Sales for campaign funding when?

Aside the lowbrow ontology refusing the fart-sniffing, there's also a locational discontinuity between clone and original. You'd have to move the original to a similar location while they're asleep, and make sure nothing recorded this, to finish establishing ambiguity.

"If factories are cheaper than African slaves, then I'm 100% for abolition." The Chinese workers prevent the robots from being developed enough to become cheaper than them, because labor-saving technology is easier than full automation and the startup costs of a new factory are increasingly...

The people who worked there stuck in a place with nowhere else to work. And it was mostly automotive supply chain, IIRC, not textiles. 'Least from my position in Michigan, where The Detroit happened. Silicon Valley is almost purely software at this point, the top-tier semiconductor...

Lobotomies got a Nobel prize, such credentialism is utter fucking horseshit. The local factories physically cannot spring back up overnight. A parasitic ultra-minority of corporate managers and their shareholders gained that money, at the expense of the general public who used to get the wages...

On this front, it's not quite as bad as you make it out to be because it oxidizes quickly enough to form a solid layer. Can also be done to steel by adding magnesium, resulting in very even rust protecting the vast majority of the metal.

Yeah, most of the heavy-lifting on tax avoidance is in corporations and securities, which has a strong selection bias against the top "income earners" since capital gains and income under management are separate.

There's a good bit of support for psychological factors having large genetic drives that does give some credence to the existence of a "natural underclass", but the way the crime rates change over time is pretty obviously environmental in nature. There wasn't exactly a genocide against inner...

It's by far the simplest way to keep taxes from fucking with people at the bottom while using them a cudgel to the consolidation process. The critical detail of implementation is that the brackets are consecutive, making it diminishing returns rather than making it actively detrimental to get...

The Nazis were vigorously against Global Revolutionary Socialists, yet they went pretty damned hard on dragging corporations under the party's thumb, handouts for workers, and general autistic central planning. They were not hardline "abolish all property" Marxists, but their economic policies...

Does have the caveat that ammo is extremely strictly constrained, but then that's often the case for inner-city gangs as well from how wild black market prices get.

There are indications that part of it is genetic factors regarding rebelliousness were eradicated by the history of rice paddy farming.

Not really, one of the underlying issues is that the area is a horribly fragmented clusterfuck of municipalities making it literally impossible to have urban planning for the overall metropolis.

Not everywhere. Mostly blue areas, in fact. Catastrophic backfire.

And the relevant infrastructure is exactly what Google is the nearest use-case for, hence completing searches in fractions of a second. Latency reduction at this point is mostly about signal processing clockspeed, motherboard bottlenecks, and directness of the physical wires. And there's so few...

It's already been tried with Stadia, the issue is that the fundamentals of the infrastructure have latency problems for gameplay purposes. There's netcode wizardry to disguise parts of it, but the time it takes for the control inputs to reach the server means pure server-side is going to be...

Of course, that's once the canonization settled a few centuries after the fact. With literary near-redundancy from a line of differing transcriptions in the Gospels of Mark, Matthew, and Luke, to much argument of exactly where the differences were drawn from.

By baking yellowcake, in the culinary sense.

Not according to NOAA or USGS. And the per volume intensity on the ground is negligible. The Carrington Event and 1989 Ontario blackout weren't caused by direct interference like an EMP, they were caused by the induction of telluric currents that compromised the circuit of the long-distance...

The Carrington Event wasn't an EMP, it was a geomagnetic storm. The reason for the damage is the flux over long distances without proper ground, which fucks up power management (and telegraphs) but down at the personal electronics scale is basically nothing.
