Yeah and the senators who ratified women’s right to vote were all elected by men but they still did the ethical thing.
At least Sanders seems to want to reduce billionaires’ disproportionate influence on politics.
Maybe you’re ok if Elon Musk’s opinion on how much you should get taxed counts a billion times more than yours, but you really shouldn’t be.

Interesting. This kind of bill is for costs incurred as a result of the rally rather than for directly using the facilities, e.g. paying for an increased police presence to control protestors. Seems like candidates are not really obligated to pay for this.
This article claims they pay a higher effective tax rate, not more in taxes. A citizen working the same position would pay even more in taxes since they would also have to pay income tax.
Maybe the headline should be that sales + other flat taxes are becoming an increasing burden for low income workers. This is the problem for the illegal immigrants in the study, and even more of a problem for citizens who earn the same amount.

Does this mean you get dropped into outer space if you stay inside for more than checks notes ~4 minutes?
Is it feasible? Sure. The limit on this kind of calculation is basically how much detail do we need to add to the environment (i.e., can we make the model) and how high resolution does the sound wave need to be (can we calculate it given finite compute resources).
To get something that roughly sounds like a rock? Not difficult to model or calculate, if we make some reasonable assumptions.
The sound of a wet towel thrown in the water during a hailstorm? Uhhh that’s a tough one.
Simulating sound uses classical mechanics governed by the wave equation, which is well-understood. In terms of CPU power, the calculation to propagate a simple sound wave (wavelet) could probably have been done on a TI-89 calculator from high school.
The idea is checking out with more than a basket of goods is really inconvenient. And I agree, it’s much slower and there’s no space for it.
If you’re not afraid of the legal system why not slap a Disney logo on there too?
Why do you think the organic label for food means nothing?

Birth rate decreasing isn’t a problem, it’s a symptom of declining quality of life/access to resources.
Instead of unsustainably adding more people maybe we should worry about the damage an obsession with growth+profit does to the climate and social structure.
Oh yeah the hate speech is legal, it’s just the hanging of the sign on public property that isn’t.
If you would prefer a socialist party candidate the most logical choice is to pick whatever Democratic/Republican candidate is most willing to enact voting method reform, e.g. ranked choice voting.
Because voters are incentivized to pick one of two main parties in the current method, third parties are essentially guaranteed never to get off the ground.
