Frankly, I'd feel guilty too, but apparently recruiters and middlemen don't feel guilty about scheduling interviews than rescheduling or cancelling at the last minute, wasting prospects' time and money... Maybe if some started being treated the way they treat prospective employees, they'd shape up.
Take the trip. Show up to the interview in cutoff shorts, sandals, and a wifebeater, singing union songs by Pete Seeger. You've legally fulfilled your job of showing up, but won't waste much time there. The rest of the time between flights is yours, enjoy the free trip on your future-but-not-really boss.
Problem is that it isn't just a matter of water slowly rising like in a bathtub. Rather, it's a matter of an increased risk of a storm causing a water incursion, so it will happen suddenly, as with Sandy and Katrina.
Also, I like my cold climate. A few degrees C of warming is the difference between being comfortable and feeling ill/sweating like a pig.
As far as a pension plan -- I trust an elected government more than a bunch of Wall Street hucksters. Public pension plans are a great thing, SocSec should be expanded.
Frankly, if I could just fill out a few lines on a tax return and sign on the line, I'd be happy to do so. It's a national shame how complicated the US government has made taxes. Financial management? Same. If I could enroll in a public pension plan that I didn't have to manage, I'd do so in a moment.
Home buying and partner are more personal choices, but I'm all for governments making the mundane crap that doesn't add anything good to life easier.
"A few feet", especially combined with more severe storms, is enough to flood industrial and former industrial areas and spread massive amounts of pollution. Think Hurricane Katrina times 100. But ignorami like yourself won't get it until it's too late.
There are more productive things people can do with their lives than spending time on worrying about college funds, private schools, and health insurance plans. Part of the role of a government is to remove the need for worry about mundane shit for a fee amounting to a percentage of one's income.
Betraying trust? How about... 1. Pimping facial recognition systems to authoritarian governments and law enforcement. 2. Echo "bugs" which made them always listen "by accident." 3. Coming out with cloud cameras, and no doubt leveraging this to hoover up surveillance data for posterity. Once it's in the cloud, it's never really guaranteed to be deleted.
Slashdot has been taken over by a bunch of prosperity-gospel preachin' Trumpatarians. If Bezos makes money, it must be his reward for being a good person. TESTIFY!
If you don't fear something that can result in coastal areas being flooded, then you're just ignorant. We're not only talking about nice beaches, but about industrial plants laden with toxic chemicals.
I have family in Europe who had opportunity to come to the US. They chose not to. Easier to raise a family in a European city without worrying about things like the next health insurance plan and the college fund.
I found a $130 round trip (65/way) on Eurostar's site. Flying was the same price, except it was LONGER practically speaking due to security, airport access, etc. Break even would probably be at a 3 to 4 hour train trip.
As far as congestion in the city, you have a choice whether to get off in a city-center or a suburban station with Eurostar. Unlike flying, it's not only point A to point B.
Taxes in Europe are broad-based because services like good public health care and cheap public university education are broad-based.
We're not building nuclear power plants for one reason -- ignorant cowards who don't want nukular radiashun in their backyards.
Then again, same applies to rail, even freight. People scream holy murder when infrastructure near them is expanded, and the court litigation process enables their obstructionism.
I'd like more things like a standard Golf or Polo. 100-150hp, hatchback, as bog-simple as possible. Don't care about 250hp and AWD, frankly. I want a boring, almost third-world car that will run for 15 years.
I checked the prices for the same dates you did. Came up with 100 pounds ($125-$130) for the flights, $65 each way ($130) for rail, London-Paris. Seems like you're the one who's lying.
Blah, blah, blah, fun to watch you blabbering about the elites. At least if you end up in a city center, you can easily catch continuing transportation to where you're going. Or you can be picked up at an intermediate suburban station if you're interested, Eurostar has several.
Americans aren't smart at all... their tax money is squandered on military and law enforcement and their contractor parasites. The only people who benefit are cops, military, and the wealthy contractors who supply them. Talking about trickle-up to the elites, there you have it.

This is why you buy a duplex:
(1) Often cheaper than a single-family.
(2) The tenant next to you (ATM on the hoof) pays your taxes and mortgage.

If the ecahhhhhhnammmmy is based on destroying the Earth and changing it to be more hostile to humans, let it burn to the ground.

Stadium what? The best shows are at smaller venues like bars and community theaters.

A small screen should satisfy the letter of the nanny-law about backup cameras. I think some of the system put in place have 3" screens in the mirror.
If you want to pay the artists, go to their concerts -- don't give most of the money to the middlemen and assorted pimps.

Why bother streaming when it's available commercial-free in a harbor for rogue sailors?

Translation: 170 employees out of 250 told him to take his idea and get buggered.
Yep, I'm all for ignorant global warming deniers like yourself getting a jackboot to the kisser and being ground into dust.

Most cars will work if you replace the telematics antenna with a dummy load. Remember, they still need to be drivable in areas with no cell service.

The money is being used for ALL students going forward, not just the current cohort.
