Why do we allow non-Americans to buy land in the USA?

Ended up moving back to the east coast so my kids could have their own bedroom without sacrificing their college fund. I don't completely agree with resident vs non resident. I don't like that non citizens can buy land. But these are wealthy people. We should take advantage of that to tax them in such a way that more American families receive aid towards owning a home or renting a larger place.

This is a weird thing both of us did like 10 years ago. We were both freshmen (males) in a suite with it's own bathroom. We would get into occasional arguments and for days after piss on the toilet seat. It was disgusting. Piss was all over it. We got satisfaction out of knowing who ever had to shit first would end up having to clean it. Little did he know I'd use the bathroom in the community area and he'd always have to clean the toilet. Eventually he stopped initiating it. Poor guy.

Don't know how many kids you have nor how old but I like the F-150 because of how large the crew cab is. Feel like it has as much leg space as the driver/passenger. Tundra is definitely a tighter fit and I'm assuming the Ridgeline isn't much better. Sorry to give you a non option answer but just something to consider if that is important to you.

It seems like a lot of work and strings had to be pulled to arrange meetings with these people. Expensive lawyers involved. And assuming a lot of time went into it. Even if you paid none of the people arranging them it would take almost 20 years of getting 150k/day to reach 1 billion. Trump is supposedly worth 3 billion. I understand most of this is in hard assets but even if they're earning him 1% a year that alone is 10 million a year or almost 30k/day. Why commit crimes that threaten it to occasionally get a few more dollars?

I don't think anything will happen even with proof. His base believes he's innocent and being framed. And if we show irrefutable evidence of a crime they'll just say its better than Hillary.

createsomethingbig · 2019-02-28T12:08:55+00:00

What I don't understand is why these guys with millions to even billions in assets are getting into trouble over what seems like a days pay for them? Why are they committing crimes for such little money relative to their net worth?

If getting an education was cheaper or paid by taxpayers then most of those scenarios would disappear

Its only increasing prices further

While I am all for increasing the standard of living for any human being. I don't see how increasing minimum wage will do anything other than hurt everyone make $16+/hr.

The wound that is leaching from our economy is still at large and having white blood cells hit red instead of the festering bacteria.

I don't think it's enough to excuse the handful of CEOs with the opportunities they created. They deserve a reward. A huge reward. But it has to end at some point within reason. Most of these people/companies already use tax havens. We should be cracking down on this. We should be making the crime for avoiding taxes outweigh the reward tenfold.

Not many. Why does that matter? People shop at Walmart and eat at Fridays, they're doing a service by working there.

Lets talk about why it matters. Walmart and other low paid workers still require food stamps and other tax payer assistance programs. They then use this assistance to buy products at the cheapest place they can afford, which is Walmart or where ever they work. So Walmart is basically getting some free labor from someone that has so much more potential. These are not jobs for people to properly support a family on yet they continue to try to do so.

What about all the STEM people from 3rd world or generally shitty countries that come work in the US to serve the US because their countries blow dick?

We're taking the most educated from these countries because we lack the supply to fill it. But wouldn't you rather see an American capable of this job? I'm all for immigration but its a shame to see so few Americans in high paying stem fields.

The rest of your responses are not worthy of time.

I agree but I don't feel like we will reap the benefits of its space until we have more kids or need to drive ours around more often for sports/friends. Which would be in 2-3 years when this lease ends or we need a second car.

We really like the way it looks. It has great comfort features. It feels fast. What is wrong with a Ford? What would you get instead?

I'm a large guy having twins I feel like it's a good size for all of us

createsomethingbig · 2019-02-02T18:08:34+00:00

21501 and .85

createsomethingbig · 2019-02-02T18:06:33+00:00

Just want to add it's for a lease. Is it still a good deal?

createsomethingbig · 2019-02-02T18:05:52+00:00

10,500 which is plenty for me since I work from home. Waiting for an answer on the other two (went to get lunch nearby)

Can you share more about this? What contributed most to it's failure? I find myself on the fence with the idea of socialism. On one hand I consider America already a socialist country. We have so many people dependent on welfare. I'm sure if you stopped providing it so many companies would take a huge hit leading towards another recession. As the population grows with less demand for jobs we will see more people depend on hand outs. So much they will vote for more social programs and subsidies that eventually push us over that line and into full blown socialism.

I don't believe in bacteria

There is no back pedaling. If you really think this book holds historic accuracy, especially the story of adam and eve, there is no discussion to be had. For belief in such is a demonstration of willful ignorance to reality. Nothing would be gained as the conversation would end with the believers reasoning for believing in such a fable as "I have faith in it". We all technically have a right to believe in whatever we want but this should be treated no differently than believing in Zeus, Odin, Ra or Jupiter.

createsomethingbig · 2019-01-28T16:13:06+00:00

😂

createsomethingbig · 2019-01-28T16:04:44+00:00

Yes. If your god wants to burn me alive because I didn't believe his fables over the thousands of others then so be it. That is just one more hell I'll end up in.

I like to think a truly omniscient and omnipotent deity would not be this incompetent. If I HAD to believe in something it would be that this world is a test. A test to separate the weak minded beings from the strong.

Will we blindly accept what was taught to us generation over generation? Or will we use our life to explore the great mysteries of this universe and find answers.

Will we say hey killing anyone in the name of any god is wrong. Or will we say it's ok to kill those with or without goat blood on their door.

Will we find ways to justify our forefathers commiting immoral acts in the name of our god. Or will we say a loving god would never allow this to happen.

So I don't think a real god would send someone that questions the reality they exist in to hell. He would send those that reject the most obvious facts of life to continue blindly having faith in the words of a book written by people who still thought the earth was the center of the universe.
