This, and the rest of the generous things she did are why Dolly Parton wasn't a billionaire. If billionaires would just give a fraction of their wealth, they would still have more than they & their family could spend, and be loved by others.
Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, 558 U.S. 310 (2010), is a landmark decision of the United States Supreme Court about campaign finance law, in which the Court held that laws restricting the political spending of corporations and labor unions are inconsistent with the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Citizens United in a 5-4 decision, with Justice Anthony Kennedy writing the majority opinion. All Democratic-appointed justices dissented.
I am not a lawyer but as I understand the issue the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that money = speech, and since there is no point at which an authority can say "You've spoken long enough", there is no point at which an authority can say "You've spent enough."
In public city council meetings people do get arrested if they speak considerably longer than the allowed time limit.
Also, it's really hard to tell if a person is over 18 from one picture. He might have to shut that machine off if the law says he can't render people who aren't adults naked, even though there are plenty of people who are adults and don't want to be made naked by a machine.
I just searched "polymarket" in the U. S. and it came up with the correct site and a sign up button. I know I heard something about it on NPR a few weeks ago, so I'm pretty sure it's legal in the U. S.
I also want this on booty shorts and I want it on T-shirts and caps and mugs. OP is right. Getting it on Amazon might at least get the issue more recognition.
It's not hard for every idea to just work, when the idea is a variation of "Do something, anything, that benefits the population somewhat more than it benefits only billionaires."
I would actually like to see something like this for every major corporation. Make the CEO of Microsoft use Copilot and Outlook and Word on the lowest spec machine that Windows is technically rated for. Make the CEOs of HP and Dell use their lowest spec laptops. Make the CEO of Campbell's soup eat their cheapest soup for a week.
If they fail to accomplish the set task in a reasonable time, they go to jail and the company gets a major fine. My guess is that product quality improves rapidly.

I looked this up. It was a Hawker 400XP, worth about $2.4 million. Yes, it's a tiny jet.

From a cross post !technology@lemmy.world someone said that Behind the Bastards did 2 episodes on this case.

Works now! Logged in from Summit. Thank you for the quick fix.
I'm having the same issue. I didn't have a captcha when I signed in from the web client or Blorp.
I also want this on booty shorts and I want it on T-shirts and caps and mugs. OP is right. Getting it on Amazon might at least get the issue more recognition.

He was born in 1898. The idea of digitizing information didn't really exist, much less the jpeg standard. I'say his mother was very creative.
Those leave a verifiable paper trail, which makes them even harder to lose or forge.
The alternative of what?
I guess how, why or when are all good alternatives.
Oh, Thanks! I forgot how similar they are, especially at low resolution.
But why do the soldiers have Mexican flags on their uniforms?
Interstellar, Blorp, and Summit on Android can all use Piefed instances.
There's plenty of other stuff not to skimp on on an aircraft. The body, wings and engines all come to mind.
Well how else are the billionaires going to keep getting richer?
Don't forget the non-deported people who are kept in for profit jails with poor hygiene and food and no due process.
