"When I'm flying, I put my helmet on, my visor down and my mask up. You don't know who I am. Whether I'm African-American, Asian-American, White, male or female ... you just know I'm an American Airman ... kicking your butt."

In 2023, OECD net average income tax was 24.9% USA: 24.2% Canada: 25.6% Ours is slightly higher. But with that 1.4%, we get imperfect universal health care. In US, medical debt (held by 41% of Americans) is #1 leading cause of bankruptcy. Much rarer in Canada, where 17.5% hold medical debt.

Let's support ALL the career prosecutors who are standing up to the corruption of Trump and his henchmen at the DOJ:

Exactly.

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.

And all of that ā€œwasted timeā€ learning adjacent background info was never wasted time.

As someone that worked on IE back in the day I endorse this message. šŸ˜‚
