I always assume there's stuff going on that we just don't see, and in the case of this game at least there's certainly stuff going on beyond the sea.

Based on the article it sounds more like the tax in inherently volatile, with the number of people paying the tax remaining steady.

I mean, it would have been great for them to vet a request like this at all, but the best way to not release inappropriate information is to not have inappropriate information.

Sounds like you're just an introvert to me, that's pretty typical of introverts from what I've seen.

IIRC the reason military spending is so extreme is because the US military is required by law to have the paperwork to prove their entire supply chain is domestic, as part of a worst case readiness thing. Could be wrong though, not like I've really looked into it all that much.

All good, it's a really common mistake.

Please, anyone who reads this, stop posting links to the mobile version of Wikipedia. It doesn’t switch automatically on PC, and I see it happen all the time. Just take the half a second to remove the “.m” from the beginning of the link, save everyone else from the pain of having to be surprised by it and taking the time to do it themselves.

That's fair enough I guess, I suppose I was defining functional as protecting various rights that technically aren't necessary for an extant society. On the other hand, I very extremely doubt any of the self proclaimed libertarian anarcho-capitalists believe the actual end results of such a system are what would happen, nor would they want such a system to be the one they live under.

Yeah, american libertarians call themselves the wrong thing. The more correct term I find would be anarcho-capitalist, which is just all around a completely non-viable economic and governance system.

I think it means more dangerous to use, not more dangerous to be around.

Oh hey, I remember Mythbusters did a thing on that years ago, got a professional sniffer in who was almost consistently able to detect samples of fear sweat out of a lineup of sweat samples. So yeah, fear smell is absolutely a thing if you know what to sniff for.
