Pre-86 is legal for people without FFLs.
I believe the Patriot Act was Instant Gratification based upon Fear as an Example.
But it’s almost always better to err on the side of no regulation and let people organizes themselves privately
Seems like the FFL is giving up a lot of rights also. I mean you get my point. People may not agree but I am not in favor of licensing or background checks generally.
The patriot act was awful. 10/10 would not endorse.
It seemed like a good idea at the time for many though!
Unfortunately
I mean, you're a patriot right?
They did the same thing with undermining the message behind the net neutrality deal.
"Save The Puppies" could just be Creative Marketing?
"You don't have to worry if you have nothing to hide." - Obummer.
"Like your Doctor, keep your Doctor"?
I was against net neutrality. And my Facebook friends hated me
I'm from the Government and I'm here to Help!
Do you want to go on Jerry Springer with me?
It's an all paid trip!
Politicians are such scammers. “My job is to make up rules I don’t follow”
Yepper. They make up rules you want, but they're 100% above the law themselves.
As much as they say they're not.
Do you know that Congress is exempt from the ADA (Act)?
Yeah that is crazy
I'm not complaining. Tenure is a Sweet Deal.
I think tenure and subsidized loans have turned university into a pyramid scheme.
Off topic 😂
Maybe if your Phd is in Lesbian Dance Theory?
Agreed. I mean our GTAs went on strike once and I spoke with some of them. The Econ, computer science and math GTAs all got paid well. It was other departments that suffered.
That may be a Million Dollar Question. How does one place a Value on Labor?
Market prices are the convergence of all opinions on that very question.
So imo it’s been sufficiently answered. But I guess the GTAs disagreed.
If that is True? What is the need for a Minimum Wage?
Makes people feel better. Minimum wage leads to unemployment and/or smaller job markets. There are a couple studies contesting this but they are disingenuous. The only reason economist are not unanimous as they used to be is because they realized that they were funded by politicians and that being outspoken made them less likely to get fundings as well as disliked by other campus colleagues.
Minimum wage is one of the most institutionally racist policies we have today. Pricing floors were first implemented to exclude black job seekers from undercutting white job seekers in bids for work.
You have a whole lot there!
I mean it’s definitely something which can be verified, it’s just hard to cut past the establishments propaganda. If you look at places like Seattle though, everyone agreed there was an increase in the velocity of money. IE Inflation
It’s taboo to go against it and economist are all about incentives. Why argue over this one part when it’s just a small negative effect.
I didn't State a Quality only Quantity!
😂 fair enough
Asking Questions is an Occupational Hazard for me!
minimum wage is a bs trap and a myth solution to a problem. Living wage varies location to location. We need to figure ways to increase peoples market value.
Asking questions is a sign of intelligence.
