There is absolutely no principled difference between youtube and cable channels that I can see; people are easily able to "switch to something else", as you say, in both cases. Or indeed, shut off their TV. Doubly so if we're talking long-form content like that in the Citizens United decision, as opposed to 30-second ad spots.

Why do you think that there is a difference here?

> But if countries with civil law can manage to make that work when it comes to respecting the spirit of the law

For what it's worth, said countries typically have nothing comparable to the constitutional free speech protections the US has, and have no problem with the government imposing all sorts of speech limits that would get laughed out of court in the US.

And as mentioned elsewhere in this thread, speech that is not "for" any particular candidate but "against" a particular candidate is not trivial to apportion in an "equal time" regime.

A lot of the reasons old structures and sculptures were painted was to highlight wealth. Most building materials were common wherever you used them, so you could imagine the marble mine used that led to the statue was probably not more than several hundred miles away.

The paint, however, may be very exotic. Certain colors and tones were infamous in the old world for being extremely expensive, be they hard to make or find, and often had to travel thousands of miles. When you painted your stuff, it was to show off that you were not only locally rich, but you had the connections internationally to get the really care stuff.

Not sure if that was the case with the Augustus statue in question, but it is common throughout Greek and Roman architecture.
Sure, but the idea that all of a sudden we aren't going to have MIT, Stanford, Caltech, Google, Facebook, and all these other world-class, leading institutions because of 4 years of Trump is nonsense. If we had 4 years of Trump for 5x as long, then yeah maybe it would start. But that's not going to happen.
Incredibly backwards compared to what? To France, sure. To the USA, probably. But if you will take Ottoman Empire or China, Russian Empire doesn't look that backwards.

Could certainly expect better outcome than the ragged, crumbling nation we have today. If not for communism which was a deeply unnatural state for a human being to live in.

You know, "national dignity" is often looked for by people when their regular dignity (family, job and standing in society) fails.

And then people can't really use it in healthy way. "They had fear of us", they say nostalgically. What's good in that? What about money, quality of life, freedom of movement for god's sake? What of that did Soviet Russia have? Even Warsaw Pact countries, even Soviet republic on outskirts (think Georgia) enjoyed more freedom, better quality of life and longer life expectancy.
To be fair, it's not that hard to make bad historical analogies.

I think the reason it seems so strange is because they do let some things be "public." There was a time when you could see zero content without being logged in to an account. I would prefer if Facebook were a 100% walled garden. It would make the usage more simple. But then Zuckerberg wouldn't have as much money, I suppose.

Google is murky too but they were coming from the 100% open side of things.

I never got my normal mileage up to 50/week, so consider this advice from someone that never ran as well as you do.

Some readers may not be runners so I will explain how I trained. I'm not that fast and didn't run in college. I was definitely a casual runner. I kept the mileage under control and that helped me avoid injuries.

It sounds like you train harder than I ever did, but I did qualify for and ran Boston. My training was the common seven month training regimen to prepare for a marathon: 3 weekday runs, say MWF, and one long weekend run each Sunday. By the second month I would add speed work at a track something like six 400m runs fast. The three weekday runs were around 3 miles each in the first month and might get up to 5 miles by the time I was ready for the marathon. The long run is basically increased in distance by one mile per week. After I hit 13 miles I would cut back to a long run ever other week, but increase the distance by 2 miles each run. In 26 weeks you was able to do a marathon distance in a long training run at an easy pace. I would work on my speed at the track and the short runs. I would not do any more really long runs once I was 3 weeks from the marathon. After the marathon I would take a few months off and then start again around 7 months in advance of the annual local marathon. By the fifth year I was fast enough to qualify for Boston.

So my training was almost all under 40/wk and more like 30/wk early in the season. Having lots of days off let my feet recover.

I found that always having two different brands of training shoes helped me avoid the overuse injuries that many of my training cohort seemed to experience. I would alternate shoes each day. This way my feet would at least get some break from the particular way the shoe flexed, etc. I would switch brands every so often--they all felt a bit different.

My body isn't ideal for running, so I really had to focus on form: very light footfalls, shorter more rapid strides and no overreaching to keep the wear and tear modest.

> The belief that the U.S. needs to be involved in the international stage

It's in the financial interests of the US to be involved on the international stage. I listened to Trump's speech today and heard nothing but "Boohoo, it's so hard to be America". The reality is that the US is the gorilla in every room - we have the largest economy, largest military, and American hegemony has been a massive benefit to the country. Countries bend over backwards to gain access to US markets and millions still aspire to move here looking for better opportunities.

The whole situation reminds me of a quote from Interstellar - "We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down and worry about our place in the dirt."

We've giving up our global leadership for the sake of a few extra dollars in our pocket now - never mind the cost of inaction or every bit of scientific evidence that tells us something must be done. Even the Department of Defense believes that climate change is real and will have significant consequences for the US.

When did American exceptionalism turn into "It's too hard so I'm going to do nothing"?

>The United States of America spent a hundred years building up a global leadership position. President Trump has effectively destroyed it in a mere four months.

I'm no Trump fan, but the slide in American global leadership has been underway since well before Trump. Probably the first big blow was our unilateral invasion of Iraq under Bush. But even under Obama we didn't exactly right the ship.

And while Clinton would have tried to restore our image, in the long run I don't think she would make a big difference.

Countries used to look to America as the leader of liberal globalism because there basically was no alternative. Now there's a few alternatives.

You're missing about three decades of right-wing propaganda. President Trump is the logical conclusion of The Rush Limbaugh Show, Fox News, and other assorted media.

These people systematically created a tribal political environment where facts don't matter, ridicule is the best argument, and Democrats are the enemy. They've been pounding this into the heads of any American who would listen since the late 1980s or so. Along comes Trump, who is the embodiment of all of these traits, and this extensive groundwork pays off. He's constantly wrong, but his voters have been trained to embrace that. He behaves terribly, but his voters have been trained that this is a good thing as long as the target is the left.

And of course denial of climate change, its negative consequences, and the merits of fighting it are one of the core pillars of this propaganda.

Add in the electoral college, which gives a substantial advantage to candidates who can win rural voters, and here we are.

Actually the VIN isn't the problem. The problem is either a malicious dealer with access to the Jeep replacement keys database in Mexico, or Jeep running an insecure database (which I doubt) that allowed the gang to connect and search the data they wanted.
And what is the reason for that? People who make more will pay more even with flat tax rate — such is the nature of linear functions. Progressive tax rates, on the other hand, are completely not rational — they are rooted in contempt ("they earn so much, why can't they pay a little more than low-earners?"), which leads to perceived (if not actual) unfairness and enables evasion.
Also, there's almost zero food waste (assuming you eat everything) as they provide ingredients in the amounts required by the recipe.
That would be a marginal tax rate.

Such would establish an income level above which it becomes more desirable to reduce one's taxable income rather than pursue additional income. Every additional euro would go to the state, plus a 2% fee for having the audacity to earn more money when you already earn too much.

Assuming there is a deduction for charitable contributions, that's when you direct your accountant to dump any unexpected windfalls into your favorite charity, so that you save that 2%. Or, more cynically, you might direct your company to reduce its dividend and spend some extra money on an executive retreat.

I can see how a 102% marginal rate might seem reasonable to an insane person. But I think the highest marginal rate you can charge without causing unexpected bizarre avoidance behaviors [that may spill over onto other people] is probably 50%.
The law departments of these companies probably couldn't care less, I agree. But I think such license addendum could have a very significant impact.

These companies employ people who generally have a warm heart for open source. These people have been contributing to open source projects themselves. So if part of the community starts disapproving their way of doing business, they will take note. And internal discussions will take place.

Further, if these companies misbehave, it hurts their image.

And a bad image among developers (both internal and external) is probably the last thing these companies want.

"Income tax rates have little effect on the already-wealthy because most of their money is not distributed in the form of a wage or salary; rather, it is stored in various types of financial vehicles that are already tax privileged."

The problem with this line of thought in it's current implemenation is that the top marginal income tax rates are very, very, very low in comparison to the "truly wealthy" people that you are referring to.

You only have to make (roughly) $400k[1] in the US to hit the very top federal bracket of 39%. That's hardly scrooge mcduck swimming in his bank vault. It's more like middle sized contractors, and (lower echelon) doctors and dentists.

So if you are a proponent of substituting income taxes with wealth taxes I would hope you are also a proponent of drastically raising the income brackets for very, very high tax rates to avoid hitting people that aren't "actually wealthy" (your definition).
