The MS security feature does work quite well (at least for Enterprise).

The one about printing a huge amount of money causing runaway price increases seems like it ended up pretty true.

This is the tough pill to swallow that everyone is indeed avoiding.

Yes, that's what I mean. The stated request was that trans people just want to be left alone. Most people would be happy to do that. I agree with you.

I think a lot of people would be happy to settle into this camp. Happy to oblige but allowed to keep their opinion without being villainized.

Seriously, I'm feeling really nice about where I'm living.

I don't understand how you're gonna have a good sense of community when you share 1sq mile with millions of others in a large city. What percentage of people can you even engage in friendly banter with? The community we have in our modest sized town is so amazing, my wife and I talk about how grateful we are to live here.

Our kids can walk to a dozen different houses where they can play. We are close enough with all those families that we could drop the kids with any of them if we needed to. There are tons of parks and great recreational sports activities to be outside.

I do respect others who choose to live all crammed on top of each other. I love the culture that big cities offer. I just couldn't live there, it's too impersonal.

We only block security threats. If people wanna fuck off and do nothing all day, that's an HR problem. ;)

Not wealthy nor in a wealthy area but I live in a pretty densely populated state so I just don't see it. Even convenience store jobs pay $18-20/hr here.

I've been working since 14 and that may have been the only year I made the minimum wage too. I don't generally look at this sort of data so thank you for sharing your anecdotes!

Yikes, hope things are better now! Thanks for sharing!

Understandable, I was mainly curious about the "large corporations" but it seems there are a few good examples provided. Thanks!

I tried to find a source on this because it's pretty disrespectful sounding but apparently it's complete hearsay.
