A question I asked was answered but as soon as I replied "it worked" they deleted the answer. Which somehow gave me a negative rating when a twerp who did not understand decided it was a bad question. Many experts wanted to help others but not let them profit from the answers. Good riddance.

Did an entire city make this up? https://www.cbsnews.com/boston...

It's good for that.

$100 in 1940 is now $2,315 by cpi making a ratio of 23. (https://www.calculator.net/inflation-calculator.html?cstartingamount1=100&cinmonth1=13&cinyear1=1940&coutmonth1=11&coutyear1=2025&calctype=1&x=Calculate#uscpi)

S&P was $10 in 1940, and $6,845 end of 2025, for a ratio of 684.

Stocks are 30 times bigger than inflation. You are correct.

I was just reading how America uses banking and embargoes to try and stop everyone else trading with Iran, but no one involved why America or Britain have a beef with Iran. It has no effect on Americans. Both nations produce their own oil supplies. Hundreds of billions of US and British taxes, maybe more, have been spent on Iran in general, with tens of billions in fighter jet, aircraft carrier and advanced missile activity per year protecting Israel, since Israel cannot stop many small missiles and has no chance with big missiles. That was all Brits and Americans. This spending that does not appear on those Israel hand out charts linked above.

This is an urban legend. Migrants are much less likely to report crimes performed by their own, especially crimes against them, and often consider people not like them not worthy of equal treatment. hey are expected to shut up and play the old country games. Lying is also a virtue in many cultures. So no, migrants are not special unicorn races, nationalities or religions who "do less crime than the norm".

He could be best friend's with Flashman's great grand child. Or is he a descendant of old Flashie?

Turns out they usually knew each other beforehand or for so long you could not blame a website.

Then there will be an OpenAI coin and they will print their own net worth.

All patents should be revoked. Too often they make no sense and worse, they make nothing. But his trophy wife's woeful PhD from MIT debacle revealed so many people have names on patents they mean no one owns them. I suspect this is how nations like Israel and China have stolen so much IP from the US and Europe. Muddy the patent names with 20+ "inventors", no matter their incompetence, and they can legitimately claim them.

These people do not need any taxes to do anything. Stop the nonsense.

While many American companies are technically worth more than some Western nations, they eventually lose those mantles because the nations can print their own money. Just as MMT made it OK for nations to print their money ad nauseam to pay debts, crypto clearly offers corporations the holy grail of printing their own net worth.

This describes the criteria Harvard used to exclude Asians. Hence why they sued Harvard for ignoring their SAT score.

How many people have been denied homes and food because of someone called Fair Isaac? Do these stories write themselves?

And we pay subscriptions for that?
