You're right. That's even worse. If ~100% of Republicans want him gone, that's all the more reason to keep him aboard.

I quite like the Taos, One of my friends has one and it's roomier than most other crossovers in that segment.

Remember that this was YOUR family's company. Family businesses writ large definitely don't have a good reputation as far as their non-relative workers are concerned. At least with a megacorporation you can expect some guardrails that will limit their abuses.

This does seem like a Tobi ideological thing, doesn't it? Ugh.

(sorry everyone else for going way off topic here)

The Tiguan is indeed nice! It drives pretty well and had enough cargo room to hold a bunch of musical instruments last time I needed to do that. It has gotten expensive, though. For my money I'd either buy a gently used one, or check out the Taos if you don't mind the slightly smaller size.

I'm no thermodynamics expert, but wouldn't this make your house warmer overall, unless the freezer is outside or in a garage/shed?

Agreed. I wonder how many of them have actually been to China. I have, and it's almost comically un-communist. Most western democracies have far more robust social supports, and I'd even say it's easier to have a worker-owned business in the west than in China.

Chinese reselling is the most profitable business model. Etsy is a public company and must choose the most profitable business model.

This is a definition of capitalism contrived by someone looking to dunk on capitalism at any cost. BMW could be "profitable" if they started flooding the market with $20k cars... for a while.

Yeah, it's turning into Amazon, flooded by resellers of cheap Chinese shit. That does far more harm to the Etsy brand.
