    Or maybe employers should just have to pay in cash, because until I have something in my hand that I can spend I really haven't been paid yet have I? Any possession or asset is only theoretical until you have physical control on it till then you were dependent upon the mercy of other people to access its potential value. Since true ownership is a measure of direct control, it's not yours unless anybody else's opinion or policies defer to you.

    Wrong is that people are accepting hearsay as fact without directly experimenting to test things for their own understanding and direct observation. people have forgotten but no peace and remembrance Shannon should ever be accepted as fact until you have personally approved it through direct experimentation. That's basic personal responsibility.

    It won't be an effective deterrent anyway. The greater risk the greater the glory , the greater the motivation to take the risk. And the greater the payout for the person who take that risk and is successful. The quickest way to advertise and motivate people to rise to the challenge is to tell them they can't, and show them someone else who failed in order to learn from their mistakes.

    as human beings it is their job to question any orders and make sure they agree with them and understand the implications or refuse to comply until that information is produced. That's the biggest lie that the military ever sold people was that you're not responsible for your own actions as long as someone else is paying and ordering you to do so. It is individuals refusing to comply that is our last defense against evil

    China doesn't need apple, but apple wants a chance to drain China economic resources into apples international holding s. All companies are clamoring to do business with China because they are worried that China well leave them behind. I just can't stand the idea of a country that is doing economically well not funneling it into their bank accounts. U.s. is huge you think there's plenty enough money to be made here why do they even need to go to China. Apple is just being greedy .they already make enough to keep the lights on and their homes and food on their table. They don't actually need any more money or influence. Anything more than make will just be wasted on things other than making sure people have what they need.

    If this boy is wise, you will use that money to purchase a conservatively sized home with a decent size yard and no homeowners association bindings, and put the rest in a trust will invest that money and use it to pay the yearly taxes.
