That's exactly how H1-Bs are setup in the US, but they just game the system.
A lot of tactics I've seen/heard are:
From the one episode I saw - yes.
Im personally very wary of getting invested in it cause I'm afraid it will just keep upping the ante without answering anything, but my friends who have watched it said that it does seem to have a direction and does actual address things.
Thanks for adding this, most people don't understand that flat taxes hurt poor people more.
Also, essentials for survival really shouldnt be taxed at all in my opinion.
Yeah, I was upset they didnt continue John Carter, it was just a fun zany scifi movie. I think it was the advertising that killed it, but if they had stuck with it I think it could have done well.
Yeah, especially since they are revoking visas and going after naturalized citizens. It's like they ran out of people to attack on day one.
If that's your kind of game, Unfinished Swan is another thats more plot based, but still has some fun puzzles. Doesn't get mentioned as frequently so usually one people haven't seen/played before.
Antichamber is another that feels similar. Although Antichamber doesn't really have a plot.
Yeah, I think it's actually envy with a side of pragmatism (he envies that everyone likes superman and wants that power, but also legitimately fears what a bad superman could do). But Xenophobic is just a funny way to phrase it.
I mean, it seems likely something is being covered up. In court it was alluded to that Maxwell wasn't just trafficking for Epstein. If that's the case, there were other clients and that info hasn't been released.
Largely because it's a bit valid to be concerned that the indestructible alien could decide he's bored serving the world and just take it over.
Xenophobic Lex is just a compelling villain, a bit like doom. Someone who has a sound reason for their actions, but usually takes really questionable routes.
So I ended up reading up on the original comics because I knew they were a bit darker than the cartoons. It seems shredder is only in volume 1 of 4. In it he's basically a New York Yakuza boss that kills splinters master. So splinter trains the turtles to kill shredder. After that he does get resurrected once, but after that he stays dead.
Volume 2 cover a full on battle with DARPA (for experimenting on aliens and turtles), Volume 3 has a possible daughter of shredder trying to get revenge, but volume 4 retcons volume 3 and focuses on a future where aliens come to earth and the turtles can roam the streets as "aliens" (which isn't that weird for the series as aliens first appear in volume 1).
So, yeah, it gets kinda weird.
Is that his BDSM name?
