Perspective on Bolivia

after 6 months what you charge is doubled

if I put 10 bucks I get 20

then if I charge 5Go for the month and I don't use them they add up to my next charge so they aren't lost

5Gb plus illimited WhatsApp is 7 dollars a month (really half that since they double what you charge once a month)

add a few not WhatsApp calls, I think I pay about 5 dollars a month for my phone

so overall I pay very little every month since I have no monthly subscription, and most of my calls and data are via Wifi

Crimea has been Russian for centuries. The vast majority of people there want to be part of Russia, which explains why your brave Ukrainians didn’t fight back during the annexation and there hasn’t been a militia like in Donetsk and Lugansk to fight ‘the oppressor’. Maybe they didn’t want to be burned alive by Nazi’s, like what happened in Odessa.

The baseball, basketball and new soccer stadiums are usually much smaller so can be more part of the city, some of the baseball stadiums are very historic (for US). Look at Cincinnati Ohio for examples along the River or Columbus Ohio for newly built stadiums close to city center that were built on an old prison ground (they don’t have NFL but a historic college football stadium).

You disagreed with my statement that most low wage workers wouldn't want most of their compensation as illiquid stocks because they don't have enough capital. You don't understand this because you are actually agreed with my assertion. You seem focused on ceos instead of the needs of the worker.

The only way to impact CEO compensation in a positive way would be to come up with better tax schemes for the ultra wealthy so that money can be used to help those who need it. Increasing minimum wage is better than trying to limit CEO compensation. It's more direct in trying to help those employees not making a livable wage.
