The rent should be paid to the country that registered the orbital position. So for example company X wants to launch a geostationary satellite. They have to go to their government, and apply for an orbital slot. The government then registers that slot with the United Nations, and begins charging the company rent. The rent could then either stay with the government, or go to the United nations.
It's not that they don't want to admit it, they are just happy about it. Someone who just spent some $ for his internet spaceship is much more likely to be an idiot that flies around without support. So they make for some mighty fine killmails.
Well that just opens up many new questions. Is it before or after they've committed their crimes against humanity?
If it's after, it becomes a discussion about capital punishment and justifiable murder.
And if it's before it becomes a discussion about free will. Are their future actions set in stone? If they are, then so is your decision to sacrifice/not sacrifice them. And if they're not then you're just killing an innocent man for something they might do.
But how can you benefit from the value of that stock? The only way is if a person is willing to actually give you the 2.2 billion, which comes from outside the system, and you take it - also outside the system. All of the money stays outside the market.
I have a good new business plan. Why don't I open a corporation in a state that doesn't have corporate taxes, and just 'cooperate' with my local store. When customers come into the store, they are just ordering things from my out-of-state corporation, which instantly buys the items from the store and at the same times uses the store as a delivery service for the 10m or so from the place where the item is stored to the counter. There you go - my corporation is not required to collect sales tax since the customers are from another state, and the same goes for the store.
But how do you define that group? Are the people who work completely legal jobs for them part of the group? How about their families? Or a person that's friends with one member of the group and sometimes visits him at his place of 'work'?
And another thing, which groups will share this collective responsibility? If a part of a political party commits crimes, does the whole party bear the legal responsibility for them? Or a corporation?
If a corporation commits those crimes, can it's employees be charged under RICO? Since theft, fraud and money laundering sounds a lot like banks and 99% of Wall Street.
Why not make the churches change the word they use? If they want to differentiate the people THEY 'properly' marry they can use any other word they like, but why should people that don't get married in churches (atheists do exist you know) suddenly no longer be considered married?
Or they could sell it as 'material x IN EARTH ORBIT'. Once space mining is proven to be possible, I'm guessing there is going to be a sharp rise in the demand for future mine components already in space.
Germany had a working industry. If US got into a protracted war against a major power now, they would soon be unable to replace their losses due to a shortage of just about everything. Just think how easy it would be to just sink any oil tankers or cargo ships heading toward them.
And don't let them try dwarf fortress, or they will soon be making water powered computers that catapult living (initially) kittens at invading armies.
How about not basing it directly on the stock price, but on an separate appraisal of his effect on the company?
Let's say that 2 years after the CEO steps down the board reviews the effects of his decisions on the company (as independently from new leadership as possible) and award the bonus then? For example a CEO that made record profits during his time on the job, but left the company completely unprepared for the future can expect no bonus.
The CEOs PAY (salary) isn't affected. The bonus is an additional amount that reflects that they did a good job. So how can you measure that? Stock prices can often be inflated, especially of a company wants them to be (inflated numbers, press releases about brand new products that may never happen).
BTW is your pay truly only dependent on your performance? If your CEO drives your company into bankruptcy do you thing you'll be getting a bonus? Or even your last few paychecks?
He's not being penalized. He got his bonus when he stepped down. Any additional bonuses were contingent on the company continuing to do well.
Right now the CEO doesn't care what happens to the company once they leave. So there is no incentive to either ensure long term growth or even to stay in the company for the entire duration of their contract, if an early dismissal means they can get their bonus and disappear before shit hits the fan.
Why not treat the bonus as a BONUS. Something they might earn if they do an above average job - meaning that the company survives and thrives in the future. Isn't that what being the CEO is all about?
Don't link their entire bonus to the situation when they leave the company. Instead give them a small percentage then, and the rest in stock options that they can't use for a few years.
If the company does well in the future, then they get their bonus. If it fails then they don't.
That's going to hurt the throughput of the intersection. Imagine waiting 2 seconds after the car in front of you moves. Then multiply this by the number of cars waiting for at the red light.

But in the short term that leaves a lot of people unable to afford their education. So they can just go and live on minimum wage right?

Ownership can be easily resolved.
Start charging 'rent' for satellite positions in orbit. You can bet companies will start begging people to take their broken hardware.
Good idea but Apple would never allow it.
Just think how hard it would be to convince people to buy the new and 'vastly' improved model every 6 months.

Then why not make the original game 10$ cheaper, but disable the MP until the player pays an extra fee?

Fair share : As much as they would pay now, if they didn't have hordes of tax attorneys to help them avoid paying taxes.

The money does not stay in the stock market though. The person(s) who owned the company that did the IPO takes it.
The ones taking the test or the ones grading it?

Who destroyed her life? The person who she gave a blowjob, or the people who revealed it to the world?

If that happens the company that owns the 'mine' will say how sorry they are and pay you a few yuan. Just think about BP.
