You also get the problem where people will start companies with other employees that are ride or die because they had significant equity in the company. Once you approach anything like Amazon's size, the potential equity people can get has been severely diminished.
You also have a lot of founders who get to that position are workaholics who love focusing on their building empire. For them, it is hard to imagine how people wouldn't want to dedicate everything to building an empire like they do.
I have never heard of this happening in the USA. The closest I've heard of is some states enforcing grandparents' rights to visit their grandchildren, but I've never heard of any American government entity forcing children to take care of their parents.
Prisons are big business.
Not the USA, but several countries including China make elderly care the legal responsibility of their children.
I'm going to use your car analogy, but tweak it.
People are looking to sell their car and buy a new one. One car acts like their old car; it has automatic transmission and there is a network of mechanics to take the car to in case something breaks.
The other car has a manual transmission. The car requires regular maintenance to do done by the owner like weekly tuning of the timing belt. There aren't mechanics, but car clubs where people will give you advice on how to fix your car.
There would be no merit at all.
I'm sure Zelenskyy would be more than happy to host NATO troops in Ukraine; it is a decision of NATO nations to not deploy to Ukraine.
If NATO troops were not invited, that would likely trigger a wider war. It would also mean that the Ukrainian government becomes a NATO problem; NATO isn't as interested in nation building since Afghanistan.
Yes. Democrats voted for Obama in 2008 and he presented himself as more progressive than Hilary.
Yeah, I'm not happy about that.
