<p>What you are describing is precisely the same situation I had when I lived in an apartment building <i>next to a long-term tenant</i>.<p>She simply didn't give a shit about the noise and trash she generated and all of us had to deal with it. The landlord didn't care either.<p>The police told me to deal with the landlord, because the noise wasn't at 3AM and wasn't "an event" like a concert. But her music was loud enough to shake my walls such that pictures fell off of them.<p>The town never returned phone calls. I simply vacated the apartment and told the landlord he would be more than welcome to sue me in court for the remainder of the lease.<p>Strangely, he never did, but I have a feeling that I would have had a hard time defending myself in court.<p>Though it is an unpopular opinion, I now feel that single family homes might be peferable to apartment buildings, if the caveat is that "the town and police will not do anything about anti-social behavior" as it is so rightfully called in the UK.</p>

<p>I agree, but what I think I mean is, whatever theyre making on my direct deposit (probably $10 a month in fees to my employer) is less than the 0.83% of xx,xxx in my checking :)<p>I would surely love 2% on my checking though! I thought 2% was on cash back, I will need to search for 2% checking with no restrictions somewhere</p>

<p>And it is entirely because the powers that be have rigged the market so that they can charge whatever they want.<p>How have they accomplished this? First, they set strict quotas on who can be a doctor. Then, they set strict quotas on who can offer what medical goods and products. Then, they strap everyone up with student and business debt.<p>I'm not saying it is the correct way or not, but there's a reason that in other countries you can buy over the counter things that you can't in the USA.</p>

<p>Highly agreed my friend. I have never ever been charged a single fee for anything by my credit union. I've been there for 10 years now. Aside from the money they make loaning out my deposits there, I don't think they've ever made a cent off me. They have a direct deposit from my employer, but they pay me 1% APY monthly and I am sure they're losing money on me in that regard,</p>

<p>hey nice!!! I really appreciate that info. Definitely a game changer then. I know a guy who was going to checks cashed, every week, paying those fees, cash under the mattress etc etc etc. If only he know Bluebird was around the corner! He eventually got approved at Ally</p>

<p>In the USA, not meeting minimum deposit requirements, having a bad credit history or trackrecord with banks, not paying monthly fees, and not knowing how to use a computer can all preclude someone from being able to qualify or use a bank account.<p>I've personally seen friends struggle with all of the above, but the reloadable AMEX cards at Walmart seem to be doing well to fill in the gaps (except for not being able to direct deposit into them)</p>

<p>Regardless of whether you believe Youtube FB and Twitter "should be allowed" to remove such videos from their platform, the reality is that some percentage of people will continue to use their computers to host and view these videos.<p>Whether that is on the clear web or dark web is debatable, but it would be impossible to fully censor any file 100% of the time.<p>And if it isn't on the internet, it'll be on the sneakernet.<p>EDIT: I wasn't arguing if it should be removed or not. I was stating my prediction about what I think will happen.<p>"Regardless of whether asteroids should be allowed to strike the Earth, they will continue to do so"</p>

<p>As someone who routinely had to hide from truant officers during high school, I turned out completely fine. My grades were bad at first, but shockingly, once I was allowed to sleep in until 10AM because my first 4 classes of the day were "study hall", I had straight As.<p>Ironically now I am self-employed because I refuse to compromise my schedule for anyone.</p>

<p>Does it have any choice? The official FAA incidents log has US pilots stating that the MAX is different to fly from normal 737s...<p>...and using their own words, is "unsafe!" to fly without additional training. It is unsafe to fly a plane with different layout and handling.</p>

<p>I am not sure of the current regulations but engine swapping in Sweden and other modifications were completely illegal since the 90s and basically what Americans consider to be normal and acceptable is flat out not allowed on the roads in Sweden by police or inspection authorities.<p>This means that 100% stock vehicles are in demand, and Volvo and Saab and BMW benefit heavily compared to a modified Jeep, which would make more sense for Sweden's enthusiasts</p>

<p>This is why junk yards and small businesses are a true blessing. I can pay someone $500 to put a $1000 engine into my car and get another 100,000 miles out of it, rather than "sorry that's not allowed, please go to the dealership and buy a new car".<p>In some countries, said behavior is literally illegal or impractical. Killing small business would be the death of capitalism and freedom.</p>
