What's Google created in a garage? Seems like working from home works. 😜

I almost did myself, but then I looked up the term,and I realized that Linux is exactly that. For me, it's because I thought I knew what the term meant. I thought that it advocated for state owned software, because communism is all about state controlled property.

So, I was wrong.

I think that the government isn't moving aggressively on this file because if they did, there would be a massive correction and many landlords would go bankrupt. It would be political suicide.

I think what they are hoping for is that the correction will happen organically and gradually so that they are not blamed for the fallout and so that the impact is diminished. The problem is, I don't think that people can hold out and regardless, there will be some pain for all groups. The damage is already done, and fixing this will be painful.

Lol... you just proved my point. I never said it was a fact. It would be hard to quantify, but it could be done.

You're right. You just proved my point. It's my opinion. 😁

A large segment of the population don't understand the difference between a fact, an opinion, and a belief.

Yep... every time.

I think the real danger is Trump winning... or getting so close that the election is a toss-up... or very close to that. I worry that the results will be thrown into question and that will tear America apart.

What would you expect to happen when extreme right-wing, elitist messaging is encouraged from a self-absorbed, misogynistic lunatic.

Thanks Blackrock and Vanguard.

The Americans had better get really serious about saving their democracy because it's about to run off of a cliff. If Trump gets reelected, he's going to go after democrats HARD.

I don't believe this for one second. I haven't heard anything from the Ukraine administration that would suggest in any way that they are interested in peace talks. In fact, their recent choice of putting a Crimean Tatar as the Minister of Defence suggests that they are serious about taking Crimea back from Russia. I hear nothing but absolute resolve by both the Weat and Ukraine to keep fighting until a Ukraine victory.
