A law was passed two years ago to allow certain types of OTC hearing aids. From the FDA’s website…

To increase the public’s access to hearing aids and improve hearing, the FDA established a new category of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids for adults 18 years of age and older with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss that went into effect on October 17, 2022.

That’s a completely different cloth. You can’t use the iPhone polishing cloth on the AVP and vice versa.

Ron Paul must be crushed. How will his campaign recover from this devastating blow?

What I would not like is for a parent to pay for the upgraded seat next to me and then I get bumped to accommodate their child.

Since I’m considered less invested in the community if I don’t have children, I shouldn’t have to pay property taxes, since that money is used to fund public schools. And whatever federal portion of the budget that goes toward public education should be given back to me as well.

Also, does a parent’s extra vote go away when the children reach voting age?

Edit: The more I think about this, the more I like it. I think you’re on the right track, but we need to take this further. You have a greater stake, therefore you should have a larger tax burden as well. You and your family will use more resources than a single person. Roads wear out faster from more driving and increased weight of vehicle. Larger families require larger police and fire departments. Etc., etc. Good idea.

No. It’s not possible to find light reading about lead.

Doubt any heads will roll. I bet this feature was approved by the C-suite and board of directors. Look, we can create two revenue streams with one simple offer—get car buyers to subscribe to On Star so we can collect data, and then sell the data. All legal because nobody reads the fine print in the contract.

It was just my crass humor. I used the noun version of the word “use” because you said you couldn’t figure out how to use it.

What’s the use of giving you the answer when you can look it up on the internet?

For the money. From 1986 to 2003, there were 9 stock splits and MS handed out stock options to almost all employees. Many employees who started there in the early 90s are now multimillionaires.
