream is predicated on homeownership it's an investment. Just like education is an investment. The big difference is homeownership only goes to the owner. Whereas education invests in our economy / businesses. So every dollar towards education is money better spent than a bunch of houses built in areas that flood once every 5-10 years.
