tax the fuck out of them, make the cayman islands tax loophole illegal.
if the C-suite doesn't like it they can move to China or Russia and deal with that government.

anything national security related stays also, fuck this Nippon US steel deal, fuck not saving Intel as a chip manufacturer, straight up nationalize them if needed just copy what China is doing and just reverse the famous quote

"They call it Communism in China, but I think they just call whatever works, Communism."

Drones do sound annoying as hell, like angry giant bugs

But apparently if you are in a war zone like Ukraine, that noise can also be terrifying, because it might be the last thing you hear

Can't disagree with that part. Gotta have it to build the new Liberty class.

Why do authorities always let the public know when a terrorist "acted alone"? Why is that important? And what does it even mean to say they acted alone, if while acting alone they declare loyalty to other terrorists who do the exact same things, for the exact same reasons?

The unabomber acted alone. Radical islamist who hates what they deem to be decadent western culture #346475373 isn't exactly alone, ya know?

Also happy new year everyone!

If Jeremy Irons had acted alone in Die Hard 3 he wouldn't have gotten very far at all, despite the gu-gu-gu-gullibility of the New York Police Department.

I hope this helps.

The question you're really asking is about individual due process though.

William Blackstone was a titan.
