  • Nah bruh you are misunderstanding. Politicians and other rich and powerful use property as an investment. This means they buy up all the properties, rent it out, and as prices go up so does its value. They then sell it for double the price in 10 years.

    It’s life ruining because it affects the politicians, the rich and the powerful. There are also some very few who use it to get ahead, and they likely will be the “example” case so that people don’t think about the 10 properties Mr politicians estate owns, or the 5 commercial real estate they have in some mixed fund. And the potential millions they can make by ensuring certain policies are kept.



  • The scary thing about this is not that he did it. But that this is where we are at. I believe (I’m not from the us and don’t follow politics so could be wrong). That Biden believed in the system and thought others did too.

    But with Trump coming in, he now believes the system is broken. What he believed in is broken. And as such he’s getting what’s his, for himself. And now democrat or Republican they both will stomp on the US system to get what they want.

    And I have no doubt that the US people are really going to learn what that truly means. When you throwaway the guard rails that you used to believe in. I hope you watch closely.



  • I have an apostrophe and it’s super annoying as some companies see it as a SQL injection hack and sanitize it.

    So I’ve received ID with Mc%20dole or they add a space in it. Or I’ll get a work email with an apostrophe but I cant use it anywhere because sites have it disabled. And I’ve missed my flight because I changed my ticket once to add the apostrophe and the system just broke at the gate.

    Worse yet many flight companies have “you will not be able to board if your ID doesn’t exactly reflect your details” but their form doesn’t allow it. Even most forms for card payments don’t allow it even though it’s the name on my card.



  • Is she deemed as a contractor? Does the company file her taxes? Being paid or not paid based on outcome is usually somwthing i see on contracts which companies force people to become to skirt labour laws and make payment based on ourcome instead of hours.

    This changes the answer for you, because the reason they do this is it puts the onus on you to make everyrhibg perfect becayse they are paying for a piece of work.

    There are indeed laws that punish companies that do this however but is based on location and all that (fwiw im not a lawyer)
