I know your question is retorical, but i think your point holds a dangerous truth: if other countries deserve access to nuclear weapons, the world likely ends up getting more nuclear weapons. Since there hasn't ever been anything so deterring as nuclear weapons, that might get us closer to world peace. But it might also not.

There was this study (not car related) on how well fines work, turns out if they are an absolute value (like in most cases) that is relatively low to ones wealth, a lot of people stop caring. Also, people are much more likely to break the law if they believe there is a high chance of getting away with it. So just having a sign might fix nothing, if the people to do not fear the penalty enough

Not really sure how to say this in english, but this case i'd say the problem in not only at the front-side (bad design) but also on the back-side (enforcing the rules). Rules that aren't enforced are merely suggestions.

Not sure what you mean, shows their relationship was not only about sex/intimacy and actually support my point?

Totally, but I don't think the people who'd fly to us are similar to the people who'd take a week-long train trip. Maybe the group who'd go to us nature reserves would stay closer to home. People going on a city trip to miami or new York for example would now maybe choose Tokyo or Rio de Janeiro. People who'd go to US for a camper road trip would go to Canada or SE Asia for example.

I bet if the male escort wasn't a male escort but a caring neighbour the family would still come for money, doesn't read like the nature of their relationship is a problem. They should be grateful for the escort that their aunt had company, considering how awful loneliness is.

That is definitely different. Kunde comes from the verb to can so it is more like ability I guess.

'familiarity with, knowledge of matters' (now mainly used as the right-hand part of compounds indicating a field of study or scientific discipline)''' and 'proficiency in a subject, science or in general'

In dutch you have beside natuurkunde (physics) and scheikunde (chemistry) also for example bestuurskunde (government) and bedrijskunde (business) so it in a lot of scientific disciplines, but putely the -kunde part better translates to knowledge of a skill (wij kunnen = we can), than science in general. I don't know Latin or ancient Greek but I guess it's the germanic counterpart of -logy in psychology and technology. In that case it could be like knowlogy, which sounds cool, but I am no expert.

The Pentagon has given U.S. Northern Command responsibility for U.S. military operations in and near Greenland after President Donald Trump expressed interest in acquiring the Danish territory.

Defending Greenland was previously the responsibility of U.S. European Command. But Greenland, an icy island in the High North between North America and Europe, will now fall under NORTHCOM.
