Agreed, Balaji is very smart but autonomous zones, special economic zones, free trade zones and charter city projects exist throughout the world and have for decades. Having worked on a few of these projects, I will say its often very difficult to get a buy in from both the federal and local governments around the world. Some of the most succesful of these zones are in China, and they are not run on the socialist model.

I remember these sorts of stories circa 2000’s... how are there still people who don’t check on this sort of stuff before they travel? And most phones allow for dual SIMs!!! I have found Googlefi to be the best service for traveling, you are allocated the same data plan as you have in the states abroad. This is solely for travel, you can’t remain abroad and use it... after 3 months they will throttle and then turn off roaming.

I’ve only ever gotten two flu jabs, years ago because a family member was ill. No reason to ever get one... take your vit d, zinc, magnesium and liposomal c daily and you will be fine.

I have explicit instructions as to where to leave any food delivery. Why would you need to greet them or open your door? Second question, is why would you appear wearing only a towel, to a stranger?

no... Arestovich has always spoken his mind a little too much, esp on his Telegram channel. He was Zelenskys right hand man, and then he called him dumb too many a time. The West is in control of Ukraine, theyd never back him.
I don’t use commercial salad dressings, so I’m not sure. If I’m at a restaurant, I go for oil and vinegar, and no croutons. In fact my go to dressing, is often sardines in olive oil to which I add lemon juice or cider vinegar. So who knows?

Well, in places like Palo Alto entrepreneurial minded individuals have purchased RV’s with no working motors and parked them on the side of roads in order to charge “rent.” I suppose, an RV park will move the vehicles off the streets lol

lol Europe is culturally christian, but no longer religious... and that has nothing to do with migrants and everything to do with govts supporting the churches and collecting the tithing.
I now live part time in Switzerland, and travel across Euroland... very few people still attend Sunday services.

in montgomery county MD muslim groups were specifically named as adversaries of the current lgbtq+ curriculum, so I don’t know why the article is saying they wont be named. The county made a statement that these kids would NOT be able to opt out. Clearing the way for further suits for religious freedom.

I mean this is surprising to no one... recently I wandered down the fruit juice aisle in a grocery store. I had no idea they were still pushing this crap on people, and then couldn’t figure out who was still buying this? Apparently “fruit juice” is part of WIC subsidies and food stamps. So unhealthy agra is just funded by the US govt.
Don’t drink your sugar... AND fruit juices are as bad as any soda.
