You didn’t read the article.
Trump is saying if he takes away Elon’s subsidies, Elon would be forced to pack up and go home.
Not that he would physically deport him.
It’s a misleading title
2.3 billion dollars in physical currency
21.8 trillion dollars in total currency
8.5 trillion dollars in debt owned by foreign countries
36 trillion dollars in debt total
Foreign entities are promised half the current total supply of USD
Oh it would be an absolute mess
Last state out has to pay the national debt!
US holds like half the debt of the world. That would be a really interesting scenario.
Is a private jet an operating cost?
You have to understand what profit is.
If I make a church, collect 1 million from my congregation. Then, I pay myself 1 million for the job of being the pastor.
My business, the church, is non-profit. It had 1 million in revenue and 1 million in expenses. No profit.
Now, I would be dumb to pay myself the million as a salary because then that million gets income taxed. I’d “buy” 1 million dollars worth of bibles for Uzbekistan and never fulfill the order or something. Launder it.
The idea of why the church doesn’t get taxed is sound. People pay income tax, church collects taxed income, church spends taxed income to better community.
They are essentially supposed to be a middle man. If i took my taxed income and donated it directly to buy bibles for Uzbekistan. Then it doesn’t make sense for my money to be taxed again. So if i give my money to the church and they give it to Uzbekistan, then why tax it?
Problem is our tax code has loop holes
A church was never supposed to buy a private jet. Yet it has become a business expense.
What did ghouls ever do to you?
What’s the tariff on something made in international waters?
You hate standard time

You can not simply “shift” billions of dollars from one currency to another.
As much as the rich people with billions want to get rid of the USD, the people willing to give GBP or Euro for USD don’t have to accept. Why would they want to be holding on to the USD if the others don’t?
They could be slowly doing it right now, but if the shit hits the fan, the exchange rate would jump.
One day people will realize that you can make money when the stock market goes down
Causing it to go down is much easier than making it go up
Smart people looking to make money on a declining market told him some “smart” stuff to do. He believes it is smart. It is smart for the people that profit. Just hurts so many.
He believes he is special, like some kind of perfect business man where the “deals” always get done and work out in the end for him.
He has been used his whole life like a rich monkey to make others money thinking he was the brains behind the whole operation
“Free”
Nothing is free
Someone paid for the fountain. Either you, your neighbor, your friend, or your fellow countryman. But someone.
Why nickel and dime everyone that is probably never going to even see the fountain instead of letting the people that want/need pay for it?
Cold filtered water at just a single park you regularly go to is probably worth 3 bucks a month.
If extra money went to park improvements, that would be even better.
I don’t see why everyone wants “free” when it’s just a hidden cost that you’re probably paying anyways. Yes, probably costs more for the people that use the service more, but that’s the way it should be.
Personally I’d rather save 20 dollars on my taxes and bring water to the park. Even still tap water is just fine.
Why would I even want to pay 5 dollars more in taxes so someone doesn’t have to bring a water bottle?
This is a premium service that shouldn’t be the burden of the taxpayer.
Coke does an inaugural bottle for every president
This is just the first diet one
Same style as every other inaugural coke
Coke has been doing this every year.
He probably wanted to be special and the ability to say “First DIET coke inaugural bottle”
From the comments here, it seems like his plan of making people think Coke is doing it to endorse him is working.
It’s misleading
This is the first diet coke, not the first inaugural coke.
So “Company continues its tradition with making a special inaugural coke bottle”
Them not doing it would be more of a political statement
How is slavery bad for capitalism?
Slavery is amazing for capitalism.
Slavery is cheap labor.
Capitalism loves cheap labor.

Heat pumps are generally easy to install since they’re generally one single packaged unit.
Only hard part about installing a HVAC system is filling the freon lines from the condenser to evaporator.
Most packaged units come prefilled, and if one single unit then no worries.
Even if you got everything in place and just had a HVAC contractor to solder and fill lines if you needed a split unit. You could save a ton of money.
Otherwise any DIYer could install one
A laptop with a screen on both sides would have its niche.
Shuting it would be like a tablet.
You could do something while a person across watches.
If you could rotate the screen you could swivel the screen to swap between two physical screens. I prefer two monitors over an ultra wide or trying to digitally swap between two screens. Rotating screen would have the problem of not being able to see both at once.
However, if you made the screen on the back hinge forward. You could flip the screen towards you and have a second physical monitor.
Sounds expensive and not really needed. But it wouldn’t be a bad design
