And cause damage to the other vehicle, potentially increasing your overall cost instead of just having some minor cosmetic damage.

In fairness though, Ohio as a whole seems to be fighting Wisconsin to be the Florida of the Midwest.

You want specifics on the ~50M active daily reddit users as a breakdown of exactly which accounts seem to not understand economics? But object to generalizations, and then ask for them?
edit - Huh, that's clever and kinda sad. Ask for more info and then block the person so they can't reply.

Well, since you're so civil and friendly, I'll explain.
If you actually took the time to read the comments from other people, and not just fixate on your entitlement to be spoon fed information, and had maybe passed even high school economics you would see that there are a lot of folks who dont understand how these things work, and are more than willing to spout innane things that make as much sense as playing chess with an asocial pigeon.

Sunshine, most "welfare" is federal tax dollars, and there isn't a federal sales tax.

I did. Do you usually use red herrings or are you a fan of making falicous arguments in general?
Did you know that center square is a rebranding of watchdog.org and affiliated with the state policy networks and is tied to anti-tax policies that have advocated for cutting military and social policy benefits?

Wow, so about 1% of their staff are on direct assistance? That's a lot of folks they're letting down.

As of last month they claim $14/hr (depends on location) but historically their employees take in something like $6B in direct assistance, not including subsidized programs.

Huh, they made more in profit than their employees take in on welfare. I guess they could afford to pay at least welfare level wages.

Reply to ELI5: Why are double-layer windows (not sure what it is called) not a common thing? by [deleted]
Insulated Glazing Units (IGU) are a thing where they make sense in terms of energy savings, and are often required by building code. They're less common in older buildings as we didn't used to be as energy conscious and their relative cost was higher.

Reply to comment by Scoobywagon in eli5 why is the age of a car determined by it's mileage by pulsebait
30,000 miles is only 120 miles a day driving on business days. Only driving 6 hours a day, that's an average of 20 MPH. Not too hard to keep it in town.
The general intent holds, but it's surprisingly easy to put alot of miles on.

Some states are no fault. Or you may have been in reverse making it all your fault in other places. Or it will probably give you or a passenger whiplash where the bumper may have absorbed the impact as intended.
