People seem to have issues understanding the texts of laws.
It's only illegal if these 3 things aren't met.
- You got a counseling prior
- It's done by a physician
- It happens until week 12 after conception
I don't think these things are unreasonable at all
I went in to read the German law itself and it's basically only illegal if certain conditions aren't met and that is getting a counseling beforehand.
I think that's a bit of a far stretch and misleading to say it's illegal but rarely punished etc.
Also the headline is completely wrong, as it is already allowed to get an abortion up to week 12.
Here is the part of the legal text defining the requirements.
Section 218a Exemption from punishment for abortion
(1) The elements of the offence under section 218 are not deemed fulfilled if
1. the pregnant woman requests the termination of pregnancy and demonstrates to the physician by producing the certificate referred to in section 219 (2) sentence 2 that she obtained counselling at least three days prior to the procedure,
2. the termination is performed by a physician and
3. no more than 12 weeks have elapsed since conception.
But nature is also full of genitals that don't look like the genitals your thinking of
The reflexes of cats are insane and faster then a snake can bite. This video is a little demonstration for that
While I did misunderstood the goal of your comment, sry for that, it still holds some truth and might be applied concept wise to what you meant.
Refusing to pay taxes is, as much as refusing to vote politically, a refuse to participate. Why should someone get a say in something that they refuse to be a part of?
We are on the same side, even if it's not directly obvious. You showed that with you second point. By voting with you wallet for corporations that fulfill your values, you choose to give them more power over other corporations that don't.
The same concept applies to voting politically. You give your vote to a party that fulfills your values over a party that doesn't.
I the real world not paying taxes is not an option, as much as it's not an option to not spend any money on any corporation, if your part of the society. We are able to choose in a given context, that for sure has its limitations.
Let's say your not happy with the possible options that you can vote for, be it a financial or a political vote, you are free to fill the niche you think is missing. Start being active politically or economically and if there are more people that think like you and act according to this, things can change.
But if nobody does this, things will definitely move in the direction of the values from people that do the things above.
There is the famous phrase. "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
Great example how to not solve anything.
Stay delusional my friend
For whoever thinks not voting will be any form of good decision. Ask yourself this question.
How can someone distinguish a not vote because your fine with how things are from a not vote out of protest?
Thank you! It's so refreshing to see someone actually taking action and doing something.
That constant stream of fingerpointing with the expectation that others need to do it, is just the prime form of entitlement.
I hope people follow your role model and start really doing something!
That's the Standart in about every developed nation on this planet. I don't get it either what the USA is trying to accomplish there.
A thing that isn't obvious seeing that insanely inflated prices is, that these are prices for individuals and won't be payed by insurances. If you have let's say a 70k hospital bill, the insurance might just say we only pay you 8k. The hospital then takes the 8k and writes of the other 68k as a loss. This results in the hospital not earning any money on paper and they don't pay taxes.
My favorite thing to look at, when it comes to these inflated prices in USA Healthcare ae the prices of saline solution.
Have a read if you're interested.
Looking at history, Id rather say humans bring corruption regardless of the system we're using.
There was no time or system ever where corruption wasn't a thing.
The average ticket price for her tour 2023 was 1088$
Whoever pays prices like this is completely lost
"that one action" lol
She is basically the worst case of private jet usage and leading the list of such individuals, while somehow advocating for the environment.
This is just ridiculous.
And she is trying to fuck that guy up for "stalking" and "harassment", just for showing public data.
On top, for whatever reason, she had 2 private jets flying around until now. Seems like she sold one this month.
The thing your missing is, when you click only allow non essential, that means it's still 700 companies tracking you because of the great term "legitimate interest". That's the one you need to deactivate and this usually one by one as shown in this post.
So yeah, you're essentially allowing all the stuff the way you're doing it
The 120k went into the label, he pumped another million into her directly just for the first album.
btw I tried to find a trustfull source for the claim that it was only 120k. There are different numbers thrown around, while the 120k is the lowest. The source of that number is Wikipedia and the 2 linked "resources" for that don't mention it. One of the 2 resources is even an article that is not about Tailor Swift but rather one about some Tobey Keith instead.
I don't think it was disclosed. I couldn't find any proof about the amount.
She was 14 when "signing" the record label contract.
This is basically the moment where they used that load of money.And everyone who is thinking that she is a self-made anything is blind by choice.
Parents throwing Kids at that age into international careers make me at least sceptical about their motivation. That it seems to have worked out this time, doesn't change that at all.
Besides the insanely huge help she had on the beginning, the bigger part was for sure the knowledge transfer in terms of how to run a monetary wise successfull business.
And yes she is talented, I'm not saying she isn't. But the advantage she had, due to this, speak for itself.
Never said ultra rich and by any means someone who is able to take over a million out of their pocket to Kickstart anything is rich.
The reason is that her dad is quite rich and was a stock broker.
He invested heavily in the label that had his daughter under contract, being able to dictate what the label was focusing on and on top he has thrown another Million on her, to start the journey.
So to sum it up a huge tone of money, contacts and knowledge about how to run a business by her father.
Or that tumble dryers in the USA alone use more energy than Bitcoin.
