I have studied various Christian religions and have liked the teachings of the Mormons (They currently prefer to be called “members of the restored church of Jesus christ”).

I generally try to abide by 3 Ne 11:29-30. I think my favorite scripture is 1 Ne 11:17 as it answers substantially all questions with faith and humility until you have time to properly study it out.

I am prone to talk about what I believe in a manner that I think gives respect all around like the epicurian paradox, the nicene creed, polygamy and judaism, etc.

I feel like I have a few strengths that I would love to share with those curious: my method to pray in a two-way conversation, my affinity for administration, and the “hiding in plain sight” cheats to be in control during persecution, dreams, and restrictive behavioral loops.

    If i had a vaccume and a carbon nanotube rotating such that the ends are moving at the speed of light, and another going the opposite direction (no net rotational inertia outside the device), I would have a dimensional anchor as moving it would cause spacetime to exceed the speed limit.

    Voila, I just created a sci-fi plot device

    If a transaction occurs for no consideration e.g. a gift, then there is always a chance for a progenitor to sue and claim rights as the transaction “never happened”. This happens when a company acquires another and tries to strip benefits, so the company fires and rehires all employees so that is the consideration. I have personally reviewed hundreds of land sales for 10$ in Texas so there is legally binding consideration exchanged. Functionally it is a legally bulletproof gift.


  • Not quite. Net income could be small due to paying nz drivers so the taxable amount may only be 7m. 1m taxes off of 7m seems higher.

    Also shifting income to another jurisdiction is considered “good management” by management. I hate it, but the rule is “if you can explain solid business logic in front of a judge with a straight face then the judge can’t find issue with it”. The law may be different in nz.

    Most parent companies in the usa have hq in the tiny state of Delaware and massive “rent” payments from the “subsidiaries that do all the actual business” to the parent. Many states get into agreements for waste management to be taken over by a private company and all profits go to the local government… and the local subsidiary never turns a “profit”. Sigh …
