I think taxes will get passed to the renters in this case. I remember in econ 101 that for inelastic goods (such as housing) there's a way to calculate how much of a tax will get passed to the consumer (i.e. Renter). The more inelastic the demand, the more the tax is paid by the consumer because they don't really have a choice. Raising taxes would probably just drive rents up and possibly make more people homeless or forced to choose worse living options (e.g. Domestic violence would likely increase).

Maybe this approach is meant to avoid this problem. It probably creates other problems though. But better shouldn't be the enemy of good. The problem needs to be solved because using real estate as investment vehicles is destroying the financial futures of young generations.

The same source shows that Biden is up 2% since the 3rd, and a bit more over the past 10 days.

Show Biden behind, but not down to 20%. Why lie about that?

We know repubs project, a lot, so does this mean that repubs are illegally voting in droves?

As long as they do not interact with any other particles then yes.

Remember, in the photon's frame of reference (i.e. It's point of view), time does not progress. So it is created and destroyed in the same moment. Any distance traveled for any amount of time in our reference frame, happens instantaneously for the photon.

Are you completing them quickly and correctly? If you are, that might be the issue.

Try making mistakes and then undoing them, as if you mis-clicked.

He's the Pope, he's literally the head of the world's largest group of people regularly practicing the lack of critical thinking.

Lizards are cold blooded though, would their pee be warm?

Yeah, good idea. This game take up a lot of time because it is amazing and there's soooo much to do.

If you like the dopamine hit from making something better, or fixing problems with a system, then you'll love this game.

I think there may also be a demo, but I don't know if that works on the steam deck. That's totally worth checking out, but set aside 4-8 hours for the first time you play it and I recommend setting an alarm to remind yourself to eat.

I think some people set speed run records on the steam deck. Obviously, the number of pixels is lower and the processor isn't as powerful as a desktop, so a megafactory might not work well, but should be fine for tinkering with a design.
