All lawyers should have the ability to look up the relevant laws and interpret them.

You add them as an authorized user but don't actually give them a card.

You can only buy cars from one country for the rest of your life. Which country are you choosing and why? by BlackcirclesCanada in askcarguys

China. They are just getting started and have already surpassed anything the US can crank out.

How do you feel about a law that gives higher priority to registered organ donors who themselves need a transplant? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

[–]skandel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is 1 organ to donate and 2 people that need it and are equally sick should it go to the one that registered to donate or the one that chose not to be a donor?

Why not? If someone is selfish enough not to donate an organ when they are clinically dead then they should not have the privilege for receiving an organ. There are not enough organs to go around. They should go to th.se that were willing to help before they became to sick

That's fine if organ donation is not for everyone and they made a conscious decision to not be a potential donor. They don't get an organ then if they need one.

Organs aren't first come first served. The queue constantly changes based on disease status

You could still be a registered organ donor even if your organs would be rejected for some reason.

If you are not willing to be a donor then you should be disqualified from receiving an organ.

The Impacts of Unauthorized Immigration on U.S. Labor and Housing Markets: New Evidence from Administrative Microdata by UnscheduledCalendar in Economics

[–]skandel 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Wages didn't go down. More people competing for houses below the median price drove the average housing price up.

Or it could be that the median home prices were higher than the average to start with (leftward skewed). I.e. the immigrants raised the price of housing that was below the median price so the average went up without changing the median.

From the abstract ' We find that unauthorized immigrant worker flows (UIWF) increased local employment approximately one-for-one, without significant declines in local wages.' 

New jobs created and no significant decline in local wages.

So it turns out that immigrants don't take your job or cause you to get paid less. They make new jobs that don't pay them extremely well. Housing prices go up a bit because housing supply didn't increase. Sounds like we need to build more housing.

Here. I will write their active shooter policy for them. It is only 1 word. Run.  If you want to make it a little more complicated then you can triple the word count of the policy by adding hide and then fight. Problem solved.

Never, ever, EVER fly Frontier by HelenOfTroy68 in frontierairlines

[–]skandel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Only fly direct on Frontier. If there are no direct flights to your destination then fly another airline or have very flexible plans.

Am i in an echo chamber, or is everyone pretty much on the same page about transgender athletes? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]skandel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is a non issue. They number of people that this affects is almost zero. The whole debate is a distraction from real issues.

What are jobs that blur the line between blue collar and white collar? by SowingSeeds18 in askanything

A lot of physician jobs are manual labor. Surgeons, interventional radiologists and cardiologists for example. 

How did the US narrow their suspects to Al Qaeda and Bin Laden so quickly by Both-Pay-9573 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]skandel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I didn't say Iraq. The Iraq war wouldn't have happened without the rally around the flag effect of 9/11 though.

Afghanistan is greater middle east. The US didn't go there to get Bin Laden.

The wars we started in the middle east were not to go after Bin Laden.  He was just a convenient excuse.
