The concern is how that wealth buys access and political power, or even worse, how one person can gate keep access to political power. Democracy was designed to diffuse political power, and so hight concentration of wealth in a single person leans antidemocratic.

Since this trial centered around capital, the jury should have issued the death penalty for everyone since that is capital punishment. Just kidding. Lol. :)

Excluding exclusion is by definition inclusive. To be inclusive, you have to exclude exclusion.

Could not get into USC despite your fragile ego? Even USC has some standards. I am and have been just kidding btw. Hope you have a nice day.

Dear fragile USC grad: We know you all have a chip on your shoulder and are cultist USC aluminati, but please put your fragile ego aside and realize it is a compliment to say USC is as well known as the other two schools and is no comment on its academics. I mean OJ Simpson went there, and he turned out fine. Just fine.

This does not resolve anything. We know grades are a gradation. That is not automatically a ranking. Gradation is different grades of competence with respect to the material. If everyone has the same competence, they are in the same gradation and get the same grade. Ranking is where someone is with respect to others. I.e. how well they do with respect to others, not with the material. So a rank is standing with respect to others whereas a grade is simply a level of competence with respect to the material.

Is this really for National Security? If so, then why are the main entities involved with national security exempt from the requirement? âoeIn an FAQ about the new designation, the FCC clarified that the determination does not apply to routers intended to be used exclusively in industrial, enterprise, or military contexts, and the Covered List does not restrict the import or sale of routers for the exclusive use by the federal government. However, the decision carries notable implications across industries.âoe

Does this mean they have installed NSA backdoors? Lol.

I do not believe in violence. I am saying the post should not be surprised because guns and violence in general are sadly common in the USA. Violence solves nothing and has no place in USA society.

America was founded on violent revolution against the British. One could say it is in the DNA. So no need to clutch your pearls.

Gardyloo wants you to follow the laws, not Gardyloo.

I wonder if this push is so the Feds can force backdoors and spy on everyone so Orange Tang can crush dissent in violation of the 1st Amendment?

Where are you driving it though? If you are driving it in a ruralish area or in the midwest where traffic and roads are not complicated, then that may explain why it works so easily for you. Also, does it work in inclement weather? Rain, fog, snow?

They are going with the devil they know, who is not the real devil. Lol.

Cool. Starting with you.
