  • Yes this is how sovereignty is maintained. This duality is why other members of the international community can refuse to follow ICC declarations one year and support the other years.

    The United States doesn’t release that control willingly. Others would have to make them if they feel it’s that important.

    Until someone can take that authority, they retain it.






  • Guys… in the SEC article, it breaks it down. He was paid a little under $400k

    The rest is all in stock and options grants. It’s not real money yet. It’s not money that could have been spent on things or profits that could have been realized.

    If the stock tanks like Lemmy users believe it will, it’ll be considerably lower compensation. This is typical for a CEO and not scumbaggy on its own. You typically want the CEOs compensation to be heavily impacted by company performance. This is how that’s achieved.




  • True~ish. Farmers get subsidies in general, not just ranchers. But this is also Hamburger we are talking about. If the meatless patties were to replace the steak in a steak sandwich, they’d be more comparable in “price for function” comparison. The meat in hamburger patties is recovery from more expensive cuts and is basically designed to be cheap while the meatless patties are specifically designed to replace them.

    It’s like building a small fence with pallet wood vs. what you’d buy at a lowes or something. Neither is gonna be priced at the premium of a boutique lumber mill or restaurant, but their inception doesn’t startvevenly.


  • We do. But on Halloween, we trade showing off our children in cute costumes for candy. And I mean… I also buy candy for the other kids.

    It’s a holiday.

    Teenagers in costumes are less cute.

    I’ll pass out candy to anyone who comes to the door, and I like offering to parents as well, but I judge parents that have a big bucket for themselves the same way I judge people that empty bowls at unattended houses. Just because it’s technically allowed doesn’t make it approved.
