It's South Fucking Dakota, who the fuck else is there to vote and to vote for? And he's a senior senator - he could just drop out and sit on his cushy retirement on his ranch (I'm assuming he has a ranch because, well, don't they all?)
It faces death at about the same rate as Facebook. Just like facebook, it has a huge database of information and a still-active userbase that just doesn't care that Spez is trash or that Reddit is wringing their content and eyeballs for money. It will still be around 20 years from now, just like aol email addresses.
Make sure you read to the end of that article. Nevalny himself (NPR interview, maybe?) admitted that he has courted the far right as well as the left in his bid to expose corruption within the Russian system and gain enough support to attempt to topple the Putin regime. He is unapologetic about it as he feels his intent (to clean up Russia and push for democracy) justifies his acceptance of all Russians as fellow countrymen. Like most people seeking power, his path is not pure and his antagonists will use that to poison any positive message he presents.
For a second there I though you were referring to Netanyahu.
I should clarify: the article makes no mention whatever about any politicians - not even Trump - thinks of Nevalny or his platform. Your comment is out in left field.
Don't even need that. Meta crosses multiple platforms now - Instagram, FB, WhatsApp, etc. All you need is for someone you know to have you in their contacts list, and the hit the "allow access" a single time. All of that data is then scraped, cataloged, and cross referenced with everyone else. Name, address, phone numbers, birthday, work address - anything your contact felt it convenient to add about you in their phone. From there it's just a matter of time until data mining of second and third level contact - or outright data leaks - fill in the rest of your profile and demographic information.
Not only that, but SP500 pays dividends practically every year, whereas gold costs money to store securely. $15M in SP500 would have netting something around $300k last year in dividends alone.
Their names are on the titles, they own the homes. Their banks - the mortgage lenders - hold a rights to a lien placed on the property, but they have no title to the property unless they enforce the terms of their lending contract in the event of default.
The owners making 500k may very well be just a few months from foreclosure if they lose their job, but they likely have at least 20% (likely much more unless they bought at a premium two years ago) equity and can probably salvage at least half - even after fees - if they were to become "destitute" and undertook a regular sale of the property. 10% of a million dollars (or more), for most of the country, is still a healthy sum of money.
That may be generally true, but they likely have a bunch of equity in their homes, and I'll bet their retirement accounts are generous. Sure, there are some who just spend everything, but most people at that level are already "hiding" as much money as they can from taxes.
At the risk of linking an un-cited web page, they look to be a distant 12th in gasoline.

The source is supposedly https://www.eia.gov/ but I can't find the original data there in any usable format.

To late now. Without an account there's no way to avert comment necromancy by reddit. It's why I kept my login; so I could clean up stragglers.

Sounds pretty presidential to me.

Oh yeah, my state has one boob on the flag and one in the Governor's mansion. Livin' the dream.
More of a boil situation. Nothing's getting golden brown and delicious in this scenario.

Does nobody proofread anything anymore? This amendment, well intended, sounds like it was written and distributed by a 6th grade civics class.
That brightens up my Thursday morning considerably.

In some industries, absolutely. In others, there are benefits to staying or there really is 10 years of growth potential.
"live paycheck to paycheck."
