Snakeheads aren't carp. Snakeheads actually taste good.
500 cars isn't very many and would merely be a drop in the bucket compared to how much money Daimler AG has.
The OP was a clumsy attempt at humor, but I have issue with claiming that Daimler would be OK with allowing an $18-50 million sale go away.
You are right. But then without tax and revenue from licensing how will the government function?
No income tax there? No VAT or sales tax? No vehicle licensing fees? No drivers' license fees? No fuel taxes? These bogus "licenses" are just the way "progressive" governments enact regressive taxes to keep the rabble from starting their own businesses and possibly challenging the elite.
Trying to make a law suit against current valid law is just idiotic. Try to change the law instead, well if you can.
This is not a rule to follow in a democratic form of government. If it were, then we'd have to have left the Jim Crow laws in place because, after all, they were "valid". Perhaps the government has no right to tell people what, or who, they are allowed to carry in their vehicles.
If I was a paid government shill, I wouldn't be taking public transport to work everyday.
VP Biden did when he was a senator. But he's also an attention-whore who makes five times the average US household money and still doesn't have any money left at the end of the year for charity. With those budgeting skills, he probably NEEDS to take the train.
We are becoming a country where the rich can do anything they want to everyone else.
Comcast and CenturyLink are corporations; they are not "rich" people, corporate personhood aside. More importantly, they are public utilities. Government has created corporations and offered privileges to utilities, so that's where the problem lies-- not with "rich" people.
Talking heads discussing the weather does not constitute a "weather report" any more than a talking head discussing politics constitutes "news".
Of course, the irony is the fact that weather reports have uncertainty due to the element of randomness, so every weather report is not necessarily "fiction" but it's not "true" either.
some purple flowers I never learned the name of the whole time I grew up there
Probably chicory (which is more of a lavender color) or creeping charlie. I guess you could steep the roots and see if it tastes like camp coffee.
Genetics explains why you look like your father, and if you don't, why you should.
