They have thin margine but very high turnover. It’s not a business plan based on holding stock. The shelf space turns over multiple times per week. They may pay suppliers 30 days after selling to a consumer.

If the jury had any faith in the legal system, they would have found him guilty and he should be sentenced to 30 seconds.

However, they clearly didn’t. The fact that this came this far is ridiculous. The police officer lying was a much larger crime.

Wealthy people will be less affected. They will get a different flight and just charge it. Poorer people will need to wait for a refund or insurance to pay to get an alternative.

I would also expect that the workers in states with less social benefits are more likely to have the staff not show up as they have to earn money elsewhere.

From what I’ve seen, it looks like it’s staggered based on metrics to be delivered to trigger it. I hope they approve it, which causes the share price to crash and then he destroys his wealth in the greedyprocess and doesn’t get any of it.

Yes, but all the while they are facing more controlled resistance. The more resistance builds, the less they can try to pull off. Eventually there is a crack in either direction. They have a timeline they need to keep or they won’t enact their plan on time.

To be fair, for many, they recognise there is a problem with crime and they think the death penalty acts as a deterrent. All the evidence disagrees, but that’s not the point.

As you say though, do many cruelty is the point, of even as a vengeance piece.

People follow it by agreement and the idea is they face sanctions if they don’t. It’s unlikely America will face direct sanctions. However they are unlikely to find many friendly partners moving forward. The more heinous acts, the less other countries can overlook it.

It’s not just USA. The more countries that skirt international law, the more others also do the same and the less others listen to America. Putin doesn’t care about international law when invading Ukraine. Then china stops caring about consequences for invading Taiwan etc.

It’s stuff like this that makes the international community more afraid of Trump. The grifting and grafting is an internal problem. The fascism is a humanity problem. The breakdown in rule of law is a global problem.

He’s said similar before with his salary, while going on to take bribes and use the government to pay for services at his businesses.

Being fair does not mean swallowing lies if intentions from a known liar. Sure, if receipts are forthcoming, we change. They won’t come.

Greed mixed with a lack of empathy.

First exposure, even if anaphylactic is not as bad or life threatening. Second and subsequent exposures are rapid and pronounced.

So, if they are super high risk, then that is a good idea, but it’s not as important as avoiding nuts for someone with a previous exposure that caused a reaction.

It could also be partly to help keep him in power, as Argentina collapsing, again, under libertarianism makes their attempts at libertarianism harder to justify. They’d still lie about it, so I agree there is an ulterior motive, that personally benefits Trump or his cronies.

Military follow orders, if legal. Otherwise it doesn’t work.

20% overtime pay for the first 10 hours a week is ridiculously low. Time and a half is pretty standard. Even at over 10 hour shifts, it’s not getting to time and a half.

If they doubled the percentages, I’d think it’s fair. However, overtime should always be optional. There is a good argument for both sides to be reasonable, but requiring repeated overtime isn’t overtime, any more, that’s normal shifts.

Yep. If consumers are only bearing some of the costs now, then inflation will continue.

That and shorting, stocks, bitcoin, currencies.

I hope it was a case of malicious compliance. Showing that it’s not available rather than hiding it.

Not unhangable.

Yes, bank of mum and dad has become a bigger part of the economy over time.

Manufacturing can happen anywhere. That’s not where the money is. The money is in parents and research.

The only reason you want the factories in shore is of you’re worried about trade routes staying open. I don’t think Trump is thinking that far ahead.

His lack of understanding is a worry or his planning for increased conflict is worrying.

Even having a middle man won’t help. The postal services are not engaging until there is a system in places and clarity.

Sure, mass shipping can work, but is cost prohibitive for all niche products, like you’ve mentioned unless they have a giant distribution deal.

They don’t want to get the ultimate bill for the duties owed. They don’t usually keep customer information, so it needs to be collected up front or not at all.
