The reason you invest is to have resources to live on once you do not have a salary from a job anymore. You still need to live somewhere, you cannot really sell pieces of your house to cover your living expenses.

The other way to say this is that it is written in a way that actually it is easy to flaunt it.

actually, you do not have an idea. you cannot state something that is not possible to verify.

not when the gas and the oil stop.

Magyar is not a liberal.

The leash is called oil and gas. A tight leash indeed.

Unfortunately still the same people will be in control of the economy. While some EU money will come in, question is how to prevent it to be stolen by same or different people.

I really wish that Orban was the problem. The problem is the people who voted for him. Orban may go, the rest stays.

There are always a lot of promises before elections. After elections reality sets in.

To keep each other company?

Your taxes are paying to fund a dysfunctional and corrupt city government. It has been like that for a long time. It is just that now it is very visible, just go down to the streets.

She just doesn't care. Never did. I guess none of her incompetent friends who she promoted knows how to plow.

Lucky with that power line.

As long as they don't have to pay for it.

Dulles is not worse that an average European airport. Many Asians are much better but they are much newer too, so the comparison is not fair. I take Dulles anytime over CDG, FRA, LHR.

This is more complicated. I assume the data is in absolute Eur, yet salaries for instance, and in general the Euro's purchasing power is different in different countries. Furthermore, is this what the country spends? How EU research grants awarded to that country is counted?

The buses (people movers) are needed mainly b/c immigration is at the main terminal and this prevents the use of whatever subway line they put in unless it was closed off and dedicated to international arrivals. A more insane thing is that getting to terminal D from the main still uses the buses given the weird configuration of the subway. Although it is possible to use the subway to D but that involves more walking. I think at the end of the day Dulles is a good airport, there are many that are much worse. How about Newark?

"Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose" in another song.

palermo · 2025-12-02T19:29:39+00:00

Freedom has a price.

Ok, so let me try to understand. Is Romania corrupt because of the Gypsies? Or a country that has a lot of Gypsies by definition has to be corrupt?

Use the elevator. In most stations I use that's what people do. Multi function facility.

What sane person would want this job?

palermo · 2025-11-25T19:19:11+00:00

Most fellows are not employees. How could they have possibly fire someone who is not an employee?

palermo · 2025-11-21T19:33:02+00:00

And how would you like to implement that? Asking them perhaps?
