What you are describing sounds an awful lot like collapse to me. Your slavery South comparison is missing that a lot of what they produced was exported to places where at least officially slavery was banned. So that model is propped up in one location by areas with purchasing power from the general public elsewhere. The thought experiment was what if everywhere was the slavery South, in which case the economy will no longer be sustainable.

It's not in the billionaire's interest for us plebs to have no money at all. A lot of their interests are funded by us. Paying for power, food, iPhones, clothes, cars, holidays etc. So if they have it all and we have none, the economy will collapse, people will barter with vape juice and booze, and the billionaires will realize they cannot eat money.
When the economy collapses the question of who will pay taxes is a secondary problem. The primary one will be to rebuild the state and a new currency and then they'll look at the tax code.
I'm also getting my tax advice from Gonzo on LinkedIn.
What a sad state of journalism. Celebrity posted something on social. Opinions are divided. Commenters said this. Others said that. Thanks for looking at our ads.
She may be right, I dunno. I'm criticizing the publication and quality of the story, not the actor and alleged AI influencer.
You might want to look into what's called promession. It's a way to turn you into fertilizer.
Your question is hard to answer. Because when it comes to how corpses are dealt with, the rules aren't federal in the US. So you need to look at the states. And the rules for burials, release of the ashes, etc. are possibly set at county level. Likewise in Europe, the rules differ by countries and even within those by whatever subdivisioning applies. I looked it up for Germany, which has some federal rules about how to handle a corpse. But then 16 state laws on what is allowed in terms of final resting places. So far as I can see a Viking burial will not be allowed in places where cremation must happen at a specific temperature, the ashes may not be spread outside cemeteries, or other environmental laws forbid it. So that's basically nowhere then. Being shot out of a cannon will probably fail at an environmental hurdle or the fact that civilians can't own active military equipment.
I think this is a common language divided by an ocean thing.
I grew up with # being pound as well. The use of the pound symbol to highlight shit came from coding. Hash is another word for the pound symbol. It tags stuff. Ergo hashtag. Born in the glory years of Twitter.
Those thoughts are not crazy. I feel like that every time I take a picture off a bridge or tall building and I'm leaning over the edge to get a better angle. I found peace of mind in a lanyard strap.
That is a valid point. As the question has been answered already, I was just wondering what prompted it.
He wasn't supposed to be alone in the cell. They were supposed to check on him. The surveillance cameras were supposed to work. It's possible this is 3 human fuckups in a row with sad consequences. By which I mean his victims could never see him in court getting convicted. It's also possible that he was killed in custody. We like conspiracy theories. We may never know. Because you would need to be able to prove this. And unless they filmed themselves hanging him, which I doubt they did, then this will take its rightful place among the great myths of our time.
It's also possible he offed himself. He may have suddenly discovered a conscience and developed scruples (low chance). He may have not felt like discussing his pedophilia in open court again and chose the coward's way out (higher chance). Somebody may have pressured him. He knew shit about many of the rich and powerful; the reverse may also be true (highest chance of these three).
Absolutely. Thiel-backed is a red flag hoisted on a flagpole whose tip reaches just below the ISS, whose width is at least 1000 football fields long, which is illuminated at all times by 5000 spotlights, and which is simultaneously and counterintuitively on fire despite the lack of oxygen at that altitude.
