That’s exactly what I’m suggesting.

If fewer people vote, it often favors the republicans. When more people vote it goes the other way. If it’s 60:40 and 100 people vote that’s 20 people. If it’s a thousand it’s 200 more people. I have a strong suspicion that the Republican party has been cheating for a long time which is why they claim the democrats have to be when they win. They always tell on themselves.

Because democrat voters out number Republican voters. If you increase the votes you increase the democrat votes by nature of increasing the number of votes collected. This isn’t factoring secondaries like demographics.

Insurance risk pools are by states because insurance is regulated that way. However State Farm is being investigated for trying to blend state risk pools and increasing rates going against the data.

You’re awfully loud to be this wrong. Look at Ukraine, Slovenia, Pakistan, Uganda, Guatemala and more. All of these places have elected celebrities and or comedians to high political office. It is not strictly an American thing.

YSK Maduro was fully impeached by the Venezuelan version of Congress and he used his military power to just stay in office and further silence dissent. Your post is either ill informed at best or at worst propaganda. The US does a lot of terrible things and this likely not the way or time to do this. 20-25% of Venezuelans have left and those were the ones with the will or luck to do so. Imagine how many others want to leave. Of the 75-80% of the population maybe support has grown just using math of the opposers leaving. Those people probably want to go back to their country if it were in a state to return to.

This is not limiting mid-range laptops. This is making more low-range laptops. Just because you’re making more lower tiered laptops doesn’t mean the midrange adjusts as mid-range is based on specs/performance. This is basic taxonomy.

The average laptop produced by these 2 manufacturers will see a decrease in specs.

You are right. It’s why many cities will release neutered feral cats to handle large rat populations.

140k is now the poverty line. 70k ain’t cutting it for a family of 4. Those aren’t “great” jobs

Yes. The people saying no are no longer temporarily embarrassed millionaires but temporarily embarrassed middle class. Have or have not, and 140k is have not given inflation, healthcare, education, food, rent/mortgage, energy etc.

You’re thinking of Rodney King. Completely different. Mark Fuhrman committed perjury and tampered with evidence.
