You missed one. Entry Level jobs seekers (high school kids)

Why risk capital if you're going to be punished by liberal socialists who believe that the rich didn't earn anything. Taxes are regressive. Over Regulation is regressive. Licensing to open a business, is regressive. The whole market is filled with regressive policies that don't do what they were designed to do, while at the same time create new problems that people try to over regulate out of existence. Wash, Rinse Repeat!

I suspect that within 5 years, you'll stop seeing burger flippers because Robots make better, cheaper, quicker burgers. And guess what, your $15/hr min wage jobs are going to disappear, and you'll be fighting for $25/hr Min wage jobs because there aren't any $15/hr ones.

Why don't we just make Min wage $50/hr or $100/hr if it doesn't affect businesses or profits ???

And North Korea is the epitome of Socialism.

The problem with embedding technology in the car, is that it is so quickly outdated. many Cars from five years ago had iPod docks, yet most of the people I know that had iPods don't have them any longer, and the Docks are unused (if they even work).

Bluetooth is the new connector, and I suspect that in a few years, it will be replaced with Greentooth, which isn't backwards compatible.

My point wasn't about Time Value of Money or the opportunity cost. But thanks for reminding that most decisions are more complicated than that.

I pay cash for good running used cars. I've never been disappointed. I've had new cars, and the cost of a new car isn't worth it IMHO. 2 three year old cars are worth more (IMHO) than a new car in a dealership lot. I drive off in a used car, and I can get nearly what I paid for it anytime afterwards. A new car, you're upside down for around 3.5 years, meaning that if you tried to sell it, you couldn't pay off the loan.

Get the "title" from your cabinet. Take a close look at it. It actually says "Certificate of Title" and it does have your name on it. But it isn't the title, as it is issued by the state where registration takes place. The state requires its own certificate of title to register the vehicle in that state.

If you had a title, the state couldn't require you to have its Certificate of Title, and you wouldn't have to register it. A state requires registration for you to drive on the roads. To drive on the roads, you have to surrender the title to the state, be issued a Certificate of Title, and then register your vehicle. They will not allow you to register without surrendering the title. I know, I've tried.

It isn't title, it is the Certificate of Title. While they function similarly, it isn't the same thing.

Take a look at the "Title". It isn't the actual Title (MSO is). It is a State issued Certificate of Title, which is a substitute for the actual title. When you move from California to Oregon, you have to transfer the certificate from California, to Oregon. If it was the actual title, no such transfer is needed.

Yes, this is a dirty little secret that almost nobody actually knows about.

Here's proof you are not correct.

When you buy CASH (money) a vehicle, you can ask for the Manufacturers Statement Of Origin (MSO), and the dealer is obliged to surrender it to you. THIS is the actual Title. You own the car, free and clear.

What happens is, when you buy on credit, the MSO is destroyed, the state issues a Certificate of Title, which is a replacement for the actual title. ON that title, there is a notification of a lien on the vehicle. You cannot sell said vehicle without also providing proof that the lien has been satisfied.

And yes, there ought to be a standard for in vehicle systems such as this. But it is also in the interest of the Car Companies not to provide a standard, so that they can upsell you on the initial purchase rather than having you go to a customizing vendor to have it installed.

I am not against contract law. Government shouldn't be involved, one way or another, in private contracts, such as marriage. The fact that it requires a "license" to get Married is proof that government defines marriage (when it shouldn't)

Can you contract away rights? Can Contracts grant you more rights than you currently have?

The rights you have in a contract, are your rights outside that contract. You cannot contract new rights that you don't already have. Gay Marriage isn't about "rights" it is about benefits granted by government.

You can't end the War on drugs, any more than you can end the IRS, too many other industries require it now.

Best Motivation ever. Slightly ahead of Procreation.

For Troubleshooting (Semi sarcastic)

Rights apply to a PERSON, not a group of people. Marriage, is by definition a group of people. Which is why I oppose any government action, support or restriction, on marriages at all.
