    The enforced sadness of your own existence is painful from here, so you should really work on that. Otherwise you know, people do have careers with multiple jobs in multiple industries. I have lived more of life than you can possibly imagine, and gained more experience and education in a variety of fields than the newer crowds that gather here can comprehend. I can't help how fucking stupid people are but when they seek to injure others or cause others harm from their retarded beliefs and behaviors, well, then my favorite thing is to ensure they personally get to experience the results. That was the first job.

    Suppliers pay Walmart for shelf space for greater retail distribution, they own items on shelves until purchased by customers then Walmart uses EDI systems to purchase from supplier and pocket revenue difference.

    Learn to read better. The economic conditions required for large tractor trailer style trucks to be the best options must be satisfied or there are cheaper options. They can be used but it is not the most efficient cost effective option, and in business controllable costs must be minimized or you will not last long.

    Large capacity trucks require large service areas with repeating need up to capacity or smaller modes are cheaper. Distribution centers and cross-docking stations are required before trucks can be loaded for deliveries, and the path for delivery is managed carefully to coordinate with loading. Using LTL wastes space and is only effective in narrow circumstances for perishable goods, etc. Better then to use vans and cars for delivery in short trips to minimize total costs.

    Walmart has money to burn because they don't actually buy inventory until its sold at the register/cart level. Every other business faces requirement for predictable delivery on capital equipment purchases, largely because it all must be put into use quickly to break even as an option to better than the alternatives.

    Pack it up and send it all to Germany and Canada, the US just killed its entire research capacity. Any project left there is effectively abandoned now. Scientists and researchers can travel easily, so this is really retarded politicians killing your economic future for a stupid game. 20 years ago, who would have thought the end of US power would come so quickly?

  14. That is what the US needs to correct the existing power imbalance. People are the most important resource, and actions against people must have consequences in law or beyond it when corruption prevents equity from being achieved through the courts. That is the foundation of civilization itself and failing it starts the nose dive for death of any empire or nation.

  15. There are existing and enforced arms treaties dealing with unsupervised munitions. Land mines and cluster bombs are still the greater danger due to sheer quantity in active use today, deployed in past decades, and stockpiled for decades of future use. All of the countries implied in your list support those except for the US on cluster bombs because the have so many from older stockpiles. It should stop all use as there are better alternatives that don't kill indiscriminately after hostilities end.

    Tesla can dilute the stock, but that has a direct impact on the price, and given its existing price is based on enthusiasm more than financial merits there is a HUGE question of how stock holders would react to that. Would it prompt a large sell-off? Would it reduce future markets?

    There is a difference between making a profit and investing it (what Amazon actually did) and not generating adequate revenue to cover costs even before research (what Tesla is doing now), especially while existing loans enter repayment and $2 billion more will as well by the end of the quarter. Glossing over the behavioral basis of TSLA stock prices just shows that you don't understand investments in any real sense.

  18. Why are you shilling for Yandex, a Russian search engine with close ties to the Russian state-security services? Do you need more English input for your rant databases? They are out of date.

    However, Wikipedia does have legitimacy problems for the information it distributes, and doesn't belong in the top 10 of any search result that excludes "wikipedia". Britannica is superior in writing clarity, actual practical reliability, and every other metric that isn't an arbitrary one including obscure articles on yak variants as part of a generalized statistical measure.

  21. You mean a private company isn't regulated by the state to act against its interests when there is no actual reason to change anything, but that somehow makes you complain.... That isn't grounds for anything, but if you as a consumer choose to change your business interactions you can do that freely. The rest of us will just see your shallow assessment as a sign that some Ivans need to find real jobs to get off the Russian teat.
