Because Disney already pays for the connection to their ISP - they have paid for their packets to be transmitted to you. Why should they pay more on the bias of their content?
If I send a letter, the postal service doesn't charge me more based on what is said in the letter - they just transport it.
If you define "average education performance" as "those people who could afford education, and ignoring all the people who never got an education", then sure. It's easy to point at an elite system being opened to all and have it decline.
Also, they should post conflicting versions of stories and events to help readers make better informed decisions as to whether or not a news item is believable.
No. Too many people believe in the argument to the middle fallacy as it is. Just because someone believes the earth is flat doesn't mean we need to give them equal time/screen space.
So, when these politicians start getting spammed with emails full of "terrorist content", are they going to report to have themselves locked up? What, there's a "legitimate reason" exclusion that will cover them?
And no one was surprised when they wrote themselves out of the law that covers everyone else.
If you are doing your retraining/relearning on your own time/dime, then you might want to reconsider your job compensation. I usually spend about 2 hrs/day making sure I'm up to date on current technologies, or training on new programs coming into our organization.
You aren't alone. I thought the realtors were going to stroke out when I started reading the contract instead of just signing it. They were quick to offer to explain it to me, then seemed a little more nervous when I told them that it wasn't a problem, I used to work for the state bar, I can read legalese just fine.
I found a few things that seemed strange, got some language changed and a full repair to the AC done by them before anything was signed.
More people should read their contracts over before signing. But most people don't have the reading comprehension.
The Invisible Hand of the market clearly lead to this. People must've been paying too little for the services provided, so the market has self corrected and brought everyone in line. If Charter is charging too much, then people will move to a competing product, right?
What? There is no competition? Impossible. Everyone knows that the market encourages competition and companies to work for the good of the people, not to collude in order to increase their own bottom line.
Barriers to entry? Listen, son, if you want to get ahead in the world, you need to pull yourself up by your boot straps, overcome the paid for barriers that other ISPs have put in place, and create a multi-million dollar infrastructure by hand. Go ahead, all you need is guts and determination!
Segregated? No, people conservative enough to believe this kind of stuff just go straight to not having non-whites in the military at all (after all, they are inferior races, right?). Same with homosexuals and women. Gotta maintain that all white, straight, male military - it's the only proven force. Can't be experimenting./s
Exactly. I mean, the Germans had massive communication networks spread over the world, using several competing systems of encryption that virtually everyone was using....oh wait..
That is a bad argument also. Diminishing returns on increasing wealth doesn't trigger until a certain threshold is reached - a dollar to someone who has ten dollars is just as important as a dollar to someone who only has one dollar. That is why things like "poverty line" and "minimum standards" exist.
So you would need to establish the threshold at which the diminishing returns begin. It would be heavily dependent on area, but assume that it would be enough money to cover basic necessities - food, rent, transportation, etc. It may also depend on social situation - a person supporting a family would need to make more to meet the minimum standard then a person alone. A two income family dropping to one income (unemployement, accident, etc.) would suddenly increase the value of each dollar the single earner is now earning.
So, if anything, the bottom is more incentivized, not less.

Since Pai literally said that he would not be taking public comment into consideration, we kinda know that for a fact.
There's a subtle difference between "doesn't benefit" and "does provable, verifiable harm".

Ah, you can still get a refund. Please call their helpful support center. Your wait time is (blank) hours.
I had a teacher that insisted that we "shouldn't worry about memory bloat, because memory is so cheap".
That was when I realized the difference between teachers who only worked in academia, vs those with real world experience.
Yep, totally. Because walking is the only solution to lose weight.
(Heads to the pool)
Totally the only solution.

Did you just compare reading a terrorist manifesto to watching child porn? Or reading about the history of Islam?
What you are missing is an understanding of how broad a term like "terrorist material" can end up being.
So, when these politicians start getting spammed with emails full of "terrorist content", are they going to report to have themselves locked up? What, there's a "legitimate reason" exclusion that will cover them?

I'm pretty sure "competing" is not something they are interested in - hence the merging of companies.

It wasn't that long ago that homosexuality was considered a mental disorder.
Or that being black meant you had a lower IQ.
Or that being a woman meant you were inferior in every way to men.
Your choice of posting as AC suggests you don't have the fortitude to stand behind your post.
Also the same argument used to try and keep homosexuals out. It's almost like people who think along these lines are very original, are they?
If their uncorrected vision is so bad they would be a liability I don't think they would be allowed to serve.
You would be incorrect in thinking so. I served with people who could not have read a card they were holding at arms length, without their glasses.
Exactly. I mean, the Germans had massive communication networks spread over the world, using several competing systems of encryption that virtually everyone was using....oh wait..
Marketing - "How do we monetize this...."
Engineers - "You mean after we fix it?"
Marketing just begins laughing - "Only if it get more money then leaving it in and marketing it as a feature"
But how will we have the best CEOs if we punish them for childish pranks?

Instead Quintillionaires would hire prostitutes to do that for them.
So, still bit jobs for shitty holes in the wall.
