It’s the Financial Times. Taxes are a cancer for them.

Obama had started. But Trump reversed.

I hope you had a good sense of euphoria after that.

You’re right. I wrote it quickly while on the go.

My brother or sister, invest in index funds, not the stock market. And then forget about it for 30 years or more until you retire. And then, if you invest in index funds, there will be ups and downs.

The trick is to stay the course because it has been proven that the price will always go up from when you started investing. And then, in 30 years or more, you will have a substantial amount of money for retirement.

Rationally speaking, the whole purpose of sanctions is to sanction the whole population of the country in order to get the government of the country to change it’s policies.

The problem is that because of economic hardship and because this policy has changed the family culture in China, parents still do not want to have multiple children.

Understandable. As others said, they have a demographic decline.

Perhaps VPN servers in Brazil (I’m no lawyer) but people can choose to connect to servers outside the country.

I think the professor himself is fed up with the situation, because as a researcher he is forced to publish his articles to for-profit publishers, who are basically the mafia gatekeepers, who profit from information that should be open to everyone. And the university profits from this lucrative business.

Yes. I’m talking about the Talibans’ sick and perverse mind. The Talibans do not view women as human beings.

For the Taliban, women are sexual slaves whose sole purpose is to be baby making machines: they’re not human beings.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Everything is expensive now, housing, food, etc. How can you raise children in this era?
