Let me know when NZ has a currency used around the world, and for almost every major purchase. Then we can discuss global impact of what some people would view as devaluing the US monetary system by removing a denomination.
there are many wise men,. sadly they get vilified if their wisdom goes against a political ideology. Even when you can look at their history and see that everything they said would happen in their area of expertise, does happen.
And since 7 is lucky, I will gladly take their 2 dollars of evil, and give the 7 pennies of goodness.
I know, I'm a saint for taking on all the evil.
Also, I will gladly pay you 10K cash now for your house so you can use that money that Jesus is coming to kill us all. All you have to do is not be in the house after the date you say he is coming back.
I leave a penny, because as a kid I was always short a penny. I mean, 6.25% can be hard to calculate when you are 10 and trying to buy as much candy as you can possible buy. .
Yes you can. For nation wide adds, say a price and then 'plus local taxes' When you are in a situation or place where you can actually make the purchase, all prices there must include local taxes. IN fact, you can say the actually price has to be twice as big as the pre tax price.
You should note that Spirit airline added a charge of $2 per ticket — dubbed the Department of Transportation unintended consequences fee.
Ben Is a douche bag who will do what ever it takes to hide information from consumers.
Funny, that go on about 'hiding' the tax, and take effort to add a fee and put obnoxious scrolling lies, but then claim that can't break out the fee if the consumer clicks on a 'price break out' link.
SO you want to as a federakl tax? ok, there is a valid discussion there.
You want to remove the states write to have , or not have, there own state tax? that's a non starter.
The posters proposal would mean a serious economic tax inequity.
Write now, it's pretty trivial to get the tax for any specific area. IT's all published in nice easy to read layouts. This 'IT's to hard' lie coming from companies who exists because of computers is laughable. Seriously, when amazon said that we all should have pointed and laughed at them.
", they'll figure out a way to reduce the cost of their product " Raise, not reduce. Margin are already pretty thin, so they would round up to the next 99.
we have computers now, so I can't imagine why it would be hard to round to what ever the store wants. As far as advertising outside of the store, don't make adding the tax mandatory.
A practice like what? Behaving as the user requested?
Take over your browser. Yeah, you just stick with browsers then need admin rights, and don't put information you request into a sandbox, that's much better.
" It may have put its settings in the user-writable area of the registry but it's very sneaky to do so" WHAT? that's how it's supposed to work. You should be label to install thing into the user area if the user wants to, that's the fucking point. The other browsers want you to install it in a way that gives them permission to do whatever they want. The other browsers are FORCING YOU to give up security in order to install and run them.
What the hell is wrong with people like you? a company makes a browser that gives the users options, adheres to standards, doesn't force you to violate your chosen security, and everyone is against it? Which would be fine if that actually could state a good reason.
But we get idiots like you who done't seem to know how their own computer is supposed to work, and clearly it's Google's fault for doing what you allow it to do.
"In other words: "We found the wall inconvenient, so we simply tunneled under it."" no. In other words " We are giving the user what they asks us to give them, that can turn it off." This isn't an arms race, it isn't a war, it isn't..well anything of note.
If you replaced Apple with MS, the story would be about how poor MS security is..and I would still be saying the same thing: NTSH
"a wonderful, deep, involved storyline," not, it isn't.. unless you mean predictable and dry.
"but it's substantially longer. " no, the story isn't. Is poor writing and needles detail means more words, but the whole story could have been done in 5 400 page novels.
I'm glad you enjoy the book. I'm not saying you shouldn't, but just because someone enjoys something, doesn't mean it's good. Fro Example: I like Escape from New York. I watch it every couple of years. It's is not a good movie. Fun, and an interesting perspective on gritty for the movie era.
" this has changed the way I'll read connected books or watch TV shows." it broke you. With TV, you kind of have to live in the now, because even the best show can get cancelled.

Lazy: When reading a simple umber is to difficult.
Why is asking what a specific coin is worth more difficult then asking what a specific color piece of paper is?
there are many wise men,. sadly they get vilified if their wisdom goes against a political ideology. Even when you can look at their history and see that everything they said would happen in their area of expertise, does happen.
Yes, have four coin in your pocket is cumbersome.
Will, if we went to 5 and 1s the most you should have is 9 coins.
Welcome to the 21st century, where a few coins is 'cumbersome.
You might want to go to the gym if a few coins is pushing you over you encumbrance limit.
haha I'm kidding, but cumbersome? really?

Every vending machine I have used in the last 5 years takes dollar coins.
No.

Damn straight that's an Airplane! and Pokemon reference in one post, bitches!
"the value of the money was based on its metal content."
actually.. no.
And when it was, the value of the metal was determined by the government.
You are talking about two different issues.
Bolstering the US economy is different then make money cheaper to make.
Why is lowering the cost to make a penny a flat tax?
except you can't get it's nickle cost because you would ALSO have to pay for the process of removing the non nickle.
That is classic financial ignorance.
The cost to create a coin is a one time cost for that coin, but that coin is used many times.
So a Penny cost 2 cents to make, but it's a penny at every transaction. If A penny was used only once, then you would have a point.
Interesting note, at any other time, the penny has no value. It's only at the moment of exchange.
I like how you both deposit them for cash and call them useless.
NO. no. and NO.
Removing a a coin will have global effects on the value of the dollar. It will be seen as devaluing. So, shut up.
Yes you can. For nation wide adds, say a price and then 'plus local taxes' When you are in a situation or place where you can actually make the purchase, all prices there must include local taxes. IN fact, you can say the actually price has to be twice as big as the pre tax price.

no. You have not created a 10% sales tax. You have created a larger profit margin for the shop.
This is an important distinction, in that it means they can be more competitive with wages, or other value add items.

Man. if this is the stretch people have to go through to blame Google for something, Google must be doing pretty damn good.
Seriously, this is, yet again, another NTSH article about Google. They are doing what the user opted in for them to do.
"They're fantastic writing, "
no, it isn't

not, it isn't
