Vorticity

I want to see the video of this assault and what led up to it.

Ah, I guess I missed that part when reading. So, they're likely cooperating with investigations of other cartels.

It's not cheap, like $1,000 plus periodic supplies but you can buy your own cpap. What I don't know is how you can get it calibrated to your needs without seeing a sleep specialist.

What's stopping us from using similar techniques in hot climates now? Why aren't we building similar structures as homes in Phoenix instead of the standard suburban homes?

I have a few questions:

• Why?
• How long will they be here?
• How big was the bribe?

I forsee the auto industry fighting this tooth and nail. They invested in EVs for many reasons, but partially because the tax credit is there. Pulling the tax credit now will be yet another blow against the auto industry.

My guess at how this plays out is that they'll drop the tax credit, then spend even more on corporate subsidies.

I'm not really sure why you're being downvoted. I up voted you.

I didn't actually mean to imply that I disagreed with you. I was just giving some alternative numbers to demonstrate the issue in a more realistic way. I also didn't think you were implying that billionaires are good just because the example in this post isn't the best one.

I actually wouldn't mind if mine were smaller. They're taking over my garden.

In CO my Columbine have turned into bushes and are ready to give me hundreds of blooms! I have no idea why they've become such monsters but they're probably three foot diameter spheres.

Okay, how about this? If someone were to work every day for 50 years and if they invested everything they earned at an 8% interest rate, they would need to earn approximately $1.4M/day to reach Elon's current level of wealth.

At $5,000/day income and 8% interest investments, it would take 120 years to accumulate $340B.

I'm not in any way defending this. This is going to get people killed, including people who are here with legal status. Likely even citizens.

They don't appear to be accepting just anyone off the street, though. The order talks about deputizing existing law enforcement officers as ICE agents.

So, we're going to have even more poorly trained ICE officers rounding people up to be sent to concentration camps. People who have no idea how to validate documents. People who don't understand the different types of legal statuses. People who want nothing more than to round up anyone with brown skin, regardless of their status. People who know that due process is dead because we can't afford five million trials.

Ignoring what anyone thinks of undocumented immigrants, people with legal status are going to get caught in this. Some of them are going to go to camps. Some of them are going to be deported. Some of them are going to die. There will be more and more "mistakes" with no attempt at remediation.

I have no doubt that even citizens are going to die as a consequence of this.
