You say that like it's a defense though.

Yeah they're paying the people who make the product we sell so little that they don't even get enough money in a paycheck to have it be worth sending them a paycheck!!

How? Special back door secret deals for one and only one company is the definition of anticompetitive.

Competition is defined as more than one lol

Edit: I'm special, I am first place! But if you knew it was 1st place of one... I sure hope you think me as noncompetitive....🤣 It's strange to me to think I'm competitive if I have no competitors.

" crypto is mostly something they just hope to resell later to a higher bidder"

Unfortunately this is not true. It was getting used for money laundering, which is not reselling to the highest bidder. The proof is in the fact that they payed the fine.

Otherwise what was the fine for?

Yeah use those "to big to fail' having banks be integral to the system is a definition to first World. Not sure that's the dis you hoped it to be. Haha, you don't have banks too big to be capitalist they have to be socialized....

I will say that unlike the horse and buggymakers or the barrel makers or the candlestick makers who have all lost their jobs I do admit...

None of those are as inherently human as sexuality is.

Capitalism makes a great cell phone. Capitalism is terrible when it takes precedent over humans and people.

Still have stacks of batteries for my V10 and v20. I thought it would be a deal-breaker too but it's not as bad as I thought. The huge battery they put in the v60s really been lasting. I do admit I prefer to wirelessly charge slowly which possibly helps.

I still have my V10 and v20. My v60 is better though. Definitely some trade-offs but I will argue that v60 is better

When a phone is sold the unique number is submitted. This number is going to come from authorized dealer or an unauthorized dealer.

If a dealer in California submits that IME number, then they can differentiate that from a dealer in Mexico.

The short version is that USA was more left than all EU members states on abortion -

Sadly that WAS true. However I live in California and it still is true.

Left here in California AKA me is actually left for the European Union too. That's why your original comment struck me as weird it's because for me and my state which is bigger than many European countries in both size and economic might is as left as the European Union.

I do not believe the overton window shift applies to California only the USA

I was surprised to find out that abortion pre Rove versus Wade decision in the United States abortion was much more accessible than it was in the European Union.

Generally shifted to the left the overton window but not always.

For example, abortion.
