They did not. They had radar, which was removed.

You should let her know so you can make your way into the next printing

Only two of what you mentioned are American brands, which is probably pretty relevant for a Senator to consider.

My personal thoughts are:

  • Close carried interest loop holes
  • Tax loans against unrealized gains on securities and physical property (excluding ones primary residence). You should not be able to take a billion dollar loan out to avoid capital gains taxes. I'm fine that this raises the basis for when the asset is sold. Well, someone do the math if there's a loophole this creates? But hopefully my intent is clear.
  • Social security and Medicare tax applies to all income. Shares granted as part of compensation should also have social taxes payable on grant.
  • Increase the tax brackets above the current max of 37% for income above $609k... Every 250kish above should increase by 2% until you reach 50% (about 2.5m)

That money should then be used for:

  • Increasing social security payouts
  • Expanding medicare access
  • Increasing the limits for the tax brackets on the progressive scale for incomes below 250k

To boost the bottom:

  • Stock buybacks are illegal except for the purposes of distributing stock to employees. This counts for executives but cannot exceed some multiple of their cash salary
  • 20% of money flagged as dividend payments to shareholders should be distributed to employees as profit sharing into their retirement account. There needs to be rules around the max differential between the highest and lowest disbursement.

"However, one of the 14 crew members on the Portuguese-flagged Solong cargo ship is missing, the vessel's owner Ernst Russ says."

The Solong.

The universe is trolling us.

Did that with star wars ep 7, 8, 9. Of course there was stuff I didn't love but I didn't walk away from the movie feeling robbed.

This is super duper protected political speech. So, no, it's not illegal.

But doesn't it though? Stabilizing it for transport saves lives in mining, but it also means it can be carried in the throes of war. Imagine lugging grenades filled with nitroglycerin instead of something stable. I can't verify the story, but it's a stretch to say it doesn't make sense.

The better point is your last, I don't think dynamite specifically was widely used.

This can also be the product of a stupid breeder selecting dogs with bad traits, and not the fault of the breed.

Knowing who you are buying from is important. This is relevant for any breed. I don't have an opinion on labradoodles specifically.

That said, shelter dogs all the way.

I thought the same, but some googling seems to suggest not

Nobody buys less stuff with a single day boycotts. They just shifted their purchases before or after.
