Can someone explain the VAT tax? We don't have VAT here, I've heard of it but never had it explained but I've Heard it makes American vehicles more expensive in places like Germany.

Edit to say thank you for the responses, very helpful

Not a lot of people were making $60k in 1985. And yes, wages today have absolutely fallen behind. I'm not even making $60k now.

Yeah my 15yo son is running an early i7 with DDR3 and a 1660ti at 1080/60 and he plays Roblox and chats with his friends on Discord, watches YouTube. He doesn't care about upgrades at all and never spends money or buys games or anything.

If I'm in an Airbnb I pour it in the lawn.

I've still never seen Ep. III

To be fair, I remember writing a choose your own adventure text based game in basic, and the only way to save and reload what you had programmed was via audio cassette.

General managers are paid enough. Just be the GM, duh.

I feel like this whole thread was a setup for this. Bravo!

Somehow that weird paddle cycle is bouyant without a balloon.

It's total BS but it's not like the previous administration wasn't doing the same thing to a lesser degree. It's documented. It's one of 100 reasons I left Reddit 1 1/2 yrs ago. Propaganda and content manipulation sucks no matter who is pulling the strings. It goes way farther back too.

I'm in both of these pictures. But my house was the cheapest 1br I could find in a bad part of St. Louis around 1998. I'm in a different house now, still too small for my family, and neither my wife or I have been able to afford to go to the dentist in about 20 years.

Yeah when I hear M3 I'm thinking BMW for sure.

Bullshit. It was passed without Republican support. Negotiations were smoke and mirrors because they all were taking big healthcare money.

It was passed without Republican support, any negotiations were theater because they were bought and payed for. Fuck the ACA.

It was passed without Republican support, so I guess you're describing centrist Democrats?

Yeah, Democrats compromising with Democrats.

My grandmother just passed last year at 100. She wrote exactly like this but in English. She grew up in a German speaking home in the US, her parents had been part of a large group of Germans who had settled in Russia because conditions in Germany were worsening. They broke wild land for farming, built roads and houses, dug wells etc. When Russia seized all of their farms and packed them into train cars where many died, they fled to the US.

My great grandparents got their citizenship when he fought in WWI. I met him once before he died, he had the same first name I do and he had a wooden leg from a rock slide unrelated to his service in the war. I have a decorative plate with his likeness with a moustache and a cigarette hanging in my kitchen.

I can read this stuff though, my grandmother sent handwritten cards and letters for 40 years of my life. Also I have lived in Germany although my German isn't very fluent.

I will take your windows 10 PC and give you a keychain made of DDR2 RAM in trade.

Like normal conditions?

It might be higher than 99%. But not quite 100.
