This! I want my structural engineer to understand the forces and do some hand calculations to verify the design. Someone who can crank a design through NASTRAN quickly, but lacks the ability to notice if the output is insane is going to slow the overall project down.
Concepts are key.

On the off chance that you’re just misinformed: The C02 you exhale contains carbon from the present-day carbon cycle, so it doesn’t change the atmospheric concentration. What matters is CO2 from carbon that hasn’t been in the air recently.

Is it integrity or is it them looking at the midterms and realizing that redistricting based on 2024 results is likely to end up helping the Ds?

After all, as Mr. Vedder says,
They don’t scurry when something bigger comes their way,
Don’t pack themselves together and run as one,
Don’t shit where they’re not supposed to,
Don’t take what’s not theirs.
They don’t compare.

I hear you! Really nobody should have to put up with local billionaires.
Maybe we can send them all to Mohammad Bin Salman’s ridiculous Line city and they can argue amongst themselves as to how to finish it!

As someone who has looked at what actually happens: No they won’t. Massachusetts recently implemented a tax on million dollar earners, and since then have had a net *increase* of people who owe it.

Not fleeing: New report shows more wealthy residents in Mass., 2 years into 'millionaire's tax'
