For those not from Kansas City. Leawood is basically a very rich strip of land between the Missouri/Kansas border and the 'Kansas City Country Club'.
Mansions, old big money, absolutely no business. Sticks so far up their butts, they have to get splinters in their esophagus.
For the bay area the analogous city(s) would be 'Pacifica', maybe 'Half Moon Bay'. Run the numbers on those two.
KC has been calling itself the 'Silicon Prairie' for decades. It's still deluded bullshit.
Also don't look at the local government, terrible, 1% gross income tax. It's like they are trying to drive away business. Slowly going the way of eastern cities, will end up like Baltimore unless something changes.
Profit motive is less cost than all the powerful peoples idiot nieces/nephews that come with state control.
Don't look at theory, look at history. State run programs suck. Spreading the pork to every single congressional district is not the way to build rockets.
People make livings in boiler rooms. Not good livings, but they typically made a bunch of bad decisions that put them in the boiler room chair in the first place. It can be their best alternative.
I once worked on software used to script calls and collect data. It was a shit job, but I wasn't above it.
Ford 500s were supposed to have 500 ponies (back in the day). Other end of the market vs a Fiat 500, which had 2 gerbils (one of which was dead) for power.

There are no low income residents in SF. The ones complaining are trust fund kids (of all ages) whose trust fund no longer pays SF rent.
GP has it right, if they buses were contracted from SF's city buses the government would love it.
Let me guess. You've never filed a complaint with uncle Charlie?
Any of them less than $1k. Which is 90% of the market.
Better find your high school teacher and apologize.
The right of the people shall not be infringed.
If they had meant militia they would have written militia. They clearly knew the word, having used it earlier in the sentence.
Don't know why I'm posting this, you clearly already know you are wrong, but don't care. Just repeating the derp.
In many states it's any tree or post painted with a band the same yellow as the standard 'no trespassing' sign.
Purple is news to me.
You hate harley riders (fags) as well?
Taking a 4 year old to the gun range on the same day the 'bunched panty brigade' were protesting.
When he told them they would get his AIR-15 from his 'cold dead hands' I had to laugh.
They look at you like a nut when you show up with a 10 gauge though.
There are no commercial satellite launches? You're just wrong.

Who is confused? American states are not sovereign, neither are EU members.
It's pure bullshit to say that buying _all_ the leftover bonds at _all_ the auctions is 'quantitative easing'.
It's shill bidding, plane and simple. There is no 'market rate' for US bonds as there is no effective market.

You share bandwidth with your neighbor.
Are you OK with him setting his torrent traffic priority to 1? Even if it interferes with your VOIP and gaming?
If you want guaranteed bandwidth to a major connection point it will cost you a little more than a consumer grade connection.
No reasonable definition of net neutrality makes QoS illegal.
The fact on the ground is some packets do get priority.
Do you even think it's reasonable to prioritize your torrent packets the same as your neighbors VOIP traffic?
When did /. have competent editors?
Put the government in charge of QoS priority decisions at the ISP level. What could go wrong?
I'm just glad we can run torrents on any port. So they can play whack a mole.
Strong encryption everywhere fixes this.
For what?
Employers don't make money from 1 week employees.
US bond sales haven't covered the issue amounts in a decade. The US fed buys the surplus bonds with printed money.
_Reported_ inflation has been near zero for decades.
In other words; European nations aren't sovereign.
They print money and devalue the rest.
Spending has nothing to do with tax receipts. It's just a fact.
Even people bad a math quit those jobs in a week, maybe two if they are really tards.
If such a job existed it would have no employees, the employer would be broke.
You are most likely referring to pure commish type work. which isn't profitable for most, but for sales weasels it is.
Drone hobbyists did fine for decades. It's just this CB like craze for quads that brought millions of newbees in.
If they had a million new, stupid people flying high powered model rockets, there would already have been thousands of deaths.
