If you are paying $20 a lb for expresso beans you are probably not a coffee shop and definitely not buying the coffee that costs $6 at a chain coffee shop.

How did he mess up? His goal is to screw up the real economy and sell $Melania coins.

The EU needs to build arms to defend itself that the US can't interfere with and knows less about, and so does China.

Germany must be wondering why it is keeping enemy bases on its soil.

Not have less than $1500? The shell company could have employed them or purchased parts from them, or they could also be doing the same with their own shells and therefore often need to get to the head of a specific line and the DMV investigation probably wouldn't say much more than it has said, unless that was solid evidence of collusion by a DMV employee.

If Doge wouldn't pay out then Musk can't complain when Canada doesn't.

Putin spent a long time saber rattling before he invaded Ukraine. I guess they shouldn't have been concerned back then because nothing horrible started happening yet?

Copyright law has a long history ported from earlier media. People here want to say media is just some product but the US decided that is in no way true.

You are paying more for the DVD because copyright law and fair use apply to it including the right to backup. Companies prefer to sell you new online licensing as a scam.

The US didn't correctly defend the right to backup, but that leaves a funny grey zone where WB being bad at making DVDs means less ability to shame "piracy" tool makers because backups is normalized and in no way suspicious if the media isn't perfect like they said.

In the case of copyright you are not buying the media. You are buying a licensed right sent as media. If they wish to make no impediments to making a backup then maybe they have no fault.

Right, if it is unreasonable a bunch of climate change denying creationists who think Canada is responsible for the US' drug problems will feel totally ashamed. Maybe they will even go to area 51 to ask for safe passage away from their shame in this galaxy.

Apparently the delusion of exceptionalism affecting physics didn't die with the entirely equatable Afghanistan experiences or am I supposed to take something else from silent down votes?

Without Chelsea Clinton's endorsement, I don't think I could possibly use a 24 hour day trading tool. The US is a flim-flam nation now and you shouldn't buy all the crap they sell each other on TV.

Having a suitcase full of money has none of those problems.. And under performs because it does nothing.
