This was the genius (or good luck) of Hamilton. Taking on the debts of the US states at the federal level prevented this problem when switching to a common currency at the formation of the US.

Which is crazy.... in the US, a developer from Nebraska is just as expensive as one from California for any given company. The location of the company dictates the wages ( costs of living), not the source of the developer.... (unless we’re

Printing money was alway the job of private banking in the US. Bank notes were used in the 19th century but sucked because podunk bank’s note wasn’t accepted in NYC...the federal reserve fixed that by centralizing all bank note creation to

Believe in it? Trusting FDIC is tantamount to trusting the full faith and credit of the US Government. If you don’t trust it what are you doing here?

I think the technology is needed because I don’t think we have the capacity as a culture to stop emissions fast enough. I am concerned that they are so focused on syngas because it just creates a cycle that doesn’t reduce the CO2 we have re

Full DNSSEC eliminates the need to have a trusted cert supplier. You can make your own very and the DNSSEC system will be able to validate you are you and not someone else in the system.

The whole system needs to be on DNSSEC to prevent hijacking. Just because you have a DNSSEC server doesn’t mean anything if the guy down the way can still be made to redirect traffic to a malicious site.

Changing the H1B visa to let holders change companies easily would be a good start at removing the pay disparity and incentive to not hire qualified US workers.
