The problem is that is not entirely true. The big programs take in millions. But the hundreds of smaller schools lose money on athletics. It is usually expensed as marketing. It ultimately gets paid by students via tuition or taxpayers.

The real answer IMO is creating a minor league like baseball for both football and basketball. If you are good enough to get paid then go get paid. Otherwise go play college.

Here in the US I wait until the cars stop on crosswalks that are equipped with red traffic lights. I was blown away the first time visiting Europe where cars stopped when we simply approached a crosswalk.

Protects most people from it. The vaccine does not take in 100% of the people it is administered to.

Chinas economy is closer to a single party than communist. Their economy, while heavily steered by that single party and the government shares in ownership of production (socialism), is likely more capitalist than the US. If you can make it faster or cheaper then go for it. They don’t enforce IP rights that hand monopolies to big companies. There are not laws that lock in outdated business models via cronyism.

Which could also lead to parts supply issues.

BYD is selling a low end EV in China for $12k. They have nice cars in the $30k range. They have built out a supply chain that makes this possible (cheaper labor, too).

It is used and has a negative connotation.

I read elsewhere it will be there when the season starts.

Why not build your own? There are a lot of raspberry pi projects out there. Like https://openframe.io

Why are republicans so against the free market? They have codified car dealership business model into law too, and are ok with monopolies like

If you had a gun would you pull it? There were likely hundreds of guns there. But there was also hundreds of police officers ready to take down anyone with a gun.

We taught our daughter to count starting at zero. Her kindergarten teacher was not amused.

You can still buy a house in rural America. A simple ranch house is still $150k in many small towns here in Kansas. Jobs do not pay as much, and there are few amenities, but normal people buy a house, get married, and have kids.

One, and zero when sleeping on my stomach.

That is a particular type of reactor that is in testing.

Because he did not bring case in time. I was hoping for a more fun reason.

The IRS has been purposely hamstrung so they do not have the resources to audit the wealthy.

While I also feel it is weird, I strongly believe marrying kids (<18) should be illegally nationally with no exceptions. I have personally witnessed lives destroyed.

So, you agree with OP? There is not an argument against it here.

It is the one device most people use literally all day everyday. Having a great one is worth the money. But it does not need replaced every year. Mine is 4 years old and still works like new (one battery replacement). I will likely replace it next year.
