Demands?

How about a cap on executive pay? Maybe as some differential vs. the lowest paid employee. Call it 10×. If your lowest paid employee earns $50,000, nobody in the company can earn over $500,000 in total compensation.

A cap on wealth: anything over $1B in gross assets (including stocks, real estate, and other investments) is taxed at 100%. The revenue from this tax should be set aside to fund social safety net and small business development programs.

Now, with a large enough strike, the demands can get even broader:

All political campaigns must be funded by the national government. Each candidate who reaches some required threshold of support gets a grant. Individual donations may be accepted up to a defined cap, and business donations up to a separate cap. Each of these are publicly visible; business donations are individually listed, but individual donations are reported as a lump sum only. Donations must be kept in escrow accounts until the campaign officially accepts them. These caps can be set based on the 'size' of the election, given that a national election necessarily requires more resources than a local one.

All elections move to ranked choice.

You don't even have to passive voice it - a simple "I felt upset" is fully valid without assigning blame.

Have you looked into Ubiquiti equipment? They're generally pretty solid, and might have everything you need.

It still falls back onto the driver, as they chose to start driving without everyone buckled in.

Eh, at most you can say a plurality of those who voted when he was elected in 2020 checked the box by his name. We'll see whether this dipshit gets reelected.

Props for the perfect interrobang usage

I've always wondered, does the ear experience additional, unheard "loudness" when using ANC?

Doesn't happen with spacecraft either, despite what Hollywood often depicts. In order to 'stop' in space, you actually have to generate thrust. The scary thing that can happen if you lose your engine in space isn't getting stuck in one place, it's smashing into your destination at full speed.

I don't think the comment you're replying to was referring to shit as in fecal matter, but rather shit as in unknown potentially toxic substances.

Eh, kill off 3 or 4 billionaires per year and you'll counteract whatever additional environmental damage comes from millions of people not dying from malaria.
