How do you know this is the US, rather than UK, AU, NZ or a British school in the EU?
EDIT: Looked at the original file linked here in the comments, and it makes reference to “HCPSS”, which according to a Google search means this is in Maryland. Your assumption seems to have been correct!
There’s also the issue that the US needs to sell bonds at higher and higher yields just to convince them it’s worth the risk.
As far as I understand it (not an economist), that might lead to a debt spiral.
Most USs in the iron don’t use dryers
Switzerland or Finland?
is it called Jewish or Jews in this case?
Jews. A thing can be Jewish, a group of people can be Jews. Another rule of thumb you can use is adjective vs noun.
There are plenty of anti-Israeli Jews. Don’t paint us all with the same brush.
Please don’t lump trademarks with the rest. Makers have stamped their goods with their mark since ancient times, both as advertising and to signify quality products (and not knockoffs). Swords were especially commonly marked with the smith’s trademark.
It was illegal to sell bread in ancient Rome without a trademark, for example. The punishments for doing so were harsh, as they wanted to be able to track down the baker if someone sold tainted bread.
In modern days, they’re useful for customers to know what company they’re buying from.
This is a time of crisis, and both the Squad specifically and the American progressive movement in general are letting a good crisis good to waste
What would you recommend they do? And how would they go about doing that within the strictures of a two-party system where one is fascist and the other is captured?
Messaging is important. While the Republicans are saying “There’s some temporary pain, but it’ll all sort itself out in the end. We just need to get through this transition, and the tarrifs and deportations will MAGA”, there needs to be a counter-argument.
They’re (thankfully) not preaching to the choir. They’re going to Republicans and independents and explaining in these rallies that there’s an oligarchy that has taken control, made them poorer, and it will get worse.
If they can convince enough people of the real causes, they have a broader base, and potentially even some new progressives.
Did anyone seriously expect it to be a real wall with Rober sitting in the driver’s seat?
I missed the mention of Verizon. Good catch!
