S. 1747 (112th): Computer Professionals Update Act Introduced: Oct 20, 2011 (112th Congress, 2011–2013) Status: Died (Referred to Committee) in a previous session of Congress
Actually that is not what it said at all. They said that:
it's not the use of the gendered pronoun that's at issue (that's just sloppy), but rather the insistence that pronouns should in fact be gendered.
So it was not that they had a masculine pronoun, but that the developer did not believe in gender neutral. It could have been feminine or masculine, the company did not care, in fact they specifically state that it was not the issue..
So they are required to continue donating their time and energy from the start to entirety just because they accepted sponsorship for a period of time?
How does it not count as free? You can have ads that dont target you, or get any of your information. It could also be micro transactions. Both allow the app to be free while making money on the other side.
How is it taken care of in tax tables? you only dont pay taxes on your standard dedication and the other dedications you are allowed. Tax tables just give you a % you owe, and it has more to do with being progressive then anything else.
All people are different, so if it works for people it should work for corps.
Did you read the parent to see what argument I was making? No, I didnt think so. The argument is great in terms of what society brings. Society gives a lot of things that would otherwise be unavailable.
In both cases someone else ownss the fruits of your labor, either a corporation or the government. The government is typically the one that is supposed to have your best interest. A corp just cares how much of your labor it can steal and how little service it can provide.
I pay the portion of it used to make the food when I go to the deli. It is a line item directly related to the cost of the good.
Actually your statement is the intentionally dishonest one. My statement is to counter that SOCIETY does not provide anything.
No, society does not give me anything
It does. It provides a portion of the cost for those services. Without society providing those extra monies you probably would not have those services.
That is not creating a job. That is changing the type of way the job is done. The job is still there, they are just using robots to perform that job. Removing the robot does not create a new job, just changes who does it.
Companies do not create jobs, demand for goods creates jobs, companies fulfill that role of producing. If that company was not there the job would still be there. That is a myth created by the right.
Mainly the multinational wall street. When people were more concerned with long term investments, and not make a buck in 1 second investment we have now , it was not a problem
There is no reasonable parallel there. Businesses get to deduct the things they need to operate, including their properties, their payroll, all their expenses. Individuals dont. The personal dedication is not "generous" when you consider the different things. Shoot the dedication would not would not allow you to pay for a single bedroom apartment in any city in the US.

You do realize that died right?

That is not what they stated. In addition using they/their in a singular fashion is considered to be improper use by many in grammar.
Actually that is not what it said at all. They said that :

So it was not that they had a masculine pronoun, but that the developer did not believe in gender neutral. It could have been feminine or masculine, the company did not care, in fact they specifically state that it was not the issue..
So you are proud to do buisness with them why? Because their logic is that if you use any gender specific pronouns you are, by default, misogynistic?
So they are required to continue donating their time and energy from the start to entirety just because they accepted sponsorship for a period of time?
I am pretty sure that everything was deleted on a FACTORY RESET.
how does transactions for extras make the base app not free?
It won because of p0rn
The app is still free, it does not mean you cannot do other things with the app that may come at a cost.
How does it not count as free? You can have ads that dont target you, or get any of your information. It could also be micro transactions. Both allow the app to be free while making money on the other side.
The statement was accumulate wealth, not that it does not generate more wealth.
How is it taken care of in tax tables? you only dont pay taxes on your standard dedication and the other dedications you are allowed. Tax tables just give you a % you owe, and it has more to do with being progressive then anything else.

It is not fully paid by him. His argument was that society provided him nothing. Did you even read the parent post?
I pay the portion of it used to make the food when I go to the deli. It is a line item directly related to the cost of the good.

However then you also need to get rid of special tax breaks that only those owners can take advantage of.
What does being happy about it, and being correct about it have to do with each other?
So you have a fire department that protects your house, do you pay the full cost of the fire house and the full pay of the firemen?
Do you pay the full costs for the roads you travel on?
When you go to the deli or the auto mechanic you pay the full cost of the goods you buy, with government services you do not.
Companies do not create jobs, demand for goods creates jobs, companies fulfill that role of producing. If that company was not there the job would still be there. That is a myth created by the right.

What you value something at does not equal what said thing costs to produce.
Wait, if people dont accumulate wealth what is that money sitting in my bank? how about Gate's Billions of dollars of wealth?
