    This is great advice. Is is also why pre-internet businesses asked for deposits to begin with. Assurances for the business and low risk for the customer. Both sides can see it as a sign of trust.

    Not everyone understands the instant torque thing. Just because it may seem like common sense to you does not mean other people were taught it like you were.

    Let's normalize it a bit more then. Nationalize Boeing. Especially because Airbus is already nationalized (continentalized?).

    I understand why we don't have downvotes here, but damn this comment is awful and should not be so high, and especially not listed as Exemplary. Comparing someone's deaths that might help cover-up...

    Comparing someone's deaths that might help cover-up for corporates crimes to a list of things that there is evidence that never happened (the clinton conspiracies) is irresponsible at best.

    The Red Cross keeps asking me for platelets and I am just not sure I can do it. I might give it a try this year.

    It is a shame that humanity can't be trusted to use nuclear power for commercial/civilian sea travel.

    I dream of a better world. One where on Feb 1st the IRS sends me a check or a bill based on their math. Then I can appeal it by filing my taxes or just accept their numbers and be done with it.
