But that's a Federal violation, so not the same thing at all.

Not true at all. There's tons of adaptive pressure. If there weren't, we wouldn't see the thousands of pelagic and shorebird species that we do. But even if what you say about the threat from predation were true --its not-- there would still be adaptive pressure from differential reproduction rates and access to nutrients.
They're probably just "dumb" in comparison to corvids and parrots and the like.
Well obviously it's very difficult for the poor to leave and if you aren't poor it's actually a pretty nice place to live.
Also most of the loyalists in the colonies fled to Canada during and immediately after the American Revolution, for obvious reasons.
This. I entirely understand that some people don't have that option, but it's worth reiterating that if you have a choice, you're best off not to have partitions at all.
I run Mint on an 8-year-old Mac desktop machine with no partitions and it's lightning-fast for everything I need it to do.
It's also worth mentioning that I have said desktop machine because my wife is a pro photographer and Apple and Adobe have colluded for decades to create a kind of "planned obsolescence" whereby professional photographers are ostensibly locked out of the current industry standard unless they run a very recent version of Photoshop that by design isn't compatible with hardware architecture that's more than about 5-years-old.
None. My wife doesn't know about tact, or the polite white lie or anything like that. She doesn't have time for that bullshit. It's one of her endearing qualities.
If you have to ask....
It wasn't a price cap. It was about gouging during natural disasters like hurricanes.
And it was obvious that they'd already decided to invade Iraq long before Powell's infamous UN presentation.
What a crock of shit!
Why would capital willingly poison its workforce as a deliberate policy? That makes zero sense.
I can see capital writing it off as a necessary side-cost of doing business, but I can't see it as a deliberate policy.
Again, it makes no sense. Capital wants a relatively healthy workforce, not one that's falling apart due to lead-caused neurological decrepitude.
To be fair, they are hugely popular in both Canada and Mexico as well. I'll leave it to you to figure out why.
Hint; if marketing didn't work, it wouldn't be a multi-billion dollar industry.
