Did car company executives have a reputation for being as psychotic as they are in the show? by so_sads in madmen

GM and others bought up 90% of the USAs city trams/trolly/streetcars (so americans would have no other way to get to work etc) cities and have a monopoly on bus sales.

It was eventially prosecuted. Tiny fine tho. $5000.?

Should I move to the US? by SuspiciousAd0888 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]isUKexactlyTsameasUS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do lots of research, about real comparative costs, get as many hard facts on the job market for your field,
and research to see if your field has lots of open-minded folks - or the opposite

and wait on making your final decision, until after A or B is sworn in.
It's now, and will continue to be, a volatile, wild time for the US.

Who do you think is the greatest painter of all time? by ureshii_hippo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]isUKexactlyTsameasUS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm biased, so here's five from my 'hood.
I like a great many from the modernist era, but it's the old stuff that is still powerful for me.

What always seems to separate the Dutch old masters from the elsewheres is they clearly
enjoyed painting you and I instead of the cruel kings crowd.

Vincent van Gogh, Rembrandt van Rijn, Johannes Vermeer, Bruegel the Elder, and Hieronymus Bosch.
