Sure, you got plenty who want to vote for cuts... that are for later groups, to be phased in. Or they are hypocrites. Recall the saying "Get the government out of my Medicare!"
So... you want a dictatorship. Fun stuff. And right wing people wonder why others consider them insane. Also, fun fact, repealing the 16th won't remove income tax. Right wing activist judges tried to block income tax, so they got bypassed by the 16th. And 17th, hah, nah, rather prefer Senate seats be for the highest bidder. And no, you need liberals to do constitutional amendments. If you tried without them, well... civil war coming right up.
And when the recession comes, and you get laid off, what then? Tariffs just lead to layoffs inevitably. The only thing propping up this entire shitshow is the tax cuts and stock buybacks. Couple more interest rate raises and things are going to start crumbling (like nearly every recession for the last century).
As usual, the stuff that humans can do with their hands that robots have a hard time with, lacking the nimbleness and dexterity. Largely cheap textiles, those are already sent to Bangladesh and Vietnam, but even those are starting to get pricier. People count on having their $20 T-shirts, or other cheap clothes.
The other thing will be any form of manufacturing because the case is that even in a automated setup, you need industrial engineers to properly plan and layout production lines to maximize profit, by reducing downtime between production runs, and minimize the need to reconfigure things in the first place. I assume companies are looking to either employ their own own people, or train Africans on it, and then pay them in local wages, keeping labor costs low. Considering the median income in the US, vs China, vs Kenya, and we see why.
Not true. A pension fund manages according to the directives it is given, which usually include maximize return, but can include other factors. This is how CalPERS and CalSTER justified removing investment from South Africa, so that they would no longer support the apartheid regime.
A long time, since i can just import the food from about a dozen other places? Food is a commodity, which is why we overproduce it all the damm time. Why we pay for farmers to NOT grow food from time to time. Why virtually every nation practices a level of protectionism when it comes to food.
Unfortunately, yes, because those long term unemployed adults are called retirees, who dropped out of the workforce, either voluntarily or forcibly during the recession. They do depend on Social Security and Medicare, mainly the latter, because many do have either pensions, or good retirement funds, but drug costs and medical costs will obliterate anyone's retirement fund in a heartbeat. And yes, they are cheering him on to destroy those 2 programs. Hence the unironic quote "Keep the government out of my Medicare". And yes many many boomers who are retired are hard core Trump supporters.
I assume the executions and camps will be part of the 2nd term program? Maybe liquidate all of California so moderates and establishment types are removed from the American gene pool? After all, a strong leader wouldn't stand any challenge to his almighty rule, amirite?
It really depends on where you apply. In a small company, policy is obviously more flexible, but personal relationships carry a lot more weight, thus if you are new and have not built those relationships, you are far more likely to be the first to be cut.
In a larger company, policy often ties the hands of managers, so the newest person often is cut, though they can opt to do early retirements and other tactics to get older more expensive workers out for maximum budget impact.
Really this is something that one should evaluate based on the interview. But there is a value in having job security and being basically indispensable to the current company. Money is portable and king, but at some point in life, money can't buy what people want, in terms of time.
I'm curious, does your stockpile prevent the poison slipped into your drink, or the throat being slit in the middle of the night? Also as a maker, I assume you have to go to work, so I guess I can grab your children as excellent hostages.
Or you can just pay some welfare and prevent any of the above from happening, which is what happens when people get fucking desperate.
Most business buy something to make a problem go away, including the big ones. So yes, many startups simply exist as the mortar in the wall of the big tech companies. Think of all the supporting tech that has been developed, that is used heavily by the big players. This is normal, and often that supporting tech becomes the next standard. Probably the best example I can think of is all the services that are based on AWS (either hosted on it, or use the various AWS services to provide a unified service to other businesses).
I guess I must be spoiled by my credit union as well. Auto loan was 2.6%, and after a year of on time payments, they dropped it to 2.1%. Can't imagine paying 5%+ for an auto loan.
The key difference is explicit vs implicit consent. When living with someone, people often are explicitly consenting, in the form of a lease (if renting from the owner), or title (whose name is on it, can be joint).
With relationships between members in any hierarchy, the implied consent of the relationship betrays the explicit consent everyone else has with the superior.
And yes, there is always the possibility of retaliation, the main evolution of man has been to make such retaliation expensive as to not pursue it.
Which they traded for the worst kind of regulation: Pay Trump, and you can do anything you want. See the multitude of bribes being paid to Cohen, as well as the variety of payments to Trump properties worldwide.
One minor correct, AT&T is not buying Time Warner the cable company. That already got bought by Charter and combined to form Spectrum. AT&T is buying Time Warner the content company (CNN, HBO, Warner Bros, etc.)
On one hand, I think those engineers need a discussion about underestimating capabilities.
On the other, I think they need to be given god damm medals for making a project beat its lifespan estimates, not by 10%, not by 100%, not by 1000%, but by 5500%.
Serialization of data only is not a risk. Serialization of objects that can contain references to other objects is the problem. Because an attacker can tamper with the raw binary object that can still be deserialized, but now has different contents and now will run differently on the other end, in a manner not expected or possibly controlled.
Basically, serializing anything that can be acted upon is dangerous. It is like sending you a package and then immediately telling you to pick the first thing out of the package, turn to your nearest family member and use the object. If I did this with a camera in the box, no problem. Do this with a book, again no problem. Pull out a handgun... big problem. Deserialization will happily do this, even though you may have added code somewhere to prevent packages from having handguns, because deserialization ignores all that.
As long as Libertarians want people to have guns, someone will organize those with guns to win over others with and without guns. And thus ends your stateless society. Enjoy.

Already happening, and the ones forcing the issue are the Chinese. Basically bribing African countries to take these seriously.

How are they working less? In this setup, they are working the same number of hours a week.

Both, the protectionists policies took the reparations problem and made it MUCH worse.

Because they abided by it, including the spelled out consequences of violating it, even if it is the CEO.
It does not. Time Warner Cable split from Timer Warner. Time Warner Cable was then bought by Charter, and made into Spectrum, which you have today.
AT&T bought Time Warner, which consists of things like CNN, HBO, Warner Bro studio, and a few other channels.
This merger is a direct result of 2 things
1) Comcast paving the way by buying NBC
2) Rise of OTT providers becoming content producers (Netflix, Amazon).

The most definitive memoir will be Xi Jinping. Those will be quite an interesting read, now that he is ruler for life of China.
