- Comment on Why don’t more people start profit-sharing companies or co-ops? 1 week ago:
No, they’re not different. If you’re creating a co-op - your partners are still shareholders and investors. The only difference is that co-op is private, but public company is… Well, public. But the end result is the same.

Thank god for that!
- Comment on Why don’t more people start profit-sharing companies or co-ops? 1 week ago:
That’s what public companies are. You buy their shares to help out with business and they share their profits. How much more of them do you want?

That’s only 25g protein per 100g of product. Beef jerky, which is full of veg by products, is 35-45g of protein per 100g. Bonito flakes are 80+g per 100g.
Continue eating carbs.

Nothing is like wheat flour for baking.

It’s just crispy when cooked properly. Do you like chips? French fries? Crispy pork? You’ll be at home!

You mean carbs.
- Comment on If billionaires and CEOs feel like they need to start paying for large security details, would that be an example of trickle down economics? 1 week ago:
That’s a great point! Let’s discuss it!
You see, regulations can be split into two categories: consumer protection and business protection.
Consumer protection policies and regulations protect consumers from business malpractice. For example, here in Europe we have 1-2 years (depending on the country) of warranty for every product sold enshrined in the law. And that’s something unheard of in the US, because communism or something.
On the other hand, business protection regulations protect existing businesses against competition. A good example is software patents: so common in the US, non existent in Europe.
Somehow when lobbyists are brainwashing American public to get more regulations, they’re talking about business protection and when they want to deregulate something they’re talking about removing consumer protections and American public makes the wrong choice every time.
Speaking of planes you can see this in Europe again: no competition regulations for air lines, yet strong consumer protections resulting in loads of air lines popping up all the time.

The problem with any deregulation theory is that deregulation does not exist. Especially in a country like US.

Finances are taught in all schools in the UK, but statistics show that the majority of people don’t remember shit and then make financial mistakes their whole life. And then they complain they’re poor, lol.
