Probably won’t get anywhere if no one can agree on defintions.

Well there is obviously a reason they dont do it, or you would see them doing it. Its just finding the reasons why at this point.

I never tried to ride to work, but I guess the actual distance would be even longer than by cars, as bikes are not allowed on the highway.

Everyone hates tipping, but this won’t affect US tipping culture at all. Paying staff almost nothing and making them depend on tips is allowed by US law. As long as that doesnt change, businesses will always pay their staff as little as they can get away with.

Businesses here are not nice. If a waiter can’t make rent, then its time to fire them and hire another waiter. Which they can do because most states have at will employment. So you can fire anyone at any time, for any reason. No notice needed, and you dont have to pay them any compensation.

This is why its always interesting when people (especially from europe) think that not paying tips is going to cause some kind of transformation. We are a corporate country. If you dont go after the business owners, there will be no change.

They won’t pay a living wage. That is just wishful thinking. They will just replace staff that quit, and continue to pay them nothing.

Apart from Global Warming, what explains the crazy high temperature? No wind? Too many mountains blocking weather? Why is it so hot?

Well sleeping babies have a dramatically higher chance of sudden death above a certain temperature. So yeah, keep your newborns cool.

Well the average conservative is 50 years old, and the average liberal is 35 years old (in the USA). That alone can explain a higher death rate.

They should. How will the UN make them?

It should be common knowledge, at this point, that every single news source in the USA is owned by like 3 Billionaires. Its not a new network anymore, its a propaganda agency.

In this case, the CCP also provides massive subsidies to them. If they did not build in China, all the money would dry up

They would stop being cheap if that were the case. They are able to build competitively in China because of huge government support. Building Overseas, they would become just another car maker.

US Politics is so tiresome. No one can browse the internet without getting hammered over the head with it.

I don’t believe this at all. It is 100% the distance between things. Where I live, if I get on a bicycle, it will take 30 minutes to reach the nearest grocery store. If I wanted to ride it to work, it would probably take me 6 hours each way.

By car its 5 minutes, and 30 minutes in the high way. Cars are the only way to get around, and public transport is practically non existent.
