I keep wondering about aptera. They are just getting their production ready model going and I can’t help but think if they don’t have production to far setup in california they would be smarter to do it in ireland. The carbon fiber body comes from europe and the batteries from asia. So evern if they build it in the us it will suffer tariffs for like 2/3rds of the cost or higher and it will effect everything sold everywhere. If they built it in ireland then it would be way cheaper everywhere but the us and the us cost would not be all that much higher than it would be if they built it here. I assume anything else with such a diverse supply chain would be effected similarly. Like boeing vs airbus.

it this is a dip yes, if its something that keeps going over the course of a few years like 2008 or the great depression then no but whoever trades outside of market times has been rather negative for the last week.

I don’t see one unless our society because less dependent on bullshit and honors privacy. I don’t know about anyone else but I constantly bullshit specifics about myself on line to dirty up any data collected on me.

aughts were not bad but it was falling and once we got in the teens ugh. oh and old man thing the pre www was advertisement free which was awesome.

Im noticing a pattern in the us where after hours the big money pulls out and then during the trading day the chumps buy the dip.

if trump gets the uk back in the eu at least something good would have come of it.

Yeah its like just having a nice little relaxing smoke of crack. I mean its not blue peter.

From my youth im used to some credits at the start. The big stars and such, but then the comprehensive list after. I have never known the comprehensive list to occur before the movie.

Thats just the two parts of enshitification. take away things you like and push things you don’t. I still can’t believe how bank sites can be so limited in what you can do but hey heres a useless feature we give so all good.

See. to me. we became the tax haven.

I mean that sounds more like a tax haven situation. Honestly to stop that I think countries should require companies meet their tax rate globally where they can deduct what they pay elsewhere.

I would not even say it worked once in 83. Lower rates are one possible reason but like anything with the economy there are plenty of factors including cyclical changes that could explain it.

proven likely true means not proven true. Way to many factors. I personally thing the theory has a sorta merit but is very limited and vague (in the sense of there is no identification of where the exact sweet spot of taxation levels are). For example the punitive measures for not paying taxes at very high levels need to be very severe to curtail such behavior. So five figure owning person or mom and pop shop you give a slap on the wrist. Maybe 10% of owed added. Wealthiest individuals and companies get knocked completely out of their level so like 500% of what was owed.

This is what is funny for me. I would like tariffs to discourage trade with countries that have less democracy, rights for its citizens, and high income disparity (which unfortunately we are not a paragon of currently) and encourage trade with countries that are the reverse of that.

proven to be true? that is news to me.

lets not forget browbeating the fed to drop interest rates before covid hit.

Maybe. I doubt this artist would up for it though. Even violence depicted is clearly done in a mental fantasy type of way. My guess is they want a functional and fair and peaceful society. Like many of us they are seeing a situation that may not allow for that but don’t want to take those steps if it can be avoided. I mean they may not have a take like this but its what I get from the few decades of the comic.

this. I want socialism and capitalism balanced. things that everyone needs should be available to everyone and not left to the market but unnecessary things like media and toys and whatnot the government should not be concerned about. Then there should be plenty of regulation to keep things safe. but when it comes down to democracy vs autocracy I want as much democracy as possible.

one night stand apps lead the way. grinder, tinder, etc.

I was noticing this as well. The place that should have the highest tarrifs.
