This is not about H1-B
"The exemptions sought would cover workers with visas sponsored by U.S.-based companies and students with ones obtained via a U.S.-based school."
It is right in the summary....
I guess I can't speak for those areas. However, in Chicago, the utility charges charges us for distribution fees and a seperate line for kWh usage. You are even able to choose an electricity supplier who is different from your distributor.
In these places where PV is popular, would you essentially just become your own supplier yet still pay the power company for distribution? I don't see this as being an obstacle which cannot be overcome.
Yeah, people are free to associate with whomever they want. Businesses, however, are not people. We as society have set up laws that dictate how businesses need to operate. They do not enjoy all the same freedoms as individuals.
The demand for illegal weaponry is not as great as the demand for controlled substances. Yes, there is no doubt criminal organizations would move to other pursuits, but they would be less profitable pursuits.
Also, lets acknowledge the demand for illegal weaponry is already being met by criminal organizations. If you dropped the regulations on controlled substances, some of the existing organizations would try and become legit (we saw this during prohibition). Others would be forced into an already crowded market for dealing controlled arms.
Please, this is not a recent phenomenon, schools have never been a place full of civil liberties. Corporal punishment in public schools existed for quite some time. Schools have the ability to hold kids against their will (detentions), some places you can get arrested for truancy, there has never been due process in doling out these punishments either.
I am sure you could find a large amount of people who believe schools these days don't have enough power to infringe on student's rights and that's why "this generation" is the worst of them yet.
I wasn't trying to apply morality to the situationt. From my perspective, there is nothing inherently wrong with pro-west leaders or expanding NATO, etc. I was just trying to convey how this might be viewed as provocative from Putin's perspective. The Ukrainian People have every right to pursue whatever political course they desire, if they seek US or NATO help, the involved parties need to acknowledge the potential affects on the region. That is all I am saying.
I don't really view this as troll. Certainly Russia has its share of responsibility, however, since the fall of the Soviet Union. The "West" has been deliberately acting in a way that would seem provocative from a Russian perspective. We keep adding NATO member closer to Russia's borders, despite the promises we made to Russia after the fall. We've expanded missile defense equipment to many of these countries. We have NGOs working on our behalf trying to establish pro-West leaders in the Ukraine, Imagine how the US would feel if Russia was trying to put a pro-Russian candidate in Mexico?
Because the market cannot correct this itself, this is exactly the thing that requires government intervention.
If I hadn't already commented, I'd mod this up. Not only is this a good spot for government intervention but it is an acceptable place. Providing electronic ways to transfer value is no different than creating physical dollars for transactions.
The contracts also typically require you charge the same price for goods whether it be paid for by cash or credit. The cashback you get from your credit card at least partially comes from the fees the credit card provider charges. Most vendors already have their prices higher to cover the CC transaction costs
A better argument might be is that it is a big economic inefficiency in the market to have a 3% transaction cost on purchases. The Canadian government is trying to remove this inefficiency.
If at the pump you had the choice between a global list of gasoline suppliers then yes, all prices would be very similar. Since in a town you only have the choice between a couple local suppliers prices vary.
Hashing and publishing the hash of original document scan would allow others to verify that their copy is the same as the original. The usual issues with hash collisions apply of course.

Luckily, just today we had a story about a $400 billion govt boondoggle

Iran was a democracy.. until, a country that tries to build democracies decided to topple that one.

It is unlikely that a "human rights lawyer" would be handling a book deal. That is if I can trust the summary, I did not read the article.

Sticking forks in others' eyes is a great way to get return customers in the eye care industry!
Gasoline is not oil. When people buy oil it is at the global market. When you buy gasoline, it is priced at your local market.

So the same logic should apply to video games correct? I should be able to resell a copy I purchased off Steam?
