Well, I can agree with you on that. Having lived in Europe briefly, I am aware of the stupidity over here.

And the drug name itself seems like a parody almost as if it's really saying retard-itude.
Stupid is, as stupid does. Too bad all of the not stupid people are now in danger because of it.
I see it as more of seeing the writing on the wall that this regime is f***** over and f***** up, and trying to distance himself so he can remain relevant in some way. It's all about the grift.
So, revolution then?
Not conservative enough for him huh? Or it's not the correct version of the conservatism.
It is not peer to peer. You are connecting to somebody else's Wi-Fi router to get to the internet and you go through their ISP.
So, a very simple man in the middle of attack would to be put up other Wi-Fi connections that look legitimate but are in fact somebody's laptop hanging out in your location and now your communication is entirely visible, unless you're using a vpn.
Hackers are quite skilled at finding ways to get around TLS, and it is only a site specific interaction that is protected. Everything else is transparent.

I know almost all that is true. The ISP cannot see your traffic know where it's coming from or it's going to nor act as a man in the middle.
On public, unsecured networks, vpns block man in the middle attacks.
Basically vpns are not silver bullets. They cover a category of privacy and security. And one can do research to find out if they trust that VPN, while usually here in America we don't have much choice on our isp, and Verizon is one of the worst offenders along with Cox, Comcast, Charter.... Well, basically everybody.
How do you think they block bittorrent or send you copyright notices?
I personally do a whole bunch of other things on my side to deal with the problems that VPN doesn't: ad blockers, browser obfuscaters, Leak Detectors, Etc..
I don't understand what you are saying. For one thing, I'm not fretting about taxing the rich.
Yes, if no special cases are welritten into the law. Though there would be no way to outpace the tax as your wealth is being taxed not the money being added to the wealth.
Retirement accounts aren't really a great example because they're already supposed to be tax exempt or tax delayed. However the principle is the same. I just described what would happen to a emergency savings fund with a 20% wealth tax 8on another comment
Now, in reality no sane politician would put a blanket rule in. Instead it would be anything over x amount of money. While that may appeal to populism, it is still double taxation and an injustice.
A more just effect can be attained through better means, like actually enforcing progressive tax laws that take more taxes as the income gets progressively higher.
Here, progressive is not related to the political movement.

Are you sure that is what is happening? I doubt the utility is paying the solar supplier more than their stated price. That is not how Capitalism works over here.
